Anima Relic

Hi,
I hate crafting, i find it extremely boring and painstaking...
If i understand things well, if i want to achieve the 3rd step of the "anima relic" quest I have to be lvl 60 in all crafting jobs (!!!!!)

I would have very much preferred farming a dungeon to get the stuff and not make it rely on crafting.

Is there a way to buy those HQ stuff ?
If i find a crafter, is this going to require him/her lot of work and time to provide me with the stuff ?

SE, that's not cool :'(

You don't need to have any DoH at 60. You can just buy it from the marketboard. Congratulations, you got your farming wish!

The items aren't hard to make. The ingredients aren't expensive or hard to get. If you don't craft, get the mats and then ask a friend or FC-mate to make it.

That's by far the easy part of that step, you know.

Personally, I'm waiting until they nerf the "Coming into its own" quest to a level that makes any sort of sense compared with the new quest, before continuing past i200. Sorry, farming over 54 THOUSAND esoterics and poetics is just insane.

Comparatively, the new step is only 9k tomes to complete, flat out, no crafting or other collecting nonsense. You can even do it faster by completing the old Crystal Tower climb quest.

I can deal with the collecting and the crafting SE, but make the progression sensible.

People always say this but they also conveniently fail to mention the fact that you can also get the items from all beast tribe dailies and treasure maps AND gordias

Unfortunate then, that it takes 20 days to max out ARR beast tribes from 0, Gordias is basically dead unless you form your own full party.

And treasure maps have crap drop rates.

Most annoying part would be FATEs. They didn't learn from Atma FATEs eh?

I feel like those that have every gatherer and crafter at 60 have a bit of a skewed perspective on the relative difficulty of the crafting step. Just saying.

There's only two parts of the third Anima step; the 16 crafted items and the 80 unidentifiable items. The crafted part really is the easiest here, unless you're saying gathering 80 items is easier than that.
