    Make it in the IWD campaign. This task replaced the skirmish unlock.

    Is more than worth it. Kessel's key grants 2x the ice and 2x the seals.

    I went to KR today (finally). Unfortunately, I cannot open another chest. I have the key but it is now a "rusted Kessell's retreat key".
    Is there a time limit the key must be used? Or, it is because the key was made in mod 5?

    Is there a way to get WD-40 to unrust it? :)

    Thanks.

    You can do multiple campaigns at the same time? I progressed through all together.

    Hi Plasticbat,

    I'm pretty sure that if you double click to 'use' your rusted key(s) it converts it into the new one that can unlock the extra chest. So, a bit like a magical WD-40...

    That rusted key is what the 'old' keys to unlock the skirmishes etc. became when they did away with the need to unlock the instances and changed that to the crafted keys for the extra chests.

    I had a few on some of my Alts that never quite got to the stage of running things like Kessels, Malabog and Valindra, even though I had unlocked it.

    I think that the tooltip for the rusted keys tells you something similar that they can be converted, but I'm at work and can't login to check. Hopefully one of the other guys on the forum can confirm it?

    The new crafted keys can stack, so you can always craft a bunch up and then binge on some tasty runs with a good party :) Just be aware that some of the loot can be worth less than the key, but if you open the chest, you can decline it without using the key up like eLoL and eSoT allowed you to do in Mod 5.

    Hopefully RNGesus is kind to you :)

    Thank you. When I right click the key, there is "open box" option. Too bad I did not know that when I was in KR. Good that I did not discard it. :)

    Again, thank you.
