Just because nothing was mentioned, doesn't mean nothing will change. They know we hate walk of echoes, and they're going to be revamping it. They know it would be stupid to have Dynamis based on that. If they did that, it would just make those areas more dead than they already are.
It would be stupid to imagine it staying, it is not going to be like a battlefield, it is going to be like an abyssea area without the abyssea stuff.
lolRelic Weapon? SE what have you done?

Might as well spit out my idea. Build a Light skillchain, then use a relic ws that has Darkness for Cosmic Elucidation, or vice versa with a Light closer. Like a weak single target Zantetsuken.

Just to reply to a few of the posts here, please do not make up ideas on how weapons MIGHT have been obtained to determine the ease. Yes, its possible to get anything relatively easy if you are willing to cheat. That's not really the point of the thread.
Empys are being created in a matter of weeks all the way to level 90 without buying gil or cheating. Those who read the forums know this is true. It's not true that you can build a relic or mythic in weeks (outside of cheating) and in fact most of them took many months or even a year to make.
SE created the hard work for relic and mythic and the high cost in order to make them rare. Then SE created the WS kill shot method to upgrade them with thousands of mob kills (all requiring what were often weak weapon skills.) Trust me...doing 6-8,000 kill-shots is what many relic owners did.
Then SE created empys and magians...weapons which could be obtained EASILY by a small group of people at no cost. (Actually, some today are being duo-ed or two boxed.) These are weapons that across the board beat out relics and mythics by 10-40% in damage. It WAS a HUGE deal in 2006 when someone had 2 or 3 relics. Today in a matter of months, multiple people have 4 or 5 level 90 empyreans. Others have bunches of level 90 magians, each of which beat relics in abyssea and match them outside of abyssea.
Relics should have been heavily buffed and so should mythics. It's simply dumb founding that this is not obvious to SE. It doesn't matter that they actually do more damage. They should have some attributes (slightly less damage but MUCH stronger defense wise) which would justify the investment.
(And to NOW make relics easy to obtain simply spits all over the people who worked hard in 2004-2009 to get either weapon.) -

Just wish the relics could stand proud against the empyrean weapons. The work my husband and I did getting his up to 85 took months. Those kill shots with Catastrophe were horrible.
