Have the theifs guild treasure boxes been removed?

dsmi2k · November 2016

Since the update to One Tamerial I haven't seen any of the purple glowing theifs guild treasure boxes around. This was a great source of decent kit and partly why I got the expansion pack.
Have they been removed?

They're still there.

No, I saw one on top of the orcs finger entrance

borgking · November 2016

I;ve opened 3 or 4 today

They are there. But there are way more people to share them with now.

Before each region had at least 3 instances for each "origin" alliance population. Now it seems it is only one instance for everybody most of the time.

I just found 3 or 4 of them last night and i wasn't even looking.

Your chances highly depend on how busy the zone is you're in, same goes for pretty much any other sought after asset.

TBH...the trove rewards are crap anyway...unless anyone can tell me they've found something special in one?
best I've ever got was a green cuirass which was no good for the class I play.

They now scale with your TG level. My main treasure hunter character has both Legerdemain and Thieves Guild maxed and he has indeed found a fair amount of good items in those troves.

Its ONE-TAMRIEL! Everyone's roughly in the same "instance" .... the nodes are get harvested quickly. Not respawning adequately. - Thus why you likely never see one.
Also, likely some FARMING BOTS grabbing em up swiftly. Those damn BOTS!
eh!?!

I found around 10 Theifs guild treasure boxes this weekend while exploring and questing and 3 had purple quality rings, VERY NICE!

I've found gear I sold for decent coin and boxes that drop 10 blue treasures I turn around and fenced for several thousand gold. Pretty good considering you just run into them randomly.

Troves drop set items from the zone they are in. They can drop weapons which are often the most frustrating drop in zones. The items are flagged as stolen so launder anything worth having.
