fast translate before i sleep....

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.

Thanks Deculture.

Excellent news! So glad that the Relic Weapon will continue in 3.0.

Here's the original article as well from Famitsu (Japan's #1 Videogame Magazine):

Relics continue in 3.0.

Will continue in 3.1 according to that translate, so while we are leveling to 50 > 60 we might not use it at all. But when first major patch comes its time to clean it from dust and start grinding again :P
