Containers refers to storage receptacles. Chests, a specific type of container, have items of higher value than other containers. Containers can vary in appearance dependent upon their location. Most storage containers in the game are subject to reset, that is, they clear out all the contents after a certain period of time and are reset to their initial state. Most containers reset after about a week of game time, however, examining the contents of the container causes the countdown to start over. A container could be made to never reset simply by opening it once every 5-6 days or so. Any item a player has left in a container that has reset is lost.
