Now if we can get the Devs to insert some code that gives a small % chance for any static, non-boss related chest in ANY quest to be a level-appropriate mimic...
That would be true awesomesauce.

About time...
And for the other "chest blesser thread" let them bless that chest... and get eaten by it.....(Say): Haywire says, '"Hey, I don't come into yer home and play with things."'

It'd be frankly awesome if any buffs cast at the "chest" also effected the Mimic. Originally Posted by cdemeritt

Yes. I'm afraid it will be static so you can avoid it once you know, or some sort of one-of-a-kind end boss. Originally Posted by Primalhowl

Can you imagine if any chest in the game could randomly be a mimic??? That would be so awesome. Having to buff and prep before popping any chest! lol. Make the mimic scale to the level of dungeon, hahaha pop an Epic chest to be an Epic Mimic. God that would be fun!

Things worthy of Standing Stone going EXTREME PREJUDICE™ on.:
- Epic and Legendary Mysterious ring upgrades, please.
- Change the stack size of filigree in the shared bank to 50. The 5 stack makes the shared bank worthless for storing filigree in a human usable manner.
- Fixing why I don't connect to the chat server for 5 minutes when I log into a game world.
- Fixing the wonky Lightning Sphere and Tactical Det firing by converting them to use alchemist spell arcing.
- Redoing the drop rates of tomes in generic and raid loot tables.
