If I wanted Time Extensions and Gold Sturdy Boxes for key items, what lights do I need and how much of each should I get?

What you are after is Azure, Amber, and Pearl. Need all three--Pearl raises frequency of any chest dropping, while the other two affect quality of drop and % of chest will be blue or gold. You see things start to change after about 10-12 lights on each, and the good stuff starts rolling in after 20-30, depending on what abyssites you have.

If you duo it's better to cap azure on one char and amber on the other so that you control what type of chests you pop. It's annoying to get half of you coffer being blue when you want gold, isn't it ? Enter, cap pearlescent as a single group by melee-killing sufficient mobs, then split in two groups (can be groups of one but not in the same alliance nor party) and have group I cap azure and group II cap amber. Then regroup. When you need time let people from group I give the killshot (with melee damage only this time), otherwise have group II melee kill for gold chests. This way group I has capped pearl/azure and group II has capped pearl/amber and whatver you do light don't change if you don't open red chests and only kill with melee.

(it's always funny to see idots bragging how they have 1k+ minutes in abyssea when in reality it proves that half of theirs chests were useless and they wasted their time)
