There's no doubt that the original system for obtaining relic weapons was slightly broken and required a large number of people working together for months or even a year or more, for the goal of getting 1 person the best weapon (at the time) in the game. Once you have that Lv75 weapon now, the rest of it is just monotonous activity that you can do solo for the most part until the final 2 boosts which requires, once again, for you to bring together a group of people to devote their time so that just 1 person can get a weapon even stronger.

I want to see Relics return to the top tier. I don't own one yet, but the prize should equal the effort. Now, I would like to see a less exploitative method for obtaining them (which the new Dynamis system sounds like it will do a little bit), but in the end, 10+ months of work should give you a bigger reward than 2-3 weeks.

Maybe the higher levels should see an increase in the activation of the additional effect or maybe an increase in their potency as well as the potency of the weaponskill aftermaths?
