    Doesn't matter how much they increase it nobody will do Einherjar so long as everything that drops from it is obsolete.

    Untill Abyssea Dancing Edge and Shark Bite (and on high DEF mobs Mandalic Stab) were better than Evisceration and Mercy Stroke was the destroyer of worlds.

To do otherwise makes them obsolete and not desired. NO ONE will pursue the Infinity Minus One Sword when the Infinity Plus One Sword is easier to get.

    As for your statement about the relic / mythic WS's, what are you smoking? Before abysea was ever announced crit WS's were considered the best for each weapon class. Vorpal on sword, Rampage on axe, Raging Rush on GAXE, Drakesbane on PLM, Hexa on Club, A.Fury on H2H. And now the non-crit Emp WS's crush their counterparts. Fudo beats Kaiten and Gekko and so forth. Only the magic WS ones remain and their situational use with some of them being amazing.
    Again Relic and Mythic are 2 different weapons. The ONLY similarity is that they are both extremely hard to get. They are made for the hardcore players. They should be left hard to get, but need a buff in what they do. They should only make certain parts of getting a mythic easier due to most of the events to get Mythic are dead, or are annoying to do. The buff should make them on par to empyreans, or better. But ill leave that to SE to do.

    As for WSs, take a look at the ones you mentioned. The bulk of them have the advantage of being a multi-hit WS, which will usually put out better damage then Single hit WSs. As for Drakesbane, while Polearm does have penta, its TP modifier is acc which is seen as less useful then a Crit. So of course Drakesbane is better. Not to mention the stat modifiers on Drakesbane is better then Penta too. As for A.Fury, it was actually WORSE then Asuran Fists. Even now, Asuran Fists is better then A.Fury OUTSIDE of abyssea. And for Fudo and Kaiten, Fudo beats it by a slim margin. So its not totally overpowering Kaiten.

    That is true, but with the next update allowing you to augment certain old equipment, it MIGHT see a revival. And if it doesn't, increasing it could let some small groups go in and kill a few mobs to get some Ichor. Id rather see a revival of Einherhar because of the ability to augment gear, but we will just have to wait and see.
