Bozja feedback thread

[Crushnight]

Plenty to go over but I've only just got to Resistance rank 10 and yet to do Castrum so more be added later but I do wanna give positives and negatives of what I have found after 7 hours of being in there.

Positives:
-the collection log on bios, I cannot overstate how happy I am to see this, duplicates being traded in for more lockboxes prevents them being cumbersome, I hope we get more of this type of thing going forward perhaps even one for monsters :3
-engagements are varied, in they are just different variety of fates but it beats Eureka kill mobs to get boss only strategy any day.
-engagements have teeth to them they aren't just zerg all the time and glad to see scaling working fine.
-the resistance rank is relatively easy to get up and lovely having quest give enough of a boost so if a death/wipe happens you don't go below the rank threshold

Negatives:
-1 person in cutscene means no going to engagements for the other members of party, I feel the person doing story is already having to decide what they pick and it shouldn't impact others going for these.
-Still haven't learned from Pagos, lv9 quest takes you near hostile wind sprites that are rank 5 that can immediately aggro once exit cutscene, fix this please just teleport the player to nearest camp.
-lv10 quest requires enough people in instance to do Castrum, are you banking on this being super long running forever or you planning on adjusting once no longer relevant some clarity on this would be appreciated.


Those are my current thoughts I'll have more after running Castrum and getting max rank(no idea how high but it is higher than 10).

Not nessasarly. I'm also at rank 10 and if I saw an opportunity to do part of the quest and went for it. Not once did anyone get mad, and I didn't care if they went to an engagement without me, I can do another one later.

If you're in Bozja solely for the relic weapon, go to heavensward's zones instead. Memories are 100% drop rate from gold ranked FATEs.
I find it super silly and a really weird way from SE to promote their new content.

I just want to be able to do it from 70.

It's a FATE grind.

I like how they seemed to learn from Eureka. It's not perfect, but the zone design is really good, the music is catchy and progression is fast. AND WE CAN RIDE MOUNTS RIGHT AWAY.

Just another painfully small improvement over the previous tries of open-ish-area content.

The mix of open-area and "instanced-like" battles with auto-group (like a small duty finder) is nice.
Aside that, it's just another fate grind with oh-the-clever-one-shot-attacks-its-so-difficuuuuuult

Haven't had a chance to play it yet (saw it/read about it) but it seems like a number of improvements over the other system which is nice. I didn't like the slow speed of old Eurkea (particularly before the nerfs, nerfs made it a lot faster) but even then there were a number of people who did like that content, this one appears to be a bit faster and a bit more forgiving while still having a bit of that old Eureka vibe. The issue some people have about faster progression on relic outside of the content hopefully doesn't lead to a big nerf outside, just a bit of a buff inside instead as a response (so inside can progress two contents at once vs only one, and doesn't feel super silly to do so, yet doing stuff outside doesn't become feeling like cheap alms for those who didn't want to do Eureka 2.0).

Wonder if they could play with gliding or something in the next rendition of said content, I feel like it might be a nice medium for old school hard area + the modern freedom of mobility (rather than pure flying which is obviously both very freeing and fast, sometimes quite pretty, but also makes an area really easy to "conquer").

This I got a few classes to 70 to lvl here and now I have to grind out one more lvl. I know not too bad but still a dang inconvenience

I hate whoever thought the female midlander bard with the awful voice that spam lb3 was a good idea.
