Lost Strongbox and Frozen Chest
Posted: January 17th, 2006, 5:04 pm
By now, I think alot of you people know about the Lost Strongbox outside of Thunderhead Keep, but both of these are better, and more profitable.
In Dreadnaught's Drift, there are 2 chests. Lost Strongbox, and Frozen Chest. The Lost Strongbox in Dreadnaught's Drift drops ALOT more items than the Lost Strongbox outside of Thunderhead Keep, and the quality is better. As you may be aware, the Lost Strongbox can drop ANY item, with any name.
The Lost Strongbox here is heavily guarded by loads of Stone Summit, including Heretics, so I've found an I-monk with Spellbreaker to be effective.
That's not all, there is still one more chest here. The Frozen Chest is on the higher ground on Dreadnaught's Drift. It drops multiple armors, mostly white and blue, with the possibility of Purple or Gold (I've gotten a Superior Vigor from it).
After reaching a certain point around the chest, several Tundra Giants will come swarming you. These are very farmable, and an I-monk with Balanced Stance and Shield of Judgement should make quick work of them.
I'd like to add that coming in from Snake's Dance is closer to the Frozen Chest, and there are lots of Tundra Giants (and Blessed Griffons) to greet you. These can be farmed, and I've gotten 5 golds from these Giants, and the Giants in Snake's Dance.
If this get's accepted, I will be able to make a more detailed guide about how to do the run, and will provide pictures.
