Please, Yoshida, fix the Bozja content!

[NexusTheDark]

It's officially gotten near as bad as Eureka at this point. The hoverbike mount is an impossibility to get since every FATE has next to no participants, and the end-of-chapter raids are impossible to get groups for.

Beyond that, the drop rate for the Field Notes is atrocious in some cases. I get that the ones for the main antagonists are supposed to be rare, but 100 Dalriada runs without a single drop - I got the Raptor mount before one of them has dropped - is just absolutely awful.

And yes, I know people will say 'just do the Duels' but:

1.You can't get those to spawn reliably or be certain you'll be selected. And with nobody playing in Bozja now, completing the fates with spawn the critical engagements or even the engagements themselves is near impossible to pull off.

2. One single mistake to any mechanic is an instant loss, which is terrible game design and should never have been implemented in the first place; if you mess one pixel-perfect action due to unavoidable lag or distraction you have to wait hours to even try it again.

3. Castrum Lacus Litore, Delibrum Reginae and the Dalriada are impossible to do now in normal play. Nobody ques for them and they're impossible to solo by design.

Please, devs, I am BEGGING you to fix this. Let us use the useless Bozjan coins to BUY the field notes. I will pay in tomestones just to not have yo deal with with this nonsense ever again; but come up with SOME kind of fix or we'll have another Eureka on our hands - content that is long dead and never touched.

You don't need to do the duels.


There are discords for running that content. You just might have to wait a bit as everyone delves into 6.2

[NexusTheDark]

Having to use external third-party software to run content in the game is not good design. And it was already pretty bad BEFORE 6.2 dropped - getting anyone to run a Castrum or Dalriada instance when it popped was like pulling teeth. And it still doesn't solve the quite frankly terrible drop chances for some of the field notes. One hundred runs and one of the rarest mounts in the game drops before a single field note? Does that sound like good balance to you?

It's meant to be a hard one to get, same as all 10s.
You were given a solution to do the content in the meantime. If that's not good enough then feel free to wait patiently for the chance they choose to update it which probably won't happen if we base it off how often they maintain Eureka.

Meanwhile those who don't view Discord as something terrible will continue to do the content as has been done for years now.

Oh come on, seriously? You're using "external third-party software" to voice your discontent. Stop trying to make it sound like it's some sort of cancerous heresy to *checks notes* communicate with other human beings about content you want to do.

*New Playstation game comes Out*
"If you want to play our brand new game, you will only need a Playstation 5... and a PC (Windows x or higher)... and a Smartphone... and Android or iOS xy or higher... and Programm a, b, c, d, u, v..."

I think OP has a point. Its a themepark MMO with lots and lots of Data. Good design is finding information in the game itself. Bandaiding with other programs are just gatekeepers for others and is an addonfix, Community solving an issue.

Furthermore Bozja is old content with old weapons and prices. Its build for fullscale experience, but only a hand full are playing it. This content should be futureproof in the beginning with good scalability.
Hope the devs are fixing this.

[ReynTime]

He won't fix it.

They didn't even bother updating simple to update features they introduced themselves in ARR. That's just the way he operates, unfortunately.

[Reinha]

Thankfully we're not getting a new bozja this time that would be left to rot and become inaccessible in the future.

[Avoidy]

I kinda wish delubrum would be in alliance roulette with an npc at the entrance who sells damage essences for like 1 gil or something, but I bet the 3 people who farm that place for fragments would raise hell if that ever happened.

[Ravor]

It required me 3 months of almost every day farming to get the last field notes from certain fates since i also tried doing the duel but mostly failed, but finally i get it, but i think the uncertainty and very low chance of drop rate need to be changed, but they will always reasoned with guaranteed drop if you win the duel
