I haven't been in eureka in about a month - have bunny fates improved in Pyros in any way? Either by the devs changing the number of bunnies that spawn, or just less people doing the fate in general? Honestly the most discouraging thing about Pyros is not being able to craft the actions you want because the only sustainable way to get the rarer crystals is through bunny fates.

To be honest I don't mind Amenos or Pyros. The big reason why is that both provided a steady stream of loot. (Amenos was better about this but whatevs.) Pagos sucked because it was slow, tedious and you barely got anything from it.Vitamean posted:I haven't been in eureka in about a month - have bunny fates improved in Pyros in any way?

Bunnies are pretty regular and honestly logogram prices are rock bottom lately.

So far my only eureka experience is grinding out the challenge logs in Anemos. The brief time I've spent in Pagos doing the quests to advance to Pyros sucked, and I can't wait to never go back.

What spells are you trying to craft that actually use offensive logograms? Irregular is fun to use if you're reflect farming but hardly needed, and Bravery is alright I guess? The rest of the spells that need Bloodbath/Skirmirsher to craft them aren't that good, unless you really feel like killing yourself with double edge.

homeless snail posted:This is honestly the saddest post I've ever seen in this thread Well I mean, diadem 2.0 is conceptually also more fun. It wasn't fun enough to get me to grind in it for the rare things though. If Eureka was 2.0 Diadem but with bosses that have actual mechanics, I would like it a lot more. Which is to say that I would likely find it ok content that I resent less than afking through Eureka while I do something fun on a second device because I collect glowing swords like most people collect mounts and minions.

Vermain posted:I think the best way to put it without devolving into a multi-page argument is that it's divisive. Some people enjoy it, especially the later zones released, while others can't stand it. It caters to a specific sort of interest, much like the other side content SE releases for FFXIV. Eureka is good. Anemos is good. Pagos was a warcrime but now it is tolerable. Pyros is better than Anemos. Hydatos will likely be better than Pyros. However, there are some idiots in this thread that spazz out with insane hyperbolic vitriol any time Eureka is even mentioned.

Grinding for the right to grind: The Instance is not good. Hundred players zerging bosses: The Instance also is not good. Afk while waiting for the thing to spawn: The Instance is literally the worst. All of these are Eureka.

A hundred players zerging a boss is actually great, because it's hilarious to watch fifty of them get instagibbed the moment Louhi does any sort of cleave. And all of Louhi's moves are cleaves.

As of the most recent changes, Eureka has ascended to the lofty heights of "solidly mediocre". It will, however, no longer make you long for death and the gigantic periods of sitting around AFK waiting for something, anything to happen seems to finally be dead. If you prep them, they will spawn. Even Cassie (weather allowing)! Now to see if they immediately backslide with some sort of new regressive garbage in Hydratus. My guess is that they will and it will remain unfixed for several months. The required steps to get the dungeon open and then to actually do it are a prime candidate.

The required steps to get the dungeon open and then to actually do it are a prime candidate. Hydatos should be good right away. Pyros was good right away. Pagos was an oversight because they initially made it for a very small subgroup of people. And it was in development before Anemos was released and they didn't know how many people would be interested in Eureka. Pyros was made in a post-Anemos world, which is way Pyros feels like the sequel to Anemos, not Pagos.

Mordiceius posted:Hydatos should be good right away. Pyros was good right away. Pyros had much of the same problems, albeit to a slightly lesser extent, that Pagos did in regards to linking together large numbers of spawns that were then queued with weather locked NMs that would cause everything to just logjam at times. The most recent patch fixed that though. Bunny FATEs (and how they encourage large swathes of the players to not help prep things, since they could be doing bunnies instead) and the availability of certain logos actions due to the absurd rarity they gave to the offensive crystals is still all kinds of messed up and still not addressed as well. "Less bad than Pagos" is such an incredibly low bar that there is still plenty of room to remain bad while clearing it.

Yeah this is half the problem with it. The other half is the total dependence on other players to progress, sure you needed parties to do the dungeons for the old relics, but you could just queue for those and do other stuff.
