Please no more Eureka!

[Leanna]

And you know running alexander savage 100 times to get the light stage done doesnt give much variety either.

No one points a gun at your head and tells you "Go do Savage ONLY!" That it is fast doesn't mean it is the only way. I did the DRK relic recently, I only wanted the Sharpened Guillotine but I did up until Lux because why not? And I did Cronus while doing dungeons for BLU skills for some friends.

That was recently, back then I did Savage for MNK and SCH because I wanted them asap, but for the MCH relic I did other stuff because I didn't want to rush it.

You know, because one option is faster doesn't mean it is the only, and that depends of what people wants to do and how. More options is never bad, reduce everything to one option is.

But nobody is telling you to go grind for dragons either. Even if you do daily something, you'll progress your relic and also get some tomestones (which should cover your time doing daily roulettes)

Im not saying Eureka is perfect, if you read my initial post, you'll see that I also agree, Eureka needs more improvements. Yet again, Eureka-like content can be fun - if done right.

And yes, I agree relic shouldnt be inside next Eureka. It would be more fun having multiple choices to get tokens, tomes, materials through multiple ways - including maybe Eureka but not entirely gating.

The only thing I can imagine is, that Eureka was a good step forward. A step away from Diadem and I do hope the Dev Team truly learned how to handle such content and will handle in future. Sometimes even Devs need to gather experience. And I do think its wrong to tell them to stop trying new things.

Trying to reason with someone who didn't complete the content and is insisting on doing it the worst way possible won't get you anywhere.

Yes, it is and that's what Yoshi P said yesterday in his message in BA thread.

This is FFXIV Producer and Director Yoshida again.
As Nakagawa has stated above, as a content, Eureka has been a challenge for the FFXIV team, following on from the Diadem.

FFXIV’s base gameplay is very important to us, and in order to have as many players as possible enjoy themselves, we take care not to introduce unnecessary stress to content. On the other hand, we also believe there is payoff to be had, a sense of accomplishment, at the end of sustained effort and heightened tension. This is a good kind of stress, and it’s the driving concept behind content such the Diadem and Eureka, which aim to break outside the FFXIV box.

As a result, there may be situations like Hydatos, where feedback diverges greatly depending on region, and issues arise that are beyond our anticipation. But we’ll learn from this and strive to continue delivering new ways to play.

With the 5.x series of patches, we’ll be trying something new again, but in the meantime, we’ll continue making adjustments not only to Hydatos, but to Eureka at large. Thank you for continued support.

If they're planning on making adjustments to the entire zones, I hope they add the logos system to them.

And i hope they lift the ilvl sync from 300 to 400 at 5.0.
And maybe even introduce grp-lvl-sync.

Some way of group level sync would be very welcome, esp. when you want to help out friends who are lower level. This was asked at the Fan Fest Paris and while it's to late to implement in Eureka I'm sure the dev's have got the message.

That right there is something I've been longing for for a while. It will easily solve a lot of issues, such as helping friends level up quick and trying to farm certain mobs when you're at a higher level (which would be essential when level sync is removed and you go back to Pyros at 60 for example to get heat boxes).

One of the most dissapointing Facts. Meeting new people who would like to do this: Whats your Level in Eureka? 22. Oh... okay nvm.
