Deep Sea Loot Crate Question [CENTER MAP]

[Tinytombomb]

I'm interested in searching for a bunch of deep sea loot crates for the high tier loot on The Center, but have no real clue of where they are located and whether or not there is an easier way to get them. There's also been a new map update but I cannot find the proper coords anymore.

Is it possible to block some of them so they spawn in certain spots only? Also how long do these loot crates take to respawn?

Any info on them would be great. Thanks

You can change the map to see all the 3 maps sea drops.

Are they all correct? Seems like so many loot drops

Dont know, have not test it to see if they are all at the marked spots.

The map is correct as of 247.99. All of the locations can be blocked using a foundation except the two that are in the dark underwater crater caves (67.7 / 88.3 and 74.4 / 84.5). I blocked off all of them and just keep a raft near the crater with a bed, some scuba gear, and an ichthy.

Awesome I'll hop on singleplayer and test that out. Can you block the ones on lava too? And how do you know where to place foundations exactly?

You can block all locations except the two I mentioned, including those on top of the volcano. I used a GPS to find the exact location and placed a foundation down. I have been looting them for about two weeks now and they are always there.

Sweet. So, block all but ones on mountain and the two caves (which I presume are in that tear in the bottom with ice crystals etc). Then they should spawn frequently at all locations?

And how long did this take you roughly haha? Seems to be taking forever to find them, go below and find where they'd spawn to block them off.

Since only two exist at one time, I block all but the two I was unable to block (by the crystals). I initially left the the two on the volcano open as well but it became tedious flying out to check, then finding only one there, then going back and diving to get the other. I do this every 45 minutes unless I am in the middle of something.

It took me a couple of hours mostly because anglers and eurypterids kept attacking me. On the plus side though is I now have plenty of angler gel.

Is there any server setting to stop players 'blocking' the deep sea chest spawn locations?

Ah okay, so I guess I'll just block all but those two and leave the volcano ones? Or is blocking the volcano ones a better option too?

I only have an icthy atm since I'm finding it hard getting larger ones haha.. so is this all I need to speed through with a GPS and place foundations? Or is it better to place a boat with a bed at each coords and swim down?

iirc for center, 2 listed are outside the world border. the others are accurate.

So I can't block the 2 outside world border? o.O

Alright, so I legit just blocked them, and get told by a friend that they've stopped this from being a thing, and you cant block them anymore. Is this true?
