Treasure Chests level up like Monsters based on your current Character Level.
The Drop rate/quality is on Par with Evil Presence drop/quality rate.

I am voting Yes they should, this is based on rarity, events and maps and the Map level cap.

With Evil Presence, you still get the 0 drop syndrome after killing them ... thus the drop rate is 0 to X number, and the drop quality is just the same as a Treasure Chest, so why not increase the Treasure Chest by level?

Not sure if it can be coded, but then if you can do it for monsters and their level, certainly you can do the same for Treasure Chests.

not sure precisely what you mean, treasure chests are scaled to your level hence why you can't find tier 10 items at level 5 from them.


They should probably receive some buff, has been suggested before and getting them on the same level of EP's which at least 1/4 of them drop something of your level seems a reasonable suggestion.

as currently about 9 in 10 chests seem to just be 1x tier 1 item.


They're noticably better in groups though

I high-lighted your last sentence specifically for my post.

You are referring to drop quantity with chests in a group, and in doing so, you have a higher % chance to find something useful... this also relates to Evil Presence drops (quantity) as a group... however, when you are solo'ing, the TC drop quality and quantity is crap, just the same as Evil Presence, as I stated.

This suggestion will help both Solo and Group runs when encountering Treasure Chests... Evil Presences spawning in your catacomb is RARE, and Treasure Chests spawning in your Catacomb is Rare as well... but WE ALL prefer encountering +X% More Evil Presence when added to an event, HOWEVER, we don't give a fuck about a +X% More Treasure Chests.... why? Simple Simon says it all... because the drops from a Treasure Chest is 99% crap in comparison to the drops of Evil Presence.

Your choice about this suggestion... it increases the drop quality/quantity based on the same character level and equal to the drop/quality rate of an Evil Presence.

I would be fine if the quality was alot higher with each chest

BUT if this would be the case they would have to be alot more rare to spawn
(that would put an even higher value to the TC maps)

ive said this for years. a treasure chest should hold something decent but be hard to find
every TC should be like Angelic+ but quantity could go down some

Who the hell would store a T1 white in a chest????

I mean idk if i would like to see higher rarities tbh, i'm happy with higher quality alone (as in higher lvl whites)
Technically the system could be swapped entirely and give totally different rewards such as maps etc, making potions/comfries more common to spawn in them and so on

I do think we can agree on no matter how different people would like TCS to be changed.

A treasure chest should be valuable.

Trust him, he’s a leprechaun

And you answered my suggestion, by adding a Level increase to a TC like monster Level, you have better quality of drops. this also applies to this post below:



Now this would also be incorporated, and also means my suggestion should NOT be based on Evil Presence, as they do NOT drop Whites nowadays (hopefully someone or other players agree here or not). Also, I have found more comfreys from a chest than a spawned monsters (excluding welled monsters which seem to have a higher drop rate for comfreys).

Now in response to the below quote:



This is a good idea, but as stated above, the Treasure Chests should also drop whites of equal to or at least 1 or 2 Tiers higher, not just Angelic + items.



True, and this is why I suggested this ... if the Treasure Chest increases in level like monsters, you have a better chance of drops being higher tier and properties.

Well, this is what I was thinking when I posted this suggestion, but did not word it effectively for more of a positive response.

And at the end of the day... Treasure Chests need more loving, they do NOT always spawn in a catacomb, and if you think I am wrong... do some low level catacomb runs consecutively to find out, as for higher level catacombs... the size of it makes no difference when it comes to the time clearing the catacomb etc. (my wording is off, but all you need to do is test it out and take a time trial clearing each catacomb at X level and how many TC's, EPs, Emblems, TDs, Wells you find).
