Southern Front Problems

In my opinion it was probably a mistake to let people get the relics outside of Bozja, it was definitely a mistake to make it the fastest method.

I much prefer doing Bozja to grinding HW fates, but the knowledge that I'm playing inefficiently inherently saps some of the fun out of the content. I'm not the best player in the game but I do at least try to avoid deliberately playing the game wrong, and that's what engaging with the relic content to get my relic feels like, playing the game wrong. In the time I can get one from Bozja, I could have got two or maybe even three from Heavensward instead.

I do agree that its a bit strange that they made the version outside of Bozja into the more efficient one...at the same time my biggest problem with it is more that its not as optional as they said it would be...Eureka was imo a problem because it was the only way to get the relic...I was so happy when I heard that its not the case for the Shadowbringer one but in the end that is only half the truth....you can do it another way..but if you do that with your first relic you wont be able to do the next step because somehow Bozja is still mandatory...which in turn is bad for anyone that wants to do the relic later...

Right now I can do the ARR and HW relic whenever I feel like it. No matter how many others want to do it or not I can progress. With the last one and this one this is not the case anymore... you need to hope that other people are there and willing to grind through it in separate content. (And castrum is the worst since there is imo no real reason to do that if you dont want the coins)

Honestly in my opinion they should just get away from making new content for the relic...why not simply have it be for old content? Why was it changed so much? All the work put into it and yet it might stop people from doing it further down the way...
