The European XFEL is a X-ray free-electron laser facility that provides x-ray radiation with outstanding characteristics. The same characteristics that are potentially enabling completely new kind of experiments are also creating unique and demanding specifications for the needed optical devices. I will show the most critical components that are still in very high demand at European XFEL even after 6 years of Operations and their impact to upgrade projects.
