Guild Wars 2

Guild Wars Nightfall introduced us to “Treasures”. At spefic locations in the game players could loot a burried treasure, a grave chamber or something similar (sometimes locked behind some Grave Guards). The loot was not huge, comparable to 50 silver and a rare weapon-/armorpiece. Also, when looted, the it took about a month to dig out another treasure.

We kinda have something similar in Guild Wars 2 (locked doors in Dredgehount Cliffs), but it feels different (you need a key and the loot is bad). But I really like the idea of having treasure chests we can hunt, maybe accidentally running in a location changing and rewarding loot box.

Opinions?

Yep, those were a lot of fun. In GW2, we have way too many reward systems in place already, with a variety of mechanics. So, as much fun as the old concept would be compared to the current mechanics, introducing this in addition to what we already have would be over the top.

P.S. IMO, they need to simplify, and most importantly, unify the basic reward systems all across Tyria (not talking about map currencies here but everything else).

Well, there were Treasure Chests in the Path of Fire demo. I don’t remember what loot I received from them. There were Treasure Chest maps, as well. And Piles of Bones that awarded Keys for the Loot Boxes. Plus more, I think.

The Wiki probably has most things listed.

Good luck.
