Is the Loot Actually Worth It?
If you are dying repeatedly and getting frustrated, you might wonder if there is a legendary weapon or rare artifact inside.
The short answer is no.
Actually, it contains a basic short sword and some miscellaneous junk. If you are playing for maximum immersion, it is perfectly safe to skip this chest until you have leveled up both your diving and lockpicking skills. You will not miss out on any game-breaking early gear.
