why do you get relic upgrade materials from crystal tower?

It is tied to Bozja though as you can't start the new relic quest unless you've completed the previous Bozja quests which means getting to level 10 in there and doing the Castrum.

Castrum AND the new one actually. I don't think the new one is very new player friendly either, but I think people will be running this one for a decent while yet.

I'm just level 8 in Bojza...not really invested in it....well there goes my relic run.

Which is what I really don't get. Why even give people an alternative way to farm their relics outside Bozja when you're forcing them to basically complete the thing anyway? Might as well scrap the CT grind and increase the drop chance inside Eureka 2.0

I think the intention was always that people would complete the Bozja content anyway, and then the grind for subsequent weapons could be done either way.
They haven't been very consistent or effective in the implementation of that though.

well that sucks. Im not really invested in Bozja & only level 8. Got bored with it after the 1st week. Well there goes my next relic step.

I was exactly the same with Eureka, in fact I never bothered with anything after Pagos. But Bozja feels better than Eureka in everyway so far.

The story really picks up at rank 10, and Castrum and Denubrae are effectively new alliance raids.

Imagine how hyped everyone would be if this weekend they announced "6.0 is getting 5 Alliance Raids instead of 3" and yet... no one wants to do the 2 extra ones we've got in Shadowbringers...

More content is nice, but not when it's locked behind boring fate grinding and having to sit around waiting for it to show up every hour only for a chance to possibly get in and do it.

Call me crazy but I don't see what's so fun about doing grindy content just so I can do more grindy content for a weapon that's probably only marginally better than the stuff from Emerald weapon.

I don't necessarily mind grind when it has something engaging to it. Unfortunately recycled FATEs, borrowed power systems and the current tank design make for a rather uninteresting mix.


The 48man sounds interesting enough but slogging through the rest of Bozja to get there does not.

The problem isn't necessarily desire to participate, but ease of access.

Put them where they can end up in the alliance roulette and they'd be far more welcome.
