Is a relic worth it?

[ForteNightshade]

Amen to that.

The fate RNG is horrendous for step 2 but considering playtime better than doing 36 raids. It's quite a sore spot for me atm because i have numerous alts and have to suffer through this step multiple times. And yes relic is worth it to me. I've done all of them and in spite of the haters I loved Eureka. Not being able to do all of the relic in zone is bad in my view and should actually be easier to finish there than some of the current metrics that make it easier to do outside.

It will forever baffle me what they were aiming to achieve with Shadowbringers' relic. It still forced people into Bozja who, otherwise, had zero interest in the content. While also forcing people who liked Bozja out of it to grind boring FATEs and CT. Basically, all they did is piss off both sides without addressing the actual complaint from Eureka. C

ome 6.0, just let people have an entirely separate step ala the Zodiac/Anima and make the new Bozja primary option. That way, everybody wins.

I thought it was always possible in Bozja without doing FATEs and CT. People just did FATEs and CT because they like doing old content instead.

For the i485 step, you could technically farm for the Memories (Untouched, Sorrowful and Hallowing) through Skirmishes and CEs, but the drop rates were low. Whereas they were guaranteed to drop from Heavensward FATEs. This made the latter far, far more efficient, especially with Blue Mage.

With the current step, you can only acquire Haunting and Vexatious memories from HW alliance raids/Gyr Abania FATEs and SB alliance raids/Far East FATEs, respectively. There's no way to progress this step inside Bozja, though you are only required to do it once.

That does seem strange and would have made more sense to also get them from the new content such as DR.
