hi folks
this is the ultimate guide to solo chestrunning in nightfallen jahei hard mode!
ok, lets start
contents:
1. map
2. builds
3. gold/purple rate
4. amount of chests
5. video
6. credits
1. map
for maps:
red dot: chest location
blue line: path you walk
yellow stips: "hard" parts
the map here indicates "popular" spawning spots.
the map is pretty easy to understand, its a pretty easy run if you know what to do
2. builds
the build always has a few core skills, for this chestrun, you NEED the folowing:
-shadow form
-dash
-shadow of hasthe
-deadly paradox(speeds up the run)
-any form of healing(i use shadow refudge, you wont need healing that much)
-any 2nd speed boost(i use storm djins hasthe)
-anyting(i use deaths charge)
-anyting(i use shadow of hasthe)
in the 2nd speed boost slot, put anyting in so you can keep your speed boost on all the time
gold/purple rate
i gave the maps a number, and noticed how many times the chest spawned, and more data. you can see the numbers on this map below
(Each X = 1 time)
01 xxxx
02 xxxxx
03 xxxxxxxxxx
04 xxx
05 xxxxx
06 xxxx (while running whit guildies, i noticed this is an extra chest that does almost always spawn when the quest: only come out at night is active
07 xxxxxx
08 xxxxxxxxxxx
09 xxxxxxx
10 xxxxxxx
11 xxxxxxxxx
12 xx
13 xx
14 xxxxxxxxxxxxx
15 xxxxxxxx
gold:87
purple:26
tome: 7
elite tome: 6
this means roughly 75% of drops are gold, 15% is purple, and 10% is a tome
amount of chests per run. (Each X = 1 time)
0
1
2 xx
3 xxxxxxxx
4 xxxxxxxxx
5 xxxx
6
this means most of the runs you will meet 3-4 chests
5. video
coming soon

Good guide, and as far as i'm concerned this is one of the best places to chest run for loot/ease. For all those warriors out there i use a really basic W/A build when i do this....
sprint
enraged charge
shadow form
shadow of haste
feigned neutrality
healing signet
endure pain
signet of stamina
same method as above, and works just as well.

nice guide; short and sweet.
Nice job on the stats too, that really is a big thing to think about when chest running

rare drops? ele swords?

You can run this area with any secondary sin. Actually mostly any area can be r chest ran with a secondary sin. So that is also a very good benefit for having a sin.

this is also the same path that our guild takes to LB point farm, hitting all the bosses, and groups you get bounties for is around 1.64k lb points (was 3.3k durring double point weekend) for about 28 min runs.

How many lockpicks would you bring with you? 15? Or do some of these chests not always spawn?

I checked this run and i can only say Big THX. I made only about 40 chests, but running only from 5 to 15, starting from outpost not gate as you. My drop rate:
4 Elite tomes ( 2 ele, 2 ritu)
3 non elite tomes
6 purple
27 golds --> req. 11 rare skin fire staff, Fiery Dragon sword req 9,2x Fiery Bladed Axe r10 and 13, 1 sup. Vigor, and many perf ups and ins ( +30 hp spear,bow; 20/20 bow, 3x 15^50, 2 x 5e^50, 4 x Guided by Faith and more)
Generally after selling all and keeping one axe I'm + 100k and got 10 lockpick waiting for more
Biggest suprise : Wooden Shield purple 15 A req 12 +14 hp ^^
Used in total 31 lockpicks with chance 13% but tommorow will have 16 %

Can you please write down the stats you use in each att on your ele?
Also, why (or how...) are you using Shadow of Haste twice?

no damage tank
dude, this is so annoying to read, the amount of typos, but nice guide nonetheless.
btw, hasthe is spelled haste, and shadow refudge is shadow refuge

as meat shield will be unable to make a thread can someone else give it a go?
also anybody tried it with a mo/r running build or mo/a build, i wanted to know if that worked well their.

Love the guide, I used my running dervish for this and I died a couple of times which was expected. I got a req 9 gold pronged spear with perfect vamp mod, a purple hammer and a...
...REQ 9 FLAME ARTIFACT (Eye Skin)

I must be doing something wrong, with 33% faster running I still can't shake any mobs, maybe I need to activate my runs sooner.
Dronte
I got owned at the 1st and 2nd hard part with warrior lol ^^
Any ideas?

This run can be done with any char. I do it with necro using only assa skills. After about 180 chests its started to be boring specially that i hate trade and mosty drops are ins and modes. Also chest running can be source of profit IMO few day more. Depends what skins we would be able to unlock or gain for winning in Tours, but in worst case scenario it can drasticlly influence market.
To get ride of mobs use Dash->Dark Escape-> Dash ( as soon as its recharged) . It works in 80%.
update of drops:
2 elite Monk and 2 elite ritu
2 non elite tomes
fellblade req 9 purple
4 15^50
7 5e^50
+30 hp for focus, spear, bow
few nice ins for focuses
Vamp for bow, spear, sword
i noticed ( maybe i have like that only) that drop make some kind of scheme. Generally i got elite tome every 10-14 chests but have to make them in row.
It looks like nice place to make Wisdom and Treasure hunter titles because its easy to stay on 0, but need luck to have profit.
What you think to run this map on norm ? Drop rate will be different but chanse of getting lockpick back much higher ( basic 35%)

Incredibly difficult to read and understand. I suppose its a starting point, but I think I am going to get used to the run and maybe I can understand what this guy is talking about and rewrite the guide.
Ravensky
awesome guide. bunch of golds, 2 elite tomes, bunch of grapes too...
but the best part: a req13 elemental sword
