yaaarrrrggggg so we got a chest that crys and fills your boat up with water, and also the chest of rage that puts your boat on fire and then the chest of grogs which makes you drunk while holding lol. all these chests have a special thing towards them. so this next chest idea would be one that sprouts legs on the bottom if left unattended for awhile say ten mins with no interactions. once that time limit is up it jumps up onto its legs and starts running or walking or swimming its way back its home(original place it was found).
now imagine your sailing and all of a sudden you see a chest swimming by itself in the middle of the ocean back to the island it was found. once it reaches its home it would de spawn though.
New chest idea
@quack341 Only thing I could see being a headache, besides the coding, would be clipping and how it would navigate through the world. Fort keys and other objects without legs are enough trouble as it is. A new cursed chest is certainly welcome, it's been a while since we've had a new one to torment us.
@quack341 the theme among cursed chests is they provide some form of inconvience to the crew or the ship. I think the idea is cool but probably impossible to implement in this game.
A cool chest idea I have read from others is a trickster type chest. It randomly drops/raises your anchor/sails or locks the wheel similar to a cursed ball. Would love to see something like that given we have the fire/water hazards covered as well as a chest that is difficult to move.
Also, it wasn't the best all the time but the whole "capstan drops when hit with a cannonball" back in the day was pretty neat and kept crews on their toes.
@kommodoreyenser now like a poltergeist type chest would be interesting, just small ways to troll the ship lol
@drizkillz yeah having it move around would be tough. maybe instead of having it swim or run it just hates being on a pirate ship and it will jump overboard.

It still does if you only have 1 peg left on your capstan.
@pithyrumble
I'd like to see a Chest of Fury with a Zeus face on it. Carrying one would cause a small storm to spawn over your ship once in a while. If you add this chest kind of like a reaper's chest or a variation on bilge rat adventures, then people on servers would be expecting to see small storms popping up every now and then. In this way, you could get people to try to steal it more often.I also think it would be cool if cursed chests were used in Arena once in a while for the chest... But Rare won't touch Arena so it's just a thought.

That would be awesome chest! Maybe add chance of spawning ghosts onto your ship as well...
@blazebeard2313 little tiny miniature skellies that can climb the rigging and mess with the barrels and other interactable elements!
I know they couldn't do it, but imagine hundreds of skellys, or little skelly capuchin monkeys!
