Well with new job being implanted down the line of the game gets older what happens when that new job is the one we want to make our new main and focus on for Relic? I just got my Novus and DRK has been rumored to be confirmed and I want DRK to be my Main *If it's a Tanking class. Do I have to start again for it or can I say transfer the Status of my Curtana Novus over to the DRk WPN and of course my Novus would reset back to it's starting state.
Relic weapons for New Jobs. Start over again or?

You start the entire quest over each time you want a relic. You still keep whatever relic/whatever stage they're currently on.

They'll ease the earlier steps eventually. I highly doubt they would allow a relic progression transfer.
If you want a new relic, you'll have to start it from scratch. -
10-19-2014, 11:01 PMCynricYep gotta start over. That's why we started getting our Atma, Alex, Materia, for Ninja earlier. Good luck but I don't see DRK being a tank.Quote:

The current relic weapon quests will probably end before the expansion and it's highly doubtful that the relics will even carry over into 3.0 content as more than a vanity item. There will probably be a new relic type weapon quest in 3.0.
You have to remember that expansions are often used as a clean start for new players joining with the new release. Having players join, level to 60 and then get forced to do lvl 50 content to catch up on their relic would NOT be taken well by new players. I just don't see the current relic quests continuing past 2.5. -

i'd like they make relic harder/longer to get but everyclass has it one step below your main.
ex : You get novus on your main. all your alts has animus -

If anything, the main "easing" I'd like to see for atma/alexandrites would be to remove the equipped weapon requirement for them to drop. Just let us unlock them, and then they drop from FATEs period so we can get exp if we like while farming them.

So while you may not get it a week after you hit 50 its not THAT bad of an issue.
Plus it may be a whole different quest line they introduce for these weapons and heck they may have a whole new generation of weapons that we need to build from scratch too. Its the nature of an mmo. -

I do not think they would scrap the concept of Relic come 3.0.. If they did that, what is the point in doing the line in the first place? Everyone might as well not bother. lol
-
10-20-2014, 01:36 AMAlberelThey said in a live letter months ago that the final form of the relics would alter skill animations, so it's fairly obvious they're intended to be a vanity thing to use as glamour once you're done. On top of that the very fact they've even discussed the 'final' form means they do plan for the current relic progression to end at some point soon.Quote:

10-20-2014, 01:39 AMApricothI suppose. Time will tell for sure what their final decision will be as they change their minds on various things... <sigh> I would love it if we could turn it in for a great starter weapon in the expansion!Quote:

No you have to start over it a new job, just like now if you switch jobs you have to do the stuff over again.

Idunno how they're gonna handle jobs native to Eorzea, but I've been saying for a while that jobs from different places should have different means of acquisition for their relics.

I wouldn't be surprised if the new 3.0 relics for the new classes were off the bat on par or close to on par with 2.0 final relics. Might still be difficult to get but I don't expect a huge grind.

10-20-2014, 02:46 AMReokudo
DRK wouldn't be a tank though.
-
10-20-2014, 05:31 AMMartin_ArcainessYeah but it's a job that I didn't have on the release date, a job that I could not choose as my main at the time of the games release.Quote:
