Please stop making Eureka

[Reynhart]

You are being nitpicky. It’s an implication.

You can't claim an "implication" as fact. Especially when grinding for hours or even days is hardly an activity loved by the majority. In fact, I really doubt Zodiac/Anima ownership is really that high, even if XIVDB's numbers aren't perfectly accurate.

Again, the Relic is not niche content like you are trying to claim.

Do you have actual numbers to claim that ? Yet, you still use the Anima to claim what purpose should fill the Eureka weapon, when the purpose was already different between the Zodiac and the Anima, since the Anima was never a good weapon for content progression.

They literally threw every new optional item from Patch 4.45—minions, mount, hairstyle, housing items—into Pyros because the Relic is no longer enough

They threw every 4.45 items in the only 4.45 content. When was the last time a new item came from an old content ?

I understand you hate Tomestones, but the Anima relic also had other ways of getting most of the same items you could buy with tomestones, including the worst step of that Relic (pre-nerf): Unidentifiables

Yes, I loved that step for that single reason. You still had Myth Books, the Ink for Novus, Sacred water for the Zodiac, Mahatmas for Zeta...and the atrocious 24000 tomestones for the Umbrites...that I did three times. And slowly or not, tome farming is still doing the same thing over and over for days, especially since it the de facto way of gearing since the very beginning of 2.0. Give me Eureka as the main source of gear for 5 years straight it would also bore me eventually.

Yikes! 4%! That's less people than cleared O8S if I remember from Lucky Bancho which had the total number of players who had Air Force at 12%.

Frankly, I wouldn't be suprised if the majority of people simply skipped the Anima, considering you could get an equal weapon easier and/or sooner without doing Savage. But I still see a problem when using the achievements to judge how many characters are actually owning an Anima Lux, because, since each weapon has its own achievement, if one character has all of them, he would count 13 times.
