So, how is Pyros?

[Vahlnir]

Some personal feedback for Pyros so far:

First off, leveling is much faster. It also helps that I got to lvl 38 just from Pagos and finishing that relic step. Bunny fates giving exp is also a good thing, and you can hunt for treasure with a little bit of luck while you wait for things to spawn. All of this is much appreciated.

Second, the map is much, MUCH easier to navigate aside from maybe a couple bottlenecks. Having the aetherytes unlock at earlier levels helps a ton with that, since most NMs can be easily accessible from any of them.

Third, and this is where I start to get slightly negative...finding a group to do anything except when an NM spawns is hell. It takes awhile to find a group to at least do bunny fates, if you're lucky to get a group at all.

Fourth, apparently the big boss NM required to finish our relics is time gated to the extreme, and way too random to boot. It's Pyros, the Heat Wave weather should appear very often to at least counter the randomness of the spawn. Seriously. Especially when "light" farming for random stats is a thing.

The grind itself isn't too bad, but it's made slightly worse than Pagos with all the RNG involved. That's pretty much my thoughts on Pyros so far.
