Treasure chests loot tables

Eas007

So how do treasure chest loot tables work? Regarding Orsinium we have 3 sets of 10 pieces each that can drop, not to mention all the different traits.

A guy I know went on treasure chests runs for 8h in Orsinium and got all 3 sets in V16. Currently I'm entering my 24h(!) and still haven't got one set!!! Only difference that might be there, not sure though, is that he has enough champion points to get the passive that improves treasure chest drops.

Also noticed something while doing my runs and would like to see this confirmed. I started as magicka player and got Trinimac's Valor and Pariah pieces. Halfway through all those hours of chest runs I switched to stamina and started getting Briarheart pieces. Are the loottables linked to your current gear/build?

Thx beforehand on anyone who can constructivly comment on this.

Sorry too late to edit

Legerdemain went from 4 to 10 and wasted over 300 lockpicks to give you an idea how long I've been doing this. And that's Wrothgar chests only. This yielded me, hang on to your socks!, 4 V16 pieces and not even enough V15 to complete the sets....

A lot of these questions sadly I don't think anyone outside of Zenimax will be able to answer.

The mechanics which are confirmed by players.

Simple chests won't have set items.
Advanced upwards chests can drop set items, the higher the chest difficulty the better the reward colour.
The CP perk makes the above come down by one level of difficulty, simple chests now have sets, advanced etc start having blues items.

I can assure you that's wrong I got at least one V16 and a couple V15 pieces from simple chests. I'm 100% positive on that regard.

This is true, you just very, very rarely get them

You should get the 75 point passive from shadow constellation

I've opened quite a few normal chests and about 5 from treasure maps. I don't think I ever got a VR16 piece out of them. Only from daily rewards, and at an appallingly low rate at that.

Woohoo, I passed the 1k chest opened treshhold still no full set though :'(

I would go to Cyrodil if you are just looking for a full set. Never got a purple from Cyrodil but I have gotten a few vr16 pieces and lots of vr15. Briarheart, Trinimac and Pariah all drop in delves in Cyrodil. I farm Red Ruby Cave (lots of heavy sacks) and Brakeneck Cave. Good CP farming too- about 2 an hour

Hmm didn't know they dropped in Cyro delves, thx for the tip!
