Long story short -> soiled prommisory note IS required

Relic weapons are a category of arms designed specifically for a certain job. They are obtained via the “A Relic Reborn” quest, which can be undertaken as of the release of patch 1.22b*. Only players who have completed at least one of the job quests and obtained a soiled promissory note from the NPC Rowena in Ul’dah will be eligible for this quest. Once these conditions are met, “A Relic Reborn” can be started by speaking to the NPC Gerolt at the Hawthorne Hut, found within the Black Shroud.

“A Relic Reborn” is a repeatable quest. After completing it and obtaining a relic weapon, it may be begun again to obtain a different relic weapon. It is not possible, however, to progress towards two different relic weapons simultaneously. Should you wish to pursue a different relic weapon while “A Relic Reborn” is already underway, you must abandon the quest and begin anew. Epic challenges and hard work await those who undertake “A Relic Reborn,” so please choose the object of your desire carefully, lest you find yourself coveting your neighbor’s weapon!

So the x3 Hamlet seals plus 25K seal item is required for getting AF gear. However it isn't clear yet whether the soiled promisory note is exhaused at each attempt at the quest.The 25K item is a key item, so I don't believe that it is consumable, otherwise it would be in our main inventories. However, it is likely that the soiled note is, and you will need the 9 seals for every single weapon >.<

* Though quest progression is possible as of version 1.22b, completion will not be possible until a future patch release.

Or you need to give the NPC the note once and after that he recognizes you.

I think it is this. But collecting 9 seals is borring enough. I don't like Hamlet Defense ._.

Same, very unhappy ; ; might have to miss them out or just chore through the constant grind with 0.000001% droprate.

Woo grind, least in XI you'd get progression with relics XD

[Ilethius]

They might release level 3 hamlets with 1.22b? If they do I hope the drop rate increases. >.<

[Jinrya-Geki]

Now the bigger question, are they gonna be worth this effort?

I'll feel bad for anyone who actually had the patience to do all that work just to see them get screwed by a poorly stated weapon.

[vax]

Probably SE will add another way to obtaing those.

The weapons better make me wet my pants like 20 times in a row. Not worth the grind otherwise.
