One of the most common questions I get asked is, "What is a chest?" usually followed by "Where can I find them?"

The first part is easy, a chest is an event that randomly appears on a map. They require certain special keys in order to open them and retrieve the items held inside.

The keys can be bought with either Allegiance Tokens Posted Image or Gold Posted Image through the 'Loyalty' section of the 'Upgrades' menu on the left hand toolbar.

There are FOUR keys available.

Posted Image This is the Bronze key. It costs 50 Posted Image or 250,000 Posted Image
Posted Image This is the Silver key. It costs 200 Posted Image or 1,000,000 Posted Image
Posted Image This is the Gold key. It costs 500 Posted Image or 5,000,000 Posted Image
Posted Image This is the Crystal key. It costs 1000 Posted Image or 10,000,000 Posted Image



The 'where' is a little harder to answer however. The chests follow no pattern to their appearance, they are completely random.

They do not show up in the map section of the world screen as some people believe, they show up in the creature lists.

Much like Champions/Elites/Super Elites and Titans they always show up at the very top of the list.

Below is a list of all the chests available in FS, the keys required to open them and the items that can be found inside.

(Note the items are clickable links, these will take you to the relevant pages within the UFSG)

Posted ImageAlchemists Chest - Posted Image Potion of Genius Gatherer.

Posted ImageBlack Iron Chest - Posted Image / Posted Image Blue Lightning Boots / Obsidian Rune.

Posted ImageBronze Studded Chest - Posted Image / Posted Image Flaming Dragon Shield / Scintillating Gem Amulet.

Posted ImageBone Inlaid Chest - Posted Image / Posted Image Spirit Tainted Boots / Spirit Tainted Gloves.

Posted ImageCanopic Chest - Posted Image Khufuteps Death Boots.

Posted ImageCursed Chest - Posted Image Sir Marells Cursed Shield.

Posted ImageGladiators Chest - Posted Image Helm of Gaiustus.

Posted ImageIridescent Chest - Posted Image Rainbow Gem of Gallah.

Posted ImageIron Bound Chest - Posted Image Gem of Tyche.

Posted ImageGold Inlayed Chest - Posted Image / Posted Image Brass Demon Helm / Ruby Red Ring.

Posted ImageRune Engraved Chest - Posted Image / Posted Image Chameleon Gloves / Pulsing Heart Armor.

Posted ImageSolid Bronze Chest - Posted Image Ring of Dual Bronze.
Posted ImageSpirit Chest - Posted Image Sword of Emerald Fire.

Posted ImageSteel Chest - Posted Image / Posted Image Armor of Astraio / Reborn Leaf Staff.

Posted ImageTwisted Chest - http://fileserver.hu.../items/8909.gif Zipporino the Crazy's Amulet.

http://fileserver.hu.../items/8545.gifWooden Chest - http://fileserver.hu.../items/8564.gif Potion of Blessed Sanctum.


On a final note, some people believe that when a chest contains more than one possible item the outcome is determined by whether you use Allegiance Tokens http://fileserver.hu...kin/loyalty.gif or Gold http://fileserver.hu...old_button.gif. This is a myth, I have never once used gold to purchase a key and have obtained all of the items available.

Nicely done. I have never seen a chest and this answered alot of questions I didnt know if anyone knew lol.


Just for the sake of curiousness-

Much like Champions/Elites/Super Elites and Titans they always show up at the very top of the list.

If Im on Naral (West) and there is a Wickerman(Titan), a Cursed Samurai (Super Elite),Naral Pegasus (Champion), and a Chest all on the same loc, do you have any clue based on experience what order they would be listed in? I mean, I would imagine it would be in that order listed, but I could see the chest working its way to the top since its, well, not a creature.

So far I've never come across it, I'd also assume the chest would be on top of everything. If it ever happens I'll try to get some screenshot evidence.
