Don't get me wrong, I get the whole job dedication thing and the like and have major respect for the people that are still willing to make them under the current circumstances.
But in my opinion when you want to make a top weapon Empyrian is not worth its pricetag when you compare the actual weapon to its alternatives.
An Empyrian is a pure DD weapon which offers nothing else in the form of utility but at this moment comes at a pricetag that exceeds even that of what for many jobs is considered the best weapon in game by most people.
