"He watches over all things locked and hidden. Where time once lingered, now fortune returns swifter to those he favors."
Tired of waiting an eternity for your favorite chests to refill? Whether you're a treasure hunter, a loot goblin, or just someone who really hates empty containers, The Chestwarden has you covered.
This mod adjusts the global chest respawn timer, reducing the in-game time it takes for any previously looted chest to refill. From a small nudge to instant gratification, five progressively faster variants are available—so you can choose just how generous the Chestwarden is feeling today.
🌐 MULTIPLAYER NOTICE:
Mods in Dragonwilds are host-authoritative, meaning:
- If the host has modded files or is running LUA mods, players who connect to their world will benefit from those mods.
- If the host is unmodded, then your client-side mods will not function properly and may not apply at all.
- Do not grief other players by trying to exploit mod behavior in unmodded games — that makes you a jerk, and nobody likes a jerk. Play nice.
⚙️ Five Modular Versions Available
(Only install one at a time. Chestwarden gets cranky otherwise.)
🧭 Note: Chests still require the player to be a certain distance away before they can reset—even with the “instant respawn” version installed. Staying nearby will pause the respawn timer. This is a game engine behavior, not a mod limitation.
🟧 The Chestwarden’s Blessing (80% Time Remaining – 4 Days to reset chests)
"A modest gift to those who wait."
A small time reduction that still respects the pace of a traditional world.
🟩 The Chestwarden’s Favor (60% Time Remaining – 3 Days to reset chests)
"Patience rewarded, but not indulged."
Still balanced, but faster. Just enough to feel it.
🟨 The Chestwarden’s Grace (40% Time Remaining – 2 Days to reset chests)
"With grace, riches flow swifter to those in need."
Noticeably faster. For those who’d rather loot than linger.
🟦 The Chestwarden’s Respite (20% Time Remaining – 1 Day to reset chests)
"Why wait for wealth? Take your ease, and return sooner."
Almost rapid-fire. Perfect for adventurers on the grind.
🟪 The Chestwarden’s Triumph (0% Time Remaining – Instant Respawn)
"Time holds no sway when the Chestwarden triumphs."
Every chest. Always full. Always ready. You are the storm
