Ah, thank you, both for the response and the welcome. I've actually already moved past the point where I can use it, but I'm relieved to learn I haven't missed anything unique. The completion freak in me is clamouring for me to start over just to say I opened it, but I've already started over 3 times as I've figured out the exp system and how to properly milk it. I don't think a 4th restart is needed for one chest of random items. BTW, I think I've seen your name in the "thank you" portion of every FAQ I've read so far, so I guess you know your stuff. I'll just assume you're right here, and get that one on my second play of this outstanding game.
