Fair Loot for Every Explorer
Welcome to the Lootr guide for Shadows of Aethro. We've installed this quality-of-life mod to overhaul how chests work in dungeons and structures. No more empty chests in raided dungeons—every player gets their own personal instance of rewards.
How It Works: The Simulation
Understanding the difference is key. In the simulation below, you are two different players exploring the same dungeon. Try opening the chest as Player 1, then as Player 2. See how Lootr solves the "Empty Chest" problem.
❌ Without Lootr (Vanilla)
✅ With Lootr (Active)
Why We Use Lootr
On a multiplayer server like Shadows of Aethro, standard exploration often leads to "late-joiner disadvantage."
This chart visualizes the availability of loot in a standard dungeon over time. While vanilla chests become useless after the first visit, Lootr chests maintain 100% utility for every new unique player.
Key Benefits
- 🛡️ Instanced Loot: Items generated specifically for you.
- 🤝 Co-op Friendly: Go dungeon crawling together; everyone gets loot.
- 🔄 Visual Cues: Chests change color (gold to silver) once you have opened them.
