Relics are too easy to get

[mythicrose]

It's not easy until 90% of the DF groups (all complete randoms) clear hardmode Titan in a single shot like Ifrit and Grauda. If anything, it's the relic +1 that is too easy.

^^This.

Not all of us paid for their clears or had FC's that could rally up a fully geared and knowledgeable party. Alot of us had to learn every fight from the ground up.

Took me a while to learn Ifrit on my own. Lots of parties with other people that were learning...lots of wipes.
Took me a while to get a competent party for Chimera and to learn the mechanics.
The Garuda fight was easier for me because I actually did have my FC walk me through it.
Titan I haven't attempted yet because I'd like to gear up for it. Regardless of whether I absolutely need to or not, I like to do my part in being at least moderately equipped for the task I'm about to participate in. I'm already on the 2nd week of gearing.

Getting my relic will feel accomplishing to ME because I had to put effort into it. Those that are saying it's easy are MMO prodigys, bought their way through their fights, had an FC help them throughout, got extremely lucky, or any combination of those.

It might be nice if some of you elaborate on what could be changed to make it more difficult/challenging/rewarding/exclusive etc. Cuz right now all I see is a bunch of subjective comments rating "difficulty" based on the resources people had available to them for their relic quest.

Love your comment. All I see here are a bunch of elitist/pro gamers that for one reason or another had it easy and now want to nerf the experience for the rest of us.

The game is out only for 2 months or so, Relic +1 is definitely not be the final weapon by a long shot.

Will you all feel better, if they change it's name to "Semi-Relic" because all I see is people that are unhappy that the majority of semi-hardcore and a few casuals are able to also get this "best" weapon.

Do you all need some outward status symbol to differentiate your elite status from the masses? Does not knowing that much of what other people consider hard is "easy" for you the pros not enough?

Maybe a Relic Pro weapon with more glittering special effects? That takes way longer to get, but gives the same stats or maybe abit more?

1) I would class myself more as a casual gamer as I only get to play 4 hours a day on a weekday

2) I'm not asking for Titan HM to be Nerf. Mind you as I haven't gone into Coils yet, I fear Titan HM is only the tip of the iceberg in difficultly, I mean Coil Turn 5 hasn't been done yet without exploit.

3) There does seam to be a lot of Jerks in the game (elitist) on the higher level content.

Me no.

Give SE time, they have already done this a number of times on FFXI
