Yep I already know the o'l "stand on a pyxis" method. ^^ The suggestion is about streamlining the process so folks don't have to do that. I'll say once again, if it's a 2hr box for the Cleaver to pop, imagine if the person checking the box could identify the box without having to say where it is or stand on it due to that fact that there's a visual identifier handling all that for ya. If there's TE's that need poppin and they have keys, then no, there's no need for communication or flagging.
Whether it's a graphic label or different colored boxes like Wish suggested(though the colors alone wouldn't tell ya how much time is left or how strong the light is/rank the chest is with just a glance), "streamlining" a process is all about improving efficiency. The very same as what just happened with the Atma infusion menu. Did we need it? Not really, since the menu worked "just fine" in terms of locating and selecting 3 Atmas from page lists. Are the new menu options faster at infusing atmas? Yep. The time it takes to infuse Atma choices has dropped dramatically.

You want to steamline the process? Tell everyone to carry god damn keys on them.

Still not hard, and labeling wont fix that. The only idea you had that was good was having the chests not stack on top of each other.

And yes Labeling "Could" fix the annoyance since once the 2hr box is located amongst the bunch the key person could quickly flag the 2hr box without having to slow down the check process and detail where it is or stand on it, and proceed to key and destroy all other chest. One could argue, the same could be done with keys in terms of popping the chest around the 2hr box, but depending on how many keys you have and how many chest are around the 2hr box, that could be a major waste. -
