    Relics/Mythics/Empy?

    I could have sworn SE already stated that Rune Fencer will not be receiving prior relics/mythics/empy's. Can anyone confirm this?

    Also, if this is true, I wonder if the Borealis will be equippable by the Rune Fencer.

    I can confirm for you that neither Geomancer nor Rune Fencer will get any of the previously released Mythics. >.>

    EDIT: and if they get added to relics, there'll be riots.

    I thought they said definitely not relics, probably not empyreans, but Mythics were still on the shelf?

    Read this carefully:

    Neither rune fencer nor geomancer will not be added to any currently existing Mythic weapons.

    I thought geomancer will be using a different kind of weapon, like a bell. I guess that could be his ammo item instead like Bard.

    Bells are basically clubs with different models. There are already bells in the game, they're just xmas event items.

    OT:

    They won't be added to relics, because no job from ToAU and beyond has been added to relics, only recieved AF2 armor.

    Empyreans, I forget where but around these forums devs mentioned that these 2 jobs will not have magian weapons. Empyreans are still at their core, created through magian trials. They could always change their mind on this decision... kinda hoping they do, magian trials was one of the best systems for creating good weapons, no matter how mind numbing they were to complete. The success of the system doesn't lie.

    Mythics: the new jobs (SCH and DNC in this case) have gotten Mythic weapons. They weren't added to existing equipment, they had their own created for them (hence Ziyygo's statement of not being added to current mythics). With Mythics comes Mythic WS's as well, so unless SE breaks trend there is some ToAU work to be done.

    I wouldn't be surprised to see a new form of super weapon come from Seekers though, so that RNF and GEO aren't stuck with mythics as being their only option. Would probably have to add some more weapons for the rest of the classes as well so as to entice the playerbase into doing the content. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that content designed for only 2 jobs to benefit is bound to fail.

    Rune and Geo will get no Emp or Relic weapons, however they will be receiving their own unique Mythic weapons. The reasons are because Relics and Emps were balanced for the jobs available at the time of release, however, Mythics are tuned to each specific job, thus they can make Mythics for RUN and GEO without any potential balance issues that may effect other jobs, where as Relics and Emps would have the potential to be over powered, and could cause weapons to be nerfed due to the jobs being added to them.

    Do you have a source for this info? I only ask because I clearly remember SE explaining that they would get no Emp/Relic weapons and the reasons behind it many times. It was a cause of great annoyance at the time of announcement as well.
