The Chest of Rage is a Cursed Treasure Chest in Sea of Thieves. It boils with rage until eventually exploding with a burst of fire. Treasure Chests are locked with locks that can only be opened by Skeleton Keys held by Gold Hoarders on every Outpost. They are willing to buy these Chests for a fraction of their worth.

Cursed Effects[edit | edit source]
If left unattended, the Chest of Rage will start heating up, eventually glowing and steaming and ultimately explodes leaving large swathes of Fire around it, damaging any Creatures or Player Pirates, Gunpowder Barrels and Ships in range. It takes 2 minutes for the chest to go from its dormant state to exploding.
The Chest will heat up faster when sustaining damage. Continuously hitting the chest with a Cutlass will make it explode in just 10 seconds.
The explosion can be delayed by cooling the chest using water such as by dropping it in the sea, filling a ship's hull, bailing water on it with a Bucket, etc.

Notes[edit | edit source]
- Picking up and placing Treasure Chests on a Ship for the first time gives Emissary Grade Reputation to Trading Company Emissaries representing the Gold Hoarders or Reaper's Bones.
- All Treasure Chests emit a White Glint from a distance.
- Treasure Chests can be caught with a Harpoon.
- The Chest of Rage can be cooled by rainwater from Storms.
- The Chest will get agitated from Geysers found in The Devil's Roar.
- When the Chest of Rage is left in water in a Ship's Hull, the water will eventually start boiling, scalding the player and allowing the Chest to keep heating up again.
- The Chest of Rage will still heat up when held on a Harpoon.
- The Chest's explosion will burn most of the Ship's deck even when held up top on the Crow's Nest.
- The Chest of Rage spawned in the Fortress Vault of Molten Sands Fortress will lie dormant until picked up.
Tips[edit | edit source]
- Currently, the best spot to keep Chests of Rage is on top of Barrels in the bottom decks with a couple of Bucket's worth of Water below. A Chest won't set the deck on fire as they are not on the deck. Any players in the vicinity will however take Fire Damage.
- You can douse a Chest of Rage with a Bucket of Vomit.
- The Chest of Rage can be left on a Ship's bowsprit and a single bucket of water is needed to put out the fire from the explosion.
