Thats it. i know the other parts are a grind, but you work on them slowly, and its not only fates, but variety and stuff you do with people. Doing only fates is melting my mind atm and I am really really bored to the point where I am looseing motivation to log in at all. worst part is i am constantly solo on fate grinding, might as well just play a solo-RPG.
You don't need the relic though... just get an unidentified allagan tomestone weapon and upgrade it. If you want the relic badly enough, keep working toward it. You could even work toward it on the side while acquiring other weapons.
