The Ultimog Challenge is get 8000 points in ocean fishing

Bro why is crystal tower in this at all.
Stop giving people more reasons to run that place, man. MSQ requires it. Bozja requires it (edit: for the relic step; you have to run it over a dozen times per wep). It's the lowest common denominator so it's all anyone ever gets in roulettes. You could've made the moogle require ... idk, Ivalice or Void Ark or something, and people would actually be going out there doing these raids that barely anyone does anymore. I was looking forward to this aspect of it. The rewards were a nothingburger for me, since I already own most of that and don't want the rest. For me, this event is cool because it pushes people to do fun things they wouldn't normally bother with. Well, now you ensured that people are gonna be "pushed" to do the worst, most overrun alliance raid in the game. {Nice job!}

Hell, one of the raid challenges is E1N, like bruh. Next time can you just open a poll or something to ask people what they wanna grind during a content drought, or maybe use engagement metrics to see what old content people enjoyed but aren't doing a lot anymore because it's old, and then just make that the thing. E1N is like the most boring raid in the entire Eden series. Nothing happens for a majority of the fight. it's basically a striking dummy.

i dont know what we are talking about, but you all reminded me that i still cant win that shark mount no matter what "guide" i follow or who i take... shame on you all for making me relive that trauma..

Because lower level people exist? There was one of these recently that was really top heavy and kind of screwed anyone lower level so it's good to see them putting lower level choices back in.

And Bozja doesn't require it. It's a method for the relic updates. Bozja requires Ivalice to unlock.

I was mostly planning on skipping out on this since there's nothing interesting, but have they mentioned if the second half is going to use the same mog tomes? If that were the case, it might be worth banking some now for the reward pool swap.

If it makes you feel any better(or worse), I was in the same boat until one day I got it entirely by accident just fishing up random crap.

Then they should just put in both kinds of content. Heck, look at the dungeons on display; it's all ARR stuff anyway. If you want to do something fun when it's synced, this event ain't it. There's gotta be a compromise somewhere here. Maybe they could simply include both CT and higher leveled content, crazy idea for SE though. Always one extreme or another.

Also bozja has a relic stage where you're asked to run CT 15 times iirc, step was awful. That's what I was referring to. Every weapon you get will put you back into that nightmare step of running crystal tower 15 times, whereas bozja only requires you to run ivalice once for the unlock, and then again for a one-time relic step that is never repeated.

You're not required to do CT for that step. You can get Loathsome Memories of the Dying from doing that x15, Castrum Lacus Litore x3, or an unknown amount of Critical Engagements in Bozjan Southern Front (random drop chance).

heck yeah, gratz on yours! i just need to show more persistence, i guess its a good time if its part of the event

The second part will use different tomestones:

This time, the event will be split into two parts across the Patch 6.5x series, each with different tomestones to collect and its own unique assortment of rewards to earn.

Yeah but think about those other options. They all involve going into a place that's basically dead, and then hoping you get together enough people to run a rare spawn of a rarely done raid 5 times.
Or you can just do CT.
Which do you HONESTLY think most people will default to as the bozja content gets older?

Either way, the main point is CT has incentives to be ran already. Other alliance raids, not nearly as much. Why they'd give people another reason to go and do CT is beyond me, but w/e, tired of arguing the nitty gritty minor details of that post while people ignore the main focus of it.

They know, they just worded it weirdly I was going to say the same but after rereading it 4 odd times they are excluding Bozja's methods on purpose.
