Chest Buff Simple Idea (What should have been with the recent chest changes)

I think By Default, there should be 1-2 more extra chests without any coin offerings. Having only 3 base chests with one of them being in the basement just doesn't make sense anymore when you consider the amount of chest perks in the game now for both sides.

Survivors builds and killer builds would benefit a lot more.

    100% agree. MOG, and specialist need a bunch of chests and the newly buffed pharmacy makes chests perks more common. Even if two survivors bring one there’s not enough chests. Adding 2 to default or more should happen. Hoarder and human greed would also get more value

    I think the coin offerings should be retired and implemented into some of the Perks. Like Plunderers, Appraisal, and ace in the hole. They could each spawn one additional chest but make it where a Survivor can only spawn a max of +2 additional chests. Because right now has it stands there can be up to 13 chests in a Trial. 3 default +2 for each shiny coin so +8, and another +2 if the Killer brings Hoarder

    I'd make 5 or 6 total be the default

    It's definitely a good idea and definitely should be considered heavily, but there is a snag- chest spawns and killer object spawns are the same locations, so extra chests in a trial can mess up the placement of things like Sadako's TVs.

    I think the devs should work on separating those two things so that they can add more chests to the trial. In the meantime, though, they could add two extra chests that have static locations- inside shack and a second in the basement, maybe?

    There should be one extra chest.

    And, to avoid issues with killer props, they should take priority over chests.

    And and, buff Human Greed to give you 2 extra chests.

    Until they fix the bug with it taking over killer item spawns, no. It would make those killers unplayable.

    I’d make two chests in basement and 4-5 outside of it.

    Personally I'd make chests take 5 seconds to unlock base kit, and never include brown items or broken keys. It would never be as busted as having the ability to bring 4 of the strongest items with the strongest add ons at will every game.

    Chests should be everywhere. They could be better at providing an addictive gamble to the match in the form of a side objective. They should be worth their effort in giving survivors an incentive to not pound 5 gens in 4 minutes.
