Rares and Chests/boxes on mimimap

In Shadowlands I am forever getting alerts or seeing on both my minimap and main map that there are boxes/chests and rares. Some boxes even change colour as you get nearer to where they are supposed to be. Some of them are shown to be below ground level where there is no access to that point below ground level. I’ve even seen them showing as being above where I am where all that is above is sky.

In brief when I get there they are almost always not there or inaccessible.
If they are not actually present can we please not be misled into believing that they are.

Also it would be nice if when these boxes are there but locked we were to be told where to go for the key.

Its annoying and on many days a waste of the little game time I have

I love your name!

In brief, they are always there when I get there.

If they are locked there is always a way to open them… by playing the game. Sorry a locked chest is getting in your way of playing the game but locked chests are part of … playing the game.

what about the colored chests that aren’t there when you get there? There are a lot of those. All of these say “container” when I hover over them. I stopped looking after the 12th one didn’t exist.

I know this is an old topic but…

Containers (and rares) are not always on the ground. Sometimes they are above it or below it. There should be arrows that appear on your mini map if you’re not on the same level as the item you’re looking for.

Do you really count all the time you spend on wowhead trying to figure out the 8 different items you must locate and the npc you must give them to who will turn it into a key as “playing the game”?

Why should I or anyone else have to rely on myself or someone else going online to find out how to play the game, or aspects of the game?

I want to spend my game time playing not on duckduckgo…what sane person uses google, other than the sane but gullible

All you need to know to play the game should be available in the game
