Allagan Gear getting buffed to ilvl95.

[Duuude007]

sorry dude that is a false information.

Checked with Yoshida-san.

While relic weapons are currently the most powerful, when we release weapons stronger than them, we plan on making it possible to enhance relic weapons. So with that said, keeping relic weapons as a base, we'll look into enhancements so that their stats can catch up to others if they lag behind.

Exactly HOW false is false?

If Relic +1 is not functionally equal to the best dungeon gear (i95), then based on this design the alternative is that a Relic +1 will be upgraded again to i95.

Then what is the point of any weapons ever being added again? You can get relic+1 before even taking a foot into coil, RAID not dungeon gear should within reason have the best gear available for most if not all slots for DoW/DoM.

They are far to easy to get for ilvl they are, im also pretty sure your quoting a dev who made a statement prior to the statement made in the liveletter that relics are far too common and they are not happy with it. Why would they then do a 180 and proceed to make them top tier again?

Again suggests that they are changing the design twice.

Q56: Will the extreme primal battles be part of the main story and/or be tied with the relic quest?

A56: Yes.

..because maybe, just maybe, it never WAS a 180, and that highest relic tier was always designed to be functionally equal to the best dungeon weapons.

How about you base your reasoning on current statements. Live Letter X clearly stated that the reason for Allagan weapons to be upped to itemlvl95 is cause the effort it takes to get them should resemble in their itemlvl which is why they are upped to 95. Relic+1 was never part of this and IF they would upgrade Relic+1 as well this would make the whole reasoning behind it completely void.

Also...they already said there is gonna be a Questchain for Extreme Primals that will reward a itemlvl90 weapon...the question indicated that it has a story behind it...why would they reward a itemlvl90 weapon at the end, when it's used to upgrade your Relic+1 to itemlvl95...logic...common sense...

To any reasonable person it should be out of the question that Relic+1 stays itemlvl90.
