Get into a battle, first slot is a unit I just spent three hours leveling up to get rid of all the curses she had, because it takes like twenty goals completed to level up that far

Two rounds into the battle, she now has five more curses that will take another three hours to get rid of, changing her class mid-battle and there is absolutely fucking nothing I can do about it, nor anything I could have done to prevent it

Because in order to prevent this from happening, I need to COMPLETELY MAX OUT THAT CLASS, and the last level requires twenty goals ON ITS OWN, not to mention the only way to even get this class is to get cursed in the first place

All the cursed equipment that was forced onto me means I now I have five pieces of equipment in my inventory to deal with, WHICH IS HALF MY INVENTORY

Find a chest after the battle, wait ten seconds to see if it moves

It does not move, therefore is not a mimic

Open it, it's a mimic, here's yet another curse

Equip a bow I found to hopefully make up for changing my unit's class mid-battle so I can survive the dungeon

It's cursed too, and there's no way to know until you equip it

Paying to remove these curses will cost well over a hundred grand, which is easily five hours of grinding, and that's assuming I don't get any MORE curses in the process

Go to the unit I rescued, which I only even tried to do so I could get her weapon back, because it doesn't give it back when she gets kidnapped

She has also had all of her equipment replaced with cursed gear, and that weapon is gone forever, so this whole endeavor was a gigantic waste of time to begin with

MAN WOWEE GEE I SURE LOVE HAVING MY FUCKING TIME WASTED FOR NO REASON WHEN I DID NOTHING WRONG YIPEE

This is fucking BULLSHIT and completely fucking unfair

Skill issue :P

Edit: to try and actually be helpful, keep in mind that this game is inspired by Darkest Dungeon: a lot of things can fuck you over, and sometimes it's easier to get rid of a hero who isn't pulling their weight. Get rid of items you know are either cursed or replaceable when you're in the dungeon to free up room, and accept that sometimes the box shouldn't be messed with if you aren't using expendible heroes.  Also, surrender is always an option: if you value your heroes over your loot, you can always run away before they get cursed/kidnapped. Hopefully this helps you enjoy the game better :)

You can tell if it's a mimic because you don't get the option to break mimic chests unless a character has very high wisdom.

You can't get cursed until your armor breaks, is your frontliner wearing plate? Even then your accesories also need to be broken to be replaced, metal boots and gloves will protect you from cursed even if they don't help themselves.

If you look closely for a while, mimic chests will actually shake. If the chest doesn't shake, then you can open it

I have had non shaking mimics.

that hasn't happened to me. You have to look at it for about 30 seconds to a minute. it's subtle, but if you see it then it works every time. Since I had discovered it, I hadn't opened a cursed chest once.
