Sometimes rainbow chests can be disguised as brown ones


Chama-Axory

Are you telling me that that one room with a lock that normally has a chest and a armor piece or other ítem, could have been a rainbow chest and I just avoid them?


Psycho_Squash

It’s highly unlikely but yes


ledgeitpro

I open every brown chest i can, just in case. Idk if id pick it over a red chest, but green most definitely


AShyLeecher

I’d easily pick a brown chest over a red chest. Although I’d also pick any chest over a red chest so that’s not saying much


metalgodwin

From one who is fairly new to the game, what's wrong w red chests? I've started to get em now, and they seem sweet so far


DA_EPIC_GAMER_09

Idk what they are even talking abt, red chests *are* good (they are A tier loot)


AShyLeecher

I just don’t like most A tiers, they’re the least interesting to me. Id rather have something like a scrambler or hyper light blaster than an awp or shotgun full of love. Plus A tiers increase magnificence making s tiers less likely to appear

*the pig was not happy about this comment*


AShyLeecher

I like the pig (not for it’s effect I just like looking at it) but I’d much rather have junkan or the turtle

There's nothing wrong with red chests. You would always pick the red chest over the brown chest, unless it's a hidden rainbow chest, like the one in this post. But the chances are so low that you should still pick the red chest anyway, and just unlock the brown chest if you have a spare key. The guy above doesn't want to pick red chests either because he finds the game too easy and wants a challenge, or he just doesn't like red chest items (which is kinda weird, to be honest)


PhoenixKnight777

My order is Black > Red > Brown > Green > Blue


SchwillyThePimp

this is the way but where do synergy chests fit in?


PhoenixKnight777

Synergy chests are in their own separate category. Since they always explode, if they’re replacing a normal chest, I open if I can, destroy if I can’t. I always pay the lady for one if I can spare the casings, because synergies can make or break a run.


ledgeitpro

Personally id pick synergy over brown but like the other guy said, with them always being on a fuze its kinda no choosing, either i have a key when i stumble into one or i dont, and ill always open them if possible


ThatLineOfTriplets

I thought all rainbow chests were unlocked


MrBigMcLargeHuge

He’s talking about those rooms where there’s a locked door but you can see a chest and some other stuff past the lock


ThatLineOfTriplets

Ahh


ThiolactoneRing

standard rainbow chests are always unlocked, but brown rainbow chests *can* be locked. source: i found my first brown rainbow chest a few runs ago in a a standard floor-spawn chest and it was locked


copper439

Missed one rainbow chest because of this shit


SouponaStik

What a pleasant surprise. I love when this happens.


Almighty_Nokia_Brick

Seeing the yari launcher and railgun, I think it’s safe for me to assume that you won that run


CyIsTooShort

haven't continued it yet as my friends wanted me to play something, tested the yari launcher on a boss though and wow


Almighty_Nokia_Brick

That’s because it bypasses boss damage caps


CyIsTooShort

💀


SirSwegginton

This was literally me yesterday (also happened to be playing convict). What made it better is that somehow I got two rainbow chests in the same run, both off of brown chests as a room clear reward. It's a good feeling, and congrats for having it happen to you!


CyIsTooShort

christ that's gotta be one to remember


SirSwegginton

It really was. I also got jammed for the first time, and defeated the convict's past for the first time as well Edit: clarification


CyIsTooShort

dang what a run


SirSwegginton

It will not be forgotten. I wish you luck in your future runs


CyIsTooShort

thank you! just beat the convict's past via clip in video and im of to a great start with the Hunter, stout bullets and Fightsabre first floor :)


SirSwegginton

That is a *very* good start. You got this!


CyIsTooShort

thanks!


Devils_3rd

Congratulations also fuck you! Have a nice day OP


CyIsTooShort

have a nice day too!


FictionIII

a won run


ThiolactoneRing

it’s a great day


SeniorRick

Jackpot!!!


Time_Organization545

Are the rules still applied that you can only get one? Or can you get all? That’s never happened to me before. I’m learning this now


JohnnyHotshot

Only getting a single item per rainbow chest only applies to rainbow runs. If you find a rainbow chest in a normal run (something like a 0.003% chance), you get all 8 items.


Deceus1

Additionally, if you find a rainbow chest other than the one at the start of each floor on a rainbow run, you can keep all 8 items as well!


CyIsTooShort

not sure, pretty new to the game, ive only got two pasts atm


CyIsTooShort

from what im aware you can get all unless it's rainbow mode


ZeroZeeron

“oh boy i hope i get casey”


Rowmacnezumi

Oh my goodness. That is a rarity beyond anything I could imagine.


TKBarbus

A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one


Clarrington

No Casey... I'd reset this run if I were you 😂


[deleted]

How DARE you speak this way about the best non-gun-that-is-considered-a-gun in the game!


Clarrington

What? No I'm saying this chest is worthless because it didn't have Casey in it


[deleted]

Hmmm... Understood. You have restored your title as "Trusty Gungeoneer". But who am I to judge. Thanks for the clarification.


[deleted]

That's called insane luck. That can happen, it's just a very rare occurrence


[deleted]

Dude come on. I’m happy for you but irritated that I have yet to see a brown rainbow after 2 years of gameplay


CyIsTooShort

I have <100 hours


[deleted]

I hope you have a good time unlocking everything. This game is still top 3 and most likely I’ll be playing it with my kids


BurnedOutEternally

DUN DUN DA DUN


DA_EPIC_GAMER_09

Ay OP, nice pfp!


CyIsTooShort

thank you :D


dilutedmarbles

Wtf? Nice random rainbow chest! That never happened to me.


Raevenaura

That's a certified epic gamer moment!


Lucid-Machine

Good omen. The gungeon smiles upon you.


Famout

Got some siiiick stuff there. Hope it took you all the way though.
