I am completely frustrated with these Bozja duels. I went back almost a week to Bozja to get the remaining field notes, but it's just frustration to get the remaining 5* notes. I can't imagine how frustrating this is for the other players who are less lucky and who need to do other duels, and who need to be lucky enough to have a lot of people in the zones, and that common fates are ready to be generated, and have the patience that manages not to miss any mechanic to enter the Duel. Please responsible for the forum or whoever it is, take Bozja's content seriously and improve these stupid Duel mechanics, or shorten the Fates coldown window, or make these Field Notes sell for Bozja coins , or simply increase the drop rate of Fields Notes. I'm sure I'm just one of MANY players who would like to have an FFXII item but are on the verge of giving up because of these stupid mechanics that exist in Bozja.
I ask all players who follow the Forum and who would like an updated content from Bozja to react here, write something on Reddit so that someone responsible for the Forum can read this and try to help players.
I apologize for the english, but I had to use google translator to be able to write all this.

The good news in all this is you don't actually need to duel for the notes. I dreaded the thought, then one day I found myself in possession of the mount. :cool:

08-07-2022, 09:07 AMDavinci123I know I don't need to win the duels, but getting field notes currently in common fates is much worse than it was at the launch of the content, as there were several instances due to the high number of players who were making the new content.Quote:

08-07-2022, 09:16 AMDeverynIf anything, things got better because some notes were locked behind duels only. I never thought about how long it would take because I never thought I would get it. I finally got the last note in February.Quote:

You can farm Castrum and Dalriada for them instead, but it's a low drop chance.
The critical engagements spawn if you kill enough enemies to spawn them. You should be able to solo the CE if there isn't anyone else there and then you can do the duel. -

You have the option to do the Bozja Duels if conditions are right as you said, but if they aren't, you have other options available to you. If you don't want to do the other options, you are choosing to deal with the lack of players and RNG of getting the duel you want.
Rather than be frustrated, just take a break and do one of the alternatives for a day or so. Fates, etc. -

what Duels always had was 100% drop rate on the notes and are still required to get certain titles though -

Bozja content needs a bit of an adjustment. Mainly field note drops and they have to boost the XP given by CLL and Dal massively, as well as make DR give XP and probably even put it in DF at this point.

they should just allow for several duels at the same time. everyone who beats the fate without taking dmg should be able to do the duel.

It has needed a little more refinement from the start, and now that it will wax and wane like eurika does it needs a little more of a different type.

What you see is what you get. They already did a lot of xp and reward adjustments and made CLL, Dal and DR way more accessible.
-
08-09-2022, 09:17 AMTigerlilleyEureka too. The fiasco to get into Baldesion Arsenal as a premade group is still a horrific mess of jumping through useless hoops. I think they need to review this content that just dies once the expac is over and refine it down for players who weren't there the first time.Quote:

Thanks for the reminder about duel's existence, while everyone will do the new patch content, I will go to Bozja for these easy Duel queues.

08-12-2022, 04:29 PMDeverynspoken like someone who missed the releases of these spots. I was there for it all. It's way better than it used to be.Quote:

The duels are not so much a problem, how much do you want to cheese them and how much are you willing to invest into learning and buying the items needed?
Dabogs fight in the first zone takes 30 sec and Lyon in 2nd zone takes 60 seconds, all others fall between that. These are the numbers for a Caster but there are equally cheesy moves for most jobs.
These fights were designed to last over 5min with progressively worse mechanics, if you burn most fights they will do a few things but nothing to crazy.
None is gonna cry foul if you make use of every single essence and skill in there to get your last few pages, there's a lot of guides up on how to burn these fights effectively. Personally i don't think their "cheesed" anyway in a burn as it requires the knowledge and being able to pull of the right steps under pressure.
When ever I did my duels my worst enemy was always stressing myself out over it.
Also remember depending on which enemies you kill, you can force spawn certain fates for the notes you are still missing good luck on your hunt -

I got note 14 from the fate after a week or two of trying on and off (one attempt an hour normally, as that seemed to be the respawn time if someones killing scorpions), but cheesing the duels required so much weird, specific set up that it felt easier to me to just learn the encounter. Most of the time it's just dodging stuff and pressing Reflect for a mechanic or two... although I say that like I'm any good at them lol.
Dalriada/DR/CLL do seem to struggle a bit population wise on my DC (Chaos/moogle) but it seems very dependant on time of day. I've had 40 person dalriada runs at 6pm, and I've had attempts where nobody even queues for it (normally in night time or morning).
