    Nexus and Zodiac Farm after HW (Possible fix?).

    Yes, we all know that the relic is now useless, but some of you might still want it for glamour; however, farming light is a GIANT PAIN IN THE BUM, especially for Dps. Dungeon ques are awful.
    Now that the weapon is completely outdated, I'm thinking it's time they allow players to get light bonuses from running dungeons solo, unsync'd. My thoughts are that this would allow people to:
    1. finish the gosh darn quest, and
    2. free up DF space in dungeons for people who are trying to level new classes.
    Like I said, kinda useless at this point, but I'm sure there are people out there who would still like to finish.
    Any thoughts on the topic?

    There's math suggesting that grinding FATEs around Summerford is more efficient that grinding old dungeons/primals nowadays. It's a small area, they're piss easy, and there are a lot of them.

    A grind is a grind. Doesn't make my last 800 light grind any more pleasant.

    I will give this a try next time I figure I wan't to glamour a weapon. Good suggestion. I often don't think about FATES for light farming since, back when I did my first relic, it was the absolute worst way of farming lights. With the light buffs it's probably a safe bet these days. ty.

    With the Lightboost, its easy to gather light (now its like x4 or x8 as it used to be). It would be nice to gather light via solo queue, but IMHO its not that important.. as you said its outdated, so keep your weapon and whenever you had a chance or a roulette, just switch to the relic at final boss. I did that and I was done with tlight farm without even noticing.

    Try to have fun, don't let the Light farm ruin your fun, there is more in game than just that. Best of Luck.
