Just to clarify exactly how the Crossroads actually work, the six options on the right level up (to a maximum of level 9) each time you go through them, either by clicking them directly or via "Somewhere" sending you to one of them randomly. When you complete one of the paths, you have a [6 + [3 x path level])% (caps at 33%) of finding a rare chest, but this ONLY applies to when you complete a path via clicking "Somewhere". Clicking any of the paths directly will let you level up that path, but won't result in a rare chest.
Ergo, this method is the best (always available) in the game, but still takes a while since you're starting at 6% per run, can't choose which path to go on (ergo, cannot focus on one path's odds), and six paths means building the chance is a slow, long process.
I haven't tested it myself, but if you have a build that can nuke enemies really quickly (basically, if you're playing a mage), then choose a path that you can nuke down quickly (Praetorian Warlock absolutely manhandles the Northlands), run through that 2 or 3 times to get its level up to around 15% quickly, then click "Somewhere" and keep running away and trying again until you randomly land in that leveled-up path. You have about a 17% chance to get the right path, and resetting repeatedly is likely WAY faster than doing un-optimal elemental paths at lower percentages per run. And since "Somewhere still levels that path, each attempt has a better chance than the last.
