Crates and Keys

Every crate at spawn, how to get each key, and every prize with the chance shown in the crate preview.

Updated 5 min read

Crates are where the rare loot is: rank vouchers, spawners, collectors, flight, claim blocks, Bolts and the Spider-Man set.

How crates work

  • All five crates are at spawn. Type to go there.
  • Left click a crate to preview it. The preview shows every prize and its chance.
  • Right click a crate to open it with one key.
  • Sneak and right click to open up to 30 at once.
  • Keys are virtual. They are saved on your account, not carried as items, so you can't lose them. Each crate's preview shows how many keys you have.
