3.25 release date March 29th?

I doubt it. Yoshi already said that having the relic melding and then becoming BiS over the raid weapons was an oversight on their part. Since we can meld 220+ Gear, I'm guessing next upgrade will let you meld materias, and on 230/240 it will be dyeable.

This! Im tired of being broke because of those bullshit lol

The relic is really mediocre this time around. I understand not making it as strong as raid weapons. The length of the grind is just not worth it.

Unless you're a SCH, in which case it's the only crit weapon outside of Savage raids, thus being BiS when compared to weapons of the same ilevel.

I do a decent job of keeping up with interviews and the like, but I didn't see him say this specifically. Any idea where he did?

At this point, I actually think we'll see 3.25 6 weeks after the patch, though, if they follow the trend of the initial Anima step in 3.1 being relatively "easy." 230 weapons will be available for the first time for non-raiders after 7 weeks with Midan Gears/Lore, and I suspect the i230 Anima weapon would be obtainable right around the same time frame. It's possible the first step might give us a i220 weapon, though, with the next step being i230 and taking a couple weeks.

I think, we will see the return of the Desynthesis, meld materia and maybe skin map.

Well... it would be nice to have an announcement soon before all the Relic owners shell out their Lore for a wep.

they will wait until u all have lore weapons .....and u know it!

I absolutely hate this part of the relic. So much grind for a useless weapon in most cases.

Dunno what ya'll are talking about useless. My WAR weapon is great.

Accuracy is... nice... for some of you...
