Buff chests
It's pretty commonly accepted fact that searching chests is just a waste of time. Buff default search speed from 10 seconds to 5 seconds, guarantee that items from chests are at least yellow and will never be maps or keys. It indirectly makes chest perks which are all pretty bad better and makes it so searching chests isn't throwing.

why when there are perks that can make items better?

I agree, chests are practically useless unless you're messing around with a silly build. Otherwise, I'm pretty sure they could remove chests altogether and nobody would notice.

I agree. I think 8 seconds to open is a better tradeoff though if you buff the contents rarities.

Base mechanics shouldn't be trash until a perk makes them viable.

No, chest are suppose be improved by perks. that is why perks like specialist, ace the hole, plunder instinct and appraisal exist. They just all suck. Like imagine if Ace the hole was giving brand new parts and Red syringes. Maybe than people would bother.

They should make ace in the whole basekit

Commenting again because this is even more relevant now that they have added even more sub par chest perks to the game. Chests are a total time sink. Even if you get a good toolbox it doesn't make up for the time spent searching for and opening the chest in like 90% of cases. Even getting a medkit 24 seconds heal + 10 seconds opening + 2 seconds pickup and open animations + travel time is probably more time than self care on it's own a famously terrible thing to do. Buffing search time to 5 seconds still wouldn't be worth your time to go out of your way to look for them but at least it could actually be worth opening them if you happen upon one while doing other things.

I would love these changes to chests, id also suggest allowing keys of all rarity to instantly open chests in exchange for a few charges.
