Sarah, do the chests in dungeons drop loot on the same level as monsters, or is it lower?
And now for the players!
Where are all the re-spawning chests you can think of? Here are the ones I know:
D7: Second Map, assuming you went up the stairs on the first map.
D8: Dead Men on Map 1 and 2.
D9: Crate in the Tent.
D10: First area, taking the West Route from the D9 Entrance.
D12: Family Crypt.
I'll update this post should anyone know of any others.
Sadly, the ones in D1 don't re-spawn, that or they never had any loot to begin with.
