Is There a Way to Make Eureka [b]Not[/b] Suck?

[True-to-Caesar]

Yes, because that's how the real badass hardcore gamers did it back in the day, and not the modern weak pansy gammons.

These same «*hardcore*» players are now older with families, back then people had more time on their hands. Now not so much, you can make difficult content without it being annoying or cheap as hell.

And I’m sorry but Bozja/Eureka are mindless mob and fate farm, there’s nothing difficult about it. It’s just a matter of being cautious and not pulling too many mobs. If you call that difficulty, I can’t imagine what you’ll say about actual difficult games with a long learning curve.

I definitely don't have the drive that I did back then, that's for sure. I'm too "old" for that crap now. The memories I made are good enough for me.

I do get things done, but after I get it done there is another thing I want to do and it is gated behind content I find dull.

Just how is man. Every player encounters this at some point. Gotta measure the worth of what you want to get

I find it dull to do pvp to farm for the glam but I do it anyway, you can't love evert part of the MMO and maybe the content just don't cater to your type of gameplay. It don't mean it should be changed too.

...This line of argument seems pretty unproductive, especially before having any idea what that "catering" would even look like (or, more importantly, whether parts of it wouldn't be an improvement for some 99% of Eureka-goers).

[Kaurhz]

Uh, the only thing I would change is a reduction in the cooldown timer for when FATEs are next available, 120 minutes in my personal opinion is too much. Equally, I would look at the requirements to spawn these.

It's not bad once you've gone through the level cap, got your logograms, and Kirin / Elemental gear, but it certainly isn't new player friendly at certain times of the patch/expansion which is an issue.

While we agree it would be okay if people could sync and do content with different levels, we don't want to remove the punishing mechanic like xp lose on death and the grind for xp. Simply put, some people love this kind of challenge and it dosen't really exist anywhere else in the game.

The rest of the game don't apply those rules. It just pure entitlement when people come and complain for change on the single kind of content that cater to people who like that type of experience.

Don't love that type of content? To bad, other people does and they can have their cakes too.

[Neoyoshi]

They'll probably do something in the future to make the content even more bearable; probably even solo'able eventually.

My only worry about people who find Eureka problematic this early on; is that they haven't even made it to the truly troubling Eureka content yet.

Hang in there!

It's not like I'm asking them to rebuild it from the ground up or anything, just add something more than "kill X number of mobs, do FATE, rinse, repeat" for hours on end.

Also, there have been calls for an overhaul for as long as that content has existed. I'm not the first to complain about it nor am I going to be the last.

I'm also trying to get all the cards and when I found out I had to do Eureka I audibly groaned.
