ok, the chest in the basement of the duchal palace. . . my best thieves can't open it with over 200% open locks, my best mage can't open it with "knock", my strongest warrior can't force it open after a potion of storm giant strength, I can't find a key for it anywhere..... for the love of God, how do you open this stinkin' chest???

I don't know - I've tried pickpocketing everyone upstairs and can't find a key - in the end I just gave up.

I have even tried to kill them all, didnt work either!

The main gamebanshee walkthrough says this, though in my game the chest is always unopenable:

Basement:

There are several Flaming Fists around which are best be avoided. Some will even attack you! Your best course of action is to remain hidden in the shadows and to explore the place. The treasures are all kept in a chest in a small room just south of the stairs. The lock is hard to pick but it is worth the trouble as you’ll find: 9560 gp. (you’ve read well!), King’s Tears (worth 2000 gp.), 4 Diamonds, Emerald, Large Shield +1, 50 Arrows +1, 10 Arrows of Dispelling and 10 Arrows of Ice.

WHAT!

Bah! Only money and petty trinkets, I have no use for those!
I thought that it was filled with new and secret weapons.
