I am in no way againts making relic weapons easier to obtain. In fact I welcome it. since i started playing in 2004 i've been wanting an excalibur, aegis, and gungir. the biggest issue i had was how much time it was going to take, time that i frankly didn't have. I like the idea of relic weapons being easier to obtain cause that means I might be able to finish more than one and not have to spend 4-5 years doing it.

I applaud you relic holders for getting your relic weapons, good for you. I was happy to finally get my valor surcoat after waiting for 2 years to get one, an armor piece which has been pretty much outdated since the release of ToAU. That being said, was I upset to see SE start adjusting relic drop rates when myself and many others i know waited months, if not years to get a specific relic piece? I was a little irritated, until I realized that it also works in my favor, making it easier for my to get relic for my other 4 jobs.

As for making them more powerful, you have magian trials to upgrade them, and who knows it might have a synergy recipe too to add more stats. All the time you spend crying that your weapon is outdated could be spent making it better or working on another one. Let the rest of us who have spent the last 7 years in the shadows finally have some time in the sun.
