The Scaled Chest is a craftable container in the Reign of Giants DLC. It requires an Alchemy Engine to prototype, and costs 1 Scale, 4 Boards, and 10 Gold Nuggets to craft. Unlike the regular Chest, the Scaled Chest is fireproof and has 12 slots, as opposed to the normal Chest's 9 slots.

Items can be stored in a Scaled Chest by dragging them onto it or by opening the Chest to place them in specific slots. Chests help keep items better organized than by dropping them on the ground. Note that there are four Mobs in the game that can steal from, or knock items out of, chests; Splumonkeys, Krampus, Slurtles, and Bearger.

The Tall Scaled Chest is an upgraded version of the Scaled Chest, exclusive to Don't Starve Together, and introduced in the From Beyond updates. To receive the Tall Scaled Chest an Elastispacer has to be used on a Scaled Chest. The Tall Scaled Chest remains fireproof and still has 12 inventory slots, but these do not have a stacksize limit anymore, making it possible to store an unlimited amount of 12 different Items (for safety reasons, this amount is capped at 4,294,967,296 items). The number above a stack will show 999+, if there are 1000 or more Items in the stack. The Tall Chest has a slightly different, taller design with some more details.

Taking an item from a slot of a Tall Scaled Chest will give the maximum stack amount of the item, making it impossible to move the whole stack to another slot at once, if the amount of the item is above its stacksize limit.

Tips

• While Scaled Chests may seem desirable for a hot Summer, due to the risk of spontaneous combustion and the Dragonfly's natural vandalism for Ashes, it is probably best to use Scales to craft Scalemail first, since the Dragonfly becomes much easier to fight after Scalemail is acquired, and in later Summers, the player may have enough gold to mass-produce Scaled Chests.
• The same functionality can be achieved with Piggybacks, with the only drawback being that players have to constantly equip and unequip the Piggybacks to check the items inside of them.

Trivia

• The Tall Scaled Chest was introduced in the Scrappy Scavengers update.
• Before the 600904 hotfix, there was no stacksize limit for Tall Scaled Chests. The amount was capped at 4,294,967,296, for safety reasons.
