Chests (Sweg's Series)

Ace of Dragons' game of Break the Chest: Deluxe switched up the chest types somewhat, sorting chests by rarity alone. This allowed for the different types of chests to be much more useful as the game progressed, as their loot scaled with the game's progression. Of course, rarer chests still contained many items, most of which were very powerful. In addition, the rarer chests also have ways to defend themselves from players who attack them.

The strength of a chest varies throughout the game, as chests and enemies are made stronger to compensate for the players being stronger as well. The different stats are denoted as follows: **Normal text** for initial stats, **orange text** for post-Wall of Flesh stats, and **red text** for post-Calamitas stats.

## **Normal Chests**

This is the standard progression for chests. Players receive these chests after defeating all the enemies in the area, and the rarity of the chest depends on how powerful the enemies were. The higher-tier chests tend to require bosses to be defeated in order to obtain them.

If defeating a weaker enemy rewards a powerful chest, players should be careful - it is likely a mimic. Mimics hit much harder than normal chests do, and are capable of counterattacking while they are disguised; otherwise, they function fairly similarly to normal chests, and drop the loot from their corresponding chest tier.
