Skirmish chests are on loot rule "who ever first, he gets all"

all the blue loot from there goes to the one who gets to chest first. That is fail.

    I have seen that happen each time. Whoever got first got the loot. Once i rushed straight to it and yes, i got the loot without any roll, and noone else was able to open the cheast after me.

    No, this is not true. Some bosses drop a blue for every party member, just like seals, and a chest's loot is for every individual party member.

    It's pitiful design.

    It encourages greedy behavior.

    Chests in instances are available to all players - everyone can take a hit.

    In skirmishes, its which greedy ******bag knows where the chest is and gets to it first, and with luck, and in time, you may become that greedy ******bag.

    GG...gg.

    Why are you lying? In skirmishes chests acts different than in quest "dungeons". In skirmishes they are broken and have loot for the first one who opens it.

    There are some chests in dungeons that act the same way. One that comes to mind is the one in Pirates where you have to turn the gears and open the floor. Not that I'm for or against it, just saying.

    This needs to be looked into soon, because it puts a bad taste in my mouth to watch folks run ahead or hang back and not fight just so they get first click at the chest (because it's a one shot deal).

    Not true. However, some chests are bugged to have a very long reload time before they can be reopened.
    Suggestion: Thank-you package to include Celestial Coin rewards
    This is an open beta. Start treating it like one.

    What? I thought it was equal and fair on the end chest. So that's why all I ever get is a few coppers. Nuts.

    Some dungeon chests are bugged too, the chest becomes unavailable after 2-3 people used it. It sucks of course. :)

    In the "Defend the village" skirmish you get to roll for the pegasus seal. The skirmish takes ~20 minutes to finish and all you get in the end is ONE seal you need to roll for. How hard does that suck balls? :)

    Yeah, I've opened several chests in several skirmishes and some of them are indeed one-shot chests with blue gear in them. I can't name which skirmishes or which chests, as it isn't all of them. It does happen though. And it's the same chests that do it each time, and each time there is blue gear for one lucky person.

    It is fail.
