The reaper chests should not be visible on the map after collected , fairness is welcome. By the way , as long as the reaper lord buys goods from any company , any company should buy his chests as well.
Reaper chests
@wolfmanbush , it's a "no risk" scenario for those preparing an ambush at reaper's hideout , just letting others "do the job". There's a point , Sir : SoT needs to be more challenging for everyone.
@calico-jack3172 no and no...in the beginning of the reaper chest, you could sell it to Duke (now Larinna), but since the reaper hideout exists it belongs there, for obvious reasons (REAPER chest anyone?)...it's a chest for the PvP faction, reapers, they also get seen on the map...so why shouldn't it be on the map?
@schwammlgott , fair ... so the reaper lord shouldn't buy merchant goods or skulls by this logic , just reaper chests.

Lol so you are blanket wanting tucking in any form removed by your logic of ambushing a known target being bad? Good luck!

camping reapers for just reaper chests isn't common
what's more common is less experienced pirates thinking it's a good idea to turn in a reaper chest while someone is already there turning in their own loot
The amount of reaper chests I've turned in from random people attacking me while I'm turning in that had a reaper chest on them is much higher than it should be.
@wolfmanbush said in Reaper chests:
no point in having a reaper chest in a risk/reward scenario without the risk
I think it would be cool if crews could keep the chest on their ship as "insurance" for when a Reaper comes. If the emissary grade of the ship is low then perhaps it may be in the best interest of the attacker to take the chest instead of sinking it.
If the chest in given to the reaper, the reaper may temporarily roam the map without their mark, or the mark of the chest, showing up (like say 1/2 hour). If the chest is stolen, it's behaviour remains as is and both the ship and the chest appear on the map.
Just a thought. I really wish they would experiment with loot changing behaviour / value based on how it is acquired.

Reapers is the intentional risk modification of this game as is flying the flag. The Reapers chest like humble gifts can only be sold to the reapers lord. It’s an elevated risk nobody has to take. I know when I get it I’m the hunted. I don’t get it unless I’m empty because it’s a suicide run for me that pays well 😂
