Rogues' chests are located in the Rogues' Castle at approximately level 54 Wilderness. Opening them requires 84 Thieving; players must right-click the chest and choose the "Search for traps" option to open it successfully.
Upon successfully unlocking a chest, the player is granted 701.7 Thieving experience and various stackable items including runes and noted gems, ores, blighted food, and dragonstones. The chest will then take 34 game ticks (20.4 seconds) to restock.
Along with hellhounds, the chest is one of the best sources for hard clue scrolls in the game when an imbued ring of wealth is worn.
Successfully stealing from a chest is an elite task in the Wilderness Diary.
Getting to the chests
Warning: The chests are located within the deep Wilderness. In addition to the threat of player-killers, the Chaos Elemental may wander in front or near the Rogues' Castle. Do not bring items you are unwilling to lose.
There are several options to get to the Rogues' Chests:
- Teleporting using a Wilderness Obelisk is the fastest method to get there. It is recommended to have completed the hard Wilderness Diary in order to teleport directly to the level 50 obelisk.
- Players are able to use the Annakarl Teleport or an Annakarl teleport tablet from the Grand Exchange. This teleports the player relatively close to the castle, though slightly further than the Wilderness Obelisk.
- Teleporting to the Fountain of Rune using the Wilderness sword 3 (one daily teleport) or 4 (unlimited) puts the player a similar distance away as the Annakarl Teleport.
- Players may also use the Edgeville lever to teleport deep in the Wilderness and run east to the Rogues' Castle. Be warned that this requires the player to run past the Chaos Elemental, which hits consistently, even at high levels.
Inside the castle
The castle is home to many non-aggressive level-135 rogues. Once a chest is opened, the rogues will become alerted to the players presence and begin to attack. It is highly recommended to have a Prayer level of at least 43 to use Protect from Melee, as the rogues have a max hit of 15.
Low-cost or untradeable equipment that provides a high Prayer bonus, such as a set of monk's robes, a holy symbol, any god books, any Ardougne cloaks, and the Explorer's ring, are recommended as they can easily be re-obtained. A possible setup is shown below.
           |
Players are also recommended to bring a self-damaging item such as a dwarven rock cake or locator orb, and consistently keep their hitpoints as low as possible. By doing so, players can simply turn off their protection prayers if a player-killer arrives, allowing the killing blow to come from a rogue instead of another player and as such experiencing a "PvM death."
Training and money making
The possible reward of dragonstones makes the chest a popular method for ironmen and players looking to make dragonstone jewellery. With the experience increase of February 2024, it is also a viable training method. Assuming 285 chests are opened, players can expect to gain about 200,000 experience per hour, as well as 4-5 dragonstones and 2-3 hard clues. In clue rewards alone, one can expect between 383,756 and 575,634 in profit, not including the raw loot. Keep in mind that this does not take into account the cost of gear and supplies used while training.
If ignoring loot and quickly returning after deaths by using the Construction Cape and Wilderness Obelisk from their POH, a player can gain over 290,000 experience per hour, making this the quickest thieving experience from level 84 onwards. Most players will benefit from banking loot and can expect to gain about 250,000 to 270,000 experience per hour if not running the hard clues.
Each chest can be opened a theoretical maximum of around 420 times per hour.
