What's the point?

My favorite part is how afterglows do not stack with and are overwritten by aftermaths, so you most likely can't even use the afterglow to help the friends who got it for you.

I guess if you're selfish enough to abuse your friends to get 250 marrows just for you it clearly means that you don't care about getting them any relic weapons of their own, so they won't have any Aftermath to overwrite it with. Maybe that was the point SE was trying to make? Afterglow as a consolation price for all the pour souls slaving away for the one guy with his shiny weapon.

/sigh... Why am I not actually surprised.

How do you test them on the test server btw? I am on the server but never could find a way to test Afterglow sadly.

What you need to do is find the trial number of the weapon 99+, then search that number at the trial moogle. It will give you a option of keeping the weapon.

Wow, didnt know that... thanks

I see the 99 +1 empyrean weapon as a trophy item, nothing else. The actual glow is kinda cool!

Yeah, because then we know exactly who to point and laugh at.

When it comes to the 99+ versions of emps, mythics, or emps.

Just wanted to point out, you might want to fix that error :x

Thank you ^^

Have +HQs ever really been worth it? Sure for people who could afford/obtain it. But for the vast majority, +1 gear is very overrated, minor boosts, the same for Relic/Mythic/Emp 99 afterglow. aka +1

I am of the belief that every game (single player, MMO, or otherwise) should always have nigh unobtainable gear and unkillable bosses, in addition to real gear/fights.
A players growth should never be limited by the game itself. You may have to move Heaven and Earth to get the gear/ win the fights, but the option should always be availible.
