Crimson Chest

The Crimson Chest is a locked chest that will only spawn in the dungeon if the world is inflicted with The Crimson. The Crimson Chest may be unlocked with a Crimson Key which is dropped from a random Crimson enemy once hard mode is enabled.

Crimson Chests have a 100% chance to contain the weapon Vampire Knives, and are the only item that may be found within.

Tips

 * Before enabling hard mode be sure to locate a Crimson Chest within the dungeon, as hard mode makes the dungeon significantly harder. As of version 1.2.0.3, this only applies before defeating Plantera, as hard mode dungeon mobs will spawn.
 * The player may open the Crimson Chest on a non-Hardmode world, as long as the key is present.
