Traps[]

“IT'S A TRAP”

–WX-78

Opening an Ornate Chest has a 66% change to trigger a random effect out of five possibilities. The type of trap is determined randomly, but changes each time the game is reloaded. Each Ornate Chest can only trigger a trap once. After the Ruins are reset in Don't Starve Together all Ornate Chests will again have a 66% change to trigger a trap:

Ornate Chest traps
Trap	Effect	Amount	Notes
Sanity Trap	Raises or lowers the player's Sanity	-20 to +20
Health Trap	Raises or lowers the player's Health	0 to +20	Cannot kill the player. Code comment reads "Changes health (For the better! We don't want the player to die from this)"
Hunger Trap	Raises or lowers the player's Hunger	-20 to +20
Monster Trap	Spawns or	1-3	Nightmarebeaks do not spawn from this trap in
Inventory Trap	Raises or lowers the durability or spoilage of a random item in the player's Inventory	-20% to +20%	This may lead to unorthodox percentages on tools or armor.

“My, what magnificent horns you have!”

–Wendy

In the Shipwrecked DLC, Ornate Chests have a chance to randomly be dug in X Marks the Spot locations, with no items in it.

Trivia[]

The name "pandoraschest" is a reference to the Greek myth of Pandora's box, a box that contained all the evils in the world. The fact that the chest can spawn Terrorbeaks and Dangling Depth Dwellers when opened is likely a reference to this.
