Reheated (reopened) chests

    I notice that it's always worth opening chests at least twice in the game. It's quite common for a chest to be full of loads of stuff, and then when you empty it, close it and open it again you find there's a suit of platemail or something you missed down the cracks in the sade of the chest!

    I think it generates a list of items to go in the chest, and then tries to place them randomly in the chest. If it can't find a place for a given item in the chest, it's still in there, but you can't see it until you've removed enough stuff to make space for it, and then close/reopened the chest.

    Some chests I have to open 3 times to get all the stuff.

    So always open chests a couple of times so you don't miss things!

    I'm pretty sure I lost a couple of artifacts in one of my early games through not doing that.

    I did the Hive after I read this and two of the chests had extra stuff. Then I went back to Dragonsand (which I had recently cleared) and 3 of the 5 chests there had extra stuff. How much have I left in chests over the years?

Oh. I should have known this earlier. Maybe this is why I was so short on artifacts and relics?

    [ not counting my ill luck -- I have seen a "Let's Play" runthrough for the Tomb of VARN. They killed few genies and efreets and got a relic. I got only tons of scrap metal from them, eventhough the Tomb was completely empty by the time I had left it. ]

    My experience has been that versions v1.0, v1.1, v1.2 & Mok's patch, in most cases, do not provide additional items when chest reopened. In those versions, I always saved before opening and opened several times to see what was inside.
