Bozja is extremely disappointing (especially the 5.45 update)

I mean the relic is tied to bozja. The series is called save the queen. The resistance is the whole reason for making them so it'd be weird to not help them on the battle field

They could have tied the new step to fate grinding and CE's in Bozja and then made the next step for the i530 relic require mats from Castrum and Delubrum instead of the current system where it's clear once and forget it ever existed.

At least then getting people to clear the alliance raids wouldn't be so far fetched compared to now where people who want nothing to do with any of the instances are forced to catch up or abandon their relics altogether

I think the worst part about Castrum is actually getting enough people together to do it and the rewards being very subpar. The entire raid itself is fun and its cool trying to coordinate with many groups. I think Delubrum Reginae is also very fun fights-wise, but once again marred by poor choices (no role queue, doesn't refill spots of dropouts, another mettle sink). I think I would describe Bozja on the whole as "a good idea ruined by many strange decisions", such as not being able to reliably upgrade the relic through the new system, Castrum being awkward to fill, the coin solution causing the same problem in the other direction, needing an ungodly amount of coins to augment the Castrum gear or praying that you luck out with the abysmally small drop chance, etc.

Also, I don't get the point of Bozjan Silver Coins either. All I can see that they can be used for is trading in 100 for 1 Bozjan Gold Coin to actually buy the new stuff. That seems like a waste of a resource to get from a raid that is already challenging enough.

I agree! I've not done Delubrum Reginae yet but I've heard the actual fights are fun, and I enjoyed the Castrum raid a lot! Except for all the losing mettle... and losing more mettle... and yeah, very few rewards to make up for the 10k mettle I lost. When they changed it so you could get the coins from fates I just ground out those to get what I wanted for glams :P There is a lot going for Bozja imo but it has so many wonky things detracting from the overall experience.
