It’s super simple:
If you have fully geared and spec’d characters for the task at hand, as in the question, Trav is miles ahead of Chaos / Cows, which are themselves ahead of LK chests, and nowhere else really compares.
Zax is a really good poster and asset to this community. I think we disagree on a great deal many things, but man does he put out some quality content. Has a vast knowledge of the game to boot.

Finish the game as Normal → Holy Fire
Nightmare and Hell Hammer
Start farming Chaos Sanctuary once you have 2 spirits and dont go anywhere else.

Pretty much this. It’s probably going to be the best chaos farmer.
This guide is aimed for all players, i can definitely use this holy fire setup for shorter walkthroughs for softcore players online but i am not so sure for hardcore.
Holy freeze playthrough is much more safe in that regard, but i would rather not waste respec at all. Holy fire will struggle against minions of destruction on normal who are quite dangerous and highly fire resistant. Also diablo fight is more dangerous with holy fire than with holy freeze.
I think even start as hammerdin would be fine to not even go auradin to save respec, because merc with pike and some dmg jewels you find on the way can kill anything on players 3 with leveled concentrate.
About the chaos. Idk i think its way too dangerous on hardcore, its hard there. So i would rather finish whole game as hammerdin and then switch to holy Bolt with fist of Heaven build who can pick few places and farm a lot safer than hammerdin.
I have already done holy freeze test run before so i can use just that for guide, check it if you want. I am actualy using new improved fire merc for enchant:

My gut feeling that something seems off on those elite pack counts. At first glance River of Flame doesn’t look right. Max of 7 elite packs?
Well its taken directly from 2.4 files.
But reality is that some locations are kind of broken. For example Sewers 2 is supposed to have 6-7 elites but density of mobs in that location is limited so you might see none sometimes and rarely max number.
I am not sure about River of Flame. Numbers seems alright, what is the issue exactly? You think its less or more?
TBH I’d need to check it out. Just sounds low assuming thats including both Champ/Unique packs right? I also just woke up so maybe my brains just fuzzy it’s like 5 am heh.

Yes its champions also but I never found out how are they exactly counted, if 3 champions are counted as one pack (one elite) or as 3 single elites. Some tests seems to go for every champion is single elite.
I “think” 2-4 champs or 1 unique + it’s minions are considered a “pack.”
But the number is number of elites, not number of packs tho. I have counted ancient tunnels once and it didnt ad up when i counted champion pack as 1 single elite entity.
Okay I was 100% wrong. My B. Fuzz brain ftl… checked 5 TP throughs. Got 4 maps with 6 and 1 map with 7 elite packs.
