Arcane Chest

Arcane Chests are ornate boxes located throughout the Abbey grounds. When gets close enough to a chest, their location is added to the map (with some exceptions).
Arcane Chests can be , , , or and require Arcane Keys to open by default. Most chests will periodically replenish their contents, and may be reopened later for new rewards (with some exceptions). A higher Arcane Level will grant more rewards in each Arcane Chest opened.
==Map Icons==
Arcane Chest map icons are color-coded to display their Rarity. In addition, the map icons will change depending on whether the chest is currently open or closed:
 A bright chest with this icon is currently closed, and may be opened to receive its contents.
 A dark chest with this icon is currently open, and has nothing left inside to obtain. It will be replenished after some time has passed in game, at which time its icon will change to the "closed" icon above.

=== Optimizing Rewards ===
Arcane Chest reward types are determined before opening the chest. After opening a chest, it is possible to reload an earlier save on the same day or night and open a chest of a different rarity instead. The next few chests will also have the same type of rewards. 
For example, if two chests are opened and give a Combat Item and then Credits, in this order; it is possible to reload a save before opening them and subsequently opening two chests instead, that will give a Combat Item and Credits, respectively.
As such, if the contents of the next five chests are known, it is possible to alternate chest rarities to get Combat Items or a Combat Bonus while using or chests to receive the less-desirable Credits or . Some chests of the same Rarity can also give different Combat Items or Combat Bonuses, but this is not guaranteed.
It is not known if there is a maximum number of chests that are predetermined or if rewards are diminished after opening a large number of Chests.

=== Arcane Chests ===
Look for Arcane Chests on the Abbey Grounds, and unlock them with Arcane Keys. Arcane Chests reset periodically, so return to previously opened chests to see if you can open them again. The higher your Arcane Level, the more rewards each Arcane Chest will have.
