    Totally agree with the OP here.
    Also Eureka had Bunny Fates

    Critical engagements are way better than notorious monsters, but the content as a whole is still grindy unsatisfying junk and I would have preferred more raids instead.

    There are still enrages and mechanics that will basically wipe you if there aren't enough persons with the right actions alive [like Dispell, Aethershield or Healing Banner at Queen - at least before 5.55 - I don't know how much it got nerfed thanks to medals and the new actions]. But wipe-mechanics don't have anything to do at how I define "fun" in the first place.
    It was expensive as hell costing >50k per run.
    Not really. The required clusters were easy to farm and back then you could easly sell the minion at the end of the run for between 250k-400k [depending on when you did it], giving you back the gil you invested. And who cares about gil in this game anyway? You can probably clear DRS as often as you want and still pay less then on the crafting gear for week 1 savage.

    The rewards was completely garbage since it's all untradeable and only really used for the dye-able judge set. BA had at least decent rewards that fetch a pretty penny if you got lucky.
    As said, the minion sold well, I really like my dyable judge-armor and Cerberus is one of my favorite mounts of all time (especially as a 4-seater).

    You don't need to like DRS. I'm just saying that to me it was one of the best content they added to the game since a long time.

    My first and only hour in Eureka, day 1 of its release, was so miserable and wholly unenticing that I literally haven't attempted it again lmao
    Bozja wins purely because it was actually decent enough to not immediately put me off of even wanting to spend any time doing it

    I don't know, I like both Eureka and Save The Queen areas.

    Uh oh, am I not allowed to like both? D:

    1. Eureka was straight garbage grinding
    2. Not all the zones look great...like 1 or 2
    3. Bozdja is cool with the war theme...Zadnor is super boring

    Kek you should see the abacus numbers to see how low the bar really is.

    That thing is less than 10k right now. Cerberus is a complete joke of a mount. It doesn't even resize depending on race

    None of the multi-seater mounts resize. They have to be static to accommodate the different races.

    If you don't have it, you don't really need it. You can basically go in there with level 1 glamour gear.

    Maybe because "rezising" would look quite absurd with a lalafell on one head and a Roegadyn or a Viera on another...

    Well the Skirmishes are not really like Eureka's NMs. The NMs are more like CEs. The Skirmish equivalent in Eureka is killing trash to trigger a NM spawn.
