The problem is that the chest isn't there every time, generally 2 in 5, or maybe 3 in five on a good run. I've had it be there 0/5 more often than 5/5. The pots are also not a sure thing, many times there won't be any. The only thing in the chest that's guaranteed is a green and 6g.
Even if every chest were worth 50g, and it was there every time, a rogue enchanter can make more money elsewhere. I speed run BRD, and have timed my run to be almost exactly 12 minutes (works perfectly with the instance reset timer). I kill Incendius, that mage guy with the dog (don't remember his name), pyromancer loregrain, Phalanx, Panzor (if he's up), and complete the summoner's tomb event. That's a minimum of 5 large brilliant shards (10g each on most servers), and a couple smalls (or just vendor the small brilliant items, usually sell for more to a vendor anyway). That's about 250g an hour, not counting random drops they have, the small brilliant shard items and the shot at the fiery formula (50g on my server).
Very fast, very steady money.

The BRD run sounds very good too, thanks for the tip :)
But I think you have missed something regarding mechanar. There is ALWAYS a chest. Every. Single. Time.
Three different spawns. One at the stairs when you go left at the entrance, one at stairs when you go right, and then there is one behind mechanolord capacitus. I do it around 8 hours a day, and there is always a chest. Often times, there are 3 potions in 1 chest, and sometimes there is a scroll. About 1/5 runs you will get a Blue Gem or Blue BoE. If you dedicate yourself to it, it's at least 200g pr. 20 mins. I don't think anything beats that.
