You'll probably make more money selling the keys.

2k more profit from opening them.

 

http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/Crystal_chest

DK drops (solo/LS): 66 hatchets, 14 archer rings, 13 berserker rings, 17 warrior rings, 12 seerculls, 13 mud staves, 7 seers rings

QBD drops: 1 kite, 2 visages, 4 dragonbone kits, 3 effigies, lots of crossbow parts

CR vs. CLS threads always turn into discussions about penis size.

It's not called a Compensation Longsword for nothing.

I've sent a 12k combat mission to have Aiel assassinated (poor bastard isn't even Pincers-tier difficulty).

That's also on average so you might end up losing money, banking might also take a little time. Personally I'd just sell the keys and save myself the hassle, but if you like a little gamble go ahead.

I would use them, just for the fun, you probably won't lose much money and maybe even gain money

hmm so really its a gambling choice well i shall decide soon f more people comment that could persuade which way i will go would help :P

Because it is proven to make an average profit of 2k per chest, it is still indeed gambling, but gambling with positive expected value.

Your decision to sell them should be based on the fact that you can make more money than 20k(10 keys per trip) in time it takes to run to the chest, loot them and bank them. Not on the fact that you don't want to gamble.

(Use a BoB if you decide to use them)

 

Unless they're "too valuable" for one.

Does anyone see the same bug as me on the wiki page, it lists dragon uncut + 2k + spinach roll two times but with different gold values (and spinach roll and 2k swapped)?

And I wouldn't use that page as 100% sure. It can be edited by anyone.

Use'm....crystal keys are an oddity in runescape, in that they're the only thing that closely resembles an actual/functional slot machine. Even if you lose, just think of all the glories you'll be able to make....you'll be set for edgeville teleports for the next year...

ok i say use them because you get a d stone to cut and to make something out of for xp also you might get a half a key back and or rune bars for smithing. thats what i would do. <-----if the chest gives them to you its random though. might get food or other gems with it.

 

 

 

if you get a half a key back on one chest and a few chests later you get the other half then you can get another chance at the chest
