The Water Chest, a rare find underwater in various biomes, is a type of chest that can be found in pools of water greater than 250 tiles, particularly in the oceans. This includes smaller bodies of water such as lakes or even inside structures like houses, where it typically spawns alongside the standard treasure chest loot. While generally appearing similar to other chests, Water Chests can contain a variety of items unique to their type and are treasure troves of miscellaneous items commonly found in chests everywhere.
Uniques Items:
- Beach Balls: These round, ball-like treasures may be found in water chests and have a special beachfront theme to them.
- Trident: Although the trident is a common tool, finding one in a chest is relatively rare and is often associated with aquatic themes.
- Flipper: The flipper is a popular gaming item that is occasionally found in water chest puzzles or as a special reward.
- Breathing Reed: This reed-like implement may grant the player the ability to breathe underwater and could be a valuable resource or trade good.
- Walking Boots: When found in water, these boots allow the player to walk on the surface without drowning, making them a lifesaver in aquatic environments.
- Keg: Any container that holds liquid is fair game for players, and a water chest filled with alcohol-based beverages would be a valuable find.
- Diving Helmet: This item typically reserved for snorkeling adventures, the diving helmet allows the player to explore underwater in style, though it is not commonly found in water chests.
- Gallery: A collection of various treasures that are occasionally encountered in water chests can be considered highly sought after, especially by treasure hunters.
Rare Occurrence: In certain instances, a chest containing these unique items may appear inside a house, adding an extra layer of mystery and excitement for players.
