Loot Chest

A loot chest is a naturally generated chest with rare or useful items inside.

Generation

Loot chests generate in ruins, the skyhold, and dungeons.

Loot tables

When the game is generating items for a loot chest, it "rolls" eight times. Each roll picks a chest slot at random, and adds any one of the items on the list below. If a slot has already been chosen before, whatever was in the slot is lost and replaced with the new item.

The chance of any one item from the list appearing at least once in a loot chest is 21.8%.

These are the possible items:

Item	Stack size	Damage to Durability

Name tag	1
Melon seed	2-4
Pumpkin seed	2-4
Beetroot seeds	1-3
