Would you kindly tell us what is the items level "ilvl" that drops in Pharos Sirius?

How many people?

What Zone will it be located in?

Will there be a quest chain leading up to it or will it just be a simple unlock?

What type of rewards can we look forward to? (Gear, Tomestones, Something new?)

Will we see any familiar Final Fantasy elements or monsters in this dungeon? Was neat to see Tonberry in WP and the Demon's Wall in AK.

How many, and what kind of tomestones will we be getting from this dungeon?

Will there be in-game lore detailing the history/formation of this dungeon?

What will be the difficulty of this dungeon? Will it be on par with the 2 hardmodes(whatever they are and their difficulty) or will it fall inline with something inbetween current ilvls?

Will it be tougher than the other Lv50 4-men dungeons? And by tougher I mean not just another DPS check running from boss a to b to c that once your item level is higher it's just becoming a rush but something you actually have to do in the dungeon with maybe multiple routes to take leading to different drops.

@MageBlack: it's on the Isle of Umbra

Does this Dungeon have normal trash mobs like all the other Dungeons, or does it have mini boss type trash between each main boss?

Will it have a story that ties to the main story? (continuation)

Will there be puzzles to solve ?

What will be the incentive to repeat it? A merely an alternative to other dungeons for Tomes or will it have unique items or rewards that can not be gotten elsewhere and are of great use?

Will there be more interactive elements to the dungeon? I find that dungeons like Castrum Meridianum and the Stone Vigil are hella fun what with being able to use cannons.

Will there be puzzles in the instance?

Will this dungeon be used as a Trial to increase your Grand Company rank?

1) Is this the rumored dungeon, as stated in the TGS Live Letter, that we'll have to beat in order to unlock the Crystal Tower?

2) In terms of difficulty, will this be harder or similar than Amdapor Keep?

3) How would the items dropped from this dungeon effect End-Game guilds who've progressed through the coil? Or is the gear from here targeted for those who're still progressing through content?

Will there be a new minion in the dungeon? (This is important, guys!)

(On a side note, to previous posters, it's the lighthouse with a giant crystal spike thru it, over in the Isles of Umbra, and it's already in the game but 'blocked off for safety'.)

Given the current progression, is this going to be made the next raid dungeon? It would be wise if you do.

Will this dungeon be single tracked or multi layered where different paths will lead to different bosses but still make completion possible?

Will this dungeon's bosses have fun, new and creative mechanics?

I've seen Pharos Sirius in the map, on the Isle of Umbra.

But for the question:
Is it going to be more like Amdapor Keep amd WP, mob-boss-loot wise, or is it going to be more like Castrum Meridarium and The Praetorium, mob-boss-loot wise
