Relic Weapons: Going Forward

[Deathscythe343]

Sounds like this is the crux of your question. If i'm mistaken, let me know. I'm casual and I see nothing wrong with getting the Rowena Tokens for a weapon. I did that so I can have raid gear while i slowly plug away at the end game. I think that is well within the realm of casual possible. Rather than make changes to what is currently in place. i think the addition of different weapons options will help. Like along with gear dropping from places like CT ST and WoD have weapons too. problem solved?

Yes and no. Something like this would require them to offer the UATs or equivalent in those raids or in other places. Not sure that they, the developers, would do this.

I like the idea of being able to get a job specific weapon. Reminds me of my EQ days.

One of the big things that myself and others that I have talked to in game don't like is that there seems to be a significant amount of work involved with completing the upgrade process from one stage to the next, but the upgrade seems to be marginal. Just seems that if a player would be required to put in two months worth of work to upgrade his/her weapon, that the upgrade should be worth the time invested into it.

Yes and no.

The other problem is probably, Give me a reason to get a relic. for you, there should be some kind of incentive other than bragging rights to go through all the BS you have to go through to get a weapon that seems lackluster compared to something you can just walk over and pick up.
