Well, I have trapsin Karatzke (level 66 ATM). Would it be beneficial to hunt for keys from the summoner and the countess? i.e. could I make good trades off of it?
keys=alot of time w/out nigma and MH=uber set number1 that is hard to beat=ubers set number two that is god damn near impossible to beat(unless you have smiter buddys)=torchs that are 90% of the time worth like Um-Ist. Plus you've got to drop trade them suckers.
You might as well get 2 or more cdkeys and spend your time grushing mules to hell and doing forges.
keys create a portal to an Uber Boss(Uber Andy, Uber Duriel, and uber Izzy) and when you kill one of these bosses each drops an Organ from one of The 3 Brothers (diablos Horn, Baals Eye, Mephs Brain) and when u get all 3 organs u use them in cube to create portal to uber trist where all 3 uber Brothers are.
it is very much worth it.. there are people Buying Keysets for 1x Hr and in many cases Soj's. sometimes i dont find keys.. takes me 1-2 hours just to find a D key when doing Dkey runs. but it still pays off better than mfing for Wf's etc.

Hold on, so there are different keys now? Special keys that open shit up and get your into battle with uber crazy niggas that might get you this crazy torch weapon?
Ya, you find the keys doing the countess, summoner, and nitholak ( i can never spell his name right sorry.)In Hell. It has taken me up to 2 days to find a key before.
Summoner runs for Hate keys are exceptionally useless- since he... won't give you much else... in a million years.
Countess runs are okay for people... who really wanna spend longer(unless use maphack) teleporting there and finding mostly crappy runes from the countess and sometimes keys.
Destruction keys from nithilak(spelling?) are worth twice as much as the other keys though, and maphack isn't needed to get there very fast... but a really good character like a hammerdin with enigma is...
3 Keysets is/was worth around IST... tho any Torch you'd get after doing uber trist would be hard to trade for even a Mal(or for me it is anyway).. so I don't know what will happen to Key prices(though they should go WAY down)
Either way... ATM keys (at least on USEAST) are fluctuating in price. I personally do nithalak runs while trading Lem runes for each Dkey other people bring me.. then Trade 7-8 Dkeys for an Ist rune(and last time I checked... 7-8 Lem runes is NOT worth as much as ist) I made about 5 ists in the last 2 days doing this.
nowdays, ppl are buyin keys (single) for tonnes of shit! i saw sum1 buyin d or t key for a hr b4, and another game had c script, so wen i checked it, it had "soj 4 t key" i was shocked! o.O
