Create a Skeleton Key that can unlock chest without ever needing replaced.
Have a very rare Golden Fallen that can spawn in any location drop this Skeleton Key.
You will get no hints about where he is or when he spawns. It will be pure 100% luck if you run into him. Magic find will not influence anything.
Give us a slim chance to never need to replace keys again for unlocking chest. Please.
On one hand, yes, sure, sounds good. On the other…just make keys stack to 99 or something, it’ll be virtually the same thing. On the third hand, it’s fine as is, 12 keys is plenty for a play session especially since keys already drop rather frequently.
Just roll an assassin. BOOM! Never need keys again!
The assassin already killed the Golden Fallen. That’s why nobody can find it anymore.
I’d be happy if they’d get around to fixing shift+rightclick buying of keys…
In the OG, shift buying would either fill an existing non-full stack OR buy a new full stack.
In D2:R, shift+buying will either fill an existing non-full stack, or it buys a stack for the # in the vendor, then you have to shift+buy again to fill the new non-full stack.
Annoying.
Reported the issue here in the bug report section.
just skip chests and kill more monsters with the time saved
Well when we get that loot filter eventually I am turning Keys off lol
So I’m going to need that Skeleton Key 
It’s not buff or a nerf. It’s just a simple skeleton key with a neat way to find it.
Legends say the Assassin has no need for keys… 
On a more serious note, I’m not sure what good solution there is to improve the key mechanic.
Sure, it’s a bad mechanic that shouldn’t have been implemented in the first place, but I don’t see the devs outright removing it from the game, and an ultra-key just isn’t a satisfactory way to fix it. Maybe either increasing base key stack size, or have an alternative type of keys that you can’t buy but stacks infinitely?
I’m just not sure.
PS :
I have the same issue with portal scrolls. I don’t like having to restock every so often, though it’s less of an issue than keys.
i see no problem with this suggestion
as long its something that needs to be farmed im ok with it
Or an even crazier idea…
Magic, rare and unique keys with crazy mods
Use your imagination
“Chests opened with this key have an extra helm.”
“Gems and Runes in chests opened with this key have 40% chance of being one tier higher.”
“This key is not spent when opening a chest.”
Not sure whether the idea is good or not, but I’d definitely like to test it.
The Platinum Fallen with the Forever Town Portal Scroll
Sounds like something you came up with from playing Mario Party. But even those Skeleton Key’s are a 1 time use unfortunately.
Leave that perk to assassin
But make chest breakables lol
No key?
Brute force it
High life and no resists
I’m never short of keys, but this would be a cool way to get perhaps another small charm or something too.
