really?
well it's alright but finding sellers is a pain
you'll have a easier time finding sellers in HzH or Cavalon but it really depends on the alliance members if they like reselling keys to gain a profit tho

I´ve started with Shiverpeak, but the drops were bad, i´ve been having better luck in kurkiz areas.

I agree the drops were bad and besides it is harder to even find sellers for those keys unless those sellers who troll farming IMHO boring

Yeah unfortunately for this title, the cheapest keys you can buy are the ones that cost 600 gold, such as the Shiverpeak, Kurzick, and Luxon Keys. All the chests whose keys cost that much or above count for the treasure hunter titles, but none of the lesser ones do.

Alternate among Kurzick/Luxon/Forbidden, imo. All runnable solo or in groups.

If it costs 600g or more, it'll count towards the title.

If your alliance holds a town, the cheapest way to get keys is at the merchant in that town. You'll get a discount.

Exactly. So the cheapest keys to help with the title are 480g each if your alliance owns a town in Factions. If not, you can probably buy them for 500g from someone in a controlling alliance. Otherwise, it's 600g per.

Actually, the Elonian Keys do count towards your title, as long as you open a chest with a gold item inside.

elonian chests have never dropped any gold items

keys that count

shiverpeak
miner
kurzik
luxon
forbidden
uw keys
fow keys

if money is an issue this isnt really a title for you..1) getting all 5200? will cost millions 2) i doubt you will break even, im currently maybe 100k up

Also Darkstone Keys. If you want keys cheap,in Phorphicies can`t speak for Factions, farm trolls they drop a fair amount and the price is right, free. Yeah the drops are for the most part crap and you can make more money selling them to merchant but if you want the tilte....

really? maybe I get on at the wrong times...

IMHO you cant break even with shiverpeak keys but you'll have a chance with the 600gp keys in Factions
I LOL'd at myself for replacing a Crystalline sword with a Gothic sword but it really matches the armor for the warrior lol

No they don't. Elonian chests will not count for the treasure hunter title. They will, however, contribute to your seeker of wisdom title if they contain a gold item, which you identify. But it is the identification of the gold item that counts, not the opening of the Elonian chest.

The title says: High-end Chests.
