Chest of Sorrow

The Chest of Sorrow is a Cursed Treasure Chest in Sea of Thieves, that leaks water during periods of uncontrollable sobbing.

Cursed Effects
The Chest of Sorrow will periodically start crying, leaving a puddle of tears around it that, if left unattended on a ship, can quickly flood and sink the Ship. Its sobbing is very loud, making Chests of Sorrow easy to locate when nearby. The periods between, and duration of its sobbing vary.

To prevent the tears from sinking a ship, players must bail the water with buckets, or remove the chest from the ship.
 * On Galleons and Brigantines, one crew member may carry the chest on the side Ladders. This does work on Sloops, however the player must sit very low on the ship's side ladder.
 * Place the chest on a Harpoon Rowboat, detach it from the ship and use the Harpoon to tow behind the ship.

The flooding can be used as a tactic to sink another Crew, or Skeleton Ships, by placing it on their ship.
