    Well many players myself included were absolutely tired of running the same old dungeons over and over that we have already done many times so SE wanted to change it up.
    I honestly blame a large portion of how late Eureka was implemented and they should have not bothered with Relic at that point as it was obsolete and will continue to be the remainder of the expansion. ARR and moreso Heavansward we were much further into Relic by this time and it had some relevance, SB it does not.
    So i am not so sure that having Relic is what is keeping Eureka on life support

    This is understandable, but I think more than anything, the complaint isn't that you have to do Eureka, but that you have no choice but to do Eureka.

    With the anima weapon, there were always multiple avenues available to you to complete every step of the weapon, now there's only one. Before I could run beast tribes and alexander normal to get unidentifiable items, later you could craft the items needed, or you could buy them with GC seals. When it came to the oil for the second phase, you could get that from the Crystal Tower raids once a week, or you could buy them with tomestones. And of course with every step, both was also an option.

    If they kept Eureka an option for this weapon while still letting those who don't enjoy the content get the progress they needed for the weapon outside that zone, even if they progress it at a slower rate than they would inside Eureka, I think people wouldn't be as angry about this system.
