In this part of the video, the speaker explains the concept and usage of legacy chests in the game “Outward.” There are four legacy chests located in different regions: Chersonese, Enmerkar Forest, Hallowed Marsh, and Abrassar Desert. These chests are used to transfer gear to new characters. For example, placing an item like the Obsidian Pistol in a legacy chest allows it to be accessed and possibly upgraded, like transforming into the Meteoric Pistol, by a new character. This system enables players to create more powerful builds across playthroughs and fosters infinite replayability. Approximately half of the items in “Outward” can be upgraded via legacy chests, and the video suggests consulting the Outward wiki for more details. The speaker notes that some chests may be challenging to access, especially for new characters.

In this part of the video, the narrator discusses how to access the first and second legacy chests in the game. The first legacy chest is locked and can be accessed by either joining the Blue Chamber faction, where Risa Aberdeen inducts you in the town of Berg and gives you the key, or by defeating the Vendeval fortress to obtain the Sierzo town key. This key can then unlock a door in Sierzo storage for the chest.
For the second legacy chest, players need to go to the Light Mender’s Spire in the Hollowed Marsh and navigate the interior by pulling a series of levers to open barriers and portals. Following these steps, they can bypass the Light Mender fight and access a room to retrieve the chest.

In this part of the video, the guide explains navigating a dungeon filled with enemies and portals. The player must pull levers, battle enemies, and unlock portals to access legacy chests. There are multiple steps: pulling a long lever, entering a new portal, navigating past enemies, and using keys to open gates and levers. The final legacy chest involves watching out for golems and dealing with ghosts and teleporters within the dungeon.

In this part of the video, the narrator explains how each gravestone in the dungeon acts as a teleporter sending you to another gravestone, typically encountering one ghost per teleport. The task can be completed without fighting, but mistakes could be fatal. Near the dungeon’s end, a small red moon, switching between a moon and a fireball each time you teleport, blocks your entry if it’s a fireball. Following the right sequence of tombstones will ensure it is a red moon when you arrive. Inside, a legacy chest awaits, guarded by strong foes, so fire resistance is advised. Legacy chests provide valuable gear early in the game, but accessing them requires combat skills or strategic avoidance of enemy attacks. This system allows use of any weapon and item enchantment on any character, facilitating flexible gameplay. The narrator concludes by showing items that can be upgraded through legacy chests and thanks the viewers for watching.
