Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Help Tips & Tricks Vases - why are they containers?

Im still in Act 1, but i have not fund one vase that had anything inside. As devout DOS player I'm aware that vases had things inside in DOS/DOS2.

Is this only an oversight of Larian and vases are mere decoration or has anyone found anything in any vase lying or standing around?
This is one of the small things that frustrate me a little bit. Making everything to be interacted with: great! Don't use the container on a single vase: frustrating. Just don't make them containers.

Some have something... some don´t.

Vases: hate them or detest them?

I'm quite far in act 1, have searched about 893 vases and not a single one had anything in it. Not even one lousy rotten carrot. So the question whether to continue searching vases is very relevant to me.

Is it a test? Will perseverance be rewarded when you finally find that one vase in act 3 that does contain something, and that something is incredibly useful loot? Or should I just start ignoring those golden treasure chest pictograms when I hover over vases?

I haven't found anything in a vase, but then I ignore most of them and am perfectly happy with that. I wouldn't go peering in every vase I passed in real life, though I could, so it makes sense to me that they're interactable but I don't interact with them. And if someone has put something good in some of them and I miss it, so be it!

It's also useful that we can interact with them to do things like block vents, though I guess they wouldn't need to be treated as containers for that.

In real life almost all the vases I encounter are made of transparent glass!
