So, About Those Treasure Keys? (Destiny)

How are Treasure Keys supposed to be awarded in the Prison of Elders? We ran Level 28 twice and Level 32 once, but never got any new keys. Will running at 34 or 35 grant a key upon completion?
Edit: Looks like we're not alone, according to Reddit.

How many did you have in your inventory? I know that you can't hold more than 5 on a single character.
Hah, I wish.

I only had two (one from farming chests, one from Variks when he sent us to the Level 28 PoE). Burned both keys doing Level 28 twice (friends hadn't completed it and everyone has to do it at 28 before you can run the harder difficulties). We bumped up to 32 and nobody got a key.
No Warning that opening chest consumes keys
I dont mind having spent them in the Lvl 28 PoE, but because nothing came up onscreen I thought "Oh, maybe the low-level challenge doesnt give or require keys."
Not true. Got a No Land Beyond though. Yay...
Does the chest behave differently at different levels?

No idea
But I would imagine so. Otherwise what's to stop me from using all of mine on the lowest difficulty challenge and reaping the highest rewards?

At higher levels I think it offers you weapon and armor cores...
can you complete 28 and not use a key at the end?

If you don't open the chest, yes

Random drop as far as I can tell.
Seems odd that you need to get the keys outside of the activity sometimes. Yay for farming!
That's the thing…

…I don't think that's the intended course of action. All reports I'd read going into this week said that Treasure Keys would drop at the end of Prison of Elders, once per week.
Have you run the lvl32 version yet, though?

Maybe the lvl28 one isn't supposed to anyway.
Uh, yes…

OP:

:-P
Ain't got no time for reading OPs, son!

:p
Sorry, forgot that. We do get a key from the quest line, though, right?
Correct

So is it ideal to not use it on level 28 and 32? I think I should be able to run the 34 this week on at least one or two characters. Better to save the keys for that, right?
If you don't open the chest, yes

I think it's fair to say that we don't know yet but that's the assumption.
Can you open multiple times within the same run?
