Really think that this stops them adding an alternate path to stage 1... no it doesn't

Basically 20 ADL kills should be the max of what people should be required to do meaning it should either be 1-2 items or 20 kills (if you have both paths available then u could have 5-10 items)

REALLY IT SHOULD WORK LIKE THIS THO

Stage 1 = 20 kills of ADL
Stage 2 = 100 ADL items

So that stage 1 feeds stage 2

Basically every relic user could get there stage 1 99 version and there would be around 1 stage 2 for every 150-200 relics which is exactly what you want right SE.

While this is the most clear option there are plenty of alternate way you can choose to fix this....

2000 coins = X U.marrow u need to complete stage 1.
U.marrow to drop of all NMs
M.trail neck that for 10k exp in Dyna = 1 U.marrow.

As for Mythics

Stage 1 : 1-2 PW kills (i'd go with 1 here cause the fight is v/ job specific)
Stage 2 : 10 PW items

Emps

Stage 1 : Kill any T6 X 30
Stage 2 :Riftxxxxx X 100-200

EIther way as for not playing FFXIV if ya add this or not ..... well i'm not gonna play it anyway cause i will never play another MMO made by SE while i enjoyed FFXI it focused tooo much on repeating the same stuff X10000.

but if you listen and make the trails relative then i'll prolly be playing FFXI for 2-3 more years to make more relic/mythic/emps since they don't take 1-2 years to get 99 (stage 1)
