Patch 2.51 will create the "ultimate" zodiac weapon.

QNS: Will the Zodiac series be continued in heavensward?
Yoshida
Until now, the zodiac weapon quest has been coming a long way so, "Please forget whatever happens till now" is something we are not going to do this time.
In heavensward, lvl cap is raised and player will grow again in terms of power etc, so naturally, new items will be obtained from new contents.
Therefore, with this, the zodiac weapon quest will also continue to player's growth, but will be scheduled in 3.1


QNS: So, during that time, to the owners of the zodiac, are there consideration for them? (idk wtf he means really)
Yoshida: Of course!


QNS: Before that, it seems like in patch 2.51, the zodiac weapons will continue to grow...
Yoshida
in patch 2.51, you will see the "ultimate" form of the ZWs. With this, in heavensward, you will see ZW continue to grow into greater heights and therefore, can still be used in various situations.


QNS: So.... what is this "ultimate" version be in terms of IL.....
Yoshida
Im sorry, i cant disclose that before patch comes.
Putting IL aside, things such as "MAX determination", tuning the weapon to your desired stats is the greatest advantage of yhe ZW. You can even adjust the stats on ZW according to your existing gears.[/B]

There you go guys, farm that 3 sets of atmas, alex, ZW items if you havent!!!

tl;dr Zodiac weapons are continuing in Heavensward, get to grinding.

Ty for posting this. I'd honestly just call it all off now if it wasn't going to be in HW. I didn't invest months, and possibly hundreds of hours dealing with RNG(Atma took me 106 hrs when it first launched) to have it all pissed away in the end.

Lol not to mention those melding... I can't wait to see what kind of lights/alex buff % we're getting.

I forgot about melding. Luckily on Behemoth, everything under IV's didn't cost anything above 10k ea for a long time, so I lucked out there.

I'm 2 runs from Nexus. ._. I wish I could have benefited from the light buff. I am way too lazy to start another Relic at this point in time. I really wish they had cut the cost of GCS for Nexus > ZW, I absolutely hate farming those out, and will probably need to run another 300+ trials to just get what's needed. :<

Yea unfortunately you don't have crafts lv or else GCS can be done in about 1hr for 4x bombcores (craft and spam trade Expert Delivery). Need/Greed every dungeon drops.

Then why are you playing an MMORPG?

Did you even read what I said? Here, let me be a little more clear.

I didn't invest months, and possibly hundreds of hours dealing with RNG, to have my Relic Weapon tossed away. That would upset me, and I would therefore never waste my time or effort on the Relic Questlines again.

I'm playing an MMORPG because I choose to. I've probably dropped easily 2000 hours in the last year on the game. I'm sure you already knew this, but I'll feed and sate you either way. Now kindly take your witty questions elsewhere. Thanks.

So basically, you're complaining about current content becoming old content when new content is delivered. My question was hardly witty, it was sincere: MMORPGs exist off of giving players content, then relegating that content to nostalgia when the time comes for new content to be created. Your complaint literally places you in direct opposition to one of the most fundamental ways in which the games in this genre operate.
