Notes
Chests	Each level has 4 Elementals, each of which drops an Armoury Crate: one time chest (15 minutes), one restore chest, and 2 items chests per floor. You can only open one chest per floor: Opening a chest causes the remaining Elementals and any other chests on that floor to despawn, and also opens the portal to the next level. One of the two items chests on any given floor is "fake", and contains a Mystic Avatar of the floor's element. Opening this chest will despawn the remaining Elementals, but not any chests that are already on the ground. The remaining chests will lock until the avatar is defeated, at which point you will be permitted to open one of the other chests to open the gate to the next level. If no other chests are present, the gate will automatically open upon the avatar's defeat. Every "true" item chest has 5-7 Ancient Beastcoins. (see Chest Stratgies)
Portal	The portal to the next floor opens once someone opens a chest.
Others	Elementals Elementals have about 8000 HP. Elementals are strong against magic of their own element and against the element their own is strong against. All Elementals are immune to Silence. Elementals take 50% reduced damage from both physical and magical attacks. Elementals in this zone have a chance to trigger a status effect on their auto-attacks in accordance with their element (see below). However, if they cast an Enspell, their attacks will no longer be able to trigger these status effects, because the Enspell effect will take priority. All Elementals have Fast Cast III, reducing their spellcasting time by 20%. Avatars Mystic Avatars have approximately 5000 HP. Mystic Avatars take full damage from magic and physical attacks. Mystic Avatars are immune to any form of Sleep. A Mystic Avatar's Astral Flow attack can be Stunned, or severly mitigated by Barspell plus Carol. If the Mystic Avatar is at the bottom of one of the tall ramps on some of the levels, players at the top of the ramp will not be hit by Astral Flow due to the height difference.
