    Personally I found Anemos to be the most tedious zone for few reasons:
    1. It's not a flat plain like Hydatos. (Although not as bad as Pagos, definitely)
    2. The first zone to be explored, which means newbies tend to not know what to expect. I was one of those folks who got discouraged hard that I stepped out of Eureka for at least half a year before going back in to try again.
    3. Besides to grind dyeable artifact gear and relic weapons, the zone is very 'one and done'. There are very little to nothing that keeps the veterans incentivized to keep going back unlike 3 other zones (Which is why some people think Eureka is dead when they first zoned in).
    4. No Logos Actions.

    Pagos is... alright imho (except kettle farming). Dragons' positions are all static, they never change. Sure they are annoying at first when they killed you (general you) unexpectedly but, literally the only thing people need to do is to just.... walk... or turn to full defensive magia then scramble past them with full speed lol.

    1. so...?
    2. The same apply to each zone and if anything Anemos is the less dangerous ones, there no thing such as dragon that require you to rp walk.
    3. you forgot the various chest reward, Including mounts and glams?

    Seriously I swear People love to exagerate Eureka issues and scare people away, then complain no one want to do the content with them.

    1. Flat plain zones means you don’t need to take detours to avoid certain obstacles to reach XYZ locations.
    2. After being exposed to the bs that Anemos threw, I had more or less developed that ‘preparedness’ thinking “I know SE gonna put something to make me pull my hairs off lol.” so I was less surprised by the time I reached Pagos. It was also the place where I learned mobs have different types of aggros which also mostly applies in Pagos.
    3. Can you trade/MB them? The only outlier to this was the T-Rex mount and that’s it—it also appeared in one of the past mogtome event. Everything else can be bought via MB. If people who find the content’s annoying realizes there’s a workaround, they will attempt that.

    1. God forbid you waste 45 more second to reach next fate in worst case. It not like it had some big mountain that blocked your path and turned the thing into a mess (Like Yanxia before you unlock flying.)
    2. Anemos has no bs to threw at you. You don't even need to mind mobs agros and you can alway sprint away from mobs if you agro to many or even just dodge high level mobs with mount. The bs start on the following zones and onward.
    3. You can trade most of the thing, but if you rather spend 100K gil and + on each glams instead of doing like, 5 FATE, you do you.

    1. I'm not saying they should do away the obstacles. I'm just stating how Anemos felt off putting to me personally on my original post and those are one of them.
    2. YMMV. At the time I entered Anemos for the first time, I had very minimal understanding about the mobs aggro. How they aggro, is it sight? is it sound? is it magic? is it low health? is it level related? If so, how much is the diff? Can I just outrun them while taking 1-2 hits while still surviving? (hello, traversing Pazuzu cave as a lv19) When none of these details really matters outside Eureka, having all these suddenly been thrown at once was the 'bs' that crushed me back then. Half a year later when I came back more prepared, they weren't all that bad after all. By the time Pagos came to light nothing seems so surprising anymore because "infuriates you" feels like the general vibe of the content, in overall sense. In fact, thanks to Anemos, all 3 later zones feels nothing like 'bs' anymore. It's nothing that you haven't seen before.
    3. I'm not sure what glam piece that will costs you 100k per piece outside the field dressing because everything else have been crashing hard, pretty much down to 50k or as low as 1g per piece, which is just a drip in the downpour of gil the game offers you daily. Is this a DC specific thing?
