Your primary source of income in Sea of Thieves is from chests. You’ll end up having crates on your ship regardless of the trading firm you choose, the quest you’re on, or the event you take on.
You might find a lot of chests and have a sizable stockpile after an hour or two of looting.
Then, if you’re being attacked, you’ll have to decide whether to hide them or turn them in.
In Sea of Thieves, knowing which chests are the best and most precious is essential knowledge, and you should be fully aware of how much each one sells for.

15. Skeleton Captain’s Chest

You can’t deny the harshness of their treasure, whether it’s annoying or a pleasant surprise to see a skeleton ship appear right next to you while you’re travelling.
Sinking one will probably result in the above chest, with 8 being ensured if a skeleton captain ship is sunk.
Also rumoured to like eating these chests are megalodons.
14. Chest of Rage

Placing a Chest of Rage on your ship is asking for problems; insane value has a cost.
You see, this chest warms up over time. like, really heats up!
You’ll need to keep throwing water over it frequently to keep it from igniting your entire ship.
During a Fort event, you can always locate a Chest of Rage in the Molten Sands Fortress vault if you want to take a chance.
Additionally, there’s a slight possibility that you’ll find it in shipwrecks or even via treasure maps!
13. Chest of Sorrows

The Chest of Sorrow will cry instead of releasing flame, similar to the preceding entry.
It will consequently fill your ship with water.
Very unpleasant, but bucketing out water is far simpler than continuously retrieving water from the sea to put out a Chest of Rage.
Skeletons of ships, krakens, megalodons, and island shorelines are sporadic finds on treasure maps.
12. Ashen Captain Chest

Ashen Captain’s Chests command a premium price among the Gold Hoarders and are most frequently discovered through Devil’s Roar voyages or hidden away on Devil’s Roar islands.
After the Fort event is over, there is a good probability that one may spawn in Molten Sands Fortress.
This is the best Ashen chest you can find in terms of locked, impenetrable chests.
11. The Siren Song’s Chest

This chest makes you sing for a predetermined period of time.
Assume you succeed in returning this to your ship while singing a cheery song and doing it unnoticed.
Now that you are in the wide ocean, you come across an adversary ship and start combat with it.
One of the opposing pirates swims over while you are preoccupied, sneaks onboard, and starts covertly tossing your cargo overboard.
They pick up the chest and start belting out loud songs. You have created your very own musical intruder alarm.
10. Locker Davy Jones

When a pirate dies, they go to the sea floor, which is represented by Davy Jones’ Locker in pirate mythology as the afterlife.
Anyone who touches a Cursed Chest with the Davy Jones’
Locker attributes will immediately be teleported to the ocean below, where they will likely find themselves surrounded by sharks.
9. The Kraken’s Treasure Chest

We all know where this is going, I believe. Data miners have verified that the Kraken is present in the Sea of Thieves game files.
When this chest is first touched while a ship is in motion, the fabled sea monster spawns and wraps its tentacles around the ship.
For those players that feel like getting into a fight with this enormous mass of tentacles, barnacles, and teeth, it may be employed as a trap or as the pirate equivalent of Begbie’s thrown glass in Trainspotting.
8. Stronghold Chest

Stronghold Chests are prized items of loot because they give the greatest emissary bonus of any chest in the entire game.
In the Fort of the Damned, you have a 100% chance of finding one or two skeleton forts.
Forts are very difficult to acquire and a difficult challenge to overcome. waves of undead soldiers carrying rifles, cutlasses, and gunpowder kegs. A formidable boss came after them all.
7. The Chest of Ancient Tributes

The Chest of Ancient Tributes is the only chest that can reliably replenish your gold pouches. There are a tough array of obstacles you must overcome before you can ever consider obtaining one.
You have to complete a number of stages before you can see it, which is hidden in a Gold Hoarder Treasure Vault. In essence, purchase a Wayfinder Voyage.
Focus on the prior possibilities if you plan to farm since you won’t be able to find such a chest anywhere else but these vaults.
Otherwise, you’ve found it if you simply want the satisfaction of owning the best chest in the game.
6. Mutiny’s treasure chest

A ghost with a gun who demands that you walk the plank spawns from this chest.
If you don’t comply in a certain amount of time, the specter shoots you in the head and sends you to the afterlife.
Even if you steal the chest on an island, you must return to your ship while the ghost chases after you.
It won’t stop until you jump off the plank and become completely covered with plankton.
5. The True Pirate’s Chest

I assume that all excellent pirates wear an eye patch and a peg leg.
You must carry both when moving about with this chest. You move slowly and obnoxiously while the screen is only partially visible.
How are you going to sneak this item aboard your ship?
4. Captain Chest

The majority of voyages, islands, and treasure maps contain Captain’s Chests, by far the most prevalent chest on this list.
Barrels are frequently accompanied by treasure chests, so you’ve probably seen them floating about the ocean.
Among those barrels, Captain’s Chests and every other generic loot pool are prevalent (like Megalodons or Krakens).
3. Chest of the Damned

Many of these phantom chests can be found on ghost ships, either on expeditions led by the Order of Souls or at global occasions like Flameheart.
One of the most entertaining activities in Sea of Thieves is ghost fleets. especially when alone
Therefore, after a grueling naval battle, finding these chests is incredibly fulfilling.
2. Chest of a Thousand Grogs

This is one of the most unusual chests in the entire game, and the ale inside must be really strong. A sailor will become inebriated from carrying it alone.
It may be found everywhere around the Sea of Thieves area and is occasionally dug up or given as rewards for various quests and expeditions.
When turning it in, be careful. You’ll have a free shot at being killed and stealing it for yourself if another player spots you!
1. Ashen Chest

The Ashen Chest, which needs an Ashen Key to open, can give up to 5000 gold coins only from the treasure inside (most likely around 2500 though).
It may also hold priceless Ashen Tomes (used to unlock the Ashen Dragon cosmetic set).
A skeleton Fort event guarantees one, while a skeleton fleet captain’s ship guarantees two. Strong bosses known as Ashen Lords dropped an unlocked Ashen Chest.
