Petition: Add Eureka Level Sync

Add Eureka Level Sync

This is in response to the current thread about why Eureka sucks.

We need Eureka Level Sync, so we can help the friends that are just starting in Eureka. It's nearly impossible for us to guide and assist them outside of attempting to spawn FATEs. De-Leveling is a poor way to help players.

The system exists, please enable it for Eureka. Let us Sync down to the lowest level in the party.

Please sign if you agree and want to help your fellow newbies. :o

Oh god yes please. Make it so we cant cheese exp unless we're only 5 levels above the sync or smt... if you have to prevent abuse, but yes, we need it really really badly...

Sure I'll sign this, anything to make the player experience more enjoyable is a good thing to me.

It's already old, dead content. IDGAF if you can cheese exp, it needs all the help it can get to not suck.

Im on board with anything that makes Eureka more playable in groups.

Currently i just shieldbot or Plvl with pagos bunny fate for friends. Would 100% prefer to just be able to sync to their level.

+1
Tbh, i'm shocked that they didn't realize this would be an issue the older the content became. Even Bozja figured that out and just locked everyone to 80, lol.

Yes please, I have friends and alts that I would very much like to do more of this with without the system being absolute garbage

If my experience on post-lockout savage is anything to go on, removing a penalty for people going back to do content won't get them to go back. Most people still treat content in this game as a one and done.
It at most is going to benefit a few people running Eureka with friends, but for everyone else it's not going to really be much of a beneficial change. People are still going to focus only on current content over helping old content.

I haven't even completed all Eureka has to offer and I don't care to go back. Bozja, maybe

don't think they'll implementing this because it defeat the purpose of the system

AS SOMEONE WHO WANTS TO DO THE STORY FOR THIS YES PLEASE

True. I was thinking back to when I did this and it really wasn't all that hard. I did the challenge log every week and eventually caught up to my friend. This wasn't meant to be farmed in a day.

Sure,it would be cool to do it with friends just getting into it outside of fates. But how would they do this? Sync it to lowest person in party? Feels like it would need a whole new system made for this for very old content that doesnt get updates.

You didn't understand, people just want a way to grind with their friends, Let say you are level 18 and your friends are level 3. Unless you do cheese strat, helping them will just cut their xp share and you can't play with them until they reach your level.

People just want to get synced down, so they can turn into a the same level as their friends to grinds with them. if anything, it stop cheese, and that thing is defeating the purpose of the system.

When it comes to boring repetitive content I'd rather not do away with cheese methods personally. Just my 2c.

If anything what they should do is remove elevels entirely and just make it a 70 capped zone since at the end of the day you're still just grinding fates anyway.

I don't agree.

Eureka is meant to be an hostile and misterious place.

Your "friends" or "fellow newbies" could start using the chat window or reading a wiki.

As I replied in the other thread related due to card wants..,
I do not give or deny.

It could lead to alot of things..,
possibly even a new additional deterrence to communication of Zone Tracking/Running. [had times when a streamer would come by, and whilst it wasn't their intentions at all.., the followers tend to bubble and keep tracking to their chats, despite existing trackers being long held public]

so I'll withhold vote.(though leaning to a, it's not completely, necessary)

That would probably help both groups, you could solo it easier without heavy penalties for making a mistake, the long grind of leveling would be dealt with, and you can group with anyone without penalty.
Both solo players and grouped players win in that.

That's not how the zone was designed and they're not about to go back and change it because years later a handful of people want a friend to help them. The grind isn't that bad if you just follow the challenge log. Going beyond that is an actual waste of time.

It's nice on paper, but I can imagine they will nerf the experience gained from mobs because as of the now the known cheese strat levels you -ridiculously fast-, I kid you not (power leveled a friend from fresh to lv60 in 3 days this way.)

So to illustrate... i.e. currently without cheese means you gain 50 per step vs cheesing gaining you 1000 per step... the new 'adjusted' system gain will be standardized into 500 per step regardless of what you do except afking.

If that sort of change came to be, I imagine that will upset the ones who learned how to capitalize the cheesing strat... but make newer people happier, I guess? Then again it's an old content.

That is in-fact how the zones were designed. The Challenge Log wasn't the only way, it just helps you determine certain farm spots. It all encourages collaboration for exp and NM Spawns. The only problem is the starting levels in each zone don't have enough players for coop. The system is literally designed for someone to tank with Elemental Def, and others to DPS, while maintaining continuous pulls for combo exp. Doing this solo is very difficult.

Eureka wasn't designed around playing solo just to do the challenge log. If that's actually how you played it, I'm sorry and that sounds kinda sad. It tries very hard to discourage solo-play in fact. lol

You don't need the cheese, playing normally with 2 players is good enough to 1-60 in 3 days. It's just trying to get 2 people at the same exact level isn't an easy thing to do. 'Cheese Strat' isn't even better, it's risky and only really beneficial as a solo player. We tried multiple cheese methods just to see how well they worked, and ultimately just ended up doing things normally by maintaining the combo on mobs that were 2-3 levels higher than us, and focusing on group types that could transform.

Which is why we propose a sync.

Also they already did modify the Eureka experience with Echo, and gave everyone mounts. They've changed how the zones work multiple times, they can continue to do it.


This is exactly what I'm talking about - It's clear people don't understand how Eureka works, and if they just had level sync to properly play together before max level in each zone they would actually understand and appreciate this.

On Materia it took around 6 hours to shieldbot a warrior from pagos to hydatos using sage to just spam shields on them non stop while they AOE pulled any mob that transforms.

Really not that bad, but its a boring experience all around, would rather just be able to party up and play together instead of using cheese strats to avoid an outdated system.

Why do you think there's a line of people just waiting to carry new players through Anemos if only they were able to level sync? There's no incentive to go back through this content even with a sync and it's not like people are exactly lining up for it.
What's so special about enforcing the hard rules about there needing to be dozens of players to make the content work? Why not just make it easier to solo if that's the reality of how people are forced to play the content?

Would be nice if solo was easier - But the content as a whole doesn't incentivize it at all. I could maybe see this being possible if they doubled the Element bonuses and you could stack DEF and ATK so you can pull groups and tank. But as it currently stands you have to do one or the other, and it's very difficult to maintain chains, or spawn NMs solo.

I personally really like the coop incentives, and I'm getting a little sick of everything being turned into single-player content. So at least this way we can have the coop incentive AND have an easier way of bringing new players into the instance.

A lot of people DO want to run Eureka, they just.. Can't unless there's other people with them their exact level, so they're kinda stuck doing Challenge Log. I'd love to be able to help people without cheese, to actually spawn NMs AND get them exp for it. But as it currently stands, it's one or the other, not both.

And you don't need a "Line of people waiting to carry" - At least give us a system so they can ask for a party regardless of level and get something out of it.

Honestly, yes, I'd be deeply in favor of this.

We have a lot of folks in my FC who want to get their feet wet in Eureka, but we take them into Anemos and they are level 4 or whatever, and you have a bunch of folks who are level 60. And sure, Anemos syncs the Eureka endgamers to level 20, but that still borks any option to help the level 4 folks. So instead, you drop party and run around trying to spawn FATEs, or else you help them cheese their way through, because it's the only way you can do stuff together until they are at roughly the same level.

And eventually they make it up to 18-20 and you can do Pazuzu and stuff together and yay it's great, we're all in a party and... wait, now we're off in Pagos, and the process starts again. Well, back to FATE-spawning or cheese strats, I guess, or else you just turn the newcomers loose to try to do stuff on their own. And honestly, Eureka isn't nearly so enjoyable when entirely alone.

So yeah, I agree that the current system discourages playing in a group, which feels like the opposite of what Eureka actually wants people to do.

Adding this feature wont stop players from doing the solo experience. The only thing that change is that now you can do it with friends. Who forced you to play the content solo too? there alway was people doing fate train when I farmed Eureka earlier in 2022.

Guess it to much for people to ask that they can do content with their friend in a MMORPG in a zone that literally about running FATE train with tons of people.

Also it not like killing mobs is an issue solo anyway, Warrior can pull tons of mobs and survive solo ez and you can call out healer if you die anyway. I legit don't see where the issue is.

How is choosing the appropriate NM to spawn to abuse the lv sync with is “isn’t easy thing to do”? Or are we even thinking about the same ‘cheese strat’?

Abuse the level sync? I don't know what you mean, but I'll try my best..

Leveling and NM prep groups are separated for the most part and most players are either doing NM prep or bunnies, so you can join a prep group but you'll almost never get exp unless they're within 2 levels from you. It's common for all of the NM prep groups to be max level for that zone. Sometimes NM groups take up good exp spots so you need to leave. You can only form a prep group for exp if you manage every player and kick them as soon as they level above the rest. Even exp groups need to cull often. Kicking players to keep group exp optimal feels bad, because 1 player that levels above the range can cut your exp by basically half.

Also there are like 4 different 'cheese strats', some depend on specific groups of mobs, some are best solo, some require a high level friend. But ultimately they gain at roughly the same or worse rate as 2 players at the same level killing things optimally - Where 1 is a tank and the other DPS or Heal, by keeping chains up 1-5lv above you, and ideally have a chance to mutate. The 'cheese' isn't really getting you amazing exp, it's just to let you solo better, or play with a higher level friend.

2 players doing DPS and pulling massive groups is much quicker than the cheese of 1 DPS getting healed by their buddy. lol

Okay, so I was thinking something different. Thank you for clarifying that \o/

What I had in mind was to have the group prep an NM in appropriate level range. Let's say, newcomer is a lv8 in Anemos and the friend is a capped lv60 in Eureka:

• The group can pick any NM that syncs the helper friend within 8 level in difference vs the newcomer.
• Once the NM spawns, instead of killing off the NM, let the helper gather up mobs -around- the NMs instead while making sure the mobs aren't anywhere higher than 8 levels vs the newcomer; I find 4-6 higher levels are the sweet number. But sometimes even 1-2 or 7-8 higher levels in difference are still faster than any other cheese strats I've read due to sheer number of mobs you can pull and easily kill.
• Drop those mobs down to critical HP then hit that "Lv Sync" before finishing off the pull while making sure both helper and newcomer can see each other's name in party list lights up.

I'm not entirely sure how your DC's NM etiquette works. Over here if you're the prepper, the group have roughly 3 minutes before the NM is pulled provided the PT is being called, and additional 1-2 minute before the NM dies. This is plenty of time for a massive experience gain. No deleveling or exiting party required. One-two levels per NM is almost guaranteed; more if the helper is uberly geared with elemental bonus items unless the NM is pulled early for whatever reason. Bunny FATE is also available for the abuse if they're around & will not disrupt anybody in the zone.

The only downside to this is if you happened to zone in into juiced instance with no appropriate NMs left spawn. But between Anemos' least activeness and the other 3 zones providing bunny FATEs, I find that particular situation is rather... uncommon. There's always at least 1 FATE that can be used to abuse the lv sync.

EDIT: In other day I found somebody shouting in Pagos about leaving the lv25 NM alone to facilitate this abuse and the zone complies. They took their sweet 10 minutes before eventually decided they've had enough. While I think this is also viable, I'm not quite a fan of holding the NM on hostage, but I guess it also worked... not something I'd do though, hence my 3-5 minutes limitations.

That one's actually new to me! I think it might require too many braincells for Aether. lol

As a solo player, you can wait for NM pop - But problem I found was the first half of the levels in each zone you're mostly left out. Hydatos doesn't have it so bad because the zone is open* and high levels are near base, so you can just sit at base and as a low level people are OK with you waiting for NM pop. This issue is especially bad in Pagos & Pyros because your selection is slim and travel is too slow/dangerous.

All's good, glad to share the tricks.

For first half of the levels each zone, I find this is only an issue for Anemos specifically because they don't have constant supply of low lv range of NM/FATE while the other 3 zones have virtually 100% active bunny FATE around. In Pagos, it's very easy to power level folks quickly from 17 to 24 around the south bunny FATE. From that point, the newbie friend only have to gain 3 levels elsewhere to reach lv27, which again puts them within the eligible lv range to receive experience from their lv35 helper friend's kills.

Pyros is no different except with the added icing: logos actions, which gives more power to solo player to make their lives easier (Platebearer and Bloodbath says hello). South bunny fate lv sync can be used to easily bring the newcomer lv to 38-39 range. After that they just have to gain 2-3 additional levels to reach lv41 which puts them in eligible range to yet another cheese strat: reflect cheese up to lv50. Or 60 even if you want to count Hydatos' because the entire lv range of Hydatos can also be cheesed with reflects.

The reason why I think they will nerf the experience gain from mob should permanent level sync became a thing is because that's essentially making the experience gain akin to the rate of reflect cheese at Pyros/Hydatos available virtually -anywhere- within Eureka, and I'm sure people know just how ridiculously fast reflect cheese method is to level up.

All they really need to do to prevent the cheese is to add some physical mobs around the magic, or blood sense?

This is all why I love Eureka, there's so much nuance to everything, and different ways to do stuff. I only wish we could sync at will to help in a non-cheese way if we wanted.

One way to make it even faster is to let the reflector stays reflecting while the helper stays in party, killing the physical mobs around the reflector. Couldn't remember exactly how much long this process from lv42 to 50, but I think I remember reading my friend saying they only used up 2 plates of Reflects (198 reflect charges in total). Solo player using solely reflects to cheese also doesn't have to worry about travel time from each NM's sites or wait time. They can just keep going on. You are right about the diminishing return though, which usually starts to kick in once the player hits lv47. At that point if they can land themselves an active high end NM prep group they will level faster in those groups.

This already exist.... somewhat in Hydatos mammets (far northwest corner) that people use to reflect cheese from lv50-57. If folks attempts this cheese strat during nighttime, the mammets will mutate and start performing physical attack (which guaranteed to instantly kill the reflector because they're always doing this naked lmao).

I cannot support this petition. I'll explain more when I get off of work.

/ popcorn ... ... ...

I can understand why some folks would not want a Eureka level sync. I mean, unless they rewrite how the Forbidden Land challenge logs work, you could absolutely abuse a straight level sync to cheese those. So I'm going to pose a secondary question here: if you don't like the idea of a level sync, what alternative would you propose to let higher-level folks come actually do things with lower-level friends?

In particular, consider the example I gave of folks in my FC who want to do Eureka, but don't want to do it solo. Eureka veterans are happy to go in with them, but until they get near a zone's cap, all we can do with them is either wander off to spawn NMs (and then party up and level sync for the NM) or XP-cheese them through a zone.

My FC usually settles on the former, because it's marginally less mindless than cheeseball power-leveling... but it's still a bummer, because you have to leave the low-level person to wander off and do stuff on their own, while the high-level folks group up and head off to try to get level-appropriate NMs to spawn for them.

The fact that Eureka penalizes folks for grouping up to play with others (if there's any sort of level differential) feels backwards, in an MMO... especially when the content is no longer current and thus no longer as active.

So, if you aren't in favor of a general party level sync to let the higher-level Eureka veterans level down to stay partied with their new-to-Eureka friends, what alternative fix for that scenario would you propose?

First off, I appreciate the time you all are taking to read this. When I write why I cannot support the petition, I speak on the journey Eureka and the overall impact this specific content had on me as a person. I implore you to listen to my story as it is long but will be broken down into 4 sections. This will hopefully give you clarity on why I make my stance on keeping Eureka the way it is.

Anemos:
I embarked on my journey with the intention of grinding well over 50 hours to equip my secondary class (PLD) with his elemental gears for glamour purposes. I crafted over 100 EXP pots and invested about 300k in high end foods in preparation. I had no help from levels, 1-15. I did all content alone. I did not die but there were very few people around and it was only until I activated a fate by accident did I start to understand the rules set in place. I was encouraged to be more vocal in chat for fates and spent well over 10 hours in Anemos. This time investment allowed me to fully understand the mechanics in Eureka as well as limit test my PLD. This time investment was completely worth it, and I still had drive to get my elemental armor.

Pagos:
For the first few levels in Pagos, I again was alone. I had no help, and I was punished severely for my mistakes. I died a few times and due to no rezzing from anyone. I truly felt alone, and it was entirely up to me to get the elemental armor. This section, of my journey taught me many things such as patience and to take it upon myself to group up with people my level. In essence, my leadership skills dramatically increased during this time, and I felt responsible for keeping my party alive at all costs because I fully understood what happens if I failed. Again, I was doing this for my Paladin. I created parties and mass pulled like old MMOs. I made it my mission to get everyone past this section in my moments of despair of giving up on my goals to get the armor. I spent roughly 15 hours getting to 35 by leading my parties and keeping them alive.

Pyros:
35 hours in and my drive was brighter than ever because of the trials I endured in the past 2 sections. I was able to get into fate parties easier and my goals slowly started to shift from getting the armor to the actual journey and friends made along the way. Pyros, is the place where flames go out due to burn out and I did suffer this part way but the comradery of spamming the red yeti dance and the mutual teamwork of working together made the 10 to 13 hours go by much faster. I continued to hone my skills of my PLD and had newfound vigor to transcend the limits of what I can accomplish with my class. This was also the time where I started noticing the bunny botting and RMT chicanery from leveled alts which could only be possible from taking advantage of the challenge log to power level accounts.

Hydratos:
45 hours in I was in the homestretch and completely shifted my mindset from the gears to pushing my class to the limits and making more friends in the process. The bunny bots still are here which is a shame. I received my elemental armor around the 51st hour.

In Summary:
Eureka is more than a relic/armor hunt. It is a journey to self-improvement and by continuing to dumb down the exp to make things easier to new people. You are depriving them of reaching their full potential. There is a reason why so few people have elemental armor. The ones who failed are the ones who gave up climbing the mountain of Eureka and failed to transcend to their highest potential. They failed to adapt and be resilient/patient enough to make the climb. The journey to achieve it as well as the lessons I learned far outclass the look on the armor. That's when I fully understood what Eureka is really about. It is a way to push yourself to your absolute limits as both your class and you as a person. To never give into despair and be the voice for the voiceless. To stand firm on what you want and don't let anyone hold you back. To never surrender when things go awry. The armor itself is reflective of how much you have grown and transcended. This would never be possible without the time investment.

On a side note:
Dumbing down the EXP will only increase bunny bots and ruin the market.
