Diadem: Buried Coffer

Today, after PZ left when we finished a Diadem (Hard) run together, Corn, Kuji and  I went in again, for another round of Tomestone of Esoterics.

While searching for a Buried Coffer and Black Crystals for the objectives, I spotted a Buried Coffer near a huge Sanuwa. Before I could ask someone to come in to bait the thing for me, a party nearby approached and aggroed it.

I looked at them and thought maybe they wanted the Buried Coffer, but they all went to fight the monster. So I thought to myself oh maybe only I could see the box, just like Levequest treasure boxes. So I started interacting with the Buried Coffer. Suddenly, one of that party’s members rushed to the box. So I was like oh shit shit shit, I’m being a jerk. Luckily, the dig could be interrupted by running around, so I ran off and left before stealing their box. Of course, when they finished it, Buried Coffer disappeared from my view.

So, in case some people didn’t know about this already, I just want to note here that the Buried Coffers in Diadem are shared between everyone, not appearing for individuals, so you will have to compete against other parties for the coffer. I would have been so embarrassed if I did successfully steal their treasure while they were sweating and bleeding trying to kill a monster that guarded it. And if I were in that party, I would have felt so shitty and mad at anyone who steals it from under my nose when apparently we deserve the treasure.
