So I loved the new mechanics brought in by the GP skeleton event, and I love how the skeletons spawn out of the ground holding an explosive barrel, and I know a lot of people have asked for some kind of reward for killing skeletons outside of OoS voyages, so here's my idea:
Occasionally, even if very rare, instead of an explosive barrel, a skeleton could spawn holding a random chest instead. They could be very difficult to kill, and obviously with their hands full the can't attack you, so maybe they could have a similar curse to the new mermaid statues that deal damage just from proximity. The chest could be randomized from the ones in the game already, or it could be a new kind of cursed chest to go along with the new cursed skeleton, and even after killing the skeleton, the chest could also deal damage while carrying it or when you're just really close to it.
What do you think?
