One-shot chests, not bother until in ultimate?

[Puxo ☥]

Im running the game on normal (veteran right now) in act 7 and pushing trough (level 59 right now) so feeling good for elite as soon im done with act 7.
But right now im searching for all the shrines and one-shot chests.

But the chests... kinda feel waste of time to run for them ;o Do I feel right? I can understand when i am level 75+ and in ultimate that the one-shot chests is good to grab. But in normal?
How in elite?
Ofc if I go for a playtrough thats not focusing on them, I would open them when I run pass :)

For the shrine, do I need to grab ALL to get max devotion points? as I am 37 / 55 points right now, and both elite and ultimate have alot of them :O

Or is it better to more skip them and then grab rest needed to go to 55 poitns later on? :)

Do bother, cause they may drop low lvl recipes.

I really only bother with one shot chests if I'm close to it if I'm not then I dont even bother. In ultimate you're gonna get your purples from dungeons usually and some from nemesis chests.

As for devotions the first 10 is easy to get from crucible. As of the FG expansion the amount of shrines stay the same in each difficulty compared to how it was before where some shrines are not present in elite/ult difficulty

I don't know about you but I'm the kind of player that likes a clean sweep before I move onto a higher difficulty, I tend to automatically take the chests just in case there are recipes in them, no reason not to. With shrines if you have in mind what you want, the earlier you get your devotion skills the better, since they need time to level up.

But recipes? Can they drop anywhere, low level recepies, do I even need them anyways? Not put myself deep into crafting yet. But I understand there is some sweet high end gear that is crafted etc.

Ya I know how to go for devotion, but for me its abit, is the time worth it etc. But I kinda feel, why should I bother to search for shrines if I get them anyways. But as you say, nice to get them early too. I would think, ofc, before ultimate have all devotion completed etc.
But after I get 55/55 devotions, is there any reason to grab shrines more then for the loot as a "normal" chest?

For example, to craft this you need "Fervor" (lvl 25) and "Hysteria" (lvl 25).

definitely just grab it all. shrines cant be activated once they've already been used. so normal you'll have so many then elite they'll slim down a bit, some wont be there like they were in normal, and then ultimate there will be even fewer. you'll want to grab those because unless you've really managed your character and figured everything out then by the time you hit ultimate you're gonna start struggling and every little bit from before then will help. but of course you can always go back to elite and farm rogue dungeons and nemisis if you've unlocked any by then.
theres some really good devotion stuff that'll help with your survival if you're squishy.

Okey thats good too know :) But how does recept drops? From any loot spawn? Just that one-shot chest have high chance for it?

Ya I can understand that you want them as fast as possible for the boost the bring, but I am at 43/55 right now, will be 45/55 before im done here for sure... So that mean I need 10 more shrine on elite then its done?

But after that, grab them all for loot or?

Random.

Most probably it can drop from star boss orbs, one-shot chest, nemesis/gladiator troves, Supreme chests, shrines and even completing quests.

So with other words, I have around same chance to get a recept from a boss as a one-shot chest? Then im better of too just farm boss imo or? :P

If you blow up one-shot chest and kill bosses, more chance for recipe to drop...

But if I take time to search for the chest instead of killing 5 star mobs, wouldnt it give me less chance? :o

Wouldn't say so, considering you will likely encounter many bosses on your way to those chests
