For something like relics, there needs to be multiple ways to do the steps. And no one way should be superior, just a way to give variety. So nothing like harder content giving more progress or anything. Especially because these are supposed to be the non-raider path to getting decent gear.

And I'm with another poster. I will quit this game before I ever set foot in another Eureka. The took the worst of the EQ era gaming traits without any of the positives. I noped out in Pagos and never went back. I was pissed as hell that I wasn't able to get any of my Stormblood relics because they had locked it all behind that.
