Nothing but Empty Chests....

Find yourself a lockpicking runebook at a rune library. Mark your own book up from that. Cycle through all of the chests multiple times a day. Sometimes you'll catch all of the fresh respawns and sometimes someone will beat you to them every time. I got from 95-99 in a single, casual weekend of 2x gains back when we were having a lot of crashes. On the bright side, without 2x gains, you'll earn hundreds of thousands of gold pieces lockpicking dungeon chests from 95-100.

So it's gonna take me a little while to make a complete list and I'll be updating as I finish Dungeons.

I spent a lot of time walking around the dungeons and trying to locate all the static chests within the dungeons so these lists should be complete however there's always the chance that I've missed a chest or two so if anyone knows of a chest I missed please let me know and I'll update because I"d like these lists to be as up to date and accurate as possible!

So without further adieu:

Despise Dungeon Chests

Despise Level 1

Chest 1

Chest 2

Chest 3

Chest 4

Despise Level 3

Chest 5

Chest 6

Chest 7

Chest 8

Despise Level 4

Chest 9

Chest 10

​

And those are the only static chests in Despise Dungeon that I was able to locate. I checked all the locations in the two links posted so if they aren't on this list then they weren't in the dungeon.

More dungeons to come! It takes a while to get all the pictures together while stealthing around dungeons and then creating the post so gimme some time but I'll make a complete list of all dungeons as soon as I can!

If you or anyone tells me which of these are wrong, I can update the Wiki post.

I just spend all last night double checking my Dungeon locations in Despise and checking the locations on your link.

Your link only shows Chest locations for level 4 Despise and all 4 locations on that map do not have lootable chests in the UOF Dungeon. I went to all 4 locations hoping to add to my Runebook but couldn't find a lootable chest at any 4 of the locations.

There are chests at all 4 locations however they are all just static empty chests :[

There are only 2 lootable chests on level 4 from the searching I've done and posted them above.

I'll be updating each Dungeon as I finish them and can provide the picture showing the chest locations.

Interesting side note, the Swamp on level 4 where the poison elemental/silver serpent spawn is located is no longer showing up in the dungeon! Or at least the Swamp isn't showing up on my screen anymore, it used to but not anymore.

I never understood why every lockpicker must feed from the same boxes all day, everyday, week in, and week out. Even treasure maps and MiBs fall to this same pattern. Is there not a way to make this a non-static treasure system?

Certainly would encourage people to get out and explore again looking for chests

The spawner token is here. I must wait.

Could incorporate it into random world spawns like like a small orc fort pops up outside of Brit but the only way to open it is with X+ lock picking. The large the random world spawn the harder the chests are to open. That could also give thieves the thrill of sneaking through a random undead lair to pick the chest and chuckle when adventures final reach an empty chest.

You'd also have to make it worth looting the chest to begin with. As it stand the current loot inside dungeon chests is laughable. Nobody wants to bother looting a handful of gold, jewels and magic items.

In my opinion they really need to revamp the whole Dungeon Chest System, it has such huge potential.

Have Chests have a chance to drop rares/semi-rares that only can be found in Dungeon Chests. Make it a ridiculously low % chance if you want but something.

Also create new crafting house decorations that require ingredients that are only found in Dungeon Chests.

Those are just two changes that would get a ton of players out into the dungeons and searching for them chests.

Another big change that I'd love to see is remove all the static empty chests that are in the dungeons and only have 2 - 4 Chests that randomly spawn in dungeons at any given time, increase the loot threshold dramatically as well as the ideas I put forth above and make each chest randomly re-spawn every 2 to 3 hours after they are unlocked.
