Hey there,

I was really excited that we were getting the second part of the Crystal tower in patch 2.3. But after the live letter XV from E3, i was actually disappointed.


Q: What's the drop rate for the unidentified Allagan tomestone, the sands of time, and oil of time?
A: As I mentioned during the previous Letter from the Producer LIVE, they will not all be dropping at the same time. We'll add them gradually as we progress through patches. We're planning to have unidentified Allagan tomestones drop first, and the drop rate will be about 30%. We'll be making adjustments based on the clear rate of the Second Coil of Bahamut and everyone's average item level.

So basically there is no incentive (for your main job) for someone with an animus weapon and fully soldiery equipped to go in the crystal tower until they add the sand of time in the loot table.
