It's an option you can ignore.
The same you can also say about the 2.0 relic quests, with doing Coil over and over and over again to farm light

If you like the fixed secondary stats

45/80, 0/4 HQ items, 7 Oils... I was hoping for a nerf on this step in this patch but looks like there will be none...

I only now started with Vanu Vanu and Gnath beast tribes...hoping it makes it a bit faster..

Added my Hyperconductive Gandiva this week after getting my 5th oil. It joins my Hyperconductive Majestas, Deneb and Hyergelmir. I'm looking forward now to see what the next stage of the relic brings to the table, hopefully it won't be too painful. lol

So far, the HW relic grind has been the most punishing yet. By this time, I would have had 3 relics done yet I am still only 78/80 and have 3/4 of the crafted items (yea for material shortages). At this point, I don't know which class to go after as I turned in my previous 3 relics.

I wish they would have made the whole relic quest easier so I could have got it for multiple jobs but alas... they are still stuck in the "Hard is Fun!" mentality.

At least for step 2 they pulled their heads somewhat out of their ass and brought interest back to Crystal Tower; but that first grind is nauseating and shows the devs to be remarkably lazy in its concern.

It's not laziness but simple practicality. You may be bored to death of Alex, however there are plenty of new players who haven't even reached it yet. Content like this is designed specifically to keep people doing old content all while getting rewarded for doing so.

Only 4 more unidentifiables and tben I will FINALLY get my hyperconductive anima weapon!!! Yay for me!

I would take the books any day compared to this!

Got my enchanted rubber last week. At 14 shells, 17 ores, 10 seeds. Already have the crafted items and all 5 oils. I am still dying inside. Someone please save me.

Finished my Hyperconductive Nothung Monday over all it wasn't some huge over the top grind people are making it out too be.

Doing just basic duty roulette every day for just the eso bonus is 13,200 tomes in a month this isn't even counting dungeon tome amounts or any bonus.

13,000 eso is just about the perfect amount for 20 uni items.
