    Q: Is there a weekly lock-out like the Binding Coil of Bahamut?
    A: No, there is not.

    So.............................................................
    The Coil lock out is Complete, the CT lock out is Loot Only. He was meaning there is no 1 Week Lock Out for the Running of the Tower.

    If that is true Then SE sucks.
    Loot will only Lock once you obtain an item, which means in theory you could keep running it until the item you WANT to obtain drops that week.

    It's technically better then coil since coil you can go blank for weeks and weeks. Where CT you will fill up as long as you have the will to run it.

    More RNG then tokens, but better the coil by a long shot.

    I'm pretty sure you're going to hear a lot of stories about people getting their one loot item and then leaving the party in a CT group. So, everyone will have fun with that, I'm sure.

    Unless they have a totally different system than they have for every single dungeon and Coil so far then loot drops after each boss. There is more than one boss in CT. If a player wins an item from the first boss what incentive do they have to keep going? None.

    That brings up another issue. If this was a static running it, they might have a reason to keep going, loot for the other members. But in a PuG? I wouldn't do it myself, but I can easily see people doing this. And without being able to static a full alliance yet, a very real possibility.

    People seem to think Crystal Tower will have the same loot layout as regular Dungeons, or maybe it does and I've just missed that information. Seems more sensible for loot to be the same as Coil Turn 1 though; not after every mini-boss, but after the final boss.

    Heck, the Lodestone page for Crystal Tower ended with;
    * Each party in an alliance will receive a treasure box, the contents of which are restricted to their party.
    So until a community rep says otherwise, I'm assuming there is one chest at the end of Crystal Tower for each party.

    I doubt that the final boss is going to drop 12 pieces of gear all at once.

    You have three paths based on just about every screenshot (and the fact that there are three parties).

    Path 1 has Loot list A.
    Path 2 has Loot list B.
    Path 3 has Loot list C.

    As far as the visible gear goes (no idea about accessories at this point), that's 10 pieces of gear per chest; Primals already have 9 potential things to drop...

    Ummm...myth tomes? You'd only get myth after killing the final boss so if people leave early, no myths for them. Myth cap will be raised to 450 so people will need a lot of them.
