One of my worst chest drops so far.
The Paragon tomes could be useful on my PvE ranger since I dont have a paragon.

I might just save up to 20 keys instead of like 5 per trip even though a previous run I did that didnt bother posting I got gold items....but were crap.

There are no "rare" items, they were just a lie made up by Gaile to get people to use the chest.

gratz on the Everlasting...hope we can be lucky enough for another confirmation on it...see how the drop rate is...lol

Today's notables:

Coincidentally(spelt it right?) my 1st pic is a lil tonic drop humour, where I used 3 keys and they came out simultaneously:


2nd pic: Who says High req items are bad?


3rd pic:


Just wanted a confirmation that this is a "already seen" HAND axe skin, I think ive seen it before, but wasnt sure. friend suggested the canthan one. wiki didt have it. so /probably.

/hunts for the everlasting beetlejuice tonic.

There are some strange comments wedged in amongst the normal conversation here. Let me explain: Andrew and I were both told about very-rare and very-valuable drops in the Zaishen Chest, and we relayed that news (without details) to the players. Those very-rare drops have come to pass, as we all know.

Now, we won't be revealing the details about the items, because all of us on the Guild Wars Team want to preserve the fun of discovery and because those of us on the Community Team (wisely, I think) did not ask for a list of such items. I honestly can't comment on the Everlasting Roller Beetle Tonic, although I believe it is very likely to be genuine, especially because of the way it's portrayed in the screenshot.

What I want to say is: No one on my team "told lies to get people to use the chests" and no one on my team would do so. I'd like to lay that one to rest, right here and right now.

Thanks for reading.

You can sell that Stygian Reaver (assuming its inscribable) for more than 75k, Id say 100k, maybe more.

i Think the best is to accumulate keys and then open the chest all at once....giving you a more randomize drops...

With 30 keys i got 10golds a few tomes a lockpick and severall cremes and flasks.

1/3drops in golds

Got a rather disappointing Flask of Firewater, best scuttle back to AB for some fun.

Hoping it doesnt take another 50 odd pages for another "ultra rare" item to show up.

Thank you Gaile. I was slowing up my Guild Wars play a lot cause i was getting rather board. I spent about 300k+ or so trying at the chest hoping for something rare. Now knowing there is something rare in the Zaishen chest makes farming and playing fun for me again.

Dont ask me why, but i love rarity in the game. I greatly enjoyed trying to get that darnable mini polar bear. I can try another 300k+ at the chest and see what pops loose.
