what about a craftable key? 

Please.. oh please.. read.. the other.. comments...

I will say it once more..

There is no point in craftable keys because then you gain absolutely nothing (takes green mats to craft key, get green mats from chest = no gain = pointless). If keys are a drop then that is pointless as well because you're getting the chest as a 100% reward from the boss, so you're saying that in order to get green drops from a chest, you need to get a green drop (key), yeah, very very pointless.

my proposal does not require green mats to buld the key, rather the key shards drop like green mats and eventually (once all 3 key shards are collected) you can build the key from the shards allowing you to unlock a chest. this would be separate from the bosses chest.

Fairly sure I said already on my second point that if keys (or key shards) are a drop (green), it will still be pointless because you are getting green drops to get green drops, you could get more green drops without having to get those key green drops, so your point doesn't really make any sense still.

Don't really know why people want keys, it just prolongs you getting materials.

think of it this way, the items in the random chest could lead to legendaries or perhaps a old boot not necessarily green drops only. you might even be able to buy/sell them like green mats. (someone with enough money could gamble his fortune away). this chest would in no shape or form guarantee a green drop, however it offers the chance at greater things at the risk of lesser things. in regards to it replacing other green drop the answer is simple let the mob who drops it be a mob that does not already give a green drop.
