Seething cache and orbs spawn

Community General Discussion
1

I have read several topics, but I am still finding it confusing to understand the mechanics of chest and orbs spawn. I noticed that there was an early hotfix that increased the frequency of orbs spawn, and it seems that the system now automatically removes debuffs from players when someone loots the chest.

My questions:

  1. If the chest does not spawn, does that mean the orbs will not spawn until a new chest appears? I am asking this because I have spent a long time searching for the orbs, but I have not been able to find any. Even when I look at other players, they do not seem to have the debuff either.
  2. How do I check if the chest is available?
  3. What is the typical or average duration for a chest to spawn?
  4. Does any addon help this?

I am not typically someone who farms for mounts, but since this chest is tied to an achievement, I have no choice but to pursue it.

Thank you to anyone who can provide valuable information and helpful hints.

What you should do is first have your character die in game. Have the setting for death glow turned on.

Then fly around the whole area looking for them, the orbs are a million times easier to spot with this gray screen as compared to normal.

I had the same issue: I never saw any of the orbs ever. Then I came across a reddit post telling me to look for them when my character was dead and I found them all in under ten minutes
