Chest drops
1 pages • Page 1
I don't personally get many warrior items from chests, I mainly get some caster offhands, armor, oh and bows bows and more bows. That being said, I don't have a ranger, so they are completely useless to me. Its gotten to the point where I don't even bother with chests any longer, because all I ever get is crap, I think I have the worst luck with them.

its mostly caster wep... i dont know if there is a anti farm in play with chests so you don't get good drops if you keep getting them.... thus i don't go out of my way to open chest.... i usually just buy one key before doing something and if a chest happens to be along the way i open it... i'd have to say i opened around 15 chests so far from various locations.... i have only gotten rare staves mostly.... so i have pretty much given up chests in general... though the drops are better stats wise than they were in tyria...

I never get anything useful from chests anymore, I got a nice spec eternal bow for my Ranger a couple of days after the chests were first introduced but now I get utter crap, mainly ele staffs with useless bonuses. The last chest I opened (in a high level area too) I got a sub max purple shield with a water magic bonus ffs. I never buy chest keys, I only ever use the keys I get as drops.

I opened 250 chests since the update and have (2) in my name
. What I remember is that most of them are purple and bows/wands. For kurzick chests amber wands are dropped like crazy. Only got 1 perfect katana I sold for 100k+2 ectos and a few more perfects but I agree... warrior weapons are pretty rare :X
People have theories about anti-good-drop codes, but I really think the only anti-anything-good code is the anti-farm code you see when you continuously zone in-and-out of out area.
Why? Because I can safely make an assumption from my own experience (bear in mind I base this on 1,000+ hours of play time) and studies other forum posters have done that suggest chests are random. Also, note that I've had 2 perfect 15% "always" weapons drop from 2 chests consecutively. On the other hand I've had 2 non-max purple, crap (no +dmg) items drop 2 times consecutively. 2 extremes, no extremes at all, that's my obsevation if it's worth anything.
