There's a fairly reproducible bug that somewhat out of hand with the new update.
A character can grab any pickup-able container in the game then take it to The End of Time and bash them for significantly increased loot.
Even unlocked containers (like baskets) will spew out several hundred gold while locked chests will drop thousands and rare gear that requires loremaster 5. I can only presume that tEoT has higher 'map level' than cyseal because I was getting dragonscale armor, elven equipment, stat req 10 lances and swords from chests taken all over town.
The only caveat is that you must not open the containers before bringing them over and bashing them. It appears to me that the map level of tEoT is scaling up the loot.
