In the Roblox action RPG Pixel Blade (created by Frost Blade Games), the Lunar Chest is an endgame loot container obtained by defeating Cor, the Lord of Wrath in World 4's Crimson Abyss or through the daily in-game shop. Opening a Tier 3 Lunar Chest awards five items with an estimated 4% base legendary drop rate, making it one of the core targets for players hunting high-tier weapons.
Pixel Blade Lunar Chest Drop Rates and Stats
Chests in Pixel Blade vary by tier, item quantity, and drop probabilities. Based on in-game inspection recorded during Crimson Abyss runs, the Tier 3 Lunar Chest compares against other prominent endgame chests as follows:
| Chest Type | Tier | Items Dropped | Base Legendary Chance | Notable Item Drops | Source / Condition |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lunar Chest | Tier 3 | 5 items | 4% | 10%–11% Hellscape drop window; Skywatcher reported in legendary pool | Nightmare Cor (Crimson Abyss World 4) / Daily Shop |
| Ominous Chest | Tier 2 | 2 items | 5% | ~4.9% Hellscape Scythe | Bug Boss secret chest run (Normal, Heroic, Nightmare) |
| Abyssal Electric Chest | N/A | Multiple | 6.7% | 10% Hellscape Scythe | Extremely rare drop from Nightmare Crimson Abyss |
Player testing highlights that while a Tier 3 Lunar Chest drops five items per open, individual legendary pool items can feature distinct weighting. In player runs, specific weapons like Skywatcher have been observed at roughly a 20% share within the rolled legendary bracket, while Hellscape weapons show drop weights around 10% to 11% on paper.
How to Get the Lunar Chest in Pixel Blade
Players can acquire Lunar Chests through two primary methods:
1. Defeating Cor, the Lord of Wrath (Crimson Abyss World 4)
The main gameplay route to earn a Lunar Chest is completing Chapter 3 of World 4 (Crimson Abyss). Defeating the final boss, Cor, awards a chest upon clear:
- Nightmare Difficulty: Yields a Tier 3 Lunar Chest. However, player testing confirms that the Lunar Chest is not a 100% guaranteed reward upon defeating Nightmare Cor; runs can occasionally award other drops, such as Tier 3 flesh chests, due to RNG.
- Normal / Lower Difficulties: Defeating the boss or clearing lower runs can yield lower-tier Lunar Chests (such as Tier 1).
2. Daily Shop Rotation
Players can check the shop rotation daily. Game guides note that Lunar Chests can appear directly in daily chest offerings, providing a way to acquire the container without clearing World 4.
How to Defeat Cor to Earn Lunar Chests
Farming Lunar Chests on Nightmare difficulty requires understanding the multi-phase mechanics of Cor, the Lord of Wrath:
- Ceiling Hand Mini-Game: Cor periodically summons a hand that descends into a black circle on the arena floor. If you are caught inside and fail the associated quick-time mini-game, your character dies permanently for that run. Maintain distance to avoid stepping into the circle.
- Invulnerability Phase: Similar to boss crystal mechanics, Cor summons hands that shield him and render him invincible. You must destroy these hands before you can deal direct damage to the boss again.
- Red Beam Attack: Cor fires a heavy red beam across the room. Stand behind the arena's stone pillars to break line of sight and avoid the blast.
- Summoned Adds (Sub-50% Health): When Cor drops below half health, minion mobs spawn into the arena. Because Cor often moves faster than these minions, you can kite him away or use the minions to hit and recover spirit health.
Lunar Chest vs. Ominous Chest: Farming Strategy
While Tier 3 Lunar Chests provide five items per open, running Nightmare Crimson Abyss requires high-end gear—such as a full Divinity armor set or high spirit-damage setups—to withstand incoming damage and maintain speed.
Because Nightmare Cor does not guarantee a Lunar Chest on every clear, player testing shows an alternative strategy for solo or lower-level players:
- Normal Ominous Chest Runs: Clearing the mechanical bug boss on Normal difficulty to grab the Tier 2 Ominous Chest guarantees a 100% chest acquisition rate, giving 2 items per run with a 5% legendary drop rate.
- Nightmare Lunar Chest Runs: Best suited for coordinated groups or maxed-out solo players seeking bulk 5-item drops and higher specific drop windows for weapons like the Hellscape Scythe.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Lunar Chest a guaranteed drop from Nightmare Cor?
No. In-game player tests show that defeating Cor on Nightmare mode does not guarantee a Tier 3 Lunar Chest every time. Drops depend on RNG, and runs can occasionally yield other chest variants, such as flesh chests.
Can you get the Hellscape Scythe from a Lunar Chest?
Yes. Stat breakdowns from Tier 3 Lunar Chests indicate roughly a 10% to 11% drop chance for Hellscape gear, though players have also reported acquiring other legendaries like Skywatcher from the chest pool.
What passes or perks affect chest opening in Pixel Blade?
The game offers a Fast Chests gamepass for 99 Robux on Roblox, which speeds up the chest opening animation time across all chest types.
