Treasure Chests Info and Loot List

A new feature was added to the game: treasure chests. When you do jobs in any Mafia Wars city, you randomly have a chance to find a treasure chest.

Am I that lucky?

At any rate, while you can find these chests randomly, the drop rate seems to be quite high, at least for the first one (I found one on my second job). The only problem is they require a "key" to open them (what's my TNT for then?) and keys are only purchasable for 9 godfather points. At least right now, there is no way to get keys for free (hopefully this will change in the future).

The key is a consumable. You must buy a new one for each chest.

In short, Treasure Chests are essentially another mystery crate, except cheaper. So if those are your kind of thing, treasure chests might save you a couple godfather points.

The Treasure Chests are also giftable and you can find them on your loot inventory page (I'm already in the double digits for treasure chests)! After you unlock them though, the loot items can not be gifted. Only locked chests can be sent as gifts.

Note that these "locked" items are basically old limited edition loot pieces with the word "Deadly" in front of them and as a result get a decent amount of extra attack and defense points. As a result of these items being recycled, the loot list could easily be very large. With that said, here is the loot list (feel free to add if I am missing some - this list is likely to be partial):

Weapons

Deadly Gold Crowbar (27 attack, 23 defense)

Deadly Combat Knife (27 attack, 21 defense)

Deadly Light Anti-Tank Weapon (33 attack, 22 defense)

Deadly AA-12 Auto Shotgun (34 attack, 18 defense)

Deadly Flamethrower (35 attack, 24 defense)

Deadly M468 Assault Rifle (36 attack 20 defense)

Deadly Piano Wire (32 attack, 16 defense)

Deadly Meat Hook (28 attack, 23 defense)
Deadly Silver Knuckles - (22 attack, 28 defense)

Deadly Car Bomb (42 attack, 36 defense)

Deadly COP357 (47 attack, 25 defense)

Deadly Grenade Launcher (44 attack, 20 defense)

Deadly Boomslang SCR (45 attack, 20 defense)


Armor

Deadly Gas Mask (16 attack, 26 defense)

Deadly Armed Guards (12 attack, 28 defense)

Deadly Body Double (25 attack, 45 defense)

Deadly Jetpack Prototype (46 attack, 15 defense)

Vehicles

Deadly SWAT Van (18 attack, 28 defense)

Deadly Bullet-Proof Berkshire (20 attack, 36 defense)

Deadly Giavellotto (30 attack, 33 defense)

Deadly Chrome Skyline (35 attack, 22 defense)

Deadly Gold GX9 (46 attack, 30 defense)

Deadly Impression (28 Attack, 47 Defense)


Conclusion

While it's a nice touch, it's not something I see much value in. I spent 9 GF points just out of curiosity and ended up with a weapon with 23 attack / 27 defense (gold crowbar) - not worthy it at all considering I'm maxed out on Moscow loots.

I don't care though - Mafia Wars Bangkok beta is for sure supposed to come out this week sometime!
