Shadowbringers Relic Weapon Prediction

I'm actually ok with the shared FATES thing. I don't mind them as much mainly because most of them are in current maps compared to use having to go back and do 1-50 fates in older areas. They usually go quick with 3-4 other players doing them with you.

I keep speculating that after the Empty is restored, they're going to use that land as another version of Eureka and they'll most likey have some kind of relic grind there as well.

I suspect it will involve the Gerolt counterpart on the first. He's in the Tempest so he might come across something in Amaurot. Maybe a device that takes a user's imagination/thoughts and turns it into reality when fed enough aether. So he surmise that we can use this technology to synthesize a powerful weapon based on our memories/fights etc. Gives us some kind of tool that records our battles (think like Light farming) and have to do a bunch of SB content like with the Anima weapons. Trade items from beast tribes and gathering etc like the Umbral sands and unidentified step. Basically grinding out things.

Thought I heard they were bringing back the Diadem for something? Had assumed it had something to do with the relic.

Help AU!Gerolt try futilely to get out of debt from AU!Rowena.

Then again, considering how the Beast Tribes are much more hospitable with people on the First and an indication of a different type of status quo, maybe we'll see a chance of his situation actually improving or even being different from what we've come to expect!

Run SB 24 mans to get a 5% drop item from each of them. :rolleyes:

Rare item drops from Norvrandt FATEs, that only drop when level 80 AND rank 3 for all shared FATE zones. 50 drops buys you the item that you will imbue to become the first stage of the weapon, and then it starts to get grindy.

I dont think it will be ready in 5.1, probably 5.15 or pushed back to 5.2

I just hope its not tied to Eureka style content.

I just hope for a cool design, ARR Relics was cool, all of them, in HW some Relics was cool but there's some ugly weapons as well, in SB ALL Relics qas ugly af. It's like the design is going down hill for each Expansion, i don't know if it's even possible to make something uglier than SB but i hope not.

Sorry but I think many of the Eureka weapons are really nice. To each their own. SAM, Pally, RDM, WHM and others are pretty sweet in my view.

For real though, I'm convinced they're gonna do something with Shared FATEs to get people doing them and unlocking the Eulmore/Crystarium vendor. Fun.

What an optimistic outlook.

That being said, they wont be DoA typically. Yes savage iwll be better but Relic weapons typically were the casual equivilant. Something you could get through sheer 'brute force'. It's fine the way they are.
