Reaper’s chests and bountys despawn too soon

@fox-gr said in Reaper’s chests and bountys despawn too soon:

In seven years, reaper beacons despawned before I could reach them around 3/4 times in total.

Since season 17, the chests despawn A LOT more frequently, this happened to me 5 times in three days. I literally have NO TIME to reach the place.

Perhaps someone got there first and buried it ?

Frustrating, considering that right now is the only way to obtain these two kinds of treasures.

They still are in the vault of the FotD aren't they ? And I assume still a possible treasure when you do the voyage of an emergent skellie captain.

No, they were simply disappeared in open sea.
And no, for this season only you can find them only in the smugglers shipwrecks

I guess people pick them up but don't take them with them as their vessel is loaded with smuggler items, making it disappear more quickly then when would be if it was left undisturbed. Or the timer of the smuggler wrecks is shorter ?

Aye, you're right:

For the duration of Season 17, the Reaper’s Chest and Reaper’s Bounty are now exclusively found within sunken Smugglers’ Shipwrecks and no longer found within the Fort of the Damned.

@lem0n-curry maybe you’re right. Some players might interact with the chest then let it float because not needed, and after 10 minutes it despawns

You can also still get them from island skelly captain digs. I got one last night and I was surprised, I thought they were supposed to be exclusive to wrecks, as well.

@realstyli seriously?? I’ll give it a try

@fox-gr
Yep. Seriously. You are still dealing with RNG though. (It was an island that I dived to, not sure if that affected anything)
