    Also the same as the upgraded tome weapon that was made available for everyone 1 month earlier. At no step was the Anima weapon better that what you could obtain easier and faster, except for the very final one.
    The existence of the welfare Tomestone weapon does not mean that, suddenly, the Relic wasn’t intended for the majority of players to participate in and achieve. Another point in that same post that I quoted for you is that the Relic also serves to give players a weapon that grows with them. Tome weapons don’t do that—the function of the relic is multi-faceted, but it’s still aimed at the general playerbase. Not this niche audience that people are trying to claim.

    By shoving it into Eureka, it made Eureka aimed at them by default. And, as I’ve said many times, the Relic (and the other shinies) being in Eureka is the only reason people even touch the content, and that’s something I think the developers realized when they were creating the content.

Putting emphasis on Eureka is a way to sooth that complain. Eureka is also one of the only content that goes outside the "basic formula", which is also a reccuring concern about the game.
    Eureka doesn’t have anything deviating from any other forms of Relic grinds in past expansions though—we have FATE farming a la Atma/Crystal step, token farming (the Crystals) a la the i260 Anima step with the Singing Clusters, and then light farming (a la both Zodiac and Anima). The only “different” thing that was done, was requiring you to go to a new area for it...which they semi-attempted with the Anima relic with Diadem 1.0 (major foreshadowing there). So that’s not even unique.
