Lootboxes & Crates
Lootboxes are sealed reward boxes you collect as you play. Right-click one while standing in a safe zone (your own cell now counts) to crack it open, and an animated reveal rolls your rewards in front of you. Some of the bigger boxes broadcast their rewards to the whole network, and a few carry a chance at a jackpot that upgrades one of your rolls to a pull from a juicier pool.
Two quality-of-life rules apply across every box and crate now:
- You can see your odds before opening. Crates and loot boxes show the exact drop chance next to every item in their tooltip.
- Overflow never drops on the ground. If your inventory is full, rewards go safely to your
/stashinstead of scattering at your feet.
Most boxes pay out in items and currencies you'll recognise from elsewhere on the server. The exact odds live in each box's tooltip — half the fun is opening one to find out what you got.
This section covers each family of box, the Season 2 store changes, and the focused pages for the biggest ones.
Box families
| Family | What's inside |
|---|---|
| Booster Boxes | One booster of a random type — XP, Ancient Energy, ore, or shard. Five tiers set the strength: Common (1.25x), Rare (1.5x), Epic (1.75x) and Legendary (2x) for 30 minutes, and Mythic (2.5x) for 60. Global Booster Boxes run the same five tiers for the whole server. |
| Mystery boxes | A single item from a themed pool — think contraband, summoning keys, and other useful supplies, with the occasional rarer pull. |
| Fund Lootboxes I–V | Tier rewards from the Community Fund. Each opens several rewards at once; later tiers open more and better loot, with a jackpot pool headlined by a permanent rank paper. |
| Rift Caches I–III | Bought in the Rift Shop for Rift Marks; see Rift Shop & Caches. |
| Lockboxes | A risk-to-open box tied to Erebus's Pit; not currently part of any regular reward pool. |
Ancient Energy rewards read clean
When a box or crate hands you Ancient Energy, it now shows as a clean value (for example 3M-6M Ancient Energy in white, with the name in Ancient purple) instead of a raw stack count. Energy-range rewards pay the full rolled amount as a single orb.
The store and crates
Weekly Loot Boxes
The /store Weekly Loot Boxes category (which replaced the old General Items section) puts up a fresh, themed box every week, each priced at 1,000 Obols (or a bundle of three for 2,500). The current rotation is the ✦ Riftcut Cache, full details on Weekly Loot Boxes.
The seasonal crate
The seasonal crate for this map is the ✦ Tartarus Map III crate, sold in /store. Every open is guaranteed a generous handful of relics plus a jackpot roll, revealed through a one-of-a-kind floating-vault-temple animation. The jackpot pool is where the marquee chase prizes hide — among the rarest finds in Tartarus, left for the worthy to uncover. Browse every crate ever released with /ancientcrates, or read the rundown on the seasonal crate page.
Restart-safe opens
A crate opened during a server restart no longer loses its loot or leaves reward items floating. Any pending loot is handed straight to you as the server goes down.
Crafting boxes together
At /craft, 8 Booster Boxes of one tier compress into 1 Global Booster Box of that tier — the same multiplier and duration, shared with the whole server instead of just you.
