Inaccessible chest in Dock Town (Bug)
There is a chest in Dock Town that is no longer accessible after a certain choice is made in the game, due to the main base being moved. Now, the chest in the attached image is inaccessible and there...
Forum Discussion
Have you done the "Shadows of Minrathous" quest? For that specific chest, the "Gamer Guide" website says to do the following:
"You’ll go to the Warehouse during the Shadows of Minrathous story quest. Follow the quest until you go past the red barrier and end up on the rooftop. After a battle up there, you’ll have to drop into the Warehouse via the roof entrance.
Go through the door, and make your way to the bottom floor of the Warehouse until you reach the Bound Hurlock. Defeat the enemies, and you’ll find the chest in the southwest corner of the room."
Hope this helps!
I am well past that quest (I have 100% finished everything in the game, including all side quests and chests etc, EXCEPT for this last chest). I am also right before the 'Point of No Return'.
As you can see in the second image attached to the original post, these giant doors are now blocking the entrance to the area where the chest is.
I believe it has to do with the 'base change', as you could apparently access that area from going downstairs from the main base.
As I said, it is ridiculous that you can lose access to a chest and not be able to 100% the game.
I need a fix!
After some testing, it seems that the access that I need to obtain this chest are the 'stairs that go down from the original base' of Dock Town. After the Dock Town gets destroyed, that staircase is now blocked by debris and inaccessible, making the chest also inaccessible.
Has anyone been able to find a fix???
Seems if you don't choose to save Minrathous, and haven't gotten the chest by then, you can't. It's a missable chest. There is a handful of them throughout the game.
I mean that's pretty silly no?
In this day and age, RPGs should NOT have 'missables' as it detracts from the experience. Some people don't want to spend hours searching every nook and cranny until they complete the story, ESPECIALLY if it's going to mess with the pacing of the story etc.
