Where is OC related relic step grind/way?

Shareholders: why login numbers dwindling down, fix that!

Square: lets make relic forced 10 day slop grind tied to roulettes, why make new content for OC.


The fact that you can't spam what you want is atrocious. I did 180 normal raids for bozja relic but this "help botters to do roulettes daily" is horrible.

Give 2nd step grind inside OC. Like now idc, terrible patch that was not worth of waiting for. Why was this even drip feeded till 2nd september??????????????

And to add a salt to an injury, it looks like 2nd step is just another stats boost, nothing OC related AGAIN. Why these quests are even tied to OC if we can't get at least +1/40 stat bonus?

Why would a game where you have to pay monthly drip feed it's players? It is a mystery~!

The problem there is that OC has nothing but a glorified hunt train and Forked Tower. If the step was doing roulettes or killing mobs and completing FATEs/CEs in South Horn, it'd be better, but that's still grinding the same pitiful number of encounters that people have been grinding since May.

Players: Forced time-gated tedious grind. Let us do it in 1 day.
SE: Ok.

Players: It's done-in-a-day content. Lazy.
SE: Ok, it'll take a while this time.

Repeat. SE can't win.

tedium is in the eye of the beholder. Why would someone who hates tedium play an MMO, mr. SE employee?

OC doesnt have multiple zones like eureka and no normal raids like bozja. theres nothing left to grind in there

C'mon gang, let's head to the old Quarrymill. If we work together, we solve this mystery!

Would be a good argument if Yoshida wouldn't tell players to just not sub if they don't like the content.

I definitely agree that the relics do not feel rewarding enough to merit the step design. I also think overall the process of gaining a relic does not feel modular enough.

Relics don't work because they're trying to make people grind content that has terrible shelf life and horrible repeatability. Almost anythingin this game can be fun the first couple of times, but then it just loses all its magic and turns into a chore.
