Please, dont bring Bojza back!

Is that true? I don't think they're linked to the story quests. You can just get the timeworn whatevers from PotD.

I loved both of them and hope we have more zones like it.

Everything you said in the original post is opinion, but stated as if it were a fact. That doesn't just make it true.
Both functioned well for their designed purpose, and plenty of people enjoyed them.

The steps are locked behind the Bozja storyline yes, you need to beat Castrum and Delibrum or you cannot progress past the first glowing weapon.

Except this is not true - Eurkea was the only way to get your relic weapon in SB, and you had to progress through Bozja for the same in ShB. So, yes, you were forced.

Nobody is forced to get relics. Take responsibility for what you choose to do in a game.

I loved Eureka. Almost wish there was a way to reset progress or at least let it level your job like Bozja does.

Bozja is the undisputed king of the “alliance raids put me to sleep but I don’t feel like actually committing time right now to extreme and up” content

I don’t think people really give Bozja enough credit for just how many high quality fights there are in it
-40 CE’s
-3 raids each with 4 bosses
-DRS

There is just so many alliance raid/normal raid quality bosses in Bozja and it is a perfect niche for that content I mentioned above

It's not a poor argument, it was the content, the content was not Eureka or Bozja. The content was separate from field operations and something people liked.
I fail to see how you think this is an actual gotcha unless you're being incredibly disingenuous. The relics were content before field operations and were pulled into them. The people who liked the old style of relics don't necessarily have to like the new method when it's an entirely different form of content.

I don’t think it’s a gotcha? Just pointing out that ARR and HW were just as tedious and unlikable and had just as many weird grinds.

And as for fans of ARR and HW relic content. A lot of the old relic dna is baked into the blueprint for Eureka and Bozja.

[TaleraRistain]

We already knew field content was coming. If they can make it something besides endless FATE farms and make sure it's evergreen in some manner (some sort of connected roulette or changing rewards would probably work) then it should be a better experience.

And yeah, don't gate relics behind it. Let the content succeed or fail on its own merits.

[Rein_eon_Osborne]

Lmao modern ARR & HW relic grind =/= on patch ARR & HW relic grind.

[MeanDragon]

Now I can run Eureka and Bozja to get tomes for EW relics! Oh maybe the new one will drop tomes too! That's like double the relics! This is exciting times for a relic hunter.

Dear Square Enix, please bring Bozja back. Please give me future excuses to not interact with a stupid annoying cat you forced upon the MSQ.
