Please, dont bring Bojza back!

[Jonsky]

tl;dr Please do bring Eureka/Bozja back.

Apologies for the "who asked?" post:
Eureka felt fairly tedious to grind through. Once I got access to logograms the grind became more interesting and the last fight in the Arsenal will always make me stress out regarding pressing movement abilities. Overall though, I enjoyed my time with it. I think I was wrong on this but do you need to actually upgrade a weapon as you go to be able to continue with the Eureka content?

Bozja is more of the same. To be fair, the relic created an incentive for me to try out Bozja but that became a secondary goal after a time. The (up to) 48 person critical engagements are a cool concept. Being able to level jobs normally in there is a good change away from the elemental level system in Eureka. It's sad that you have to go out of your way and sometimes wait a long while to do the in-zone raids. The Rays of XYZ (memory is failing me here on what they're called) are a good way of rewarding further visits to Bozja by way of boosting certain stats by I think 3%? per Ray stack you've obtained.

With all that said, I didn't do either of them when they were fresh and new. I've heard that Eureka was very slow regarding levelling up compared to what it is now. I was able to queue into Delubrum Reginae solo and find large groups so I must have not fully missed the boat at the time.

With Yoshi-P saying "combining them while leaving behind the things that worked less well", it makes me hopeful for what's to come with the new exploration zone they're cooking up. Has it been revealed what the actual name of this exploration zone is going to be? Is it just "Shades' Triangle"?

Relic weapons themselves are optional.

It's also disingenuous to put ARR and HW relics on the same level as EW relics. Gathering atma and zodiac books are just a couple of examples of active grinding for those weapons. Not to mention the usual requirement to remember to equip the weapon in question when doing content for the relics.

Relics are special weapons and should be treated as such, put behind content to make people work for them. It devalues the reward when it's reduced to something to throw tomes at when you're about to cap and have nothing else to spend them on.

If anything, there are a lot of stuff to deal with in Bozja, a lot of people said the story has ended but do you forget that theres that one garlean plotline that just stood there as a cliffhanger?

On the other hand I can't wait to see square's take on a caribean/meso-american paradise, if we go by the zones we had in early DT its bound to be good.
That said if it plays like the second half of eureka I'd be satisified

Please, don't let OP post again!

You want to get rid of the only content that only feels like a true MMO? You must be a solo player because doing Bozja/eureka was the only time we're the game feels how it should be. Dangerous world mobs, teamwork require. Real raids that require massive amounts of teamwork.

You can even make mini builds for each job making it even more fun. In Bozja you can basically make an instant cast black mage or a even stronger Nuke. You get a super Sprint that doesn't exist anywhere else it hella fun times.

Bozja is my favourite content in the entire game. I love it. If you don't like it, then don't play it. Simple as that.

There's no reason for you to petition for content to not be in the game if other people enjoy it. How ridiculous and self-entitled the OP is. I'm disgusted by you.

[franklinwi]

Eureka and Bozja were great, the EW relic was exceedingly boring/trivial to get, and the lack of an exploratory zone was my absolute least favorite thing about EW.

There are dozens of weapon glams added each expansion, OP. If you don't want to jump into actually fun and engaging content to get one, maybe look into one of the remaining dozens.

[Chyro]

Please don't bring back content X that others may like cause I personally hate it and if I hate it nobody else should get this content.

Very selfish take.

[Derio]

Speak for yourself OP. Eureka and Bozja was the most fun I have had in this game. Criterion was boring because it was small party content. 24 man raids this past expansion was a snoozefest. Eureka and Bozja are the only pieces of content outside of fates on an expansion launch that actually give you that MMO experience.

[...]Please... dont. I hate Eureka and Bozja. Nothing in there worked. The whole concept of Bozja/Eureka is horrible. People just played it because of the relic weapons. But it was not fun. You can do nothing except waiting or following the FATE-train.

Fun is subjective. I find this fun and you cannot get these by just "waiting or following the FATE train" as you've described:



I love procuring resources and making profits out of them. I love helping my friendos and newcomers alike to play the content together. I love devising smart ways of using LAs to be stupid powerful that's completely contained within these zones and totally not affecting the rest of the game. I love helping people to grow a liking to the content from a place where they used to hate the content just because surprises surprises, playing with a friend in an MMO can be great.

You don't find them fun? Again, that's fair. You however, got 69696969 other contents to play other than the optional Eureka & Bozja plus the ones we're getting in 7.25. Do some players interact with the content only for relic? For sure. I, for one, was initially one of those players. But a playerbase is NOT a hivemind and I'm certainly not one of them at this point - you don't speak for myself and other of the similar mind.
