Since Fortnite Treasure Hunters began on Nov. 1, Epic Games has been flooded with disgruntled fans wanting to know the odds of treasures that can be found in chests this season, namely the Pirate Shop Access token. Epic has finally relented, revealing the odds for each item and how much Treasure Hours influence them.
The Pirate Shop Access token led fans to focus on opening chests rather than enjoying the highly-anticipated One Piece-themed season. After opening thousands of chests with no luck, fans wanted to know their chances of finding it. On Saturday, before Treasure Hours began, they spammed the hashtag ReleaseTheOdds, demanding Epic Games share the odds of each treasure in Fortnite. It finally complied.
According to Epic Games, the Pirate Shop Access token has a drop chance of 1 per 137,500 chests, which is the equivalent of 0.000007273%. Odds have not been tweaked throughout the season except for Treasure Hours timed-event — they were boosted 1.5x for the first Treasure Hour on Saturday, and 2x the second time around. The golden skin, which will rotate each week, is the rarest treasure players can find by far (1 per 1,562,500 chests), but it's safe to say that the token is still more desirable because it's worth the equivalent of thousands of dollars.
It's good that Epic Games was finally transparent with fans, but one question remains. The Solid Gold A$AP Rocky outfit has now rotated out of the weekly treasures available, replaced by Solid Gold Lil Uzi Vert.
