Master Thief Award

Hi
Been working on the Master Thief award and there is one item I cannot find. The Rivenspire area the Antique chest in Shornhelm Fighters Guild .For 2 days I have been searching the Fighters Guild and it looks like quite a few other people looking for it too. There is no sign of the Antique chest in said room to the right of the front door.....Any ideas or just bugged?

I just tested this on a fairly new character and one a little further along.

The new character didn't see the Antique Chest but the character that has done the Thieves Guild up to getting tip board missions did see it.
You need to get a certain point in the Thieves Guild quests to unlock the ability to even see these, but I'm unsure how far in. It probably is far enough that the Kari's Hit List book shows on the table in the Thieves Den.

Hi Mystrius

The character I have for the thieves guild is quite some way up Level 12 100/100. The chest is now the very last item on Kari's hit list. So I guess I'll need to do some more tip board missions. Its so annoying because on a certain video channel the guy just runs into the room and there it is in front of him. There were loads of people trying to find this chest, so I guess tomorrows mission is to complete some more tips boards stuff and hopefully get the chest.
Thanks very much for taking the time to reply to my post. I will let you know how it goes once I get it and where abouts on the achievements list I was to see it.
Cheers and many thanks

Mine is 12 rank also. I farmed that with the tip board. It only requires a certain point in the story quests for them to unlock the hit list.
It is odd that it isn't showing for you but is for me. You may want to try a repair on the game download.

I'm on PCNA though. I'm not sure what server or platform you are on.

Hi Mystrius
Have completed the Heists, Tips are done to 30, as well as level 12 100/100. All skills are maxed too now and still no chest.
Will try a repair as you suggested to see if it shows up
Thanks again for the reply

Hi, I think these chests populate on a timer. If someone has just ‘found’ it before you, then you’ll need to wait around until it returns.

Also one of the clues is wrong, so you may be looking in the wrong place.

Here’s a very helpful guide.

Nope. They're always there instanced to the player.
Other players can't see them if they aren't at the point where they can collect them or have already brought them to the thieve's den, but they are always there as far as the game code is concerned.
