Relics coming to an end?

[Stumpedify]

I always assumed that the relics would be converted into their new forms, ie: Curtana into Excalibur, then continue on upgrading from there in 3.0. So in Heavensward, PLD would be upgrading Excalibur rather than Curtana, but that means that the original curtana would still be required to progress the relic. Although it would seem like a whole new weapon. So yes, the Curtana relic is coming to and end, but Excalibur is far from over.


The time and effort required for base through to final version won't be as big a grind as people imagine. Come 3.0 I believe it will be very fast to go from base curtana to Excalibur, like not even a week. SE nerfs old content. they will nerf the relic chain. They already have nerfed atma -- old content -- got my most recent set in a couple hours. Big change from the day long grinds to get just one single atma. And when 2.5 hits and they surely make Hunts relevant again, I imagine the soldiery grind will be piece of cake.
