Guaranteed Blue Drop Treasure Chest?
Posted: Wed Dec 01, 2010 2:32 pm
I was just running around winterspring when a guildy mentioned finding a treasure chest in Northrend, well I'm not sure if most of you know but until 4.0.3 or 4.0.3a there weren't any treasure chests in Northrend. This guildy remarked that they found a rare wand inside and some gold. I did some digging and found that there is a new type of treasure chest around Azeroth and Northrend. I'm not sure if this chest replaces the old chests or if its just a rare spawn. It seems to have a GUARANTEED BLUE drop.
I had forgotten all about it but recently I spent some time in STV and found one of these new chests and inside of it was Amy's Blanket a lv 20-30 something (i forget) blue.
Now I went running around Winterspring after I realized this, looking at the possible spawn points on wowhead and heres what I found.

Note: Sturdy Treasure Chest.
And when we look inside?

So keep an eye out or maybe look at the "cheat sheet" on wowhead.

PS I also want to include that on wowhead a comment suggested that the treasure chest rewards experience upon opening. Northrend chests possibly reward 50k experience per chest.. this is complete speculation. I don't have a character in that level range so I cannot confirm with certainty.
