Please no more Eureka!

[BubblyBoar]

Like I said before, Eurkea having a weapon inside of it is fine for those that like it. I just want the relic to go back to the old way. There's no reason we can't have both unless people think Eureka can't stand without the relic in it.

Eureka would not stand without the relic,glams,mounts,minions,etc

Should Eureka have unique rewards like other content(for example POTD/HOH,PVP,etc)?

Sure.

But when devs have to put so many rewards,in such a short space of time, to incentivize players...and let's not forget the nerfs.

I happen to enjoy Eureka and am more than pleased they confirmed to be working on Exploratory content similar to it in 5.0 but I dont go about asking the devs to please remove other content for it. You dont even know how many developers work for this. The only confirmed dev in charge of it has been Mr. Nakagawa. And theres been no removal of any other content other than that 1 dungeon they removed in order to add things like PoTD, HoH, Rival wings, Ultimate, BLU, etc. SE Please dont listen to this thread. Threads like these are people going off on heightened emotions. There are alot of ppl who enjoy Eureka and are working towards Hydatos.

Since the begining of Pyros... I've crafted 5 Pyros Relics. The worst part of it is light farming in Pagos. For me, Eureka is one of the most 'new contents' I've enjoyed in whole FFXIV since 1.0. But, I don't want more eureka in 5.0. This would be too much repetitive.

mi condolences to everybody sacrificed himself to clear Eureka yet hating it. Back in 2.0 and 3.0 relic I bored his quests so much and droped with no regret. I farmed later with Poetics and all nerfed P:

I like this content and i do believe it will get better. With more logo actions coming, and hopefully new gear for these zones, maybe we can get something that changes ability cooldowns or potency.

Eureka actually had an interesting start in Anemos.

The map was dense enough to make getting to some areas a challenge, but sparse in areas so it didnt feel like you had to be solid snake to get anywhere. Riding didnt feel required early on, but should have been unlocked by the time you had both aetherytes.

The lockboxes had plenty of rewards, and the dual crystal system was, outside needing to get one of the completely random ones to do ANYTHING in the zone (this was a terrible idea), rewarding. You could get gear both by grinding mobs in parties and by nm training, and you could do either of those things in short or long bursts.

Obtaining weapons was pretty easy too, outside that "sometimes I dont spawn this weekend" pazuzu trolling. But every pazuzu kill meant a weapon.

I had high hopes we would go into the second stage and have two tiers of crystals, one overlapped with anemos (especially since they said we werent upgrading the armor in pagos, it would have let us finish collections off with those while working on weapons with the new one).


And then pagos happened and eureka went off the deep end.

You had to solid snake it everywhere at all times, density was terrible, rewards were significantly worse, you had to sit and grind light to grind light to grind light, and it was a terrible experience for most people.

And several rounds of nerfs later, ugh.

Hope you dont want the emote or hair. Have fun with the worst grinding in a mmo to date. No, I dont mean farming light. I mean farming things that sometimes remember to transform and then sometimes drop a different chest. It's an exercise in remembering why mmos stopped using this kind of content as actual content.

And then theres other stuff locked behind the bunnies, which maybe there might be a group for sometimes, but you cant really under-man.

[Barraind]

Then pyros.

It was better than pagos!

Initially.

If you're trying to catch up though, it's a hellhole.

Bunnies? Nah, people just refuse to do half of them, so logograms are rarer now than they were on the first day.

Grind groups? Not really. Maybe a reflect farm group every now and then, but it's mostly a couple prep groups, half the zone waiting for sbuns to spawn, and a lot of afk.

Did the armor upgrade from anemos armor? Nope. Well that was worthless then. It's also tied behind unlocking every logos action, which means it's still irrelevant.

And the lockboxes pretty much suck again, since the glam is locked behind full logogram completion or bunny chests. And the grind other things for chests mechanic is back, but less tedious, since it -doesnt- have useful rewards, only required logograms.


Cant wait for hydatos to have a more congested map, a dungeon that's going to result in more griefing than we've seen in years, more grinding useless mobs for something required to unlock things, a relic that wont compete for best in slot and needing to sacrifice a firstborn for the one cool looking thing in there (thaaat armor), which will, with our luck, need anemos armor, pyros armor, pagos light crystals, and something equally as tedious from hydatos.


Eureka can stay in Stormblood.

Please god let it stay in stormblood.

[reivaxe]

Then pyros.

Bunnies? Nah, people just refuse to do half of them, so logograms are rarer now than they were on the first day.

Not sure what you mean by half. Cause I've been playing Pyros for one week and if there's ANYTHING people do it's grind bunnies. People AFK there between NMs and groups rush there every-time it pops.

Are you saying no one wants to do North? Because that's ... true and perfectly reasonable. Even at max level there's things up there that will aggro and 2 shot you. Maybe they give higher rates of gold chest? IDK because the one time I did it I didn't get a damn bunny. So what point is there to doing North Bunny Fates? Can't guarantee a bunny and if you get one you gotta risk deleveling because you may end up in a place no one wants to go ... and there's no guarantee you wont get a Bronze chest for your troubles.

Have been catching a few people up, and Pagos is a lot easier than Pyros for everything except reflect farming.

People in Pagos are actually trying to DO THINGS in Pagos, which makes it go significantly faster.

You will be roadblocked in Pyros hardcore unless you preform a group specifically to do the things you want to do.

No sure what you mean here either.

I max leveled Pyros in a week by NM and Bunny fate farming along with going back to Pagos to do Ashkin and element clog completes. Once I got to 42 I leveled a few times with solo reflecting before going back to NMs. There's lots of different things to do, be it light farming or reflect farming for logos or bunny fates for chest (And logos and gold and glam and mount) or prepping NMs or reg NM parties. Can't really take a NM train group and say "Lets do Reflecting now!" when you have no reason to think everyone has reflect or can get it.

No different then the other two ... you do Clogs at first and get to a decent level where it's not too scary to do NMs until you're high enough to actually help push through content.

I am a returning player. What exactly is Eureka?

[Connor]

Maybe it’s better now than it was before, but I’ll still never get to Pyros/Hydatos unless they delete Pagos lol.

It’s weird because I remember in FFXI spending ages and ages at levelling camps (like that infamous one at Abyssea lol) and never really got that bothered by it. But doing the same in XIV, for whatever reason, is just unbareable to me lol. I can barely last 20-30 minutes of endless mob slaughter in Eureka before wondering why I even went in the first place.
