The Waterlogged Crate is a loot chest fished up from the seabed of The Deep, the raft-only water at The Shores. It is never sold at the Chest Vending Machine — every crate is fished up in The Deep or dug out of a Sunken Treasure Map cache, though players can trade them or list them on the Marketplace. Unlike the vending-machine chests, opening it costs nothing.
How to get
| Method | Chance | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Cast into The Deep | 1 in 600 per cast | Rolled alongside the Swordfish catch. Requires a Wooden Raft. |
| Sunken Treasure Map dig | 1 in 5 digs | A bonus on top of the cache's gold, silver and bait. |
Loot
One random pull per open. The crate rolls its own rarity ladder — heavier on the good tiers than a vending-machine chest, and it never rolls gold:
| Tier | Chance | Contents |
|---|---|---|
| Common | 67.5% | The standard chest pool: a random tool (the Starter or Iron version of the Sword, Pickaxe or Axe), or a 5–200 stack of Wood, Stone, Coal or Iron Ore — waterlogged flotsam. |
| Uncommon | 20% | 25 Squid Bait. |
| Rare | 7.5% | 8 Silver Ore. |
| Very rare | 2.5% (1 in 40) | Sunken Diver's Helmet — a hat cosmetic found nowhere else. |
| Top tier | 2.5% (1 in 40) | Pirate Tricorn — a hat cosmetic found nowhere else. |
Both hats are tradeable and can be listed on the Marketplace, and neither is sold in any shop. Pulling either one shows the rare-find reveal with a share card.
Update: On 27 October 2026 the Sunken Diver's Helmet and the Pirate Tricorn replaced the Captain's Hat, which used to be the crate's very rare pull. The Captain's Hat is retired for good: it no longer comes out of crates and has no other source, so only the copies already out there exist.
