Eureka vs. Hildibrand

[Joe777]

What will you check out first after the maintenance? I'm gonna check out Eureka myself.

My retainers. Not overly excited for this patch ngl. I'm behind on Hidly and Eureka looks too needlessly complicated and feels overdue :| patch notes will be interesting to read once they're up, I guess

Eureka, I'd rather do hildy slowly with no rush, with Eureka there will always be that rush feeling of not falling behind on relic grind.

[Theodric]

Eureka.

I'm in no rush to tackle Hildibrand. It's highly unlikely to add any new trials and the 'jokes' will likely be the same repetitive story beats we've seen in the quest chain so far. Not that that stop'll a very vocal portion of the community from claiming it is the best thing ever.

I liked it the first time around, though it's clear by now that we're missing out on different flavours of side quests just to keep it going.

I haven't did hildy since ARR and that's becasue he had a trial attacted to his questline, not very interested in his quests much. So, Euerka for me.

Seeing I have barely even started Hildibrand...

Regardless, Eureka is in many ways the make or break point of Stormblood. My curiosity on it is far higher.

Neither really. I'm honestly hoping for some job buffs, not really a fan of Hildibrand (kinda repetitive and pointless filler), but I "might" try Eureka but I was never fond of the "relics" in this game compared to FFXI. I feel Eureka will end up being Diadem 3.0, I hope it won't, but I'm not overly excited about this patch.

Depends on where my burnt out mind takes me. Probably Hildabrand for the comedy. I've missed his quests...

[Destati]

Eureka. If you get the dyeable AF3 gear from this I'd like to work on obtaining it already. I haven't touched the Hildibrand quests yet simply because I want to wait for the whole thing to be released so I can binge it.

Funny you should say that because FFXI things are supposed to be involved with Eureka. There were no PvE job changes in the patch notes though, just PvP.
