Troves of the Thunder King Scenario Guide
I will now tell you how to make the most gold while in the Troves of the Thunder King scenario. To enter, you need a Key to the Palace of Lei Shen. Keep in mind that every run will be different, as there's a lot of RNG at play in the scenario. One run I obtained a whopping 20 golden treasure chests, and then when I did the same on my second alt, I only found 5 golden treasure chests.
On average I can make about 550 gold per run on each of my characters that have most abilities that increase speed, like warlock and monk. Sometimes over 650, and sometimes way less. How many Burial Trove Keys you find ultimately decides how much wow gold you made from the run, as one equals about 65 wow gold.
There's many tactics you can use, and they are all decent. But from my experience focusing on golden chests is the way to go. There's one exception though! If you see a cluster of normal chests (2+) next to each other, it's a good idea to loot them all quickly, if they are not too far away. Make sure you have auto loot turned on from your settings.
A golden chest may have the following inside
- Mote of Harmony 1-9
Where to find the Key to the Palace of Lei Shen?
Finding the key is very fast always. Your best bet is to find the weekly treasure chest in Isle of Thunder, called Trove of the Thunder King. It goes out of phase once you have looted it. It has a key 95% of the time. You can do this on each of your toons.
They are littered over the place and are easy to spot, but here's all of their locations, provided by wowhead.

Which items to bring along?
You can use your Elder Charms of Good Fortune to purchase useful items for the scenario. The vendor is located just next to the starting point of the scenario, before you turn in your key and start the timer. It's a good idea to use up all your charms before you start, as you can easily get over 15 elder charms from a single scenario and 20 is the limit you can have. If you have all the below items already, it's a good idea to grab an Arcane Trove or Sunreaver Bounty if you're horde. If you're lucky, they may have an additional Key to the Palace of Lei Shen, allowing you to do the scenario twice in a row.
Items that help you make more wow gold in Troves of the Thunder King

There's many turns in the scenario, and there's no wrong route to take. Everywhere you go, there's chests. You can however watch some of the more successful videos and decide which one you want to try. These 2 are my favourite routes and I have obtained the most gold when following them.
