RME upgrading...

[FaeQueenCory]

Well then why complaining if you are ok with a weapon that is slighly worse than RME ? The main avantage I see with the current game is that new players are not left out while old players are not left out either. At the same time there is still a hierarchy between weapons, which is necessary in an MMO. Math say for instance that spharai and vere are roughly 5% better damage than oat. For some it's too little to be worth it. Ok. For other more dedicated people, they will have to upgrade it through a process that is not really tedious unlike what has been said (I'm already 113/300 after 6-7 hours of doing delve 6-man style, someone that plays serisouly every day will probably need 2 to 3 weeks only).
The only thing I regret is that there is a gap for empy between the level 90 ones and 119 ones, because only a couple of players per server can make it to 95 and 99 due to the supply of voidwatch mats.

My MNK is 50.

I have no Oats.

And I think the WS bonus alone is worth the work it takes to 99->119 a REM.

But it's just as you said.
It's not just this one thing that needs to be done.
There's more to the REMs than just this 99->119 totes-not-a-magian-trial.

I'm not really complaining... Because the difference between Oats and the H2H REMs doesn't affect me in the slightest.

Though I suppose I am complaining about one thing... The virtual requirement to do Delve with this.
The beauty of the REMs is that there were multiple paths that suited the player's tastes to a "best weapon."
And having other 119 weapons opens up more people to being able to play with "the best."

But I do not like the funneling everything through Delve... which, is the only feasible, realistic way to get these items.
At least until they add more ways or even drastically lower the 300 requirement.

I do not enjoy Delve.
It is not a fun endgame event for me.
For others it is.
But those same other who enjoy Delve may hate Dynamis, which I love.
And the way the REMs were before was that Mythics and Empys didn't require you to ever even look at Dynamis.
And that's what I would like here.
Instead it's currently the difference between farming in Dreamworld Dynamis or farming in regular dynamis... "farm them in WKRs if you don't like Delve"... Except you'd have to be really dumb to think that those are two equally viable farm outlets.
It's why you, Markovchain, have achieved so much so quickly.

If they lessen the #: "well you have to do more Delve... but at least you don't have to do a LOT more... good."
If they add more to other places: "good. now I don't have to do more Delve."
Heck, even emulating the previous model by making the relic stone drop in Dynamis areas, the Mythic drop off of VNMs, and the empy drop off of Abbyssea/VW NMs...
Where it might be fastest to grind delve... but there are other viable alternates...
That's all I'm wanting.
More options to make it so that more people can get to the same standing in more ways.

1. Find the “orange” Magian Moogle.
2. List available trials.
3. Select any weapon type.
4. Check the trials in the bottom of the list.

Bluh... XP
I hate trudging through those menus... Was hoping for a quick and easy "yes, they are there #s X-X" or w/e.
