Gold Sturdy Pyxis

Category:Abyssea
After defeating foes in any of the Abyssea zones in Final Fantasy XI, there is a chance that a Sturdy Pyxis will appear. Depending on their fortunes, adventurers may encounter Blue, Gold, or Red Sturdy Pyxides. Gold pyxides will appear with greater frequency and yield superior spoils when you increase amber Visitant Lights.
Gold Sturdy Pyxis are unlocked via a number guessing game similar to that of Treasure Caskets. A Gold Sturdy Pyxis will require you to correctly guess a number between a range of values (For instance, guess the number between 11 ~ 33). After each guess, you will receive a clue about the target number. 
Peering between the crack will allow you to see exactly what is contained in the chest. This type of chest also has an extremely large version, which usually contains key items for popping higher tier NMs in the area you are in. However, they can also contain potent temporary items or powerful augmented equipment.
==Chest Tiers==
There are various tiers of chest, which can be identified by the spread of numbers you are able to input:
Tier	Spread of Numbers
I 	11~33
II 	11~44
III 	11~55
IV 	11~77 (Small Chests)
IV 	11~90 (Big Chests)
