In ARR and HW I could keep upgrading my Relic weapon and never needed a Tomestone or Primal weapon. In SB however I've had to keep getting tome weapons since I can't stand Eureka. There has always been Crafted, Relic, Tomestone, and Savage weapons for Endgame. Deepdungeon weapons if you want to add catch up weapons. Eureka should have been another weapon added to the list of options. Not taking the place of one.
For Eureka all you have to do is grind mobs and do Fates just like in ARR. Unlike ARR and Heavensward, you do not have to do Primals or Dungeons. you ONLY have to do Fates and grind mobs. No 9 Books of Mobs + Fates + Dungeons, No Do all the Primals in the game. You ONLY have to do Fates. You get everything you need. Crystals, Lights, Logograms and upgrade items through Fates (Either Bunny fates or Normal, I have gotten all varieties of Logos from Fate content). You don't need to do anything else if you really don't want to, On your own time, at your Leisure. That is the reality of Eureka. Now if you do want the Eureka stat Weapon then yes you need to do Baldesion Arsenal for the Eureka Fragments. It does NOT change the appearance or its Stats outside of Eureka.

It is SUPER casual content, even more so than the ARR and HW weapons. I did not have to Craft. I did not have to do Dungeons, I did not have to do Primals. There was no Farming Leves for Ambers, spending tomes on items to turn in for other items. I didn't have to do Maps, meld alexandrite, or even trade in items for sand. This is the most Casual Relic I have done so far.
