Alrrem's chest

Here is a quick question for you.

Has anyone ever found Alrem's chest in game?

Alrrem is a fire priest.

Not I. It used to be in his room IIRC - (and I could be wrong about this) but if I remember back to vanilla, it made fighting him very tough because it took up so much space because his room is quite small.

 

No, that is not Allrem's chest. Allrem has a key on him and this key does not open that chest.

It may be that the chest in Bassanio's hall (where the Fire Brothers are) was intended to be Allrem's chest, but it currently is not that way.

It may be somewhere else, but that chest is not the one.

In the Module...

...the big fire temple treasure chest is the one in the temple itself (where the salamanders are). The one in Allrem's chamber had personal effects and jewelry type treasure...nothing special. So it must have been removed to save space. IMHO, Allrem's key ought to open this one instead...as well as disarm any traps. It was very well protected in T1-4; most people couldn't have even found it, let alone gotten inside of it without casualties.

PS...Allrem is the fire priest...by virtue of tossing his brother Ashrem into the nodes. If you want to add some flair, perhaps Ashrem knows where the chest really is...

 

Werewolves chest?

Why are 2 very powerful werewolves guarding a chest with 1 scroll in it? That scroll is nothing super special that needs that level of protection. Put something of high, useful value in there to make it worthwhile. Those werewolves are tough and the treasure reward should be much higher. Is it related anyway to the firetemple priest, or could it be? Or, put something new and interesting in the chest, like some of the magical things people are crafting up.

 

they arent actually guarding anything wizgeorge they are a trap for unwary adventures to get thier weapons away from them and make them easier pickings . they add anything to thier treasure and then take the adventures to the fire temple, which they work for.

 

Yes ,I know it's a trap, but it just seems odd that 2 powerful creatures in a really small room with a chest in it. Is the scroll the reward for defeating them. Pretty slim pickings if you ask me. Mainly, i'd like to see a little better, higher value treasure for some of the encounters. Just curious.

 

I just finished the firetemple and I searched the entire area, every room with my half-elf, and no chest. If the werewolves are just purely a trap, then why a chest. The scroll is nothing special that I know of, but maybe Allrem thought is was. Pretty powerful priest when you've got werewolves working traps for you. He's dead now and the werewolves will be soon. I just wish there were a higher level of treasure in the chest. There's another chest in the side room off of the big bugbear room. It has a 80+HP bugbear and 2 females. The chest has 2 robes in it. Wow , some treasure. I'm still of the opinion that the loot doesn't match the risk involved in a lot of cases. Overall, the loot from dungeon level 1 and 2 is decent.

 

hmmm i never noticed that Allyx ill have to look for it when i get there again. i dont think ive ever seen his chest in this game.

it would be nice wizgeorge if they had better treasure but they didnt have much more in the original mod. a couple +1 weapons. all the rest was regular adventure's equipment from previous victims.

 

I suspect that the game writer forgot to place a chest and instead, loaded the loot on his person. He has a key, but I think all the loot was placed on him. No big deal. He has real good loot anyway.

 

See previous posts. There is no chest! I searched every part of the firetemple and I am confident there is no chest It was left out by the game writers and the loot placed on his person. Just an opinion, but somebody prove me wrong. There is what appears to be a chest next to the dresser in Allrems room but it isn't activated. Basically, there is no Allrem's chest that can be opened with the key on his person. One way or another.
