These Relics Aren't Relicing

[Supersnow845]

Well currently with the Bozja relics at this point in time due to the general lack of players actively doing DR normal, I'd really just suggest clipping a good chunk of the HP off the bosses to make the fights noticeably shorter with 1-3 ppl and also making that DPS check phase a bit easier to complete when lacking ppl, while also increasing the amount of timeworn artifacts awarded for finishing it. Honestly I feel like this is all the tuning the process needs as no longer current content.

You can easily solo DRN, you just need to use offensive Essences. They 100% should not nerf anything

For me and anyone else that has good essences and also those passive buffs all capped it's definitely soloable. The fights just feel like they drag on longer than they should. However I don't think someone without the passive buffs and just basic grade essences can pass the DPS check phase of the 4 mini bosses solo.

Everything else about it is just a matter of actually doing mechanics.

Then does that really warrant a nerf, if you know what you are doing it’s soloable, if you don’t it’s at worst duoable, it’s not like the game is forcing you to try to find 23 other players

It's more of a thought tbh to address 2 things.

1. the ppl complaining about timeworn artifacts

2. potential new ppl trying to progress the content as I believe clearing DR normal is required to even access the 2nd bozja area.

The rest of Bozja is group content as well though, DR doesn’t need to be made (more) soloable because it’s a part of group content and you barely need anyone to actually do it, getting 8 members for a farm run is really easy, getting 2-4 people who know what they are doing to carry you through is even easier

What’s the point of nerfing content that isn’t hard to get people to do

Good luck trying to DF DRN and getting more than two people, both of whom likely will have less idea on whats happening than you. And PF is not a solution when no 'normal' content in the game otherwise requires it, it is, and should be, reserved for hardcore content only.

If you can’t set up a PF (that will fill) that’s more a you problem than it is a system problem, you’ve already said you struggle due to bad play times. You can’t blame the content if you are queuing at 3am server time; if you are in that situation you need to be making PF’s, because sticking it in the roulette isn’t going to help because it’s almost impossible to get nier to pop at the same time

Or if it’s too much of a problem transfer to JP/NA, one of their server peak times must align with your playtime if EU is outside your time

I would say that's more of a poor experience (for me at least) to solo that content unless someone deliberately chooses to do so, in comparison to how it's meant to be run, as long as at least some people are using appropriate essences. Which is why it's a real shame that the current design doesn't allow for it to have been added to a roulette.

That I think is part of the issue with DR is it's separated from bozja's exploratory zone instances and as a result it makes the bottleneck in the relic assembly line process if you're doing multiple at the same time to have 1 going at each step worse. If it had at the least been added to Duty Finder it would probably be populated more often.

However overall, reducing the HP pool of the bosses doesn't really impact the actual content outside of the noted DPS check phase of 1 battle. It only really reduces the amount of time spent completing it. (Though I am aware of numerical "sweet spots" with the echo buff that easily result in clears faster than having a full instance of ppl)
