@ZOS_GinaBruno or anyone able to comment...
Are vSS chest runs (skipping bosses, clearing minimal trash) to loot the chests and get non percfected purple items (namely jewelry) considered an exploit by ZOS at this time?
Whether it gets patched in the future is beside the point. There are lots of debates going on in zone chat about this and it would be nice to know either way.

If it was Perfect SS gear, then I could see it as a problem but normal SS gear is whatever.

This.
Running a trial on normal for the regular version of the gear is a piece of cake. There is no need to sneak around for chests. It might save you a bit of time, but you also lose out on the drops you'd get from killing the bosses (which, again, pose no challenge on normal).
