Lockboxes are containers that drop randomly from foes throughout the game. They are also purchasable from the Wondrous Bazaar for 200. Lockboxes can only be opened with Enchanted Keys , which can be bought from the Zen Market . Lockboxes contain [Tarmalune Trade Bars ] and various potential prizes, including mounts , companions , and artifacts . Whenever a player receives a major prize from a lockbox, a message is broadcast across the server announcing the prize.
When a new type of lockbox is introduced, the previous type ceases to drop from foes, and is no longer purchasable from the Wondrous Bazaar . However, lockboxes that players have already collected are not removed, and can still be opened or traded.

A Lockbox Resurgence is a period of time during which retired lockboxes drop alongside the current lockbox.
The Tymora's Gift , Coins of Waukeen and Challenge of the Gods events feature boxes that drop from random enemies but do not require Enchanted Keys to open. These are [Gift of Tymora ] , [Waukeen's Coin Purse ] and [Gift of the Gods ] respectively. The Waukeen's Coin Purses can be traded for [Waukeen's Strongbox ] and [Waukeen's Treasure Chest ] , which are also categorized as lockboxes, but also do not require keys.
