Anemos/Pagos currently dead.

Yes I know that the new patch is affecting who goes in there but I was in Anemos for an hour doing my weekly log and the player count never got above 25/144.

Popped over into Pagos and a (at least) 40 min instance had a whopping 3/144. Later one had 30/144

This is exactly what people said would happen as new patches came out.

This is proof of why there needs to be some sort of alternative way to get your relic. Put crystals on the weekly if you're capped. Put dailies in the hubs. SOMETHING.

This content can not survive on it's own. And it will be near impossible to get your relic down the line if changes aren't made.

As much as I would have loved to have a dyeable version of the Red Mage AF gear it's not worth suffering through the Eureka system. I wish we could get the dyeable version similar to how we can get the one for Heavensward by doing hunts/trading seals/getting the upgraded item. Eureka just takes way too long and having to relevel like that just doesn't make sense to me. If I wanted to play FFXI I'd be playing FFXI, and getting job gear for that game was far less painful than the Eureka system.

And I hope it stays that way.

I'm a returning player and this honestly worries me because I do want to get at least one relic from SB. :(

It's kind of a given that Eureka is dead. It was released late with an iLevel 370 weapon as the best reward and there's at least three new ways to get a better weapon than that in 4.4.

No great loss.

It's good it's dead, it's bad content.

As much as I'd love to have WHM relic and have done every WHM relic since 2.0... this one I'll be skipping out of since the content is as everyone says, just bad. Not worth suffering the boredom and just out right no fun.

Every relic thus far you've been able to get Solo this one should be no exception I can go back and get the arr and heavensward relics easily eureka is the only relic thus far that you absolutely have to rely on other people to get your relic in the most efficient way possible.

Others have already posted about this. It's EUREKA. No one expect it to live for too long. And it WILL be near impossible in future content to get this relic, since it's not casual friendly unlike the relics in 2.X and 3.X where you can do it on your own time and not have to drop everything you want to do for a weapon.
