chasm coeurls and cocktrices
I would use weapon skills like evisceration when dagger was main weapon and sometimes rampage with axe in main and after deafeating cocktirces and coeurls in abyssea attowa I would get a message that the enemies were concealing a chest but none would be visible until I ran back out of visual spawn range and then imediatly returning to the spot I killed the target and the chest would then be visible.

this happens on some chests however it happens everytime im in this zone. the chests were blue, red and (gold small and large boxes). the commands I was issuing were from the command menu not in macro form. I didnt notice this in other zones yet, if I do in future I will post it here.

think it's a clipping issue with the graphics engine--like the boxes load as NPC's or something (like magian trial log) and it clips it if too many objects are in your view or something. I have it happen sometimes with my Avatars during fell cleave and things like Campaign and Beseiged--the entity doesn't render, but it's glow will still be there.

That's possibly true, considering the chance of the random pyxis being a mimic (also maybe why you can actually cast on them with anything).
