Underworld and Fissure of Woe Updates

* When entering into these regions, players will now receive a Mission Objective list in their Quest Log. This list informs players how many quests they must complete to finish the regions for the purposes of full completion and credit for the Hall of Monuments.
* Quests yet to be obtained are marked as "?????" in the Mission Objective list until they are discovered by at least one party member.
* Chests now spawn upon completion of all quests in either of these regions.

Do these chests drop normal UW/FoW weapons or are we getting new skins?

I'd say whatever you get from regular quest reward chests in UW/FoW like Tower of Strength or the monument quests.

Does clear the chamber give a chest now? I didn't see one earlier....not sure if it was before or after the update.

If that's true then Crystallines may drop, much to the disdain of some and pleasure of others.

Mmm. They still hold some value with a damage mod.

You get inscribable UW/FoW items, plus ecto or shards; similar to how the Urgoz / Deep chests work.

Seriously??? Wow. Thats pretty sweeet. I've been wanting an inscribable shadow staff for ages. If I ever get a decent one it will complement my inscribable chaos axe nicely. How many ectos/shards? One for each member of the group I suppose?

Done FoW on normal mode last night, got an onyx gem, a shard, an obsidian key and a rubbish spear.

Weapons were inscribable, others got shadow shields and other FoW items, think we pretty much all got a key.

I did all of FoW during the week...

Guess I'll do it again with another character. The rewards don't look too bad, but it does take about 4 hours to complete...
