Sturdy Pyxis

From ZenithXI

Were you looking for Abyssea Lights?



Sturdy Pyxises sometimes appear in Abyssea after you defeat monsters. The type and quality of Pyxis is determined by the Abyssea Lights of the player defeating the monster.

Types of Pyxises

Chests in Abyssea come in three different varieties with different effects as listed below.

Blue Sturdy Pyxis Red Sturdy Pyxis Gold Sturdy Pyxis
Azure Light Ruby Light Amber Light
Abyssites of Kismet Abyssites of Prosperity Abyssites of Destiny
  • Temporary items
  • Experience Points
  • Cruor
  • Time extensions
  • Pearlescent Light
  • Azure Light
  • Ruby Light
  • Amber Light
  • Golden Light
  • Silvery Light
  • Ebon Light
  • Higher-level temporary items
  • Notorious Monster pop items
  • Empyrean foot armor in Scars zones.
  • Augmented Equipment
  • Notorious Monster key items

The potential level of a colored pyxis is determined by the corresponding light of the player who dealt the final blow to the monster that dropped the pyxis.

  • Certain Abyssites (listed in the above table) will occasionally cause a chest to be a stronger than it would be normally.
  • Bastion in Scars zones and Dominion in Heroes zones can also cause chests to spawn stronger than they would normally.

It is possible to tell the relative power of a chest from the amount of cruor that you get from destroying it. (Although it is much easier to rest to examine the proper light.)

Chest Level Light Level Cruor Value
Lv1 0 - 48 10
Lv2 0 - 96 20
Lv3 48 - 144 30
Lv4 96 - 192 Verification Needed 40
Lv5 128 - 255 Verification Needed 50

Blue Sturdy Pyxis Values

Lv4 1000 800 HP, MP and TP 8 -
Lv5 1250 1000 HP, MP, TP & 1hr All to Alliance +10 Minutes
