Chest running:hells or sledge/marthans

Hi,I am taking my war into chest running. I was looking for a run with cheap keys ,a good gold drop rate and chance on rare skins,and i found these to be most fitting.anyone has an idea which of those is the most profitable?

Vabbi Chest Runs are probably the easiest for a 600 gold key (atleast that what it seems to me).

Otherwise Southern Shiverspeaks?

I don't know much about Cantha since I am stuck at the 2 party mission.

prophecies--not really worth chest running in my opinion. i would only run darkstone chests in the fire islands, but those keys are 1.5k i think.

factions--kurzick chests (600g), luxon chests (600g) and forbidden chests (750g i think)

nightfall--best place to chest run in my opinion--vabbian chests (600g), ancient elonian chests (600g) and margonite chests (750g). i run only margonite and ancient elonian chests because they both drop very good things and both have a chance to drop an elemental sword. after about 2 days of running margonites i had an elemental sword drop for me which i sold for 400k. not to mention the ridiculous amounts of mods and inscriptions.

I've only done chest runs with ancient elonian keys in poisoned outcrops, made 200k+ from a sephis axe that dropped.

probably gonna hit up the margonite chests eventually, if I find the time.

You can get wicked drops from Margonite Chests, like Eternal Shields/Bows, Storm Bows, Ghostly Staves, Crude Axes, Fellblades, etc etc. Ancient Chests also have good drops.

I did some Ancient Elonians today, just to see the locations. Bad bad drops.

On the same note, are there maps available with possible places of where locked chests appear?

The general rule with chest running is you get bad drops most of the time, but those few lucky drops are what makes it worthwhile. Once you get that gold req 9 Eternal Shield, it makes up for all the purple nonmax Blazing Wing Wands and Butterfly Mirrors.

true true.
Are there chest running Warrior builds online anywhere?

check the wiki.

E/A owns chest running though.

anyone got any routes for the ancient elonian/ margonite routes they take?
