Relic Progression

Just wondering how's everyone's relic progression?
I have seen a person with 5 Relics so far coming from 3 months break and I just want to know how much behind I am.

1. Soul Without Life (Crystals) - Completed
- Had 2.0 Relic

2. Toughening Up (iLv200 Awoken) - Completed

3. Coming into Its Own (iLv210 Anima) - In Progress
- Token 1: [86.25%]
: Ore/Shell/Bone/Seeds: 17/17/18/17
- Token 2: [100%]
:Adamantite Francesca (HQ) Done
:Titanium Alloy Mirror (HQ) Done
:Dispelling Arrow (HQ) Done
:Kingcake (HQ) Done

4. Finding Your Voice (iLv230 Hyperconductive Anima) - In Progress
- Aether Oil: 3/5 [60%]

5. A Dream Fulfilled (ILv240 Reconditioned Anima) - Pending
- Collecting Crystal Sand and Umbrite - [0%]
- Create a catalyst, Treated Crystal Sand - [0%]
- Enhance the Anima with growth point - [0%]
: 0/240 Enhancement Done

Your not very far behind. If you keep going at it, you will have it finished long before the next step in patch 3.45.

Im @ 80/240 approx. on white mage relic.

You can get some crystal sand in advance if you farm leve Ambers from leve chests. 1 Leve Amber is 1 Crystal Sand and if you rush through a stack of 99 you may get 15 or more leve ambers.

>_> I still feel like crap from tossing 14 amber I had prior to the update. Figured "Eh, don't feel like holding these anymore, I've already got both songs" -.-

Sadly, still on the 210 step and been working on it since March? ish, doing all roulettes and all beast tribes daily, except maybe a weekend or two. 20/20/3/0

Umm. How come you have such low number for other two? are you focusing on particular tribe quest to complete that 1st?

Basically saying when you go Foundation you can pick up a Battlecraft leve and then you search the leve area for a chest which can spawn and you get 1 amber-encased vilekin in it you don't need to complete the leve to get the reward from the chest. If you don't see a chest cancel the leve and retry it and search again for the chest. I recommend the leve Don't Come Back very simple leve for chests because it just a straight line. In this leve the chest can spawn:

Under/next to the Yak your trying to guide
Near 2 enemies in front of the Yak
Can be near the hills in front of those 2 enemies i mentioned
The last spawn point is in the middle of the wolves on the other side of the hill


Edit: Here is a image of the path you want to go when you start the leve (its the black line at the bottom right corner of the map)

Once you get some from the chests you can go back to Idyllshire and trade 1 amber-encased vilekin for a Crystal Sand which is needed for the current step when you reach there. Hope this helps!

Also I have my new relic so I have done all the steps that have been released.

I'm currently at a Dream Fulfilled, and really only have to do the Esoteric farm for it. I cheated and bought a ton of Battle Demateria II before it jumped in price. I have "enough" to complete a relic even with the worst luck, and it was only ~3-400,000 gil. I imagine that I'll be able to sell my leftovers and get that amount back when I'm done. Doing the Ore/Shell/Bone/Seeds grind was probably the worst for this relic though, and I'm not going to make another one 'til it gets nerfed into the ground.

Esoteric farm for that portion is no joke though, since it's essentially anywhere between 96-160 Aetherochemical Research Facility runs.

102/240 towards my spear-with-a-face!

96/240 myself, but I have (as far as I know) 2 people in the FC that got their first ones done.

currently on 163/240 on my BRD bow

1) Soul Without Life (i170 Crystals) - [COMPLETED]

2) Toughening Up (i200 Awoken) - [COMPLETED]

3) Coming into Its Own (i210 Anima) - [COMPLETED]

4) Finding Your Voice (i230 Hyperconductive) - [COMPLETED]

5) A Dream Fulfilled (i240 Reconditioned) - [Work-in-Progress]
- Crystal Sands - [80/80]
- Umbrite Ores - [17/80]
- Growth Points: [51/240]

So far it's looking good! The i240 step is a very refreshing and welcoming pace from the i210. That was a really out of place step for the Anima Relic. However, it will be worth it when I get the customized stats done on my Relic and I'll finally use it! ^_^

The real question is "Who's not going Crit/Det + 5 points in speed?" regardless of what job you're doing this on?

I had 3 Zetas that were Crit/Det/Acc, and currently have 2 i230 relics (that 210 phase...) and I'm really just curious if this grind isn't just a giant hurdle so that people can have the "perfectly-statted" weapon (compared the the garbage we normally get from tomes or raid drops).

Update: Hyperconductive Nothung (Which i tamed and painted it green)

Anima Progress: 132/240

I'm at 131/240 for my accuracy SCH book.

Just a hint: make sure to allocate the stats as the moment you hit 120 allocated points you will see a short cutscene and after that whenever you turn Sand to Treated Sand you have chances on a bonus (up to 6 instead of only 3).

I have had no luck.... already got 6 umbrites after half way point and always +3...

I need 2 more umbrites to hit the half way point on my bow.
