Both runs I got absolutely nothing, no DM, etc. Prior to yesterday, as best I can recall, I've always had a chest to click on. How does this work?
Someone told me if I'm not near the chest when it's opened I cannot get any drops. Is that true also? Thanks.

P.S. - I didn't even get any DM yesterday with the chest gone.
i do get item one time when im very far from chest. like 1/5 :O just FYI
