This may be the wrong board to be posting this:

If you were able to make it to Sorrow's furnace (Hard Mode) and open the unlocked chests, would they drop gold items? I've been trying this but have had no luck making it down to SF with my dervish or 55 and figured it would save me some time if someone on guru knew the answer.

Thanks.

Thanks to all the guru [mods]

Unlocked Quest Chests do not give gold items.

It would only make sense for the chests to have golds, since it's so difficult to even make a successful run down there. We don't really know until someone that has done it multiple times speaks up here.

What needs to occur rather then "hearing from" is getting at least three different screenshots from three different players in order to confirm/deny such.

These screenshots should include EACH of the three chests that are avaiable during this quest, and should also include the Hard Mode icon in the top left corner (default spot) of your screen.

Yeah that's the only sure way of knowing. Even if they did drop golds, the people that know they do are probably smarter to not tell anyone about it.

I've done this quest several times in HM and only gotten purples and on average 2 - 3 per chest.

Also if anyone has gotten golds in unlocked chests in UW or FoW, please add in... because I believe all 3 of these areas drop the same rares.

Nope nothing lower than req 9 dropped. Only difference I noticed was less items like I stated.

SF is henchable. Just flag your heroes out when you opening the chests.

Ive henched my way through the Kilroy quest in HM around a dozen times now just to test the rumors I have heard about golds dropping. All grapes, 76 delicious grapes.

The stats on the drops dont appear any better either. Might as well go through twice as fast in normal mode if you ask me.

After testing earlier, no gold yet.

No golds yet. Will do another 30 runs later.
