Deadman Annihilation – Chest Mechanics – OSRS

• When an NPC with at least 30 Hitpoints dies, there’s a rare chance that it will spawn a Deadman’s Chest.
• In a single-way combat area, the chest takes 60 seconds to open. This doesn’t require any Thieving level.
• In a multi-way combat area, the chest takes 30 seconds to open. This doesn’t require any Thieving level.
• An enemy will be spawned alongside the chest, who you’ll likely want to deal with before opening the chest.
• When you’re attempting to open the chest, any form of combat (both PvM and PvP) will interrupt you and reset the timer, as will inventory actions like eating food or drinking potions.
• Deadman’s Chests cannot spawn in instances.
• For some NPCs where spawns would likely be impossible to open, the chest will spawn outside of the area where the NPC is located, some examples include Scurrius, the Dagannoth Kings, God Wars Dungeon Generals, Scorpia and the King Black Dragon.
• You must be risking at least 100,000 GP to open the chest.
• If you have immunity or PvP protection, then you won’t be able to open the chest.
• The first player to open the chest will receive a guaranteed drop of any of the following:
  • Trinket of Advanced Weaponry
  • Trinket of Undead
  • Morrigan’s Thrownaxe x100
  • Morrigan’s Javelin x100
  • Any piece of Ancient Warrior’s armour (Vesta, Statius, Morrigan or Zuriel)
    • These require level 20 Defence to equip, alongside 75 Ranged for Morrigan’s armour and 75 Magic for Zuriel’s armour.
  • The Thunder Khopesh
    • Special Attack requires 60% Energy.
    • In PvP, its Special Attack will summon 4 lightning bolts on the tile the player was stood. The first bolt will commence 7 ticks after the special attack is used, subsequent bolts will occur every 2 ticks beyond the first. If the player moves 2 tiles away from that original tile, any subsequent lightning bolts will not hit them. Each bolt will do between 30 and 45% of the players max hit. Both the original hit and the lightning bolts can be prayed against using the correct prayer. The initial hit will be melee, the lightning bolts after will be magic.
  • The Dogsword
    • Special Attack requires 60% Energy.
    • In PvP, its Special Attack combines all Godsword specials, but the Ancient Godsword effect has had its healing effect reduced.

You’ll be sure to see a number of these throughout your journey, so make sure to attune the right sigils to stave off any would-be attacker, stand your ground and claim your spoils to get an edge over your competition. If you’re worried about non-stop combat while opening these up, consider venturing off the beaten path and looking for locations where you’re unlikely to be interrupted – you might just snag yourself some of the most powerful gear available in Deadman: Annihilation.
