I've been fishing up chests and was wondering if you could maybe raise the quiality of the gear in them a little. I've fished up serveral chests and the loot is stuff i wouldn't keep on OSI. So in an attemp to make them almost worth getting could you plz up it some. THX MUCH

Not a bad idea. Think fishing fell outside the chest loot quality area. We did bump up treasure chests and dungeon chests so I don't see why fishing chests should fall outside that change.

in general i think all types of chests should be pumped WAYY higher. they require making a VERY specific charact template (that is pretty much only good for chests) and it takes the time to make the lockpicks, and its much more work to go from chest to chest, than monster to monster, or even to just wait for one monster to respawn. It takes more times, so i think chests should have better loot than most mosnters. Just my oppinion anyways.

Yeah we bumped the dungeon ones, though not sure how often they're spawning, its one thing we still have to go around and do. When a chest is emptied it vanishes later then another spawns. Theres different levels and most spawn randomly as well.

I had started spawning those then realized how large that task was. Also, there was an issue with the spawners back then which is now fixed up so I could very well finish the rest of the dungeons.

All in all, chest loot should be bumped. I'm even thinking of adding some special perks to cartographers and treasure hunters who love to go treasure hunting. I'm thinking some decoration items or items with special engravings. Things like "A golden statue of a famous poet" and such. Nothing too fancy, but collectible items.

yea, level 4/5/6 tmaps should DEFFINATLEY get a major boost. lots of work overall to get the chest, should deffinatley give better than normal loot.

Talks are underway about breathing life into the cartography system. I had a really good idea, just seeing what everyone else thinks.

One of my favorite Characters of all time was a guy i named Capt. Jook i created him on a whim and was a treasure hunter/fisher and was in a pirate RP guild and we did at least 1 adventure a week doing all the maps my guildies could get their hands on and all the SOSs I couold fish up. It was a blast.I have never had as much fun on any other char as that drunken pirate treasure hunter,

Couldn't do much solo because with fishing lockpicking and cart in my template didnt leave much room for any full combat capabilty, but it was fun. My Template was Fish/Cartography/Lockpick/Swords/Tact/Anat/Heal

The sowrds is cuz it was a requirement of the guild to be able to use cutlass, id prolly do it mage/eval/med/Spellweave here or something like that. But yea, one reason i havent built a hunter here is I was told that loot for it blows. and a lvl 5 and 6 map are prettymuch impossible to solo with that template. I mean it COULD be done, but definately not easily enough to make it worth it without some pretty awesome loot.

I also remember running into a Paragon AW with that char and running away healing and crying, but thats a different story. Actually made a comic of Capt. Jook for a few weeks.

So what Im saying is Pump the loot on treasure chests and I will be down for some mad huntin! Woot!

In my runebook library that I didn't get a chance and is partly obsolete now, has the trammel treasure map locations. I'm going to rework my ligrary to skip some of the redundancy of the new runebook library.

Oh, and I'm all for bumbing loot in treasure maps and stuff. treasure maps used to be a great small group activity that could be done a little quicker than a champ, but still hard enough that it was fun.

If you want to add in those treasure chest spots go nuts. I likely won't spend time marking all those locations for the public rune library.

Also this is one of those undocumented little features. All of T2A trammel can randomly have chests through out the map.

neat, i think pumpinh chest loot way up will make a lot of people try out a lock picker/cartographer/fisher, get some goodies from chests =]. I can't wait.

In the future there will be more incentive for players to make cartographers and fishermen. Cooks will also get a boost later on. I've been going around and trying to think of ways to breathe some life into unused/unpopular skills.
