| Mystery Boxes can be cracked by [[Clint]] in the [[Blacksmith|Blacksmith shop]] for {{price|25}}, similar to [[Minerals#Geodes|Geode]]s. However, unlike Geodes, they cannot be broken open using a [[Geode Crusher]]. | | Mystery Boxes can be cracked by [[Clint]] in the [[Blacksmith|Blacksmith shop]] for {{price|25}}, similar to [[Minerals#Geodes|Geode]]s.

| + | The following table lists the different actions that can spawn a Mystery Box if the player does not have [[Mastery Cave#Masteries|Foraging Mastery]]. |
| | | |
− | They can be found by digging up [[Artifact Spot]]s, in [[Fishing#Treasure Chests|Fishing Treasure Chests]], by [[Mining]], purchasing from the [[Desert Festival#Calico Egg Merchant|Calico Egg Merchant]] at the [[Desert Festival]], as a reward from the [[Trout Derby]] and [[SquidFest]] festivals, as loot from killing monsters, breaking open crates in the mines, shaking or cutting down trees, or trading a [[Book of Mysteries]] with the [[Bookseller]]. There is also a [[Golden Mystery Box|rare golden variant]] with a different (and more valuable) loot table.
| + | The "Chance" column below indicates the probabilities that the game will ''attempt'' to spawn a Mystery Box. When such an attempt is made, the game performs a further check to see if it succeeds. If the player has [[Mastery Cave#Masteries|Foraging Mastery]], the check will fail (and will produce a [[Golden Mystery Box]] instead). Otherwise, the probability of succeeding is 75% if the player does not have the power obtained from the [[Book of Mysteries]] and 95% if they do.<ref name="rollMysteryBox" /> |
| + | |
| + | Also note that the chances of obtaining Golden Mystery Boxes from some of the sources depends on and increases with higher daily [[luck]], and in some cases, with [[Luck#Luck Buffs|Luck Buffs]]. |
