    My stance on Eureka now is the same as it was in Stormblood. Until Eureka mobs/mechanics are nerfed to the point where I can solo my way through the story and get my relic appearances at what I consider a reasonable pace, then I have no reason to enter Eureka. I found Eureka detestable when it was first released, and it's still just as detestable to me today. The mobs are huge damage sponges, there's still that crappy elemental leveling, and it's ultimately still as unfun now to me as it was back in Stormblood. Basically Eureka would have to be nerfed to the point where I'd able to two or three shot the general mobs in the zones, and be able to solo the fates, before I'd even consider setting foot back into it. Otherwise, it's too much of a slog with mechanics I don't find fun. The same goes for Bozja.

    I can only hope that Endwalker's relic acquisition is nothing like Stormblood and Shadowbringers so I can actually get relic weapons again. I liked how I acquired relics in Heavensward the best. ARR's relic acquisition would have been great if not for the books stage requiring so many books to do. But Stormblood's relic was a big nope after I saw how Anemos played out, and Shadowbringers was a big nope after I got to the point where I couldn't go further in the relic progression without doing Bozja itself. I don't like these alternative leveling and extra action systems. I don't like massive damage sponge enemies. I wouldn't have complained about Eureka or Bozja if there were alternative methods to progress the relics outside of that content, but since there wasn't, relics were basically removed as content for me in those expansions.
