AKA think of your own using one of those secondaries.

i don't normally chest run, but i noticed a lot of easy chests at ice cliff chasms in eye of the north. see attachment.
shadow form or spellbreaker is recommended (snares), and something to counter knockdowns (signet of judgement).
yellow dots = common chest locations
blue dots = less common/possible chest locations

Could anyone tell me about an effective chest run for onyx gemstones in GWEN? I know it's from dungeons but I have no clue which one is the best when you compare speed/run and #chests/run... If build matters I am playing an ele.

Well, perhaps I could do my share to the thread. A chestrun build I used nearly a year ago in Melandru's Hope.
Build:
Mo/A
12+1+1(I used minor, you can use major/superior) Divine favor
12 Shadow
Skills:
Dash
Dark Escape
Shadow Of Haste
Mending Touch
Spell Breaker
Holy Veil
Contemplation of Purity
Feigned Neutrality
You can maybe use shadowform too, i just were happy with SB + Kephkets refuge with +20% enchants and 20% faster recharge. Also totemaxe or any +20% enchant works well with SB.
So, run happens in Melandru's Hope, you leave from Jade Flats (Kurzick) and this run is for NM Aka normalmode.
I runned with dash + dark escape just straight and down the stairs, I will provide a map later. Check if there is chests on rit boss, if there is use shadow of haste and spell breaker, go to chest, open, pick loot and dash away.
Continue running in the water to the assasin boss and if there is chest, rinse and repeat what you did on rit boss.
Then you continue to the dredge area, up the hill look for any chests and open them, those are pretty easy ones. On the dredge area I suggest to not use SoH because they use wild blow.
Continue running thru dredge areas (check map later for 100% info) and then over the bridge and pass the byzzr wingmender and other mobs. The run ends at the dredge corner.
There are at maximum 5 chests in the area. Most times 5, sometimes only 4 or even 3. Good drops are single & dual gothic axes, gothic defenders and gothic swords and some amber rubbish etc.

Get a hero and Arcane Mimicry for overkill.

Hi!My new running build using GW:EN skills:
A/R
Deadly Paradox
Shadow Form
Death's Charge(can be replaced depending on the area you are running)
Shadow Refuge
Dwarven Stability(if rank 5 or higher or your energy wont support it)(Dwarf skill)
Natural Stride
Dash
Shadow of haste(good for when chests are off-way)
ATT:
Shadow Arts : 12+1+3(16)
Wilderness Survival : 12
Deadly Paradox : 3(no need to add minor rune)
Set:any staff with +20%enchantments , insightful +5 head , hale and hearthy inscription
I use this mainly on Poisoned Outcrops but works everywhere.Used it alot to go exploring and reaching Outposts/towns.
If your experiencing lots of Knockdowns just take out Death's Charge and put "I am Unstoppable"(Norn Skill) in.
BTW I wasnt clear enough,this build can be used and was tested exhautingly on:
-Boreas Seabed(luxon chests) NM and HM
-Poisoned outcrops(ancient elona chests) NM and HM
-Ring of fire(dark root(?!?) chests) NM , not tested HM
-Hell's Precipice (dark root (?!?) chests) NM , cant be used on HM but still need to test more,just gave it a few tries
Hope it helped all sin runners out there since sin FTW on CR

Problem is , imo , that the lack of shadow form or spell breaker will render the build useless.
the fire hunter
Anyone that has tested that EotN chest run, can you say if there are any good drops that you have gotten? Also, which place is the best to chest run?
onerabbit
Best item ive go from gwen chest was a req12 serpent axe -.- PURPLE .. as usual.
Diddy bow
For Gwen it seems to be purple=retain gold=break for me, which isnt all bad .
Best from gwen i got was a req 9 greater jagged reaver

Celestial and Salient daggers come from chest in amongst the Vermin in Xaquang Skyway. See this post:
http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...4&postcount=77
Oni Daggers also come from Luxon and Kurzick chests as well as Raisu 'Forbidden' chests.

Dash > Pious Haste > Dash > Pious Haste
Seriously.
I did a mathematical analysis of all the available movement increase skills to determine the most efficient combination... and that was it. It removes any enchants you might have one by one though, so won't hold too well with Shadow Form.
If you want a REALLY fun time running though.... down a Spiked Eggnog then activate Dwarven Stability and Drunken Master at highest possible dwarven rank..... I'm planning on trying the Droks run with those two (and other skills of course) soon... ^_^

I don't chest run on my sin because she's not my titleRED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO, but if you want plagueborns, start from Dragon's Throat and run through Shadow's Passage to Bukdek to reset the chest spawn. Only one chest spawns in hardmode every time. My experiences show it's about 70-30 chance it spawns with the afflicted compared to the jade brotherhood. I mentioned my sin because I'm pretty sure you can perma SF the run, unlike my titleRED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO warrior. I hope this helps someone out there.
Red engine = w hoore

FrAnt1c??

If some one could please post a NM or HM Hells Precipice or Ring of Fire for W/X that would be awesome. I have r7 Delver if that helps, but dont have Dwarven Stability or Great Dwarf Armor.
Thanks

OK, I'm a little bit curious...
Is there a way of solo running (In hard mode) Melandru's hope? According to a post someone else made, it's better to go in groups, but I think most people there are trying to do FFF, so I would be the only one... I cannot use the build posted on the previous page because my Monk hasn't gone that far yet....
Right now I have my Ele, Rit, Sin that far in the game.
EDIT: Ignore, finally bothered with playing my Monk that far

Did anyone found any fast* runs in GWEN. I just need them for title, so I don't care all that much for loot. The best I've found so far is from Tarnished Haven, running south then east but I only get about 25-30/h.
*) by fast I'm thinking like 40 chests/hour or more.

What build are you doing with Tarnished Haven? And are you doing it in HM or NM?
XiaoTheBlade
Nahpui 55 got nerfed recently 
Was workin fine until a few days ago, think they changed the skills the star lights use in hard mode, you now die in 1 hit through life stealing from nightmare weapon.

any good places with nice good in GWEN for HM lockpicking?
Nemo the Capitalist
i thought chest runners died out
Choc
No, chest runners haven't died out.. we've just gone a little quiet with posting our GW:EN run spots due to the ability to still make some cash off of them.
As for GW:EN HM locations to run.. there's at least 4 good ones that I can think off right off (I'll let you know them when GW2 comes out).

So what are some fast chest running places on HM in EotN?
AscalonWarrior
Try the snowmen lair. Not sure if it makes any difference if you do it in HM, but NM would be faster.
Oh yeah, go there with henchies, x4 fire eles should do it
