Is Eureka going away?

[Hyperia]

Eureka will remain, but once 5.0 arrives, it will essentially be abandoned and gone. If you don't do it now, it will be incredibly difficult, if near impossible, to proceed in the future.

I think Eureka is mostly a testing lab for the developers to live test theories and ideas on the players to see which ideas will work, which will not and the various resistance levels players have to their ideas.

No itll always be in the game
and we will still have threads about it in 5.0 even if they don't make any stuff like it

I fear the metrics will tell them it was a success, possibly even the most successful iteration of relic grinds.

well compared to other relic grinds this is pretty easy

Always hating on this mode. I like it, please keep it around. If you don't like it, go do something else. First pvp hate now this. Just stop.

Sure, Eureka can stay...
...if you take the Relic and all the other carrots out of it in 5.0.

My thoughts exactly.

I do in fact, go do something else instead of Eureka, I still have the right to complain about it though and you can't stop me or others.

Especially if it means it gives crafters less to do. All the housing items this patch are in Pyros, leaving crafters with barely anything to make until they're given more scraps. I get that some carrots are needed but dumping /all/ the carrots into unpopular and /highly/ gated content at the expense of other content is just asking for ire. At least with PVP most of the rewards can be gotten by doing the roulette once a day, which if you're lucky and don't get Secure can end in less than ten-fifteen minutes. And even then it's never been given the lion's share of rewards in any given patch. If you haven't bothered with Eureka till now you have dozens of hours of grinding ahead of you for those items. Hell even if you kept up the grind is still several hours long.

I wasn't a fan of the crafted steps of previous relics, but I'd happily "suffer" my way through that than...the abomination we have now. So I give 110% support to crafters.

Unfortunately Eureka has already been paid for. Even if it were to go away, that's still development time and resources that have been spent and cannot be retroactively redirected towards other aspects of the game.

My only hope is that the devs are aware of Eureka's fleeting nature, so that when it becomes a ghost town (as of or maybe even before 5.0) they have some kind of plans to make it fully soloable and possible to 100% within a week. I'm never taking my alt through it otherwise.

Because nobody can convince me even for a moment that Eureka was designed with longevity in mind. They must have known from the start that it would basically be a limited-time event.
