New Ideas for Collector's Chests!

  • Ahoy Mates!
    Collectors Chests are perhaps one of the best Additions in the Anniversary Update!
    I ❤ Collector's Chests
    (Not just because of the Memes either)

    There a small addition with a big impact!
    But you didn't come this way just to hear me rave about how cool Collector's Chests are.

    So I've got 3 ideas for using Collector's Chests in new and interesting ways!

    #1: Riddle Quests
    I think everyone can admit that Gold Hoarder Riddle quests just aren't worth the effort when compared to how profitable X marks the spot quests are.
    So my idea is to make Riddle quests give you Collect's Chest!

    As for what would be in it, well that's up to Rare... But, it could range from Trinkets to Mermaid Gems to Skulls!

    I'm sure if implemented, this idea would give players the incentive to go after Riddle quests again!


    #2: Mercenary Voyages
    All Mercenary Voyages usually do is give you a few Captain's Chests. to dig up.
    Which is kind of a lame reward if ya ask me. 😕
    So why not make Collector's Chests at the end?

    Just imagine the possibilities, you could make themed Mercenary Voyages off what's in the Collector's Chests!
    For example:
    Mercenary Voyage of the Mermaid's Fortune, a mercenary voyage that gives you Collector's Chests at the end full of Mermaid Jems!
    Mermaid Gems

    Or Mercenary Voyage of the Bounty Hunter's Stash, a mercenary voyage that gives you Collector's Chests full of Bounty Skulls, ranging from Foul to Stronghold Skulls!

    Like I said the possibilities are quite endless!
    Not to mention you could use em in future Reaper's Runs as well!


    #3: Skeleton Fort Strongholds
    It's my belief that Skeleton Forts could use a Collector's Chest in the Vault.
    Bone Collector's Chest
    It could come in handy for moving the smaller Stronghold loot back to the ship!
    Quite the days work ahead


    Anyways mates, those are my ideas for using Collector's Chests in new and interesting ways!
    NEW AND INTERESTING WAYS!!!
    Let me know what ya think of em!
    And do tell me if you've got any ideas regarding Collector's Chests!
    Until then see ya on the seas!

  • This is an awesome concept and I'd love to see it implemented! This guy deserves to have an up vote!

  • @sgt-palooggoo I'm fine with the riddle maps how they are, but this would be a nice addition...also the stronghold ones are a good idea...
    But I'm not sure if this would effect the stability of the game when there are too many of them on a server...

  • At the very least washed up collector's chest should at least have gold in them like was originally planned. But to dig up a chest with random items in it? It would be a pirate themed surprise bag and this would be GREAT.

    Upvote from me.

  • All great ideas and they would be very easy to implement, so even better. Also, the empty washed up chests are super disappointing, they really need to make them spawn with some stuff inside.

    Another thing that would be cool is if you could walk up to and talk to each faction with the collector's chest in hand, and it would automatically sell anything inside the chest that belongs to that faction. So you could sell 3 trinkets at once with the Gold Hoarders, but you would keep the collector's chest itself in your hand.

  • @sgt-palooggoo nice idea mate new and interesting ways lol it would be cool to see

  • @sgt-palooggoo them chests come in handy because you can put 3 small items in them and it’s a really cool feature that rare have added.

    Oh, Nioce!
    That's a new world record in listening to fan feedback! lol

  • @rip-chongy There are a lot of trinkets in the game specifically for the GH, so I wouldn't worry about that.

  • Aye what @galactic-geek said!
    There are many Trinkets in the game ranging from bronze to jeweled!

  • Love this idea and fully support it on all accounts.

  • They haven't had gold in them for about 2 months now I've reported it I'm sure anyone else picking them up are receiving nothing for gold either please send in a bug report for these so rare gets on them we've had fix after fix and no fix on the treasure chests themselves I've already submitted and complained diving to get that chest usually not worth it except for storage.

  • @chiefjdub aye, it'd be great if they could get the Gold in the Chests working.
    Apparently it wasn't included with the Anniversary Update because it caused crashes or something.

  • Glad to hear their trying to add collector's chests to riddle quests.
    That should improve them quite a bit.
