Instance Jumping in Eureka

[EorzeaHero69]

I have seen a lot of people leave the instance after Pazuzu is killed in their current one and try to find a new instance that may not have killed him yet or is close to spawning and when gale weather comes soon. Some do it for the Altar housing item, and some to complete all the relics. My party and I have done it several times, but I mostly do it so I can get sufficient pazuzu feathers ahead of time in case Eureka does die out before 4.3ish. After that I still plan on doing fates to collect enough Anemos Crystals and exchange em for Protean for Relic Gear.

What is your opinion about people instance jumping in Eureka?

They are literally wasting of their own time.

All instances share the same weather conditions, so chances are high that if he's popped in one, he's popped in them all. And even if he hasn't, you still have to kill ghosts and wait for gales which can take anywhere upwards towards 3 hours or more on some occasions. Sometimes it's better to just stay in your current instance and wait for the next respawn. You can get lucky with another instance but it's highly unlikely.

My opinion is it doesn't always work as I've ended up back in the same instance. Also if you end up in relatively new instances the wait times can be similar. As to whether you should do it? I have no problem if people want to do that. In some ways it might be helpful while there is still a lot of activity as lower level players will have better chance to group and gain exp killing mobs to trigger NM's.

I find the constant shouting "Is Pazuzu up in this instance?" to be irritating.

Right, but I have seen another Pazuzu spawn in another instance 3 minutes after killing him from last instance. It was mostly luck. The only times I stop doing it is when I hit a fresh instance, when I hit an old one but someone confirms that Pazuzu hasn't spawned yet, when gales will happen when I have at least 35+ minutes left in the instance I'm currently in, or when I need a breather from Eureka.

Yeah, and that may be but previously, very few people were even level 19/20. Now that we have a bunch in bulk, more often than not, he's usually killed in all instances when he's been spawned in one. At least that's how I have witnessed it from personal observations.

The problem is the instance timer. People are not going to stay in an instance if Pazuzu is their priority if the next gales is in 1hr+ and their timer is lower than that. There's no point since they will just get kicked before it spawns. Might as well leave and find another instance with a fresh timer and possibly open window so you can do something like NM train while waiting for the placeholders to spawn.

I've seen Pazuzu typed in chat so many times now the word has lost all meaning.

For sure they are because all instances share the same weather pattern so odds are if you just finished killing Pazuzu in your instance the other instances have already done the same.
