Then the quest asks you to do all fifty assaults you can only four a day if you remember to pick up your tags. You have to beat each section of salvage get through einherjar and beat Odin. Get 30k alexandrite, 150k tokens, and 100k ichor. Read many runs of the events that drop/reward these until you have enough or bought enough. Again can only do nyzul or assaults as many times that you have tags for. Can only do salvage once a day and that takes up assault points to do so. Einherjar takes 60k gil just to go inside and can only do this every 20 minutes after leaving the chamber they were in.
    Might have to take a break here and there to farm. After you finish that step you get to go take pictures of mobs so you can get enough to do ZNMs yay!!! Which has it's own tiers and can't do the nms you need until you have done nine other nms for each of the three nms you need an item off from. So 30 nms total followed by a fight and you get a nude mythic yay! Then trade your weapon to a tombstone get your full mythic and wait a JP midnight to complete the quest.

    The only thing I can think of pre abyssea part of an empyrean weapon that might take a few days depending on the nm you get sent after are the ones that have whacky respawn timers. The vnms are pretty quick to get done in a short amount of time.
    Once inside abyssea the only weapons that might take a bit to get past the first of the three are the three weapons that need fistule as he is a 30min respawn. Though hey after the 2nd aby nm you actually get a weapon that does the ws thus a functioning weapon. It also starts ten leves higher than their mythic and relic counterparts. At this point you probably have spent less time and money than someone going for either of the other two. Now if you are soloing this and not trying to get the procs to increase the chance of the KIs to pop your nms then that is on you and not the game.
    To be fair mythic is stupid easy from 75 to 99. Relic has marrows. And empy hmp and rifts or dross. Most empys wont go past 90.

    I pretty much agree with Afania on everything. Anybody who wants to make a Mythic can make one. Or don't, you'll never be booted out of a group for not having one. The effort is significant, but the reward is also significant and it's one of the last truly significant accomplishments in the game.

    Aside from that, the effort/reward is much better than Empyrean weapons and comparable to Relics. In many cases, these are the best weapons in the game.

    Put a gun to my head and I'll say fix ToAU spawn conditions and give us more Assault tags. Other than that, don't change a thing.

    All I see on the forum is "Cut Mythic requirement by half so I can own a mythic, wait you already wasted years of your life doing the longer requirement? Too bad for you, idc as long as I can have mythic too, oh and you're selfish/foolish/dumb/w/e if you want me to go through the work of Mythic."

    How about just don't do mythic if you don't feel like it?

    True most wont but to me the argument is which one takes longer to obtain. You can stop an empy at 85 since you have the weapon skill and aftermath. You can't have a mythic with stats until you have done the full quest. Vs being able once inside aby to beat your nm(s) multiple times in a day. Heck a working relic outside if dynamis happens before you complete the quest. Now if we are saying they are not complete till they are "done" thus both quests are done for relic and mythic and empy just got to 99 I still think myth is still longer.

    Might be longer, but the reward is much better too. Also, if you only care about the WS, you will not 90 your Empyrean. You'll 99 a WoE weapon instead. I don't think you can compare anything but the ilvl 119 versions.
