So... poof! Now your REMs have iLv119!
It's equally good and bad... but mostly good because if you have a 99/99-2... you don't have to do anything...
And if you don't... now there's more incentive to team up with others.
You sure about that?

To upgrade them we will not be making a new Trial of the Magians, and we'll be making adjustments so that certain content is not overcrowded for this by having multiple ways to obtain the items you need to upgrade these weapons.
Sure makes it sound like there's going to be an item required. The other way to interpret it is that they are adjusting VW, Dynamis, and PW somehow to make it easier to obtain the level 99 version.
