I mean, if you don't want to then no one's going to force you. I just thought I'd point that out, since not everyone's finished with or even does the savage fights, and also depending on your job and such some augmented Mendacity pieces are better-suited than their savage counterparts, it might still be worth it. But hey, to each their own.

Yeah, I have to agree that Anemos wasn't particularly engaging to me either. Never did get that mount, but after getting my barding and the stuff I needed to upgrade the things I wanted I called it good. Have to wonder what Pagos will offer, though. I know the relic armor upgrade is on hold, but what of the weapons? I guess we can probably expect new loot too. If it turns out to be anything like Anemos though, it's going to be a drag.

I also find it a good thing that they try to change it (but would someone really level through all the old Eureka parts if maybe the last one is good for them?) but I found the reasons a bit funny..especially since I do question how they are even able to tell that..if its because its active right now? But couldnt that mean that people simple use it to cap stones (which is a reward again) or still need an item from it or want to help friends? I am not saying that there are not people out there that just liked it for the content itself but I kinda doubt that most or a huge part has really just done it out of pure fun..

I just got all 4 job chars geared with a combo of eureka, sigma and 360 tomes. The mendacity weekly cap from running the NM train for 3 hrs a week was a blessing even though it was a grind. I am not an avid raider and hate the way people behave in general raids so I avoid them. If they don't continue upgrade availability in created content like Eureka, I won't stay in this game.

I mean we are fine with having x amount of relic steps so having to upgrade your gear too would be fine too imo. I mean people are not forced to upgrade them through that. But I am not sure if we get five stages (even if the elemental names kinda point to it) because that would either mean that we go way further with the 4.x patches or have Eureka even go into the next expansion which would be a bit odd. (Because they would suddenly make it a lvl 80 content or something like that)
