Feedback and Suggestions - WTF is wrong with srtonboxes - Forum

Even with some of the issues with them, a lot of people enjoy having the strongboxes in the game. If you don't, simply don't open them. Problem solved. And if it's just certain mods that you can't handle, then reroll or skip those boxes. Detonate dead in particular shouldn't be an issue though. There's plenty of ways to deal with it and you should probably have some way of dealing with annoying corpses on most characters anyway.

if you come across a detonate dead box, you need to open it, don't want to reroll it, and are not sure you can survive all the detonations, just pop on a detonate dead gem and destroy all the corpses before you open the box.	Posted by Xavqwyrus on Dec 17, 2014, 9:28:11 PM Quote this Post

Flesh/Bone Offering is much better. :) They will get rid of 9 corpses per cast.	Posted by Khisanth on Dec 18, 2014, 1:34:10 AM Quote this Post
I opened one before just in front of a doorway with narrow passageways. the strongbox spawned detonate while i got trapped from moving when the spawns burst out. Take care!	Posted by Shogen on Dec 18, 2014, 2:07:15 AM Quote this Post

Detonate mod is stupid mod. It never detonates nearby corpses untill you near them to blow you up. I opened a box with smokemine, killed all monsters and waited for 10 secs - it still locked, I cleared the map and went back to the box - its still locked. Now I have 5-10 secs delay before the any box opened after killing all the monsters, that started to happen after the patch, dunno whats this, I think explode mod cause this If I dont reply to you - I dont give a flying duck about your opinion If you dont reply to me - I dont care either because I dont come back to see who replied to me Last edited by The_Great_Alex on Dec 18, 2014, 4:15:35 AM	Posted by The_Great_Alex on Dec 18, 2014, 4:14:23 AM Quote this Post
My method for dealing with dangerous looking boxes is to re-roll or walk past. Works pretty good. Last edited by BackwoodsS on Dec 18, 2014, 8:25:55 AM	Posted by BackwoodsS on Dec 18, 2014, 8:25:32 AM Quote this Post
Play with a friend. have him open the box with that shiny new blink or mirror arrow thingy Sit back with flameblast, searing bond totem out and firetraps everywhere charge lameblast to 10 close to the box open it proc it profitt We don't even ID the boxes anymore, everything dies instantly regardless. monster stream is now the scariest mod with our tactic	Posted by jarlaxelb on Dec 18, 2014, 8:36:12 AM Quote this Post
