I have just over a thousand. I want more so I can have spending spree and not deplete my entire stash. Do you do the same, do you have all shoulders, or do you just not care? Just curious, cheers.
just a bit under 200, but im not wasting them on uncurated boxes to maybe have a chance of getting the few monster shoulders im missing
ill wait to get my shoulders from the gold vendor when they decide to show up, as long as i have at least 1 shoulder i can complete the monster set
the keys kind of just sit there as theres almost nothing else even worth buying with the keys unless you wanted to waste 25-50 a pop buying the arms pack featured monster shoulder style, or the undaunted event opal monster style pages
i have my main house (grand topal hideaway) listed in the housing tours, it has multiple target dummies, scribing altar, and grandmaster stations (in progress being filled out), as well as almost every antiquity furnishing on display to preview them
I have all shoulders and around two hundred keys. I will probably not going to spend them on any style page. I do pledges from time to time though. So my key count will increase and new dungeon shoulders will be very easy to acquire for me.
400, it’s been a while for somewhat decent dlc monster set to be introduced so i had nothing to spend them on for maybe 2 years other than occasional style pages.
Have had 24 keys for a year or so, and not doing any dungeons/pledges. I just wait for the golden vendor to sell shoulders, as that costs 0 keys and I get exactly what I need.
500. I generally do a pledge a day, earning one key a day. I keep my key supply at 500 by buying a 1 key mystery box each time I earn a new key now. It's rare that I get shoulders I don't already have. Maj has had nothing new for me for a long time but once in awhile one of the others will come through. I don't worry about it, just a slightly productive use for those keys. My motivation for a daily pledge is because I enjoy soloing most of the non-DLC dungeons and the transmute crystals are welcome.

I have 3353 keys on my main account on PC/NA. My second account on PC/NA has 1355 keys. My main account on PC/EU has 1590 keys, and my second account on PC/EU has 588 keys. So 4.7K on NA across two accounts and 2.1K on EU, for a grand total of 6886 keys.
I've also spent thousands of keys over the years.
Years ago, I used to do pledges religiously every day, and had thousands of keys by the time the key system was overhauled in 2016 for One Tamriel (this was when the bronze/silver/gold keys were unified into a single key type; 3 years later, keys would be overhauled again into the currency that we have today). I still do pledges, but not quite as fervently and my key count has just been slowing creeping upwards over the years.
Pro-tip: I always buy 1-key coffers. I've never, ever bought the 5-key junk. Sure, they're less likely to get you what you're looking for, but along the way, you collect a lot of the stuff that you aren't looking for. So that when the time comes that the things that you used to not care about suddenly become useful, you'll have them collected already. In the long run, 1-key coffers are way more efficient than the 5-key. Plus you get motifs, harmony jewelry, and shoulder style pages (when one is active; also, when there's a style page actively dropping, you're almost always better off fishing for it with 50x 1-key boxes than buying it outright with 50 keys).
My playing time Mon-Friday UTC13:00-16:00 [PC-NA] CP over2000 now.

Farewell Atsuko Tanaka...(-_-) I never forget epic acting for major Motoko Kusanagi.
None. After blowing through 150 keys trying to get a set of shoulders, and failing, I haven't bothered with shoulder-roulette again. Saves me time though, as I have no need for RNDs or pledges.
