Hi!

How can I reach this chest on Sentinel Island?

I looked all around and I can't find the way up. This is closest I can get. There is invisible wall in front of me so I can't go forward.

When I become dragon the chest disappear.

i can confirm same problem...
chest was there before acquiring battle tower...
but it was unaccessable.

after tower i can fly to and land on that spot.. but chest is gone.

hopefully this will be fixed with upcoming patch... or...

perhaps someone can tell us if there is anything of value in that chest wink

p.s. thanks to Stabbey for correction...
originally thought the above chest held the Blood Eschelon cuirass...
looked everyhwhere for that Armor piece...
just now went WAY back to old save and can confirm location of both Echelon and Dweller cuirass...
they are in that last little corridor before walking out of Maxos Temple onto Sentinal Island.
after you complete the trials and spawn in that coridor...
the chest are behind you and tucked behind a couple sarcophagus.
i spent hours looking for those... ouch!

Wrong. The Blood Echelon Armor is

in the very first room as soon as you step through the teleporter from Maxos Temple. Turn to your right. The Wild Dwellers Cuirass is on the other side of that room.

I'm glad it's not just me who couldn't get to that chest. I spent ages going through frustrating jumping exercises and even getting stuck in a tree at one point. I suspect they put it there for a laugh to frustrate us all!

I finally found the way to the chest. It's nothing special inside.

WOW! Very interesting. Kudos!
I had a feeling that tree was the key but, I just couldn't go up high enough on it.


I'd like to close by quoting Bellegar's famous last rhyme:

"Cursed be the mother that bred thee!
The wench must have been a hell-spawned banshee!"

Blimey! Well done. I can't tell you how much time I wasted trying to find a way up; I'd written it off as impossible.

It's because game randomly generates stats for every item. There is NO really unique gear, no reason to seek for such chests, since they all give you the same. Just some of the has higher "item level".
Here is what you need to do:
1. Save before chest
2. Load.
3. Open and check if the gear is ok. If it's not:
4. Load
5. Open and check if the gear is ok. If it's not:
...

Except for certain quest rewards and certain chests. In which case, the very first item that is listed will never be randomized. You'll always get the same item with set stats, no matter how many times you reload. We'll all get the same item for that matter.
