Yoshi already said that the final form of the relic would be Excalibur in a live letter.

Unless you want to look fancy I see no reason to even go through the long process when the current primal weapon/top weapon from previous coil is almost as good as it. The work is not worth the reward. The grind of getting a relic is harder then beating the newest coil.

Grinding Garuda is harder than beating Bahamut?

This worries me a ton... The grinds we already get are bad enough, and they consider them perfectly fine. So for them to say 'it takes a long time' unless your a red bull fanatic, probably won't see this sword till its long outdated content. Long journey trials worked out in XI cause gear stayed relevant for a long time; in this game it doesn't take 3-4 months before there is a shiny new item.

No, you've got it out of context! The very line before that is "I couldn't believe my eyes... Was that the fabled...? How did she... "Debug commands!" she said."

The only problem I have with the sword is how wide it is. If a PLD sword is that wide, is the DRK weapon going to be the size of a surf board?

I know...it still seems silly to me though. If you had a second one you could use it as a shield.

Yeah, it irks me when something is called "more difficult" just because it requires a lot more time to complete. Tedium != Difficulty

To some people though, having more free time is much harder then going in and beating a raid in 30 mins. For people that have that stuff down on farm..well, yeah, its way easier. Just depends on each persons situation I suppose lol.
