The chest you see above is something you should definitely look out for while you are playing Borderlands 2 if you wouldn’t mind some sweet loot. Though not particularly detailed where in, this chest will be located in the city of Sanctuary. According to Gearbox: “This should take you about three hours (two hours to play through the missions leading up to Sanctuary, and one hour for physical recovery after you injure yourself laughing at the impeccably written dialog).”

When opening this chest, you will receive purple loot based on your current player’s level. If you have forgotten the Borderlands system, purple is code for very rare in terms of loot. It is also mentioned by Gearbox that while you can, like with any other weapon in the game trade, sell, or give away the golden chest’s loot, you cannot trade or sell golden keys. Once you have used one of your keys, it is then gone forever. We say one, based on Gearbox’s comment “If you’ve only got one Key…” which leads us to believe if you manage to get more than one golden key, you can stack them for multiple play-throughs.

The item power is based on the level inwhich you open it at. So its best to try and hold off opening it till your a higher level.

In doing this, you also get a second key if you preordered and got in the premium club

what r the keys for?

There's a golden chest in Sanctuary. I used one key early, saving the second one for level 50 (prepare for the DLC). You can only use each key once, and don't dashboard out or you'll lose the guns and the key lol

props fam, i accidently used mine at lvl 9 .. i was so pissed when i realized what i did

[pic] I did the same !!. I was thirsty when I saw the box and didnt realize what it really was.
Got a cool gun but Im still mad I didnt wait[pic]

You getting Borderlands 2 DI1?

Might cop it tonight.

will see about this golden key,good looks

word...goddammit i gotta get this game [pic]

i still haven't found it

so the longer we wait to open, the better the weapon?

Used it at level ten [pic] wish I'd known better. Hopefully I can use this key to get another one in another playthrough

Yea pretty much. Might be more accurate to say it's relative to your level. Say if you open it at level ten, it'll be a great weapon for level ten, but once you get to level 15, twenty, thirty you will have long outgrown it and it will become useless because the power doesn't change at all. If you get one at a higher level, it will last you longer since it takes longer to level up at those stages.

How do we know which box it is? I'd rather not use a key early.

when u try to open it should show like a skeleton key icon "0/1" or something similar cant remember off the top of my head

It'll have two skulls on it and it's golden. Doesn't look like any other box in the game, and it's only in one location

Used both of mine ..... not realizing that I did. [pic]

im not using mine either ill wait i have a 11[..] a#sin and level 10 gunzerker at the moment

PC or console ?
