Discover How to Open the Scary Dark Chest in World of Warcraft with our detailed guide today.
Within World of Warcraft: The War Within, adventurers are able to seek out and uncover all sorts of treasures across Khaz Algar. Here is how to open the intriguing "Dark Scary Chest" in The Ringing Deeps to unlock with ease, and obtain the charming (?) Oop'lajax pet.
How to find the Scary Dark Chest in World of Warcraft?
Find the spooky dark chest hidden in The Ringing Deeps at 58.94, 30.30. For the above map's sake, or if you're using the TomTom AddOn, here's the command:
- /waypoint #2214 58.94 30.30 Scary Shadowy Chest
Look for a sparkling purple chest, ornately surrounded by five flickering candles. You won't have to really search for it, since it will be marked on your minimap while the chest is available.
How to Open the Scary Dark Chest in World of Warcraft?
To open the Scary Dark Chest, you simply have to click all ten candles surrounding it to light them. Once all the candles are lit at the same time, the purple glow of the chest disappears and you can access it.
Candles tend to go out really fast, so one needs to hurry up with lighting all of them. The best way, of course, is from left to right, starting with the bigger candles. Don't be afraid to ask for help from other players standing around—find yourself a friend and complete the task together!
If you are having a frantic time clicking frantically the candles, I highly recommend you enable the Interact Key for convenience. With the Interact Key-on-by default F-just pressing will click anything within reach if active.
Here's how you turn the Interact Key on:
- Hit ESC to bring up the menu.
- Click "Options."
- In the "Controls" section, click the "Enable Interact Key" option.
What's keeping the chest from opening?
This is a bugged game, wherein it is impossible to open the Scary Dark Chest even if you light up all candles. There is no bypass, so you will have to go back to it later.
While I have seen many say it requires doing the "Janky Candles" quest to pop this, I have managed to unlock it without finishing any of those on one of my alts and it unlocked fine; the movement buff you get entitled "Janky's Finest" will surely aid in this nicely, no doubt about it.
But what is actually in the Scary Dark Chest?
Open the spooky Dark Chest and receive the Oop'lajax battle pet, along with a trove of Resonance Crystals. Meet Oop'lajax, the cute octopode with big red eyes as this little fellow swims around you in his adorable little bubble.
Oop’lajax boasts a one-of-a-kind interactive feature. At times, it attaches itself to a nearby head, bestowing the “Face Grab” buff. An adorable, pulsating hat that doubles as a free pet is absolutely worth the effort, in my opinion.
If you decide Oop'lajax isn't for you, simply Cage it and list it on the Auction House to sell. You fiend. Unlike most all of the other "secret" pets – like Marmaduke – Oop'lajax is actually obtainable, and you can have as many versions of this pet on your other characters if you so wish.
