With the upcoming Labor of Love update being focused on quality of life updates, I wanted to suggest a quality of life change to fix my least favorite aspect of the game - pyramids. Everyone knows the pain of trying to get a bundle of balloons in pre-hardmode only to find that your world has no pyramids or the only pyramid has a Pharaoh's set. So you have to either live with it or keep making new worlds until you get one, which always feels a little like cheating. Why should such a good accessory be completely unobtainable in the vast majority of worlds? It feels really weird that pyramids are one of the only chest loot pools to not have a corresponding crate, yet they're the ones that need it the most by far.
That's where a Pyramid Crate would come in. Normal Oasis/Mirage crates could stay in the Surface Desert fishing pool, while Pyramid Crates could replace the Oasis/Mirage crates in the Underground Desert fishing pool. They would have drop either a Flying Carpet, Sandstorm in a Bottle, or Pharaoh's set, as well as all the other normal crate stuff (money, ore, potions, bait). If that feels a bit too sparse to justify its own crate, you could also add the pyramid banners to it, which are also commonly unobtainable in a given world.
Alternatively, I've seen a lot of people suggest that the pyramid loot pool should just be added to the existing Oasis/Mirage crates, but that would make it very crowded considering they already have many more possible drops than most crates. I also had a few ideas for the hardmode name for the Pyramid Crate: Tomb Crate, Catacombs Crate, and Necropolis Crate. But I'll leave that up to someone more creative to me.
