Not yet it isnt. Helped a friend get theirs done one short session when they got back from work, probably 3 hours in total while i was working on my 3rd one. The grind for the relic upgrade is easily done in a day. Also, you can do the FATEs on any job(including BLU) before you have to do the measly 6 dungeon runs. Do Antitower or Sohm Al hard, that can be done in an hour tops.

So... Yesterday made until Castrum's last boss, but we failed the timer, due to 4 wipes... In the end, I actually lost around 20k mettle overall by my own deaths and the wipes around the instance. I know, I know... But was my 1st run, still learning all of the mechanics.

Said that... My Rank is 11. Would be wiser to wait until rank 15 to try again, so the mettle losses wouldn't matter?

I think there's been about five incidents now where Castrum decided to pop right after most of the instance queued into a different CE.

There seriously needs to be an extension on how much time you're permitted to register, because one minute is absurdly short compared to how much time you get to prepare for the Balsesion Arsenal.

This always happens from what I've seen.
CE's seem to spawn in certain intervals, which almost always end up lining up with the Castrum pop.

Castrum always triggers after exactly 1 hour into an instance. The countdown starts at 180 minutes, so Castrum will trigger at 120m left on the timer.
Don't register for any CE's after about 128m. And if it's Choctober, just forget it. That always seems to pop around 130-125 and you will definitely not have enough time to do both.

I honestly believe the best way to compensate for Castrum high risk with mettle loss is to atleast provide Mettle rewards for each boss defeated to cover any Mettle loss during fights.

That or remove the Mettle loss from Castrum.

That way people maybe more willing to join Castrum more often since they don't have to risk their Mettle too much.

[Starkbeaumont]

they really need to do something about Castrum. it's required to finish the story part, so I should at least be able to do it. So far all I joined were ended cause not even 3 parties where present cause of people signed up for another CE. and apparently it's not even that easy So I don't expect to clear it first try

I actually enjoy Bozja. It's great move to combine 71-80 leveling, and Eureka like design for relics and such.

Aside from sharing the sentiment on Castrum, I feel that Bozja clusters should drop from Fates and battlefields too. After a time, cluster farming parties will be less and less as I've been finding.

You can't lose rank, but lose more the higher rank you are. I'm thinking it's probably best to do Castrum asap after hitting 10.

You don't lose rank but your mettle can go all the way to zero. Anyway, IMO you don't lose that much mettle that a few CE won't fix, something that I find myself doing from time to time to keep my mettle at max.

I actually did rank all the way to 15 before properly farm Castrum and honestly, at this point I think was not a smart move because I skipped successful Castrum runs.
