Hunting down Anthem Treasure Chests locations is a requirement of the main storyline, which means every single player who wants to finish the game has to first find 15 Treasure Chests for the Tombs of Legionnaires mission. This is made even tougher by the lack of hints that the game gives you towards how exactly Treasure Chests are earned. There is no easy way to track them or locate them from the map. You’ve got to either hunt them (with the Anthem Treasure Chest locations map below) or hope that you earn them through open world activities. Though it’s certainly possible to eventually open 15 Treasure Chests by grinding normally, some of you may want the shortcut to continue the storyline as quickly as possible. This is totally understandable, and that’s why this guide exists. Feast your eyes on the map below!
Anthem Treasure Chest Locations Map
We’ve put together a map of the Anthem Treasure Chests that spawn in the starting area. You shouldn’t have to travel too far from Fort Tarsis to find them. Simply head to the red dot and look for a glowing chest. Collect 15 of them and then it’s mission complete! (Do note that we picked up these chests in multiple runs, which could mean that they do not spawn 100 percent of the time. If you can’t find a chest, head to the next point and revisit later.)
Other Anthem Treasure Chest locations
If you’re struggling to find the chests marked on the map (some of them are hidden well), then you will be happy to hear that Anthem Treasure Chests also drop during Freeplay events. Listen out for alerts from Owen and always go to the mission. Help out the Sentinels, take out the Dominion, and complete whatever else that pops up as you fly around, and you’ll be rewarded with a Treasure Chest. Combine this with the chests that do manage to find out in the wild, and you should soon get 15 out of 15.
Can more than one person open a Treasure Chest?
At the time of writing, only the person who holds the “Open” button will have the Treasure Chest registered for the Tombs of Legionnaires mission. This means that you will need to race to be person to open the chest, otherwise it won’t count. Here’s hoping Respawn Entertainment allows multiple people to open a chest in a future update. For now, we recommend tackling this challenge alone.

Everything You Need to Know About Anthem's Javelins
So, you're diving into Anthem? Not sure which of the mech suits to climb into first? We've taken them all for a test flight, cooled off under the waterfall, and returned with the lowdown on all four. Here's everything you need to know about Anthem's Javelins. -
Ranger
No matter your preference, you'll be starting your Anthem run in a Ranger. Described as the all around jack of all trades, the Ranger can slot into any situation and round out any team. Rangers can dash across short distances and strike foes with a devastating Shock Mace. -
Lock and Load
As for gear, a Ranger can pack grenades or cannon blasts. These range from elemental bombs to heat-seeking missiles. Rangers can support their team with a bubble shield that protects from foes or enhances damage. Finally, the Ranger's ultimate is a volley of missiles that can hit dozens of enemies at once. -
Colossus
For a mech game, Anthem sure does have some agile suits. If you want a more traditional giant robot experience, may we suggest the Colossus? The biggest of the four Javelins, the Colossus is a tank that blasts into battle with a mounted flamethrower and several ordinances. -
Prepare for Titanfall
The Colossus is all about busting things up. Whether that's with various mortars, a literal firewall or a burst of lightning, you'll be charging through foes and making a lot of noise. There's also a Railgun and a Flak Cannon to strap on if you want to get even more up close and personal. -
Interceptor
You want fast? Pick the Interceptor. With an innate triple jump and three dashes, you'll be moving all around the battlefield as you pepper opponents with shots. Mark enemies with your Target Beacon to single them out and boost damage across your team. Or, just focus in yourself with this mech's range of different systems. -
The Need for Speed
Interceptor players shine in the melee arena. Among their options are an electrifying dash attack, several different elemental ninja stars, and poisonous options for decaying large groups of foes. You can also do the Naruto thing and create duplicates to confuse your opponents before hitting your final strike. -
Storm
Of all the Javelins in Anthem, the Storm is the most unique. It's not every day that your robot suit is slinging magic spells like some kind of wizard from the moon. Storms can hover in mid-air away from danger and pepper the field with damage. -
Bringing the Thunder
You've got everything you'd expect from an elemental warrior. Ice beams, lightning bolts, frost shards, and fireballs, all at your fingertips. When you charge your ultimate, you can combine all the elements into a torrent of energy that can wipe out a whole squadron. -
What's Next for Javelins?
Storm, Colossus, Ranger, and Interceptor. These are the four Javelins that Freelancers can pilot in their Anthem adventures. Will we see more variety in future Javelin designs? New abilities for existing warriors? New chances for combo attacks? Only time and BioWare's roadmap can say for sure.
