DW guys I posted the bug here, I'm sure SE will absolutely reply in a good natured way and fix the bug.

03-09-2017, 10:03 PMSentinilliaThey already did a test run in 3.1. It was universally shunned. Now they just released the same thing with a coat of paint (FATEs) on it. And no, if you get a weapon with +2 Weapon Damage even with bad rolls it will be better than relics.Quote:

I know with all the healer weapons secondary stats outweighs weapon damage for dps regularly, because weapon damage doesnt weigh as much on healer weapons as say, a WAR axe (like 37 weaighting I think? XD). For example people were using the Zurvan Book (i265) over the A12S book (i275) because the secondary stats are worth so much.Quote:

03-09-2017, 10:13 PM_slowpoke_It is not really different and it's not pointless to complain. The timing of this is absolutely awful and invalidates not only the raid weapons, but nearly 2 years worth of the relic weapon grind, 9 days after it was finally completed. I assure you that the salt mountain would've been way less big if they'd released this like a month before Stormblood, and not now. It ludicrous and incredibly dumb.Quote:

Plus, it's not like people aren't aware that Stormblood will be a completete reset anyway - that's expected and perfectly fine, since we'll be getting a lot of actually new content as well as lots of overhauls all across the board, in addition to two new jobs which will likely shake up the meta quite a bit (if they don't fuck them up like they did MCH and AST in 3.0).
Also, the gear from Diadem would've been entirely fine if it was i260 and could only almost compete with raid and augmented shire gear, instead of automatically being BiS for literally everyone in every slot. It would've been a great way to gear alt jobs in preparation for Stormblood while not completely invalidating basically everything that people have worked hard for, while giving us filler content until Stormblood just as well. There was literally no reason to for this bullshit to happen. -

2 years, 2 damm years farming and doing my 2 relics (yeah is more easy that the original but the effort in general is pretty high) and now they release conten how give us better weapons that us? for real?, i can understand you give us free 275 weapons, or meaby 280 pink weapons but same attack power that a 275, but this? i feeling like SE spit in all our work even if is random you still have the chance to see all you work in to dust at day 1.
pff i guess the relics go to still be usefull to skip the 1ยบ step of the new relic but sure that step go to be so easy so thats not matters much. -

Someone correct me if im wrong here.
The chance of the drop being my main is 1/13.
The chance that it will drop to me is 1/72 (its really the number of participants, but from what im hearing this is no low manning affair.)
making the chance that I get the drop for my main 1/936
and that's assuming the fight occurs every time and the weapon drops every time. which may not be true.
if the fight occurs one chance in 5 as someone said on the forum, that could make this 1/4680. again not accounting for drop rate. -

And the funny thing was, I was really looking forward to putting my time in for the Anima weapon.
But what's the point? Run Diadem until I get max stats! -
03-09-2017, 10:28 PMLatallatIt's not even a joke though. They released it with a SUPERobvious translation error. Like SO SO obvious. It stands to reason that the ilvl was a typo in the code as well.Quote:

What on earth possessed them to do the same stupid thing that no one liked....
