Bozjan story locked behind Extreme-level Rank 10 Castrum critical engagement

[Hakane_Mitsu]

In the trend to make more and more content palatable to hardcore players, casual players are left in the dust and are left out of content like Bozja because the story is increasingly locked behind difficult content like the Castrum critical engagement at Rank 10.

We already know that this critical engagement is difficult and 1. requires enough people to be at rank 10 in the first place to have a good chance of clearing and 2. have difficult enough mechanics that a random pick up group can't easily clear it. I am not against content being hardcore as a casual player as long as they're optional and detached from casual family-friendly content like Eureka or Bozja.

However, what is not talked about right now is that the rank 10 critical engagement unlocks a significant story twist in the Bozja storyline, with 10+ minutes of cutscenes and worldbuilding that will undoubtedly mean that the next tier of Bozja will have a prerequisite of Extreme-level Rank 10 Castrum critical engagement.

This hurts casual players like me who can't do Extreme content and already die repeatedly to the Red Comet, because it is unlikely that I will ever clear this content, and what's worse, I'll never be able to unlock the next tier of Bozja because I cannot complete the storyline. Please give players an option to receive 50% Echo to complete the engagement with the understanding that they will forgo the Bozjan coins. I think this is a good compromise for older gamers like me.

I'm sorry but I found this hilarous, I cleared lastnight with 31 randoms and it was a bit tricky but I would NOT put this on the same level as Savage / Extreme.

All you're doing is a broad selection of fates to rank up to even enter Castrum.

Two words;
