Today brought us a new update.

Quote:

Fixed a bug that caused chests to spawn less frequently in the Domain of Anguish.

I thought the Veil nerf was just a bug, so I went to check it out. 5 runs, no chests. I guess it was intentional. So, I decided to do a gloom run. 5 runs, no chests. Maybe I'm just unlucky for gloom, but whatsup ANet? I thought you fixed the bug that made chests to spawn less frequently, not made a bug to make chests spawn less frequently.

Must be intentional,because chests spawn less frequently in Realm of Torment too

Arkantos · Feb 18, 2007, 02:01 PM // 14:01

Literally no chests spawn.

And I just spent the last of my money on a big stack of keys! Grah!

Theres no chests out in Poisened Outcrops either..has gloom gloom or viel been fixed yet?

A guildie says he got one chest in Veil after a couple of runs. I got one chest in gloom after about 15 runs.

Anet needs to quit screwing around with the chests and they need to add them to the missions like they are in Prophecies and Factions. I wonder what lame reason they have for not adding chests in the missions for Nightfall, especially since we've been at it for months now and they could have easily fixed it in one of their updates like they've fixed everything else lately.

Think you got the wrong thread?

Just Completed 2 runs in poisonsed, and got 1 chest >.< ussualy get 5 a run..

Kcp · Feb 20, 2007, 01:53 AM // 01:53

Screwing around with chests is on topic. Getting 1-3 chests per stygian run to none equals screwing with chests in my book. No chests in mission areas is pretty much the same topic, although it's been around since NF release, before the DoA chestless feature that was recently implemented.

I'm sure they will fix it back, what else will we do with those expensive keys if it's intended.

Wow right when i buy keys too >.<

vojnik · Feb 20, 2007, 03:01 AM // 03:01

5 runs in gloom, 3 chests... maybe I'm just lucky

Arkantos · Feb 20, 2007, 04:47 AM // 04:47

4 more runs for gloom, still nothing. Did ANet change the chest spawns?

If ANET did fix the chest bug,then they must have changed the spawn because i did about 5 runs and found 2 chests,surprisingly in places i couldnt reach without doing quests

This was in the Veil too.

i found around 3 chest/5 runs in gloom, so still working (without doing quest ofc). Poisoned outcrops no problem, 4-5 chest per run.

Cherno · Feb 20, 2007, 04:41 PM // 16:41

3 chests in 5 runs is not a good rate. Prior to the updates you would ocassionally get no chests in the zone. There are usually 1-3 chests in that zone. I am not getting no chests about 50% of the time. The times that I do get a chest there is usually just 1. Only once in 20 runs that actually have chests (read 50 times in the zone at least) have there been 2 chests.

It is either still bugged, or become bugged differently. I went into Veil and haven't found a chest yet.

Bryant Again · Feb 20, 2007, 05:08 PM // 17:08

5 runs, none in Gloom. Crap?

onerabbit · Feb 20, 2007, 08:30 PM // 20:30

Also, ive not got 1 gold item from any chests since the *fix*....

Osi Ri S · Feb 20, 2007, 09:44 PM // 21:44

well i havent done gloom runs but i HAVE done some LB/chest farming in the Nightfallen Jahai and there were a couple chests a run but they were far away from eachother and i got 1 gold out of 7 keys... and IIRC the gold wasnt anything special (wanted a firey bladed axe

)

Harakiem · Feb 23, 2007, 09:22 PM // 21:22

Actually, the chests in the DoA are spawning when you clear groups now. I've seen chests just lying around, but it's been my experience that you have to kill a group to get the chests to pop recently.
...and ANet nerfs yet another form of income...
