Trying to run Pilgrim Traverse now as a fresh arrival is not fun

I see why now, SE in their infinite wisdom made the only worthwhile stuff farmed from floor 99 boss. Zero reason for people to run the other floors aside from kinda mid looking glamours that you can find on market for like 5000 gil.

It makes a lot of sense why floor 1 - 30 aren't being ran publicly.

That's not so at all. The rainbow leaf mount and Triple Triad card can only be obtained from 1-30 hoard sacks. The best place to get illumined aetherpool glass is from 51-70. Wind-up Feo Ul only comes from hoard sacks in 31-70. The main reason to go through 71+ is to clear it; the 99 boss drops jack and squat. Clearing gives you a tome that enough of can get you some neat jewelry and achievements eventually if you do it enough, but no one is out there grinding the 99 boss for anything.

They actually did a pretty good job making sure all the floor sets were worth going through for different reasons. Of course, that doesn't mean people are doing so with Duty Finder. Your best bet, if you don't want to solo it (the floor 10 boss is a butt without aetherpool--it's not the boss, it's the adds that murder you) is to set up a party finder. Say you want to go through 1-30 for the challenge log. Or try 1-30 for the story, you'll get some people happy to help.

1-30 give the mount, unlike the other deep dungeons that have the mount drops on 71+

running the lower floors is actually worth more than ever before

also the valuable shards dont drop past 70 and 70+ gives no gear upgrades anymore
71-99 are the worst floors to run in any aspect now
