Any preview for the new Relics?

First we all thought the trailers showed us the weapons of the new relics, sadly this was only the esoteric gear. So SE, any preview to the relic weapons? :3

I'm wondering if that was the preview, and these Esoteric weapons are the prerequisite step.

@OP No previews yet. Maybe they'll show them off on that "14 hour stream" they're doing to celebrate the 2 year anniversary.

I doubt it. The upgrade items for the Eso gear is obtained in Alex savage isn't it? If they follow the same ideology as with the 2.0 relics it will be "Grind until your eyes bleed, but don't need to raid"

The upgrade mats will probably be added to the 24-man, which is coincidentally coming in 3.1. Same thing happened with CT.

They did say they would be showing off a preview of 3.1 at the anniversary event, probably during the Live Letter. I imagine we will likely see something then.

That, and/or they may add it later to the Allied/Centurio Seals vendors.
Who knows at this point.

Since I heard that DRK is slightly inspired by the Manga/Anime Berserk, I hope the AF will be Berserk inspired.
One can dream.

I wouldn't count on them following 2.x designs that much. It actually makes sense to base the new Relic on the Esoterics weapon, since most people would have the weapon by 3.1 unless they went out of their way to avoid it and keep using the hive weapon.

One word: Hunts.



But seriously starting with an Eso weapon at least sounds better than price gouged crafted weapons.

I would rather farm unnerfed Atma, again, than have any relic step tied to hunts. Just.. Can you imagine it?
