Alot know about Sabotage Charm/attuable loots. But they dont know about popping Multiply chests. I hear you can pop 6 if your good. I have only poped 2.

The trick is Do the misison with 1 toon,and have bots wait outside. Hail the guy before you zone in, task updated. Zone in Do the misison, before doing the final part of the mission(Final hailing inside).Zone your toon in from outside. Right when he's zoning, have the guy inside Hail, chest will pop /open it before other toon gets in. When other toon zones in 2nd chest will pop( Sometimes i have to /fade to it to pop).Hope this helps.
 
interesting will try this tonight when i get home from work

if this does work ... you gots my vote 8-)

Army
 
Confirmed. Move this out of public asap imho. Gets my vote if it counts.
 
First time I tried it it worked. Second time I tried it didn't.

First (successful) try:

1st Toon does mission and is ready to hail Sintal (inside) to spawn chest
2nd Toon begins to zone in.
1st Toon /Hail Sintal
1st Toon /tar wooden
1st Toon /open
.. 2nd Toon finishes zoning in.
1st Toon loots chest (it seemed like when the chest corpse despawned (after looting) that 2nd chest popped then (kinda like some epic fights where chest pops when boss corpse is looted)

The unsuccessful try, I fully looted the first chest before the 2nd toon made it into the zone. I'm not sure that that was why it didn't work that try, but next time I try, I'll be sure to do it exactly as I did the first time.
 
I just don't know how to do the mission without FD class >< other wise i'd try
 
Even if you do the mission normally, you can do this. just zone one person out before you hail Sintal inside to get the chest. Zone him in again just before the /hail (/hail while he's in the process of zoning).

Works like a charm. :)
 
confirmed it worked for me ..

got mana regen no trade item on first chest.. and boots on second..

neat trick

8-)

Creed we need to move this 8-)
 
I hail Sintal while other is zoning then /open and when he gets in i loot and nothing happens.
 
Investor, Occasionally the 2nd chest doesn't pop immediately. I was about to give up one time when it popped about 70 seconds after my 2nd Toon finished zoning in. My one 'failure' probably was impatience. The original poster mentions that sometimes you have to Fade (or re-zone) for it to work. All I can say is that it was nice going a day plus with double-chests to farm a couple more voodoo wands.

Prices gonna come down even faster. :)

Could you use this trick to spawn 6 chests with 1 group? ;)


i dont know why you guys are having so much problems spawning 6 chests at once. All i do is to have people wait outside of the zone untill i am done completing the mission. i then tell the rest of the group to zone in before i hail to spawn the 6 chests. Thats it. i dont zone out after completing the mission and 9 times out of 10 i fade after turning in the last shard. i think you guys are spending too much time thinking about it. ive had 2 other people with me in the mission while i completed the actual work, meanwhile the other two were "exploring" and 6 chests still spawned.

more or less i use the same strat i use in lguk mission and this same principle applies to lavastorm mission where 6 chests also spawn.

so what mission are we talking about?

i got alittle mixed up with clockwork commander and calisar since both missions drop 6 chests. nonetheless, the same strat is the same lol.
 
so for the record, the strat is as follows?

Turn in the 4 stones to the altars, have the 5 other people zone in, while they are zoning in, you hail, and all 6 pop? or do you loot or what?
 
You have them zone in and while they zone in you Hail and /open. When they arrive in zone thats when the extras pop. then loot open loot open loot open.
 
Ok i must be doing something wrong so i'll explain exactly what i do

Say accomplish to the task giver, then go to Sental and first hail him to get the next step in the task, then say ready to zone in, i go to each alter, turn in the stones, go back to sintal and fade (as in, fade, insta agro clear). then zone in my bots, while they are loading, i hail Sintal to get my reward, /open and loot chest, then the bots zone in and nothing happens
 
i usually only zone one other in, and have always looted first chest before he zones and another has alway popped =/
 
well i just got a second to pop, thanks guys, 1 more question, do you zone each group member in 1 at a time to get 6 chests? or are 6 suposed to spawn? i zoned in 2 bots and only got 1 chest, then again they both died shortly after the second one spawned
 
Well.. I don't know about you all, but I have no problem getting an extra chest to pop on Sabotage.

However, I have had no luck gettting any extras on any other missions (including MMs).

Anyone else or was Deanny just trying to keep us away from farming Sabotage more? :)
 
I boxed a group, only get 1 extra chest ( 2 total chests ). I am thinking maybe you zone one bot in, zone host out. Zone 2nd bot in, zone 1st bot out.. like that one by one, each time zoning the next person while your in the loot screen. shrug.
