Chests in map?

[PewPew]

How many are there? And is it guaranteed to spawn per map?

[Travutopia]

Only 1 ever spawns in a mission and it's not guaranteed to spawn.
I saw someone on TA say they only have 5 specific possible spawn points but I'm not sure where they got that info...

I've only found 3 so far (but I don't remember my first one):
- Order Arboretum - near the SW rift on one of the gazebos on the edge of the map
- Island Observatory - on a balcony on the SE of the map near one of the enemy spawn points

[bleezle]

I found some in different locations on the same map (only ever 1 on the map but replaying the map they were in a different spot)

I wish we had more details on this. One of my kids spent a few hours running all over the maps trying to find the chest spawn and found nothing. The other found one in 5 minutes lol.

Adding on to what you've posted I've also found chests in different spots:
Order Arboretum: Where you spawn in there is a tree next to you on a small square garden that has a chest under the tree.
Island Observatory: I found 2 chests, 1 can spawn between both back rights (hard to miss) and 2. Down on the beach between the lanes at the water area that splits the beach.
Patio Gardens: 1 was located to the east side of the library up the stairs heading north in front of a statue.
Town Plaza: Found 2, 1 in the market spot to the left and the other south of the rift up the stairs between the second set of stairs going left and right.

Think I found others on Dry Docks and the mansion but can't recall them. Hadn't found any on the Castle Courtyards or Fish Markets yet and other maps I have no idea as I haven't gotten past the second boss yet.

Now they appear 100% of the times right? It would be convenient to have a screenie of each map's possible locations, as I heard each one has a few and it randomly appears in one or the other.

I'm not quite sure and so will be glad to be corrected, but I *think* it said the chance was raised by 100%.

Which is weird and they might have just gone "Chest will now always spawn" if that's the case - my read on this was that they just doubled the probability of it spawning;
And since I have no clue what it was before and so can't speak to current numbers, it would still mean that is doesn't every time.

But again, happy to be corrected on this.

The patch notes indicated that a chest will always spawn on every mission now, I can also confirm this acidotically as I have seen a chest on nearly (there was one that I simply couldn't find) every map I have played since the patch. Though there are multiple locations where a chest can appear at in each map and the current guide on here doesn't seem to have all of those locations yet.

The notes said the chance was raised TO 100%, not by 100%.

There is a chest on every map now Guaranteed.

[KellyR]

Yes, that's what "raised to 100%" means.

[Urgash]

Always one chest per map, but you gotta find it, i just unlocked the achievement for opening 10 chests, and by the look of it, not many people have done it for now.

Did that one before they raised the chest chance to 100%. Shame the card reward for it is sorta meh.

Sometimes the chest spawns where only certain characters can reach such as Max, Max or Kalos with their jump. So unlucky if ya solo and not any of the high jumpers.

One being castle courtyard in rift room, hard to see from even 2nd floor till I used Mac's lift.

Would be nice if chest had an icon on the lock to let you know what was in it, I don't like it when it is just skulls cause I feel it is not worth it sometimes compared to the cash

It has me wondering if there is a chance for chests to possibly bug out. A few days ago I was doing a run on Dry Docks and I searched the map top to bottom for like 30 minutes or so and couldn't find the chest at all. I was going as far as getting onto the rooftop of the warehouse and destroying the boxes and such in case it could be hiding behind something. Gave up and resumed my run eventually but it was weird.

One can spawn on the windmill area near the first orc spawn which is annoying, they shouldn't put chest spawns where some characters cannot reach at all
