    Oil of Time in Syrcus Tower?

    Hi everyone, I didn't think it was possible to get Oil of Time in Syrcus Tower yet but my partner and I both got one from there. I got mine on the last chest on my 1st run, she got hers on the last chest of her 2nd run. It counted as the weekly item so it wasn't in the 4th chest that only sometimes appears.

    Does anyone know anything else about this? I'm totally cool with it, just wondered

    Ya having oils in there now has me debating on whether I should use ST to gear an alt job or get oils every week to upgrade my mains jewelry. I haven't grabbed my loot yet this week. The small stat upgrade from oil just doesn't feel worth it to me over a brand new shiny piece of gear. Now if it was sands dropping the decision would be easy.

    Going by previous live letters they may add sands at a later date, but at present it is only oil and UAT. Also just to note, it is possible for both to drop for just one party; just had it happen to me (but I'd already grabbed Phlegethon's gauntlets...)

    Some people are claiming that sands also drop... And in interview with Yoshi, it appears as if oil is not supposed to drop yet.
    Confusion...

    Yeah... I've got this odd feeling that one of the update notes after tonight's maintenance may be "fixed issue wherein Oil of Time and Sands of Time were dropping in Syrcus Tower."

    We plan to introduce them within the 2.3x series of patches. The exact timing will depend on everyone's average item level as well as progression. But we don't intend to hold them out until 2.4 or anything.

    For the last boss, there's also an additional chance of a 4th treasure chest appearing that you can roll on with no lockouts. In exchange you will need to roll against all 23 other players.

    Yet i got locked out when i won the oil.
    the oil is a roll vs your team (8 people in total) and isn't in the 4th chest. So you're locked

    Considering a few of us have already had the oil drop it wouldn't be fair to remove it.
