Shade Catacombs/Rewards

The list and probability of rewards gained from the Shade Catacombs depends on the metal and colour of shade key used to open the chest. The type of metal from which the key is made directly determines the list of rewards the player can obtain from the chest. From lower (worst) chance to higher (best) rewards, the metals are: bronze, steel, black, silver, gold. The colour of the loop of the key determines the probability of generating each reward from its list. From lower (worst) chance to higher (best) chance, the colours are: red, brown, crimson, black, purple. The exception is gold keys, which do not have a loop colour.
