Jesseii.2097 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Hi guys! (: I was wondering if anyone would happen to know any of the locations for the Caffeinated Skritt chests in the new PoF maps? I was reading the map chat earlier and people were talking about one being located in the Crystal Oasis somewhere within the Omiramba Sand Sea area. I'm not really too sure honestly -- so I thought I would ask here! I'm hoping that they aren't completely randomly generated throughout the maps. I've never really hunted down Skritt Burglars before so I don't really have a lot of knowledge on them -- but this Caffeinated Skritt is carrying a collection item! She must be found and killed! ^^' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaltys.7649 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Yep, definitely on the first map. Found him, but didn't mark up the location. Was too busy trying to catch up, but as usual the event failed because nobody else was around. Can't remember where. I think it was in the area west of the quicksand pit and NE of raptor training, since the chase ended near the north gate of the city, pretty close to where the raptor race passes by..

Thank you for the information! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaltys.7649 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Never mind, just checked it, that wasn't the place. Maybe on the west side of Sinking Ruins instead, I remember running into a lot of sand sharks while chasing the skritt. Definitely started in a ruin, with open-air access, small cavity in a side of a... pyramid, tomb, something like that. Doesn't narrow it down much, sorry.

Moersel.1320 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 I saw him in the Zephyr village. He then runs through the mines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesseii.2097 Posted September 24, 2017 Author Share Posted September 24, 2017 Okay! Great to know! - Thanks guys, I'll keep looking. (: If I happen to find a chest location I'll post it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanuk.7961 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 I found 2 of them, but I couldn't tell you where exactly. Like another poster before me, I was too kittened busy trying to catch it, to worry about the location I found the chest at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Healix.5819 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 The location of Skritt Burglars are randomly chosen from a set of fixed locations. I'm guessing these are the same, so don't always expect to find them at one location. I found one in the Desert Highlands at the Altar of Dakhma PoI (here).

Vladish.3940 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 I found the Skritt in Glint's Legacy zone twice now. Once solo and once with a group. Haven't had a problem solo killing it as a melee Holosmith. Burst and movement speed are the key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm running a retaliation guardian, no good against anything that doesn't attack me. Hence the failure, couldn't muster enough dps.Same problem in the story too: the enemies are always attacking refugees, Rytlock, etc instead of me. And no idea how I'm going to handle the final boss.

RoseofGilead.8907 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 I found one of the chests in Desert Highlands, near Giant's Steps (just north of Windshear Scarps on the map). And yeah, definitely bring swiftness/movement skills, otherwise she'll get away from you quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesseii.2097 Posted September 25, 2017 Author Share Posted September 25, 2017 Hi guys!! About 5 minutes ago I found the Caffeinated Skritt. I just thought I should update the thread with the location he spawned in for me. https://imgur.com/a/X6JXXThanks again for all of the information that was shared. <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fox Reeveheart.1890 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I saw someone actually know where a skritt was going to pop out, it was in the destiny's gorge zephyrite village, ran through the mines, failed.Keep at it cause I need this.

LadyKitty.6120 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Kitty's only seen one caffeinated skritt this far, it happened in Elon Riverlands, directly north from Ustulate Barrens-text. Failed however since Kitty got downed by a hydra on the way =.=' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vladish.3940 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Found the skritt as well by the Primeval Temple (East of it by the branded scar, right under HP), but that's the next map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyKitty.6120 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Kitty now checked some of the positions mentioned in the thread and after doing 2 of the points 3 times, she can quite certainly call them confirmed spawns.So, the chests respawn at about 30 mins after previous kill. The chests stay on the ground for about 60-90 seconds, Kitty thinks and peoples didn't need to have hit the skritt to get the loots, just loot it before it expires.First chest is at @Jesseii.2097 said:Hi guys!!

Ashur.7648 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Good that there are locations to check as the Skritt is needed for all the elite weapon collections. Aside from the exotic dagger, my Ranger only needs this. At least those exotics seem to cost less than the mystic weapons for the hot stuff.

Illconceived Was Na.9781 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I found one in Desert Highlands, just under the vista west of Diviner's Reach (there's also a mastery point nearby). The chest persisted about 5 minutes, since that was how long we waited after calling it out in /map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All you have to do is run up and loot his corpse/loot bags that have been left behind, as they are lootable by all. Engaging skritt doesn't put you in combat (thus far), so there is never actual lock on the loot that forces participation. Sometimes I will pass by seeing skriit loot from a kill that happened before I even was there, and I am still able to loot it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
