The Shifting Gymnasion Agonon

“

Nestled in a corner of Elpis, the testing ground of creation, lies the Gymnasion Agonon, a facility constructed to gauge the limits of familiars. Precisely how many of its trials Azem's familiar can withstand, and whether or not they will discover the treasure hidden in its depths is something of a debate among the ancients. For curiosity's sake─and undoubtedly to stave off boredom─ethereal observers watch with bated breath from within...

— Patch 6.3 Special Site

The Shifting Gymnasion Agonon, released in patch 6.3 of Endwalker, is a special instance for Treasure Hunt similar to The Shifting Altars of Uznair and The Shifting Oubliettes of Lyhe Ghiah. It can be accessed after finding and opening treasure coffers obtained from Timeworn Ophiotauroskin Map. Here, players will have the chance to test their luck and obtain priceless treasures.

• Level Requirement : Disciple of War or Magic level 90
• Item Level Requirement: None
• Item Level Sync: 635
• Party Size: 1-8
• Time Limit: 60 minutes

Progression

Upon entering the instance, players will find an arcane sphere which must be used to perform an invocation. Doing so will trigger a roulette wheel, summoning forth one or more creatures to serve as the first trial.

A treasure chest will appear upon defeating the enemies summoned. Only the player who opened the teleportation portal can access it. After claiming the contents of the treasure chest, the arcane sphere can be used again to initiate the next trial.
