Weapon power chests

Weapon Power Chests, also known as Vampire Weapon Power-Up Chests or Weapon Boxes, were featured in Blood Omen 2, they increased the power of whichever weapon Kain was holding, until it broke.

Weapon Power Chests were ornately decorated boxes found throughout Meridian (though of a different shape, the decoration was similar to that featured on Lore Coffers ). Kain was able to 'feed' on the Weapon Chests in the same manner as feeding on Blood or Lore Coffers. When activated, the box would telekinetically open and an amount of purple energy would join with Kain's currently equipped weapon causing it to glow purple, increasing its attacking power. The enhancement would only last as long as the current weapon did; when the weapon broke, Kain lost the enhancement.
