    Well yes, precisely. To each their own.
    Despite having quite a disappointment for some of the relic's latest phase, personally I have very high hopes on most of ShB relics, especially after I've seen their base recollection models. Besides, considering how SE did not make this content futureproof, I figured I'll have a nasty time trying to finish these relics if I were to put them on hold, so I might as well do the 10 classes that I play regularly. The other 7 can wait... in case my brain have any leftover sanity to spare lol.

    Mount and hairstyles on the other hand...isn't high in my priority list. Moreover, the mount is basically a recolored regular gabriel mount obtainable from lockboxes...hence it doesn't warrant enough interest personally to make me want it. But up till now, it's still sitting in MB untouched. Just few days more before I use it for myself.

    Running with friends and some 'equally insane' (lol) FCmate does motivates me to keep going (Also I just finished 122nd run)

    This is my biggest issue with the relics. They're doubling down on the Eureka model, requiring us to sync down if we want to do this relic or the SB relic.

    Which in turn makes them pointlessly difficult to obtain in the future.

    Think if we are in 9.0 and we want to go back for some reason to grind out a relic in 5.0 or 6.0.

    For 5.0 we have to sync down.

    For 6.0, unless they change things, we have to sync down AND do 24 person content. If they don't make a MAJOR change, this will by far be the worst relic to try to solo because you literally can't.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    Well they should add the artifacts obtainable from other raids like Nier or Orborne ones, since right now people just farm for relics so other content is kinda dead right now.

    Locking stuff behind a certain raid is just bad idea. Like you can do 15x Crystal tower for memory or 3xCastrum to get a relic done, so people need to run castrum like 51times to get all 17 relics and never do it again, content dead.

    DR punishes peoples death with mettle losing but it doesnt give any mettle back even if we dont die and complete it. The worst part are just the rewards, takes too long for just few silver coins, with a huge rng on additional ones. It kinda sucks like the indigo stars from those hard earned chests on front.

    They should tweek into DR:
    - mettle gain even a bit
    - rise in % for additional drops
    - rng on the artifact items like you will always get at least 1 but with the chance to gain additional 2-3 if we are lucky
    - add hair piece/mount buyable for silver/gold coins

    The whole point of having to run DR 255times for all 17 relics is just way to much.
