For the gauntlet, open all the chest with robin group is the best choice. period. you don't have any malus and can take every thing. the only chest containing something (and not a laugable amount of Sx) is the one with the witch hat, if the chests open before the race will be a factor i think is safe leave all of them close.

Make the race in 30 sec was relatively hard for me, i'm not the best in such game, but we need to see the real rewards for evaluating if the effort is justified.

I don't think one can make the race in 31-45 seconds and open all the chest at the same time. so barring using one investigation opportunity to "map the tower" the assolute best result require the [Orgy: Zirantian Plan] On {+ having meet Xestris during the erosian invasion} [30sec: +8, 0 Chest open: +2, Xestris Talk: +1 = 11] You can make the 31-45 time while opening all the chests, but you'd still need to do mappings since 31-45 timer is +6, and opening all chests is just +3, so even with Xestris' help you'd still be one point short.

You can make the 30 seconds time while opening 5 chests, but it requires borderline perfect movement and skipping the chests that take the longest to get to (I had to skip "Near the Mirror" and "Central left of the map"). Probably not worth the trouble since it was a bit difficult and it is just some extra Sx, the better witch hat, and a better healing potion, but I felt it was worth sharing.
