Give the possible Eureka 5.X its own weapon, and separate Relic from it

[Jandor]

If your only reason for liking Eureka is because you get the Relic, then you really need to re-evaluate about whether you actually like the content or merely just like the reward.

I reckon the only reason 95%+ of people did it was because it had a reward they liked locked behind it, because that's why people do things in this game.
Doing it for the reward and finding it fun are not mutually exclusive, but without a good reward fun alone won't keep the content relevant for long.

It's the same with Savage raids, people do it for the gear locked behind it. Without that gear numbers would drop.

Same with Extreme trials, they want the primal weapons and mounts. Without those, people would stop running them.

Same with Alliance raids, people want the catch up gear and upgrade tokens. You get the picture.

Hell, it's the same with expert roulette. Who in their right mind would be running the same 2 or 3 expert dungeons over and over again if it didn't give lots of tomes?

The majority of the population aren't doing content because it's fun, they're doing it because they want the stuff that comes from it. The more fun they have getting those rewards the better, people having fun stick around and people not having fun burn out and leave, but character progression in some form is the key to getting most people to actually do stuff.
