I hope I'm wrong, but the Zodiac weapon quests..

Sound dangerously like just a couple of dungeons. I really hope that's not all it is.

Especially "Trial of the Braves". Just sounds like some kind of boss fight. Meh.

Yoshi has allready said they involve rare drop items.

I hope the rare drop isn't from a boss that we're expected to kill 500 times. That's not fun.

I may be wrong but by looking at the patch notes it looks like they change from Zenith to "Animus" and "Atma". The Zodiac Weapons. And I'm assuming the weapons that are 110 are the one's you obtain from the tomes of soldiery.

So long as they don't involve farming Primal Ex kills while server-side hit detection is still in place, I'm happy.

Garuda Ex is the upper limit of what's possible with my lag. Titan Ex is just simply unplayable, not due to skill/pattern memorisation, but simply due to latency between my client and the server due to my ISP doing traffic shaping, and I refuse to pay $15/month just for the "chance" at making this game playable in extreme Primals.

Of course, given the pattern of how this game has gone so far for the better equipment, it will be something just like that. You only get the chance at the good stuff if you are lucky enough to live on the same continent as the servers, and/or are willing to pay for something like WTFast, on top of the existing subscription fee.

Eh... I'll be happy/fine if the new relic weapons require em kills and some silly run back-and-fourth quests. Hopefully it's not RNG based because I have terrible luck. I may never, ever get my weapon if that's the case. lol

Oddly enough however, this was HIGHLY requested.

People wanted something similar to how content used to work where long-term progression would be needed.
So this would be the herald back to that old content.

I want long-term progression. Just not in the form of killing the same boss a million times.

Long-term progression, not praying to the RNG.

People think the game is too easy. Put in extreme primals.
People think game is too hard. Put in echo.
People think game is too easy. Put in difficult quests.
