Treasure Cache System
New Monsters are appearing across the land carrying treasure.
Started Testing October 6th, 2016 Tier 1 is being used for testing the system
Update
The rewards when received in game felt very lack luster. So were doing the following to beef up the rewards.
- We are removing all crafting ingredients from the reward list. Instead the entire tier is being replaced with consumables of various types
- 11-3-2016 The Mimics will start appearing across the land
- Bronze Keys can be sources from first job changes. This will be retroactive if you talk to the final NPC in the quest.
So that we can get proper testing were resetting everyone that got a box this week, fixing the issue that prevented rewards in a small amount of boxes, and lowering the requirement to 99/60 50
- Each monster above slain will drop a treasure cache appropriate for its tier.
- Monsters will be distributed based on map level.

Q/A
- Q: What are the future plans for the lucky/groove box consumables? Are they gonna be part of the treasure cache instead or something?
- A: The higher tier boxes will make the lucky box consumables available.
- Q: will these be every map? or will consideration be taken for maps that have to be visited for first job change quests, janeways, ect?
- A: Most maps will eventually receive at least one spawn
- Q: what are map lvls in classic, and how do you define high,med,and low lvl ranges?
- A: Based on the monsters that reside on the map and how its used.
- Q: any chance on getting keys for the job changes we have already done?
- A: Eventually Yes
- Q: bronze keys should be a possible drop from "forcing" open a box.
- A: It is something to consider. But bots are unfortunately a thing and we are currently unsure if this would provide more of a benefit to bots versus normal players.
