The Countess' Chest
#1
I'm still playing 1.09, as I don't have internet access at home to upgrade. Anyway, got my Sorc up to level 56 and wandering through hell level very nicely, thank you, and cleared my way down to the Countess. I did notice that there wasn't as much gold laying around as usual, but since I'm ungodly rich already, didn't worry about it much. I cleared away her minions, and then cast Hydra through the door until she was dead. All very easy, and especially nice since she was LE. Upon her death, she dropped a couple of uniques, an El rune, and a couple of potions, but THE CHEST NEVER OPENED! So I went over and tried to click on it, and it was there in graphics only- nothing would open. very strange...

I just got screwed in 1.10(a) this way. Took my Meteor sorc down the Tower, eventually killed the Countess (after several deaths to three Blood Clan boss packs... yeesh). Not only did she not drop a rune, her chest didn't open, but I did get the quest completion.

Bah.

The chest didn't open? What a waste! Elisabeth was probably to greedy to give it to you :angry: what a greedy countess she is!

Same thing happened to me the other day in 1.10s with a level 80+ skelemancer. Hell mode, of course. The Countess dropped an Ort or some such, but no chest opening.
At first I thought, "Mind control satellites? No way!" But now I can't remember how we lived without them.

Yeah, same happened to me. I was doing nightmare countess runs. After encounterung seven :blink: boss packs(one msleb) I finally got to lvl 5. I rush around w/ my werewolf, and I get to the dor, and all of the minions rush me. I kill them, then I kill the countess. She drops a unique blade, and the white mist appears on screen, but the chest dosen't open.

Does that mean someone else owns your werewolf? How is that possible? He's on *your* account, isn't he?

The chest only opens if the character who created the game hasn't yet finished the quest. If you're doing Countess runs, chances are that you've already killed her at least once, in which case it's normal that the chest doesn't open...
