Sunken Chest

The Sunken Chest is a valuable underwater container in Rust, reminiscent of the familiar Large Wooden Box. Players can find this treasure trove adjacent to Shipwrecks scattered throughout the oceanic depths of the game. It's well-known for holding a rich assortment of components and useful Tier 1 Workbench items which are crucial for progressing in the game.

The chest not only contains critical resources but also features various eye-catching skins which make them easily recognizable to divers, especially when equipped with Diving Goggles. The visibility of these chests is key, as they can be a significant source for upgrading your gear and base.

To claim the loot from a Sunken Chest, a player must first untie it. Once this action is completed, the chest will rise to the surface, allowing players to access the contents without needing to remain underwater. It acts like its counterpart, the Sunken Crate, in this buoyant behavior.

Given their substantial yield and the exciting adventure of discovering them below the waves, Sunken Chests are highly sought after. Whether you're looking to build tools, weapons, or fortify your shelter, the Sunken Chest is a must-loot for any aspiring survivor in Rust. Don't forget to bring your diving equipment to make the hunt for these chests safe and efficient.
