Giving High Quality items to Gerolt?

Does giving Gerolt a high quality weapon get you a higher quality relic weapon than if you give him a normal one?

Also when you do the relic +1 upgrade, does the weapon lose any extra gain from high quality if any?

nope, it doesn't..or I think it doesn't. Didn't change anything when I turned in my HQ item to Gerolt..

An hq weapon trade in doesnt have any affect on the quality of the relic. With that said I've made several weapons for friends and for sale and i hq'd them as i take pride in what i make.

Unfortunately there is no "bonus" to trading a HQ weapon to the drunkard. Can you imagine the market for HQ base weapons if that were the case!

Sadly it isn't, they aren't even worth trading in for leves anymore either since the nerf.

Excuse me? I think the difference between a 67,146 reward and a 134,292 reward are most definitely worth the trouble.

Ok, scuse meh. They still reward well, but not like it used to. that 134k used to be 210-222k. That's all I'm saying.

Waaait wait wait what guildleves are we talking about?

Actually you're wrong. Leves used to give triple xp on a HQ handin, but they gave less base xp. They actually give more now with double on HQ, maybe with the exception of triple turnins.

He accepts it regardless, and quality makes no difference. Relics don't have qualities, they only have tiers (normal, Zenith, Atma, Animus, Novus, etc.).

Nope, triple turn ins are awful now.For crating and turning in 9 hqs I got about 10% more xp then just turning in 1 item.

That's what I thought. Been a while since I have lvl'd a crafter though so not sure.

Dat desynth doe...

Ugh, I just realized after all this time that everyone was talking about XP, not gil lol

This is wrong.

They have doubled BASE xp per leve and cut the HQ bonus from triple to double. What this means is:
50k base + HQ turn in (3x) = 150k pre-adjustment
50k base + levequest adjustment = 100k + HQ turn in (2x) = 200k

You're getting more xp now than you were before.
