    I think the issue is that you're right, it's not really for casual players. This seems like it had potential to be that strong midcore content that many were asking for, so it could be more punishing. But they tied the casual endgame weapon, the resistance weapons, to going through it. So they dragged in people who otherwise wouldn't touch this content by waving something they wanted badly in their faces. And that's just unfair to the midcore people who could really sink their teeth into this content and be quite happy with it.

    Honestly it sounds really fun and if it was just a random instance or at least I didn't have to go through all the rest of the Bozja stuff for it, I'd poke my head in. I would get frustrated as hell I'm sure and there would be much cursing at my monitor, but I enjoy the emotional payoff you get when you finally get that sort of thing down.

    I can definitely see how that would be frustrating and very not fun for the casual playerbase, though, and think SE did something really stupid making it required for the relic and thus luring people into it who it's not designed for. If they hadn't done that, they could have, I dunno, "preserved" this content for the midcore mentality and tweaked things to fit. Some might see that as a waste of development time, but I think the midcore audience, while not being as large as the more casual playerbase, it still large enough to make it worth it.

    i have maxed all jobs but it doesnt mean im midcore or hardcore. im proud casual and this content is really casual friendly. its just about learning . thing you will run it i more then 10 times means, you will learn it . if you dont know , just follow others, ask in chat how to dodge this and that etc. its not designed to be done once and do POTD for other pieces. i wish they would nerf Eureka but thats another thing. this Bozja is good , balanced idk. i hate fates in Bozja but those 3 big battles are great. and if you managed to beat Shadowbringers, it shouldnt be such problem to clear those. also use essences or other defensive/healing actions if you dont feel youre able to make it. like i said some post above , diyng isnt something you should be ashamed of , it happens o/ i also see many crown people on the floor
    well obey is something i always dont know where to stay and always writing it chat very negative words about it but its really managable for casuals
