I really like the new chest system so far, drives more exploration for those dungeons. :dance:

Glad you like it! Xaltotun has been doing this for a while in his areas, and we now have a more general script that should allow it to be used more widely, with a little variation in the number of chests that occur, random traps, and a few other surprises. Hopefully we'll wind up randomizing everything except for the boss chests.

As a designer, it's really rewarding to find ways to make players approach dungeons more thoughtfully, explore more deeply, etc. Hopefully we can continue to add more systems like this which will encourage exploration, using RP skills to interact with the environment/have the environment react back, etc so it's very heartening to hear that the things we try are working. I hope we can add a few more "systems" like this over the coming weeks/months that will encourage players to explore everything the server has to offer.
