In the MMO shooter Destiny there are now first images and videos of one of the last secrets: the treasure room in the “Prison of Elders.” What is in the large chest that requires treasure keys? What rewards await in the Prison of Elders?
The preview videos of the “Prison of Elders” always ended when the last boss fell. There was never a scrap of loot to be seen. This was because the YouTubers who were guests at Bungie were not allowed to show the “treasure room”. This restriction apparently just expired a few hours ago – probably around midnight Pacific time.
Now videos about the “treasure room” in the Prison of Elders are surfacing and players are excited. They say it’s totally over the top, something like the treasure chamber of a pharaoh, according to the videos.
There is a large chest to see. At the moment, it is still unclear what exactly will be included for each Guardian. It seems that, depending on the level of the challenge, a weapon or armor core is guaranteed to be inside. With those, you can buy the special legendary weapons and armors from Variks that he has available. Variks’ offerings are said to change every week.
Additionally, it seems that there is a “legendary weapon of the queen” and … um … it looks like an exotic weapon. We will have to wait until more Guardians have been involved and stocked up to see how high the chances are of drawing these weapons here. One of the YouTubers even speaks of a “guaranteed chance”, of “guaranteed exotics.” It would of course be a sensation for many players if that were the case.
Bungie certainly did not skimp on the loot. Instead of rewarding players gradually during the runs, everything is packed at the end into a massive loot rush. The small chests are said to contain glimmer and materials, while the large ones contain the real treasures. This “large chest” is opened with the treasure key. All the essential information about this key and how you can find more of them, you can read in this article.
