More Quests like Relic Reborn please!

This is by far the best quest in the entire game so far.

I have only Titan to kill (did it already once in a DF group btw) and then sadly all of this coolness will be over.

Please add more of these chained quests that take a long time to complete.
I really love how this quest differs from everything else in the way that you really need to put some effort into it and it takes time to do.

From all that I've been reading I'm NOT looking forward to the atma grind because it doesn't sound at all the same.

Anyway do you have any suggestions if there's more of these long quests in the game? What would you suggest SE does with the future of Relic weapon quests?

Personally I hope they evolve it with same kind of variety that spans multiple challenges and even using crafting to complete.

Have you done the Manderville quests? They are long chain quests that are absolutely hilarious!

Long? You can finish the quest in a single day, how exactly is that long? Atma, the thing you dislike takes a long time.

Or a few short hours depending on how the RNG rolls sadly...

Thanks for the suggestion I think that's what I'll be doing after Titan falls!
As a sidenote I leveled my blacksmith to 50 during this quest to complete the double melding part of the quest. Even so I couldn't have done everything else in a day.

Absolutely do the Hildibrand quests! They're an absolute blast, and end in a pretty awesome boss fight (and will be continued further in the future).

Either way, I do think the main Relic Reborn questline is one of the better ones in the game. Unfortunately I'll probably leave mine at Zenith unless the new upgrades introduce some unique content.

Hildibrand is absolutely the best and most hilarious part of the game and what I look most forward to with every patch. That said, I enjoyed the relic quest a lot as well (not so much the atma grind, been stuck on 8/12 for a week now).
The only thing that is missing is more lore. I would love for newer updates to require you to travel all around Eorzea to remote places one might miss and explain their significance. Also, trials in Dungeons like Hydra, really enjoyed that and hope for more.

No, the original quest to obtain your Relic is a very unique questline in this game and nothing else follows it at all. People are suggesting to you the Hildibrand quests (which are hilarious and absolutely worth experiencing), but if I am understanding you correctly I don't think it will satiate your need for a similar quest. The Hildibrand quest line is long, but it isn't one singular quest. It is a lot of short quests that all follow the same path. The relic quest gives you a multitude of different activities you need to do within the same quest, (finding your base, crafting (or buying) your precursor, melding (or, again, buying) the materia needed, farming 24 mobs, and 5 boss trials). Hildibrand has a lot of comedy infused into fetch, or go-here type quests with one very cool boss at the end of what we have so far.

I don't mean to dismiss what the others are saying, but I don't want you to get false hope. The relic quest is unique, and there really is no single quest in the game like it.

XIV 1.23 & XI had better quests.

you can do the quest line in like 2-3 hours. The reason it used to be long is the titan brick wall but was made easy now with echo.

The Animus quest, following the Atma portion of the Relic upgrade process, might suit what the OP is looking for. For this stage, you need to purchase nine books with Myth tomestones, and each book has a number of activities you need to perform (do these three dungeons, kill these 100 mobs, do those three FATEs, do those three Leves), similar in concept to the original Relic quest (kill this NM, do that dungeon, kill these 24 mobs, kill this NM, kill those three NMs).

Of course, the Animus books aren't quite the same. For the relic quest, you had specific reasons for doing each of these things (even if at times those reasons were kind of lame): kill the Chimera because you need the salts it has consumed, do the dungeon because you need to obtain a Glyph requires in exchange for a tome, kill the hydra because Gerolt is hoping it will eat you and then he won't have to work on your weapon. :P The Animus tomes don't have any "story" behind what you're doing; it's just a list of tasks.

Shortened. The relic quest is unique, and there really is no single quest in the game like it.

Okay thanks for clarifying. I get that a quest this great can't be a common one but to hear it's really the only one this involved is sad.
I hope the dev team can get future relic quests to this level of quality.
The only thing missing here is the story in relic reborn is sort of non-existent.

Yeah, I really wish they had done something like the original relic reborn questline to upgrade from the Zenith relic, instead of the tedious and painful FATE grinding they actually implemented.

Not just no, but hell no. Don't ever add anything like this ever again. Atma is just terrible. I didn't mind the first two portions of this quest but atma is stupid and animus sounds horribad.

I've spend more time on this ONE MAP farming this ONE ATMA than one of my FC members spent on the entire atma quest. This is such crap. I'm well over 300 fates and i'm not barely over half way.

Hey it's not like anyone in here is actually disagreeing with you but it seems you're mistaken what this thread is about.

You mean... Activate quest, buy or craft a ludicrously expensive weapon, spirit bind it to 100%, meld two expensive materia to it (which could result in go back to "buy expensive weapon"), Farm up 25k seals for a key item, then speed run several dungeons, after that get 9 drops from a participant amount locked event, that going by opinion at the time everyone hated, which had a drop rate that made atmas seem common? I'm not seeing the difference. Except of course no speed runs, front loading the RNG grind, and no chance of your weapon going KABOOM resetting all your progress.

It's about a quest line similar to the relic weapon and I completely disagree because there are parts of the relic quest line that make absolutely no sense at all. I'm not saying that I think the OP is asking for more weapons/armor with the EXACT same atma farming and/or quest line like relic. I'm saying don't do something as stupid as atma ever again.

Every time I hit 50 on a class, I manage to knock out the relic for it that night. It's really not long unless you can't afford the precursor weapon. Even Titan I've had good luck with and one-shot each time (or nearly one-shot).

Nobody is asking for atma farming in here. I thought that was already clear.

I think the Atma part is more like the original 1.0 relict quest (the hamlet defense part, but without the need to buy mats for milion gil to get into the top 3 supply ranking for better dropchance) then the ARR relict quest.

You didn't spiritbound the crafted weapon. First you put in the 2 needed materias, then you gave the weapon the NPC, then he told you to get 2 mats from AV and CC (17 minute speedrun for 100% chance or be happy with ~2% chance) and then he gave you the unfinished relict weapon and only the unfinished relict weaapon needed to be spiribound to 100%.
Your order is not correct
