Treasure boxes -> Weapons
Has anyone got any weapons from treasure boxes other than Brandishes?
At first I thought I was just unlucky, but this is getting ridiculous.
To think I wasted energy crafting my first one.

Armor drops seem to be fine.
Also, as a suggestion, the boxes at the temporary core could drop something better, since having them drop vials or vitapods is just stupid at depth 30. The npc says he doesn't want you to leave empty handed, but you do anyways. More if you already have all equipment lvl 10 :<

Sooooo sick of brandishes.
I was excited when the release notes said they added more items to the treasure box drop tables, but it seems every one of those items was also a brandish. :P
It's especially silly because the brandish is one of the best swords in the game, and they're handing them out like candy.
Yeah, it is silly. I built the Khorovod (4 star heavy sword, don't remember the spelling), and even at level 10 I prefer the Brandish.
Any news on this? Just got another Brandish.
Edit: And another one. I have got 9 from chests now.

i hardly ever get brandishes, let alone rare drops. but whenever i get something from a box i always get firebreak stuff
Firebreak stuff or emberbreak stuff?
I've gotten a ton of emberbreak shields.
Both.
Armor drops seem fine. Just got a couple of Rock Jelly armor pieces.

I don't get drops from boxes much, but if I do, I seem to attract Emberbreak items. Does that count? :P
well, i was quite lucky, because i got my firebreaker set, while i was using a emberbreak, in the same floor!...I could then get more money for a better weapon.
About the last 2 floors, i still didn't got there, but yes, there should be a second tipe of treasure chest, that have 0% chance of giving vitapods, powerups, and hearths, a lot of chances of getting money and heat (high money, high heat, but less heat at 30, more at 29). Also, increased chances on equip drops in these floors (other than brandishes, as i saw here), and better materials...well, let's see if i can make a deathless to the core till the final of the year.
Don't mind me, just a future comment passing through an ancient forum.
Huh, thought that was just me. I haven't seen anything other than brandishes drop. Also, I agree with the floor 30 chests, I stopped wasting my energy on floors 29 and 30 a few days ago. It's essentially 20 energy for about 26 chests that don't drop anything worthwhile, so it simply isn't worth it.
