Why can't we turn Bozja/DR/Zadnor gear in for GC seals?

[Krotoan]

I think it'd be a decently easy fix to add SOME value to something with almost no value atm. Just flip that turn in switch and now I have somewhere for those coins to go eventually.

[Hasrat]

Dont forget about bronze coins. I have no idea what to do with themm

There... are no bronze Bozja coins. Unless you mean the regular coins from Southern Front, which, honestly are the only coins worth collecting, since they're the only ones that trade in for gear with Haste for the zones. Now that all the rest of the gear is purely for glamour, the rest of the coins are pretty useless.

There are people who don't have alts to level that still want to do the bozja content. Right now there isn't much that Bozja offers for them, but adding this could fix that for those players. Grinding bozja coins to turn into GC seals for the minion/mount boxes would be a great incentive for people who don't need exp.

Why not just let people buy those boxes with Bozja coin?

I forgot the name but its the black coin thinggy. You get 999 of them and they cant be traded or upgraded to the better coins that at least worth something.

There are:
• Bozjan Coin - Drops from CLL chests, BSF Skirmishes/CEs after initial CLL clear, & trading BSF field notes.
• Bozjan Silver Coins - Drops from Delubrum Reginae & trading Delubrum field notes.
• Bozjan Gold Coins - Exchange silvers, may drop from Delubrum & weekly quest.
• Bozjan Mythril Coins - Drops from Dalriada, some Zadnor’s CEs, & trading Zadnor field notes.
• Bozjan Platinum Coins - Exchangw mythrils, drops from Dalriada & Weekly quest.

Now if only they would move these into an actual currency tab, because needing 5 inventory slots just for these is obnoxious.

I mean, it already has value in the form of very cool glamour items, especially if you're a fan of FFXII, what other incentive do you need...
It's the same thing for the Elemental sets from Eureka

[Erendis]

We could not turn in pink Eureka gear for multipe expansions, and it was a lot easier to get...

[BokoToloko]

The only way to get rid of Bozja gear is by discarding it atm, so they at least should allow to desynth and/or turn it for GCs. It would at least give something that way.

[Floortank]

We can turn poetic gear in for GC seals, so why not the Bozja gear as well? This would add value to the bozja coins and give people a huge incentive for doing the bozja content. This would be an easy and effective incentive to add.

It would neither be great, nor effective. It takes an hour+ of work to get a single piece of Bozja gear, which would be worth ~2000 Grand Company Seals upon turn in.

Or I could just solo a dungeon unsynced in 15 minutes and make ~10,000 Grand Company Seals.

If someone wants GC seals, "it's Bozja time!" would be like the 10th choice at the bottom of the list. Effectively no one would do it for that reason. It'd be down there like doing 8 man raids for Grand Company seals, also practically unheard of. There are way easier ways to farm the seals... so it's not an incentive.

Then, on the other side of the coin, think about being a GM and having to field an extra 100 support calls every month because someone accidentally desynthed or GC'd a piece of Eureka-style long grind gear. This is most likely the reason those things cannot be cashed in. The "reward" is incredibly low, and the cost, to the player and to SE, is incredibly high. Not worth it.

The role that the Bozja Armor is, is that it's Relic Armor (Like it's Eurekan Predecessor the Elemental Armor). The real issue is that it was done in quite a messy way. BSF Bozjan Armor worked out fine at first, get it with coins and then upgrade it for haste by either using Coins or getting a lucky drop in CLL, and it helped the market in that you could sell those lucky drops. Then Law's Order came out, you couldn't upgrade it from Bozjan Armor at first and then when you could, it required doing DR Savage and ONLY DR Savage for the items needed, no coin turn in or lucky drop or marketable. So now you have two sets of 35 Armor pieces. Then Zadnor releases and not only can you not upgrade it from Augmented Law's Order, at all. But it's an entirely different set, purely for glam (which in itself is fine) or easy (at the time) end game gear. So for the average Non-Savager player, who's trying to collect all Relic sets, it's 105 items that have stats that aren't customizable (as per the usual excuse for no Armior usage).

The idea of Relic Armor was nice, but Bozja Armor as a whole was badly executed.
