    Will Eureka last?

    Here we are less than a week in, and we have a lot of lvl 20's already (heck, I was rolled back from 10 to 8, and still might make 20 before they restore my xp - I'm half way to 19 as it is).

    Once we get 20, and get relic armor set or two, will it die? I was hoping it'd take a lot longer to get to max and grind this out

    It might. Repeatability is not a thing this piece of content has. It's going to require the continuous influx of new players to it to keep the lower level accessible for returning players. Usually the relic grind incentivizes (heavily) the completion of technically outdated content to keep that content populated for new players. Eureka doesn't have a mechanism for that and it is a glaring weakness in the design.

    Basically never mind a few weeks from now, what happens a few months from now? A year from now? This is not content designed for the long term.

    It's 4.0 Anima weapon grind so it'll last through the 4.0 cycle

    If they play it right and use Eureka as a platform to build on and integrate high and low level play instead of tacking things onto the side, I think so.

    Unfortunately, I don't know if I trust the devs enough to do this and can see future updates being Eureka 2 and abandoning the current ones, for all intents and purposes.

    They should do the same than the upgrade token from the 24-man raid.
    The current steps require Anemos Crystal.
    The next steps will require new Anemos Items and Items from the next Eureka
    The steps after, etc...

    It's not that hard to create stronger monsters in an existing zone.

    I'll wager that one content patch from now will severely damage Eureka participation. Two and it will effectively be dead.

    Why? Because most will have what they want. Any new content they add will undoubtedly favor higher levels and higher level players will not be interested in leveling low level players.

    Unless they force more relic pieces/items into Eureka. Then it will be another boom of dissatisfied players complaining because they have to do it.

    Depends what they do in the next step of relic. They could very easily make the next step still require anemos crystals, pazuzu feathers, etc.

    Depends on how frequently they update the content and how those updates look.
