What makes a good relic storyline / step

[Avatre]

That was one of the big issues. I got my weapon for one job casually over a few 3-hour sessions of each Eureka area as they released. It was like 3 hours a week. That's it! But the people who got all the weapons for all the jobs were like "this is too much or too grindy" and said it was miserable waiting for NMs, yet if they just did 1 there wouldn't have been these issues.

Shadowbringers did try to address this problem by having some steps that are one-offs and then you don't need to do them for your other relics. It also gave people the option to spam old raids, which some people prefer, whereas I prefer to do the new/exploratory content, so I did it all inside Bozja and Zadnor. I didn't do CT or Omega or anything like that.

(don't know why people preferred CT so much, it's like a love-hate relationship, they complain about hating CT but when given the choice of that or Bozja they do CT).

The part of the Eureka weapons I hated most was the people who sat there doing nothing when you were working to spawn NMs, just to zerg it and then go sit and do nothing waiting for the next. That, and Pagos, were probably some of the most annoying parts of the entire process. And I was someone who was doing all of them, ended up with SAM needing BA only, WHM needing Hydatos+BA, and everything else was just starting Pyros. And that's where they've all sat since I finished Pagos partially due to it being boring going in there alone, and there barely ever being anyone else in the instances.

That was also an issue. The people who were just doing one didn't like it if they were casual players either, for some reason, because their 2 hours of play was consumed by waiting for NMs.

Some people like myself are perfectly alright with that though. I think I did Pagos after it had only had one nerf (it got many more after that), but people were still saying it wasn't good, but I had no problems at all and even solo-spawned some NMs in Pagos.
