Still nothing so good starsky too bad maybe last run and you get everlasting beetle tonic and sell it and buy zkeys!
Starsky-sama
yup. ive already got some good (and better) stuff before I saved up the keys. so it's all good. 
My theory is Ive gotten better items from doing smaller key runs than bigger than 20 key runs...prob just me/my characs. /endtheory
the thing I really want to see someone post is something other than an everlasting beetle juice tonic...now that would be awesome.

Well, I think these are the final keys from the 800+keys I collected
just a starter sample of small keys runs ive done (each snippet is a 2-6key run)
nothing big, but just notables (again these are separately dropped items from separate runs)
r9 bramble hornbow inscrib
r9 sai daggs inscrib
r10 stormbow inscrib
r9 katana inscrib w/ 20/20sunder
r11 grinning dragon axe inscrib (didnt think id see this here)
r11 soulreap shadow staff inscrib
suntouched shield inscrib w/ +30hp
r9 e-stor plat staff inscrib
r10 gothic dual axe inscrib
**main difference here vs the big key runs, is at least each run if there was something good enough, the run paid for itself and more.
**with my bigger runs, it was close or not as likely.
**pretty much confirms for my characters:
-1st time I started doing Z chests (before the massive key amount I collected), Ive gotten multiple stygian reavers, shinobis, runic swords, a chaos axe, which were from small amount key runs no bigger than 6 keys at a time.
-then this 30-50 key runs, did get good/new skins that came out the 1st time for me, but were not as rare/hard to get in the chest.(imo)
-and now started doing small key runs again, comparably better ratio, if you're going by money-wise. (good thing im not lol)
**id definitely like to see someone post the opposite of my theory, that they get better drops from bigger key runs than smaller key runs.(on a regular basis)
Happy to say I'm still alive/kicking for the hunt though, still got time/plat/items to sell before my planned retirement, started an 80+ key stack atm, so we'll see what happens to those when I hit 100. lol

I've used 250 keys to date. The first 100 were done in groups of 5. The last 150 were done in groups of 25.
Here were the general observations:
- Opening the chest in groups of 5 versus 25 didn't matter. There were 5 groupings that comprised nothing but consumables; there were 5 groupings that were mostly rare items. In the same respect, some 25 groupings were up to 64% golds; other 25 groupings were up to 68% consumables. The ratios for the first 100 versus the last 250 are roughly identical.
- Your chances of finding anything of real value are fairly bad. The majority of skins that drop are super common; if you want cash, you're absolutely better off selling the Zaishen keys for 2.5k to 3k, barring a Crystalline Sword skewing your results.
- The Zaishen Chest can drop imperfect damage weapons. I also have an alliance mate who apparently found a non-inscriptible Pyroclastic from the chest, but of the 72 rares found so far, all of mine were inscriptible.
The to-date totals:
Creme Brulee: 55 (22%)
Flask of Firewater: 82 (32.8%)
Beetle Juice Tonic: 3 (1.2%)
Transmogrifier Tonic: 5 (2%)
Yuletide Tonic: 3 (1.2%)
Non-Elite Tome: 19 (7.6%)
Elite Tome: 7 (2.8%)
Lockpicks: 4 (1.6%)
Rare: 72 (28.8%)
Total: 250
I do not know if any of these drops are grouped together.
There have only been four notable drops:
Amethyst Aegis (Command) Q11
Amethyst Aegis (Motivation) Q12
Gloom Shield (Strength) Q9
Pyroclastic Axe Q10
There were three semi notable drops:
Stormbow Q12, 14-28 DMG
Gothic Sword, Q10
War Hammer, Q12 (Ascalon Maul Skin)
Hope you find this interesting.

FYI, you have the %s wrong on your smaller drop totals. everything you list at >1% should be multiplied by 100 for the percent.

1st group:

And, yes, z-chest drops nonmax weapons. It seems that its mostly bows whose min-damage is one point off.

As I understand it, no inscription slot, no mod. But I'll ask again.
Moria: you're right, I'll fix that.

I think someone said this before: you're screwed if you see a nice weapon drop with a Deathbane suffix on it, it pretty much means no inscription slot. I've had it twice now, of which one on a req9 Broadsword and one on a req9 Storm Bow

YEah in all campaings non inscriables drop. if you faind gold item in nf without any dmg mod it doesnt even have slot for it..

im startign to think anet nerfed the drop rate for good rares to stabilize the prices, such as when the first week lots of eternal blades were dropping. either that or less ppl open the chest.

I dont think thats true, Im getting things with Deathbane out of the chest and they still have inscription slots. But I am getting quite irritated that Deathbane seems to be the only vs. one I get from Zaishen drops or GW:EN drops.
As for decent skins I have gotten out now: mursaat hammer, gothic dual axe, amethyst aegis, crenellated, broadsword, celestial shield, glooms (tact and strength), platinum staffs. The good skins tend to be low req, the more standard skins tend to be 13s.
