* '''Kicking''' - It's much easier to kick the chest. Make sure it is set against a wall. If it's inside the inner room still, that will be fine. If you use the scrolls method to get it, make sure you drop it next to a wall. Then kick it into the wall until the lock breaks. You will need very strong legs and tough boots for this. Note that this may shatter fragile items inside, which is all the worse since it usually contains extremely valuable items.
* '''Change Material''' - You can always change the material into something softer. You will still need to kick it if you don't have the key, but it won't require as much leg strength. An easy way to do this is to get Loraticus angry at you and wield the chest as a weapon. Pray to Loraticus and he will most likely change it into banana flesh. This is much more useful than wasting a scroll of change material.
