Roll a map until you get the chest setup you can deal with then run the map the same way for a couple hours and by then you should have a feel for what the rack offers and decide to keep or re roll.

The weapon racks appear beside a chest anyways so unless you luck into a map that has the first armour rack and weapon rack giving you what you want I’d just keep re rolling for an ideal chest map

find a rake close to wp
go straight path to it and pop it
check if enemies nearly (it makes difference)

run few times to to see what it mostly drops

roll new map and repeat

Monsters near it make a difference? Can you explain?

yes

it is some next level spooky shit how rakes have been made.

if you walk same route and no monsters near it will always drop same type of item

then from what direction there are monsters in your screen changes drops too

So it also depends on how I’m walking the route? I found a thresher rack and it’s dropped one in about 30 runs

Yep, route does matter. If you always find the same item, try reaching the rack from a different direction and you'll see it's true

I guess I’ll just have to play with it then. I can’t remember what I did for the one route. Thanks for all the help, this is the first single player char that’s gotten this far in hardcore so I don’t fully understand how lk works

Got myself a thresher rack next to Meph once, popped about 10 ethereal threshers from it, no eth (or non eth) reaper's unfortunately even though i popped it several hundred times. It only worked when I teleported quickly 4-5 times from the bottom left room towards the weapon rack at the end of my run, But I would have to teleport right in front of the rack (not past it) and if I did it just right it would work 90% of the time every time...Science...I still have no idea.
