Castrum Lacus Litore declining participation

[ItMe]

I’m lvl 80 and rank 15 and would do bozja a lot more if people did Castrum. Grinding fates & CEs gets boring quickly, and so it’s nice to have a fun raid in the mix. But since bozja is too monotonous with castrum dead, I can’t bother with it until patch 5.45. I was hoping I wouldnt have to wait that long for them to fix castrum but it is what it is.

I totally feel that.
The other thing really holding me back from really going at it in Bozja (if I could go on a tangent quick) is the droprate on Indigo Star is too high.
Whenever I get a lockbox, instead of being excited at the chance of getting something cool, I just feel tired by the seemingly 60% chance to get another Indigo Star.
Actually, I've completely stopped opening them in the vague hopes they'll tweak the drops sometime later. It's not like SQEX determines what's inside them when you get them lol, so I'm just kinda stockpiling them for now.



Edit: That stuff I said about the T-Rex Mound and Red Mage Barding being patched into old Eureka lockboxes was incorrect and has been removed.

Actually, I've completely stopped opening them. At the end of Stormblood they patched in the T-rex mount and Red Mage Barding into Eureka's version of lock boxes. I expect they'll change the drop rates and add new prizes as Shadow Bringers winds down so I'm waiting to open mine. It's not like SQEX determines what's inside them when you get them lol.

YES! That STUPID Indigo star, all I get, LITERALLY. It's incredibly annoying. I know they have other things in there, other than umbrellas, but STILL all I get is INDIGO STAR! I am level 15, done HUNDREDS of FATES/CE I have NEVER once got the mount out of a lockbox - I had to buy it. They have chocobo barding in it, I have barely ever gotten any of those. Hundreds upon hundreds of indigo star. Yeah, I know some people have gotten a few mounts, but God, like I can't be the only one who gets indigo star over and over and over... at this rate.

T-rex mount and red mage barding were always in the anemos lockboxes from the beginning. The only change they ever made to lock box drops is making the anemos glamour gear sellable on the market board. I've been hoarding a stack of 999 of those for a long time now on the off chance they ever change anything, but so far they haven't. I wouldn't expect them to at this point. ( I am still holding them though!)
