    There is no reason 5.0 Eureka can't have its own weapon & gear similar to PotD, except more upgradeable ( like it is now )!

    No one would do Eureka for a piece of junk weapon that's not even higher level than the current Ex primal. Imagine coming out of four stages of Eureka with something less than max ilvl.

    The way some people talk it up like sliced bread, im sure they would if still had the same kind of rewards it has now. ( Mounts, Glamour, Hair, Furniture )

    There is no reason we can't have more horizontal progression and choices. You don't even need to do the weapon to complete Eureka ( and I know people who have done just that ). The weapon has no story attached at all in Eureka and isn't even a requirment ). It is purely an afterthought because they needed to toss the relic into something.

    So again. There is no reason there can't be a good weapon in raid, a good tome weapon, a good relic weapon, and a good eureka weapon. Not everything needs to be BiS. People just want another option to progress their character. No one should be against this thread or having /more/ content ( I understand believing it to be implausible but thats it ). I don't understand the people aruging against this. OP isn't demanding they delete eureka. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    There's no horizontal progression in this game, and adding another weapon would not be enough to change that as long as content is the same.

    Yes, the reason is that having several weapons based on the same concept means that one will be useless. And you forgot the Primal weapon.
    On the other hand, if they do that, can you give me a reason why they shouldn't offer more option for just every other high level weapon ? Primal, Raid, Craft, etc...

    Well, since you literally ask for a weapon that reuses old content, you're not advocating for more content.

    Y: I usually compare FFXIV with a theme park, but the Forbidden Land of Eureka won’t be a place where everyone would want to go. For example, there are people who don’t want to go to horror houses because they don’t see the point in getting scared on purpose. For example, on a date, the boyfriend might want to invite the girlfriend to go the horror house, but the girlfriend just doesn’t seem to find it fun. In other words, it’s not like everyone wants to go to the horror house, but there are people who just love the adrenalin rush they get from it. Think of Eureka as something like that.

    I'm not against more content, I'm against irrelevant gear. (The reason I personally don't like the concept behind uncapped tome gear, but that's another topic)

    Let me reiterate my question : If you're so concerned about lack of options, why shouldn't they do the same thing for every other high level weapon ?

    You know... Except for people who are claiming that they like Eureka and prefer it over farming Primals/Tomestones/Raids?

    Eureka can easily give a unique set of max item level gear. That starts off as your crummy max level quest stuff, but then upgrades to equal to current tier stuff with each stage of Eureka. Just farmed in an alternate way (I.e. FATE Trains instead of Dungeon/Raid Farms)

    This could include, ALL item slots. Weapon, Armour, Accessories (Including 2! Rings wow! OP OP!)

    Potentially with having max level content like BA even allowing for upgrades to Savage ilevel gear (Though, only if BA was made less toxic...)

    That way, it would truly be a place for people who like the content having a way to farm out full sets of gear doing what they prefer to farm. Potentially even having more actually tangible benefits from using said gear within Eureka content.

    Unless of course, no-one actually likes Eureka or its content and only cares about it because shiny Relic is the reward >.>

    So correct Kalise!

    I know I go into eureka just to cap myself! Its so much easier.

    But like OP has stated that doesn't mean we don't miss the 2.0/3.0 weapon quest lines and story. I understand its not for everyone but a lot of us want something similar back.

    Eureka has so many AMAZING rewards and no one even wants to take away them away. We just want another option outside Eureka.
