UAT in Syrcus Tower

[Lithera]

I'm fairly sure it's mentioned in all the other patch notes. It's kind of like the Ramuh prerequisites in the Ramuh preview. The English preview had ???s whereas the other versions of the preview actually stated that you needed Levi and Moggle EX clears. Made for some arguments on the English forums here. In this case there's a precedent set by Labyrinth of the Ancients where the bonus 4th chest is the crafting material needed for the housing item. It's reasonable to assume that the patch notes released in languages other than English are correct and the Syrcus Tower 4th chest is the item needed to make Xande's Throne and the UAT will likely drop from each Alliance's final boss chest at whatever drop rate they've decided on and it will eat your weekly item allotment.

Also I do have an Animus and am working on the Novus for DRG but one of the first things I want to do is get a Conqueror for WAR because I don't feel like going through the Animus grind again at this moment. I'm actively looking for a Second Coil static and I look more attractive if I'm potentially viable as a DPS OR a tank.

ok, wrong spelling, but there's isn't enhancement item mentioned either.

The poster did say it was mentioned in the French patch notes. Yoshi-P also said this on the live letter. Sands will drop from Syrcus tower at a rate of 30%. The notes did mention a 4th chest shared across all alliances so I'm thinking that one will hold sands. If true only one of the 24 members can obtain sands.

Anyone else notice the patch notes about this duty having 1 tank, 2 heals and 5 dps?

I was gonna assume that the fourth chest at the end of the tower was the crafting needed to make the new furnishing based off ST, like the fragment blade.

You can receive only one reward item per week for completing duties in Syrcus Tower. In the event you are awarded an item from the loot list, you relinquish your right to vie for all remaining items regardless of whether you selected Need or Greed. If time expires and a reward item is obtained automatically, this will also count toward the weekly limit.
* Reward eligibility is reset every Tuesday at 1:00 a.m. (PDT).

Each party in the alliance will receive its own treasure chest, the contents of which will be identical regardless of the route taken.
* Players cannot open a treasure chest belonging to another party.

A fourth treasure chest may occasionally appear upon defeating the last boss of Syrcus Tower. The above restrictions do not apply to this treasure chest.

That is from the english patch notes, meaning the 4th chest does not follow the weekly lockout. It is also not stated what exactly is in the 4th chest, so that will remain a mystery until a later time. Hope this clears it up.


- Party Role Requirements
Paｒties matched automatically via the Duty Finder will comprise 1 tank, 2 healers, and 5 DPS. Parties formed prior to registration must also meet these role requirements.

AND FINALLY! NO MORE DEALING WITH NOOB OT!!!! XD

but seriously i like this. QQ all you want but it means there will be less tanks slacking off like there is in Laby runs nowadays. And the extra dps means less Q time for them which is not a bad thing. Loot really doesnt matter when it comes down to it. Its better overall for everyone imo.

To add on this :

Les équipements et objets de renforcement ne peuvent être obtenus qu'à raison d'une fois par semaine, indépendamment des jets besoin/cupidité.
Si des jets besoin/cupidité sont effectués sur plusieurs objets, ils seront ignorés une fois un premier objet obtenu.
Un objet non passé et obtenu par distribution automatique au bout du temps imparti est pris en compte dans cette limite hebdomadaire.
* La limite est réinitialisée tous les mardis à 8h00 (GMT).

Chaque équipe reçoit son propre coffre de butin indépendamment des autres.
* Il est impossible d'ouvrir les coffres des autres équipes.
* Les contenus des coffres sont similaires quel que soit le chemin emprunté par l'équipe.

Dans la Tour de Syrcus, un 4e coffre peut apparaître sous certaines conditions une fois le dernier boss vaincu. Il n'est pas concerné par les limitations ci-dessus.

French patch notes.

The bolded part means "Gear and enhancement items (i.e : sand/oil/UAT) can only be obtained once a week, regardless of the need/greed rolls"

With that in mind, the sentence for the 4th chest means that it won't contain sands/oil/UAT, but an other item with absolutely no lockout. Probably crafting material for the vanity furnishing.

[PetiteMalFleur]

The CT crafting item was restricted by the weekly lockout. The reference to the 4th coffer not being subject to the "previous restrictions" appears to be referencing the part that says alliance specific coffers can only be opened by their own alliance members.

The post is very unclear though. It really could be referring to either the weekly lockout or the restriction on opening coffers belonging to another alliance or both.

[Zdenka]

The bonus 4th chest is probably just like the Dimensional Fragment in CT1

Uats can drop from the tower, as can oil of times, as I had both drop in my first (only) run through... Both at the end (though I don't know if a fourth chest spawned)... They lock you out of loot like any other item

[Adler]

There is a post in general discussion where someone had picture of minion drop in chest at last boss together with gear piece and UAT. Not sure 100% but I think that minion actually was the 4th chest, not UAT.
