    Crystal Tower Explote

    Never done this yet but seems like it may work. How you are locked out of drops every week is once you obtain one item the loot list never appears for you again until monday.


    What if you never open any chests until reaching the end? Basically have players go back to other boss rooms and open the chests so theres 4 items in the loot pool. Have 1 person lot on all 4 items and have everyone pass. There you earned 4 items within one week.

    Go back into Crystal towers again with your Free Company and repeat it it again 7 more times. Your Free Company 8 man static has earned 32 Crystal Tower drops instead 8 a week.

    Like I said never tested it yet but any you mind testing this out.

    Unless it's different for Crystal Tower, the items are only rollable for a few minutes. So unless your group can power through all the bosses in a couple of minutes, it's not really even worth acknowledging.

    You dont open any of the chests until dungeon is completed. Split pt to run to each boss room open the chest. No need to zerg through the dungeon.

    I imagine the nano-second it takes for the first and second piece to drop would be enough for the software to lock you out, so the rest would drop to the floor.

    He said to not open any of the chests, so you would just need to make a dash to each boss room again. Though I'm fairly certain the loot lockout is instant the second it hits your pool and the three other items would instantly hit the ground. If the OP is correct and someone pulled this off then prepare for a hotfix.

    wouldn't work as soon as you claim need or greed for an item your locked out for the week the other items would just rot because you can't obtain them.

    You don't get locked out until you win an item. There would be so much more complaining if you got locked out just for hitting need or greed.

    I don't know if something like this would work though. It seems too simple, like something that should've definitely been thought of already when they were putting it all together. If it does though, I think the best way to do it would be to have 1 person roll on everything (if they can), and have everyone else leave the instance so all the items get defaulted to you at the same time. Just rolling and passing leaves time for the system to recognize that you got something, same with letting the timers expire.

    That's definitely an interesting question. Not sure if anyone has tried it.

    I mean, you could potentially open all the chests at the same time, and someone could roll need on all of them and see what happens o_0

    Never thought of that... but the other two parties might get suspicious of one of the chests is left closed after every boss. And then there's the chance that once you get one of the items that the rest will fall away into limbo as such are wont to do in every other dungeon if everyone passed.
