    Possible to skip Eureka/Pagos?

    And get the required ilvl equipment through other means? Can I for example just buy equip on the market so that I never have to set foot in there or is that not recommended?

    Someone can correct me if I'm wrong but if you're trying to raid I think pentameld crafted gear is good enough for the first few floors?

    If you aren't trying to raid then again, crafted gear is fine until you get the tome gear. I don't really get why people are so upset/annoyed with Eureka when the relic will be outdated like what 2 months after you get it? Just don't do it something better will replace it soon.

    Is that the ilvl 380 crafted gear?

    I'm sorry I'm actually new to the endgame content and I try to carefully plan how to get up with those ilvls because I know that too much grinding will burn me out quickly.

    Yeah that's the gear. I would double check though, just to make sure it's still ok to start raiding in the crafted set.

    I know I've never done a relic weapon, ever, don't get the point and no one's turned me down from any statics or anything.

    That's been my approach. I've never once touched anything related to Eureka. And so far, it's cost me absolutely nothing. New patch drops, I craft some new gear, and that tides me over until I start getting tome gear & Savage drops. Eureka gear now is about as useful as previous relics currently are- as glamour and little else.

    I think it's because they put 11 months of development time, lots of resources and skipped a dungeon for something that is extremely niche content. It left a lack of content in 4.3 for those who didn't enjoy it. The upset is strongly worded feedback, which is important.

    Considering dungeons are done once, and then it's "run the EX roulette as fast as possible", it doesn't change much. Besides, what were lost are Hard Mode dungeons, so mostly reuse of existing design. Also, Ultimate in odd patches are a big part of why there is only one dungeon.

    The problem with 4.3 was not to have one less content but to have content spread throughout 4.3, 4.35 and 4.36.

    Eureka was a system that had a lot of potential, but sadly SE let it go and cannot seem to find the happy middle ground with their player base. There are lots of other way to get entry level gear for raiding, and need to do what works for you.

    There is no middle ground. Mob grinding is unwelcome.

    Literally everything in the game is mob grinding.
