    ok i just did a test on a town scare spawn (Skara Brae) and hardly anyone except bots playing, so not sure if this affects chest spawn too?

    1hour with 2990 luck in Trammel

    Chests obtained 35 based on gold at end / 1500 as average as i wasnt counting

    4 treasures, 3 from pet kills (2 from boss) 1 from chest 1/35 chance?

    Chests defined as :

    1 - bag smoke bombs gold and picks
    2 - as above but paragon reagents in bag
    3 - manifestation deco and gold
    4 - gravestone or ingots or treasure and gold
    5 - gold and stealable

    Loot : see picture

    52k gold
    24 lvl1 chests - 70%
    3 lvl2 chests - 8%
    5 lvl3 chests - 14%
    3 lvl4 chests-  8%
     0 lvl5 chest - 0%

    So does luck affect chest lvl?

    It this actually worth it vs logging a basic sampire and hitting anything that moves and getting 20+ treasure (except Atlantic?)

    The answer:  Do you play for fun or profit?  Did you get either?

    Your talking to a guy watching a bear hit Gegorio over and over for hours to gain a couple of Chivalry points.  No drops.
    Focus on what you can do, not what you can't.

    And not just any Luck, I heard, but also 2.3k - 2.5k Luck at least, to get better loot...

    And it is not easy at all, to have a Rogue with all those skills (and thus needing skill points items) and 2.3k - 2.5k Luck...

    Could you please detail how you got to 2,990 Luc on your suit ?

    Thanks !

    @popps care to share your skill window of that thief of urs?
    So rather than recognise the effort the botters went to, to set all that up - for the benefit of the players, to help get certain items, something you could never be bothered to do, you would rather drag people backwards to your neanderthal world?

    Has anyone confirmed that luck even affects the event chest loot? 

    I did a few days running around with a tamer I'd fixed detect hidden and lock pick on. I got garbage from the hidden chests with ~2400 luck. 

    I've run around on my pure thief with ~100 luck and gotten about the same. 

    I imagine if luck affects the event chest loot, it just gives you a slightly better chance at RNG. but 1% more of 0.001% chance is still not in your favor. It probably works like the chromatic totems. I went 1200/1400 charges into a Gwenno's killing only nightmares before I saw any purple horse. Every charge was used while a totem was up to disco/kill a nightmare and I probably missed a few due to skill cooldowns and my beetle sometimes two shotting them.

    Good thing Remove Trap took 45min to train.. i would have been pissed; training RT to end up 3x tele all the chests.. with RT i got poisoned +58 dmg.. I ended up at my house trying to cure the thief on the paladin.. after I have failed on arch cure & g. cure.

    And yes, I died in my own house from that.  :s

    Ok test 2 Vesper, by far the best town for hidden chests apart from Minoc which doesnt appear anymore?

    2390 luck (Fortunes Visage (250), Yukios Earrings (125), Medable gourget (100) , Etoile blue ring (150), Bracelet with Stealth/Stealing (100), 190 luck SC buckler, Royal guard survial knife (140), hooded robe blackthorn (140),Lucky Charm (150), Shadow Reaver cloak (125) , Medable legs (190), Armor of Fortune (200), Medable arms (190), Medable gloves (190) , Minax Sandles (150)

    roughly 100 chests lost count and couldnt be bothered to collect gold as its a waste of time

    75 lvl 1 chests - 
    11 lvl 2 chests
    6(9)  lvl3 chests - treasure maps pretty pointless but will stick in this category
    5 lvl4 chests - all sanctum treasures this time other 9 were from pet kills
    0 lvl5 chests

    Loot below...you decide if worth it or not

    Towns not worth bothering with :

    Nujelm - too big
    Trinsic - too big and too many monsters
    Moonglow - yea good luck with that
    Yew - too big
