Default Petition: Fix locked chest drops!

Nothing to me is more irritating than farming in Hard Mode, finding a locked chest, and not only breaking the lockpick, but the chest spawning a PURPLE. Who wants purples in hard mode? They should be golds, tomes, gems, etc. Not purples. It's one thing if they drop from monsters, but they shouldn't drop from chests. Who agrees with me?

Chest loot should increase for all chests, it's really annoying that it takes a lot of time AND you lose 75% of your investment on average!

Chests are meant to be a gamble, grapes are a part of the game.

The ratio is very off though.

Plus the keys got more expensive relatively speaking, thanks to loot scaling. And it's harder to sell items to players and the merch only gives 80-300 for an item.

I do agree that it sucks to open a chest and not only break a lockpick but get a purple, but should it be changed? I don't think so.

It's fine the way it is.

It stinks, but its not broken (thus it doesn't need to be "fixed"). Welcome to the world of statistics and luck.

Yep chest drops should definitely never be purple in HM and maybe a higher percentage of keeping them in NM.

Oh and if it wrecks the game for the people that say /not signed, even better.

Post your desire for better drops in the suggestion forum.

Asking ANet to fix your luck - good luck with that! :>

I can hardly tell the difference between regular chests and locked chests when it comes to purple Vs. gold loots. Locked chests need a larger gold ratio, or lockpicks need to be cheaper to balence it out.


This isn't about someone have bad luck. This is about just about every player getting robbed on lockpick cost versus loot. Ratio needs to be changed.

/not signed, since it's already nicely ruining the game for people that say /signed.

Mwuahahahaha.

Doesn't ruin my game, the game itself does that. Oh and I deal with purples when I get them, I don't care.

I got an elemental sword from a chest. That makes up for 250 lockpicks. I think chests should have shittier drops. kk?
