Special Chests

CloudySky71: Easter chest description

[[File:Special Chest Loadout.png|right|750px]]Special Chests are objects that can appear in place of normal {{IconLink|Chest}}s.
==Mechanics==
Each type of special chest has an immediate effect when opened, and gives an item with a related keyword.

You may set one type of special chest in your loadout before beginning a quest. Your selected special chest has a 10% chance to replace regular chests.

The keyword items that drop from chests are still limited by the normal [[Chest#Chest values|chest coin range]], which is based on [[Stage Power]]. If only one keyword item is in the price range it will always drop. If all the keyword items are too expensive, you will get a random non-keyword cheaper item. {{Icon|Present Chest}} Present Chest is the exception, it ignores the coin limit instead of having a theme.

==Unlock Conditions==
[[File:Crit Chest Unlock 01.png|right|x100px]]Each type of special chest must be unlocked. Quests have a ~10% chance to have a locked chest. If one is present:

*In a stage near the start of the quest, find a hint sign
*Somewhere in the first half of the quest, use the hint to obtain the {{IconLink|Treasure Key}}
*In a stage in the second half of the quest, find a new type of special chest and use the key to unlock it.

[[File:Crit Chest Unlock 02.png|right|x100px]]This type of chest will now be available in your loadout. You do not need to win the quest.

===Stage Keys===
A sign says "There is a secret in STAGE_NAME!"

In that stage, obtain the key by interacting with an object or cell.

With a few exceptions, Masteries are structured as follows:

<ul>
<li>Tier I- A benefit provided from the start of the quest.</li>
<li>Tier II - A passive benefit that triggers from time to time.</li>
<li>Tier III - An activated ultimate ability that must be charged by completing a number of stages.</li>
</ul>
