I for some reason have a obsession with this area, and have almost finished every tower. My most interesting find up to this date, though, is the Avatar door located in the no cap tower near the Ranguemont Pass zone. I fully explored/conquered this zone with my 74 MNK friend Makzilla.

At the end, near a teleporter which takes you back to the outside zone, there is a unopenable door called the Avatar Gate.

Unfortunately, I could not take any screen shots as I had ran out of oil/powder and was having problems getting to a place to recast sneak/invisible to get around the T-VT Diremite that plagued the room said door is in.

When examined, this door reads: "This door is glowing from the inside, but it is locked tight." This may read different to other people, as Mak got just: "The door is locked tightly."

I'm not sure how this is opened, and allakhazam hasn't had any developments on this door either.

I've asked friends that are far down the road in CoP missions, and they don't have any idea either.

I've also tried using most every item in this zone on said door, with no prevail. I checked the drops in the area, and I've used every item that's exclusive to that zone alone.

If anyone at all has any idea on how to get past this door, or would like me to help them get the key items needed to get past 2 other doors needed to get to this certain gate, I'll be happy to help try to open it/help you get there.
 
I'm right there with you..

I heard about this the first week of the Promyvion release, and no one even those who completed the CoP quests had any information on said gate.

But a Data Miner has suggested the existance of new avatars(Pheonix being one), perhaps this is something for that?
 
Possibly, what just popped into my mind was maybe, being that it's name is the Avatar Gate, that it requires a SMN to summon a certain avatar(possibly a unreleased one) and then check the gate for it to open?

It could also be a zone to a Cloister like area, for a avatar fight, and you need the corresponding tuning fork(or whatever item it might be) to enter this room and fight said avatar.
 
oooo i remember that place since i got killed by a trap. I remember being some door that couldn't be opened by just clicking on it, though the door I am speaking about may not be the one you're talking about.

Nearby this door were 2 rooms I think, and one of them happened to be opened. There was a switch or something inside this room. Being the curious person that I am, I went to go click it. Next thing I know, the door shuts, leaving me trapped inside. Then 2 Dolls NMS spawned and started attacking me. I attacked one of them and used my 2hr just to be safe. However the 2hr ability effect was used by these two dolls. However the log did not say which special ability it used. The monster i was attacking then became invincible, and i went to attack the other. Same thing happened again and I had to switch targets again.

However I died ._. and was quite upset lol. This may not be related to what you may be speaking of, but still a story of the horrible place called pso'xja.
 
Play through all the CoP missions and those gates will be explained to you and you will get to see what is behind all of them.
 
Yeah Chun, those NMs have to be killed to open other gates to get deeper in, theirs 2 pairs of them, blue and green, each being tougher from the next. They're quite easy to kill if you know the pattern of invincibility, and switch over as soon as that happens.

Dua: Really? That's interesting to think about, any chance you might know what really is behind those door(s)?
 
just more incentive to start doing more missions ^_^b. Very interesting indeed.
 
yo tymon you can help me get there sometime ^^
 
What tower? I've never seen the frozen bombs(snolls) before in my 7 trips.
 
2nd day after they released COP I wandered around in Pso'Xja, in search of the rumored "new protocrystal"... but I never found it. I did come across these traps though... haha I freaked when they spawned and started beatin on me, but I managed to get my avatar out and whip 'em up. Only thing you gotta do is watch which one has invincible on... one doll is always invincible, while the other is vulnerable... they trade off.
 
Ya, those traps are no fun at all. For on of the CoP mission, you have to fight your way through a Gauntlet of those traps (Cap 50 tower)
 
For anyone who's gotten to chapter 3 of the Promathia missions, there's a quest given by an NPC in the cathedral in Upper Jeuno. He gives you a key item (called Phoenix Armlet or some such) and asks you to go beyond the Avatar Gate in one of the towers (the one closest to Ranguemont) and activate a machine.

Much like you do for Windurst mission 6-1, except you don't have to fight anything for this quest. Well, aside from those dolls to get the key items to get deep enough into the tower to get *to* the gate. Quest reward is, if I'm remembering right, just gil.

As for the remaining towers ... don't know yet. Though in my own explorations, I also found an Avatar Gate at the bottom of the one that has the three Rhinostery tarus right outside the entrance. (That tower is also uncapped.)
