Eureka with the blue

Hello,

It would be cool if blu could go into Eureka because 1. Eureka is old content and 2. It will give blus something else to do other then go into dungeon xyz just to get an achievement and never see it again.

Lot of us still run BA and some of us would love to do BA as a blu.

it's also the only other content in the game that actively uses the same element-centric system as BLU's attacks.

Honestly a weird choice not to let BLUs enter Eureka. It's old content that could be revitalized by BLUs having fun in it or just people wanting to use BLUs for actual grinding(relics). When you've capped spells and instances, this could be the best place for BLUs to keep using the job instead of waiting till next update, whenever that will be.

in all likelihood the devs don't want BLUs "ruining" people's previous BA clears (which could be mitigated by just having it give BLU achievements when playing a BLU rather than the normal ones but whatever), which iirc was the cited reason why BLU doesn't get to even attempt ultimates content.

edit: could also be some balancing issues with elemental levels and BLU's weird spell scaling (not requiring a mainhand weapon, etc)

At some point they're going to have to repurpose Eureka like they did with Diadem.
It would be perfect for BLU because the enemies have elemental resistances pre-programmed, and can be played solo or in a party.

In such a case it would really help if they communicated a bit more with the players compared to what they're doing now. If they tell us they want to limit BLU's access to Eureka because of BA, then players could perhaps persuade the devs to allow BLU in the zones, but not BA. But at the moment we have no idea why BLUs are excluded at all.

To be honest, I don't think it's programmed resistance/weakness based on the type of damage the player does. BLM and RDM deal fire/lightning/ice/wind/earth type damage and doesn't have any effect on damage that I recall.
