Chest (Save the World)

Chests are In-Game Loot Crates that can reward you with Weapons, Crafting Materials, and Evolution Materials. Chests will often be guarded or in the vicinity of Monsters.

How To Find
Chests are small and made of wood, with metal around the outer edges. Safes, on the other hand, are much taller and look like a bank vault with a hand-crank door handle on the outside. Other safes may be darker in color and much smaller. Chests and safes will emit a faint beige glow, which will help you spot them much easier. The valuable chests and safes are usually out of plain sight. Be sure to look high and low as you may encounter these in the most obsecure Strange Places.

Listen For A Chest
Like many mission objectives that produce a sound when nearby, chests and safes also have a faint sound when you are close enough. This is one of the best ways to find chests and safes, as sometimes they are hidden behind breakable walls and are otherwise out of sight. Turn up your in-game audio and wear a headset while searching. If you hear a chest sound behind a wall or somewhere nearby, get ready to tear down any walls or obstructions that might be in your way, and snag whatever precious loot you find before someone else does.

Mission Rewards
Upon completing a successful mission, chests can also be acquired based on your Mission Score. The Chest will be available to open on the Mission Rewards screen.

Chests
Chests are scattered around all missions in places and even Strange Places. You might ask what is defined as a Strange Place? Strange Places make up areas that are sometimes meant/meant to not be found. For example, a room or a floor only shows what is on/in. But breaking the floor or the wall may reveal an adventurous area to explore! Outlanders are perfect for discovering loot, as one of the abilities allows the player to view the rarity of objects through floors and walls.

Storm Chest
Storm chests are kill progressive objectives during missions. Upon opening a Storm Chest there are a total of 3 waves that are all timed over a minute. If all 3 waves are completed, there is double rewards.
 * Wave 1 = Kill 25 enemies before the time runs out.
 * Wave 2 = Kill 50 enemies before time runs out. If you complete Wave 2, the time is stopped.
 * Wave 3 = Kill 2 Mist Monsters.

Large Safes
Large safes are usually found in Strange Places. These Safes are of rarity and above. Large safes may or may not include a cache.

Mimics
Mimics are a monster that are disguised as a Level 3 Chest. While opening, the chest will open faster, make noise, and stretch/squash. Opening the chest immediately spawns in a Mimic at that location. Mimics are Lobbers with a Level 3 Chest as their heads. Mimics have a great deal of health and can be quite effective in damaging or downing you. Successfully defeating a mimic, will reward everyone who is nearby.

Trivia
