I was just joking with my friends. The other about the chest of fortune and I put out this idea that sounded really funny like in the sky, the cloud could be the mermaid or something, and they put the chest of fortune in a ocean shrine or an ocean Treasury either would be Good and we were joking about it and then it got really serious. It's about how cool that would be fighting through waves of ocean crawlers. It'd be like the tall tale lords of the sea where ocean shrine would pop up or treasury out of the water and you'd have to fight through everything , not ghost ships of course too far and fight for the treasure inside and the chest of fortune is sitting there on the coral pedestal
Next place they could put the chest of fortune
I wish they would make more use of the shrines / treasuries but you would have to leave someone on your boat otherwise someone would come sink you and then go down to finish you off. Yeah you keep respawning down there but if someone used the mermaid statue it is GGs.
I think they should use the shrines / treasuries more often, but for the CoF lol
I'd like to see it back in the Fleet of Fortune. Granted last time the skelly ships were a little bit bugged, but it was still fun.
Ideally, I'd keep it in the Fort of Fortune as guaranteed, but give a small chance of it appearing in the loot pools of other world events. Use the recent ashen athena skeleton fort event as a guide line. Something like a 10% chance of a spawn at an organic world event and 5% at raid voyages (just rough figures). I'm personally up to date in my Chests of Fortune, but a new player might find the current 240 very daunting, and presumably it will eventually increase to at least 300 if not more. A little bit of a boost at this stage with the high numbers required wouldn't be the worst thing in the world.
I’d like to see the Chest of Fortune randomly placed across any of the world events, rather than just being moved around occasionally. You wouldn’t know where it is until you complete the event.
It could be set to appear in one main event, but all other events could have a small chance of containing it too. Even a low percentage would give players a reason to revisit less popular or weaker events with bad loot, making them actually worth doing and keeping gameplay more varied and rewarding.
How would this be fair to an incoming ship though? Let's say I finish the event, my crew sees you coming. I simply put the chest in a mermaid statue, and now you can't get it no matter what. All we have to do is scuttle to new seas, sail back over to the location, talk to mermaid and no one on that new server knows.
Not exactly fair for other ships to try and contest it.@burnbacon I actually agree with you for once. It would incentivise more people to actually do world events. Actually fight megs, actually care about kraken fights, so on.
@europa4033 like I said it could be like the lord's of the sea tall tail no mermaid statue and you gotta fight to the top

This is an excellent idea. Have a random chance to spawn in all world events, with the chance increasing with every completed event. Then if the world event despawns with the CoF in it a FOF is the next one. Now its worth staying on a server and grinding wolf event's. One change, on the Burning blade, make the loot locked behind the gate until you defeat the ship.
Isn't this supposed to be the case already? Aren't all (not player spawned by diving) supposed to have a small chance to have more high valued loot including a CoF?

As far as I know, no. The CoF just gets moved between world events sometimes with updates. Let me know if you find any proof that all world events have a small chance to include a CoF.
I searched, couldn't find it. So I might be wrong. I honestly thought I read it in a patch notes somewhere. That's a little disappointing.
