Found this chest while exploring Burning Steppes after the shattering. We were around the Altar of Storms when we found it. My friend opens it and to both of our surprise it held an Orb of Deception. Nothing else. Luckily, he already had one and passed it to me. Neither of us could really believe it. I regret not taking a screenshot of it before it despawned, as this chest doesn't seem to have any information on it thus far, except from what my friend and I found.

I have seen this chest twice now, also just since The Shattering. Both of them were found in Un'Goro crater. One was nearby the insect colonies and the other was in the gorilla cave. On my 72 Death Knight, opening the chests rewarded me with blue-quality items and 1900 exp.

I found one of these in Zul'Drak with Zabra's Misplaced Staff inside. Could these be the replacement for the old chests?

Replaces http://www.wowhead.com/object=207484#comments in more desolate zones, and serves the same purpose. Replaced with http://www.wowhead.com/object=207496#comments in parts of zones occupied primarily by Dark Iron Dwarves.

It seems every chest contains at least 1 blue item. I got Fossile Kamelkeule out of one. The chests should give a nice income when farming other stuff. Just make sure you have an addon pointing on the location of these chests, or be a d0rf.

Can someone tell me if there's a mod or addon to find them easier?

Kommentar von 93415

Found in the Ruins of Uldum - better known as Valley of the Watchers (Tanaris).

Found one of these just now. It was in Twilight Highlands on the path right by the Wetlands where all those Twilight's Hammer Horses are running around in the fire. Found a Ravenheart Longbow. Pretty nice.

Note: Not sure if this determines anything or not for that one area, but I haven't done any quests in Twilight Highlands on the character I found it on--meaning I hadn't phased yet.

Found one inside the Chamber of the Stars in Uldum - it had a Robes of Whispering Sands and 121,000 XP in it...

Looks like you get XP equivalent to the area you find it in - lots of XP if you get one in a high-level area!

As I started doing my first quests in Uldum, I came across one of these chests next to where Kavem The Callous stands, just inside the little building to his right. Inside I looted some gold along with a Tuch aus Tausend Bandagen.

Check the area up and behind Deathclasp in Silithus, there's often a chest there.

Kommentar von 858689

Found 2 today alone, one in Lost City of the Tol'vir where you quest at when you get "captured" by the Pigmies. Contained Zulian Swirling Shield, pretty rare drop from what wowhead says. The other I found at The Pit of Scales where you have to "Free" Tahet from his bindings by killing an elite by making him walk over the eggs so the baby crocolisks can kill him. That one dropped Woundsealer Spaulders. Each gave roughly 1g.

I found one in a cave in the blasted lands with a rare creature being the only other thing in the cave

It appears that these types of chests share a global cooldown for looting. I haven't timed my experience yet but soon after opening a chest, I found another one but wasn't able to interact with it. Later on I found another chest and still couldn't open it.

Here is a guide on how to get this:

1: Get Gathermate2 and Gathermate2_Data from curse.com wow addons. ( Import the data from your gathermate console ingame and make sure you filter to only see SIilken Treasure and Sturdy Treasure Chests.
2. Make your map big.
3. Take the portal to Uldum. Fly to Silithus and check all the chests there. Then fly to Un'Guru Crater just next to Silithus and fly through all the Gathermate chest spots. You will atleast now have looted 2-6 Treasure chests as there can be a maximum of 3 per zone and they have a 24 hour respawn.
4.Hearth to your city and take the portal to Blasted lands. Check all the chests there and remember always go inside the caves and check the spots.
5.Fly to Swamp of sorrows just above blasted lands and check the 4 spots there aswell. Now fly north to Burning Steppes( I got 2 orbs here personally). This is a good place and the orb has a higher chance to get looted here as the level of the zone matches the orb well.
6. Lastly , Go to Winterspring and check all the chests there.

By going through all of this 6 zones you might get your Orb . If not try again in 25 hours.

You will atleast loot 6+ chests in all 6 zones if not alot more on lower population servers. Remember to go to Burning Steppes always because the chance is higher in there. Do not be fooled by the 0.9 % drop rate as there are alot of items that gets randomed from the chests and the orb is one of them so the chances are not that bad it is more about luck. 12 zones for me was 2 orbs. Good Luck. Do not give up. You wont get the orb from any other zone not listen above.

So, you've found a treasure chest, and you want to know what's up?

Well, this may be old news, but after extensive personal research, I have some information on these chests, including the different types, the rewards, and tips if you wish to hunt them further.

Some of you may recall treasure chests that existed back in Vanilla (and through the Lich King, though no chests were added to northrend until later). They typically were full of garbage, maybe a gem, maybe a green, but usually food and an earthroot or something. Those don't exist anymore (aside from in the vanilla dungeons that have yet to be revamped). Now, once the Cataclysm hit, we have new chests, rarer, and with better rewards than ever before!

They exist in essentially every zone, and currently they have 6 different types:

How do I find them?

Currently, all of them are being tracked with the addon Gathermate2, but the Gathermate2_data doesn't seem to include the Dark Iron or Maplewood chests, though it'll still mark it on your map if you find them. I'm sure they'll be added soon. If you plan on doing any serious treasure hunting, I highly advise this addon.

You might remember chests in the past being vastly oversized and cartoony. They were easy to spot. Now, not so much. Some of them (especially the Runestone) blend into the surroundings like any other decorative box. Without a trained eye, you may not notice them. You'll need to move your cursor around and check very carefully. There is almost always an enemy near them. In many cases, rares love to hang out near chest spawn areas, which can net you even more loot!

Much like mines and herbs, treasures also seem to spawn in node clusters. That is, it might have 2-4 spawn locations in a small area, and it will only spawn at one of them at a given time. However, this is tricky, as it's hard to tell where the node cluster ends and a new one begins. For example, in Zangarmarsh, one would think every Naga "village" would be one cluster, but I've found 2 chests at a single village before. Your best bet is to check every spawn location until you're relatively sure it's part of the same node. If multiple nodes exist in a cave (chests love to be in caves), they're probably the same node cluster.

For respawn rate, I don't have any solid numbers, but I know I've never seen a chest spawn in the same locations less than 18 hours since I looted it last, but I'm more inclined to think they have a 24 hour respawn time. Most chests tend to be in the path of many leveling players, so it's quite possible that other people will find them before you. Just keep looking. Which brings me to this topic...

Why should I hunt these things?

If you're anything like me, you might actually enjoy the hunt, the excitement of finding a chest, find it a relaxing change of pace from the rest of this game and need no further incentives. However, if that's not enough for you, worry not, there are very good reasons to look for them.

Here's the big one: They give experience now! So even while you're out questing, you should check nearby spots for a quick, tasty lump of experience. They seem to give approximately 2x the amount of XP that a normal quest in that zone gives you. And naturally, if you outlevel the zone, you'll get reduced XP. Also, like mining/herbalism, higher level ones DO cap off on how much XP they can give you, so don't get any bright ideas about gaining 10 levels with a single chest from max level zones.

But wait, there's more: The contents! Of course, we can't forget the very reason chests exist to begin with! Well, unlike Vanilla chests, these always have decent loot. That is, you are guaranteed to get a Rare (blue) quality item in each chest, the level being relevant to the level of the zone that you found it. So far, I've never seen a purple. There are a few exceptions: sometimes in Northrend you will find a Book of Glyph mastery, which is green, but those are currently more valuable than most blues anyway. The general rule, however, is that you'll find a blue in each one. While this may not seem too spectacular, remember that many blues have unique skins and may still be valued for transmog purposes.

Chest hunting is by no means the best way to make money, and it's not the best way to get experience, but it's darn fun. And even if it's not your thing, I would highly recommend taking a look around you every now and again when you're our in the world to see if a chest is nearby. You might find something you want inside.

Happy hunting!
