Feedback Regarding the Relic Upgrade Quest

[Tano]

Looks like you're calling everyone bitching about not getting these ATMAs retards, so nice of you.

Can't think of a reason different from vanity to get them. And I think that if you spend 225 hours for a vanity weapon you are a retard. My opinion man, but to be honest I believe it could even be diagnosed.

Leviathan weapons are just as strong as Relic"+4", and probably High Allagan are even easier to get if you have a good group (and they are 15 levels above). Pretty sure that even pugging would require less than 225 hours of effort.

Start doing it and look at next expansion to come just before you finish farming for it, introducing ilv 200 weapons. I could justify you if this quest was at least fun, but it isn't.

I guess I'll have to pick a favorite relic to focus in on...

That being said, I'd rather have the myth armor sets for most of my alts even if just for pure looks, so it'll be taking a back seat for a while anyway. Something to do, woo!

I think you are misunderstanding something. The devs have said that they plan on incrementally improving the Zodiak weapons in the next few patches (including possible customizable stats). The reason to do the quest now is to prepare for future content. The other options are only faster if you have bad luck, and you are able to clear the content (they are much harder). The Zodiak weapons are an alternative to these to allow players of different skill levels the ability to see new content. They may not be as efficient, and will take a much longer time than people who were able to farm higher lvl content, but they have a chance of doing it.

Meh, it's not like Mythology tomes have a weekly cap anymore, so it's not really that bad. They should be about as easy to come by as philo tomes used to be, and it was generally quite easy to accrue boatloads of those.

That's what the High Allagan weapons are for.
Relics, even in the predecessor FFXI, were never hard to get.
Time consuming, yes, hard, no.

FFXI relics weren't just time consuming, you still need to kill the Animated Weapons, it's just that anyone who can gather the currency is likely also in a Dynamis/HNM LS that can get do it for them. it's not AV or even Dynamis Lord but it's not a joke that you can solo either.

Titan HM wasn't a joke neither for alot of people, what's your point?

Titan HM has nothing to do with this quest, and it wasn't a joke to anyone who did it the first time unless they got carried.

my point was that it's incorrect to compare this quest chain to the FFXI relic quest chain.

Just go buy a Leviathan win.

or just fight him?

This post stinks to high heaven of "I want it now".

Jog it on son.

Shouldn't you be busy uninstalling the game instead of calling everyone retards?
