why no mention of r/e/m

[pretre]

is it REALLY that hard to type out the word why instead of just using the letter y? after all the time gil i have spent on the relics i have my decision to keep at the game will hinge on how they handle this. lose me lose 3 accounts and i'm sure there are plenty like me.

I agree and disagree, I think lots and lots of people will decide to quit or not on how the r/e/m issue will be handled, I think most of those are only still paying for this game because the are just hoping the dev team will see sense even though they said r/e/m not gunna be on top, we just gunna quit once they ruined them on the game not just the forum.
also I think its very hard to type the full words, y u pickin on my grammers?

No it's not. That's just an excuse for being lazy.

While everyone complains about the majority of players having RME and being upset about it not always being the best is confusing to me, i see more people without then with so how can it be such a large scale playerbase problem?

Personally there are so many more issue's to be addressed then to appease the small amount player base who demands a one time effort for always the best.

There is always a best, the thing is, those were often close to one another at the same level. People not taking a Bravura because its not an Ukon is simply being picky, its like if I said I would not take a Apoc DRK because they were not a Rag DRK, the level of power is not far off, and it has Accuracy, Apoc has Haste while Bravura has DT as an advantage.

So what you're saying is you prefer "flavor of the month" to "Flavor of the Month"? People got ragnarok because of resolution. Before resolution, ragnarok was crap. People got verethragna because crit WSs were where it was at. But if enough monsters with crit resist were introduced, verethragna would be poop and people would want spharai instead. Keep in mind, this is all before SoA. Conditions in the game would change, then a new weapon becomes the flavor of the month because it handles those conditions better than any other weapon.

What we have now instead of RMEs (which not everyone can obtain yet) is delve megaboss weapons (which not everyone can obtain yet). We also have normal delve weapons (which most, but not all people are willing to obtain) instead of 99 magian weapons (which most, but not all people are willing to obtain). We also have skirmish weapons (for people trying to get up to the point where they can get delve weapons), instead of.............................. nothing. We also have bayld gear (for people trying to get up to the point where they can get skirmish, naakual, or delve gear), instead of.... nothing again. We also have every other freaking piece of gear which has ever existed. And you're trying to tell me weapon variety has decreased? On what grounds?

What I am saying is they were close in worth, there was every reason for someone to get Ragnarok to cap out damage, there was also every reason for a DRK to make an Apoc for great survivability. There was veritiy between these two because they did different things for the job really. What do you think of the new Scythe? Huh? Please tell me, because to me, it seems that its trash. To me, it looks like the GS is all that matters for DRK atm. What about WAR? The only thing for WAR is Bloodbath or Razor, what was it like before? Ragnarok for non Crit, Ukon for Crit, Bravura for Defense, oh look, verity, changes, not everyone being the exact same way in every single event. There was a reason to make one weapon over another, but most had a reason to be made, now, all of it is a single weapon at the top, no utility weapons up there, utility weapons are all half DMG, worthless and wasted by compare.

RME doesn't NEED to be the top of the food chain, they should be usable weapons, but if they are the top which cannot be adjusted, there will only ever be side grades for 90% of future equipment. Personally, I'd rather have future equipment minimize the amount of things I carry to play certain jobs like RDM, SCH, BLU and PLD as they're all 78/80 in gear alone at the moment.

[Demon6324236]

RME does need to be the top, because they all take much longer than any other thing in the game. Why would someone go out to get a RME when they can get another weapon much faster or easier that is tied or better than them? Side grades in gear can be sidestepped by making gear that's actually good, putting more stats on single pieces to condense them down and make our inventories lighter. These things can be done to keep rewards relevant if they only did it, but to simply make weapons better than RMEs when they take so long is not acceptable, its the reason why half the Mythics are only made by the most die hard of people. Did you know that only Kincard and 1 other person have a Nagi listed on AH.com? You know why? Worthless weapon, always has been, probably will always be, and yet, they made it because of a love for the job probably, outside of that, its trash, and that's how all RME would become if they were not the top.

what's to say that the requirements won't get easier for them once they come out with something that takes roughly as long as a mythic to make? Also, it will kind of only be front line Mythics, emps and non utility relics (ragnawagon, etc) that will be usurped. if you think there's something that can replace a yagrush or carnwenhan, kenkonken burtgang or any other utility weapon i'm forgetting, please, do tell.
