WHERE DO I GET THIS. SERIOUSLY.
I was pretty excited to see that also.
since it's ilevel 90 i'm going to assume it's the counterpart to the extreme mode primal weapon
Wait a second... the DRG is getting the Onion set... whats up with this shield...?
It's actually really good, better than Holy Shield Zenith I think, perhaps even Allagan Round Shield. I'm glad there is finally a shield that doesn't have the same Block Rate and Strength, we need more small shields and tower shields.
This might be the Extreme Primal weapon (where you get Break Blade + this)
If so, this will be my first. I don't even want the sword, just the shield.
It's from the extreme primal fights. Too bad the sword is crap! Although I'm glad they have given WAR a decent axe before Allagan!
It's weird that Onion equipment is LNC/DRG Crystal Tower gear, yet this shield exists. Maybe this heralds a Tank Lancer class! *dodges potential bricks*
judging by the quest rewards, it looks like you'll be able to get 3 weapons when finishing the quest

Since it's called Onion it makes me think that it will be a drop from Crystal Tower as they were the strongest equipment for the strongest job in FFIII, but it's IL90. Maybe Crystal Tower can drop a some IL90 shields?
What about the mage shields (Ancient Buckler etc)? Maybe from CT as well
It's probably from CT. It looks more design-wise to with the Warrior of Light set. Dunno why they called it Onion, though.
Oh no... Looking at that quest line and prerequisites, I get the impression that you have to beat Turn 5 before you can do Extreme Primals. Did I just miss that being mentioned earlier? I haven't been coiling hard enough...
EDIT: Nevermind, I got confused by the branching quests. Phew!
No weirder than Mists. You have to buy three per relic, except for PLD, which needs two for Curtana and one for the Holy Shield.
I think Break Blade will be a better offtank sword (especially turn 5), and also for those who haven't bought +1 relic
Highly doubt it, I think it will be turn 1-4 kind of difficulty. The only requirement to enter is hard primals and average IL70.
Besides, turn 5 drops IL95 weapons.
I think it will be from the EM as the companion to the break blade. The naming of it just goes with the recurring theme of all the Rowena Token/EM Primal weapons being named after FF3 Eureka/Maze of the Ancient weapons. I'm guessing that lore-wise these weapons will have been "excavated" by/sold to Rowena with the opening of the Crystal Tower.
My question is, why 3 tokens? One for each primal? But the REWARD is 3 tokens, not a turn in requirement.
Which has me wondering if you really do get 3 tokens for turn in. Which would let us buy 3 weapons, but 3 ilvl90 weapons in one week is crazy. May as well just make it one token as a reward and turn in one token for a weapon. Making 3 tokens needed to buy one weapon seems silly.
Which makes me wonder about the token drops from then primals if any. Is it just a repeatable quest each week? Or do you get a token per primal as a turn in requirement? Or maybe if you only kill 2 primals in the one week you get 2 tokens by which you would need to kill one the next week for the 3rd to buy your weapon. I don't get the feeling the actual quest gets reset each week, only primal access. Which would meran if you are good enough to clear all 3 primals in one week you get a weapon each week. If not, you are delayed since you didn't kill all 3 in one reset period. That's my theory anyway.
dude it isn't hard to understand.
1 token for each primal slain. turn in 3 tokens for one item level 90 weapon.
it's so easy to understand. why are you having problems understanding this lol
I get what you are saying. Each primal drops a token and you would get 3 in total and turn them in for a weapon.
What I'm trying to understand is why does the QUEST REWARD give you 3 tokens for defeating the 3 primals? Why not turn in the 3 primal drops for 1 quest reward for a weapon turn in for the week? I can't get past why the weapons would cost 3 tokens if this is true. My only guess is you can only get a max of 3 a week, but you can turn in 1 or 2 before the reset and accumulate the 3rd the next week if the 3rd primal eludes you. Which would justify them costing 3 tokens from Rowena to purchase.
It's the same as the relic quest, you get 1 "token" from each primal then turn them in as part of that for 1 relic. You're thinking too hard about it.
Thinking way too hard about it .... Lol.
How about this? 1 token for the shield, 2 tokens for the sword..... 3 tokens for any other weapon that doesn't have a shield.
Is that a good explanation as to why there are 3 tokens as a reward?
Meh you guys are probably right.
I'm just bored, and when I'm bored I over-think things >.>
This is not the same thing at all, people seem to be missing Rowan's point. The tokens for the weapon are not the same as the quest item from the primals.
imark's comment is likely the correct explanation, it's how they did the +1 upgrade in regards to the 300myth item.
