Relic armor?

While there might be some details of how it's done that not all agree with... I really like the concept of the relic weapon quest. A weapon you customize, and upgrade as time goes on to keep it current.

Could we get relic armor (and accessories?) that does this also?

It'd be a great solution for the crappy stat distribution on some of what we have. xD

Seriously, why are parry/skill speed pieces a thing? :x

Uh.. not if it's another huge time grind like the weapons. I don't even know how people survive doing more than 1 relic zeta. Having to do something similar for every armor piece, no thank you.

However, if it were instead an actual quest for each piece that actually had you fight difficult unique monsters and/or solve a puzzle while engaging in an actual interesting story as to how you went about obtaining them then I would be totally down for something like that.

Added: Hopefully what I suggested is how we obtain our AF2 in 3.0.

I think this is a neat idea, I'd personally be up for it.

It could be like a diet version of the zodiac weapons, or a strong 1 on 1 fight to get the piece know your job

Its a good idea but i cant get on board with it, a weapon is one thing but one of the main points of an MMORPG is to grind out gear through content. I personally would think it would take out a huge part of the game if you could just get an ultimate armor set by grinding fates and other boring things.

ffxi has allowed upgrading of original af to max level, I would love to see this as well one day.

all gear becomes obsolete in time including the latest raid gear.. to have af upgrade again one day could be enjoyable.

Not gonna happen.
See 2.0 relic and people crying about literally every step related to combat being too hard. (ifrit, garuda, titan, hydra, chimera)

Ifrit, Garuda, Titan, Hydra, chimera..... the only part of the relict quest that was fun to do

we get AF2 in 3.0

I rather have more choices in what kind of armor we can get rather than being railroaded into having only one relic weapon and one relic set of armor that makes getting anything else a waste of time.
