Is it true about RELICS in 3.0?!

[Gilraen]

So the old Relics from 2.x will be for glamour purposes in HW, but will it has its stats still? Like the Relic weapon isn't going to lose all of its stats upon hitting 3.0, right? That would be dumb if it did.

Trying to get my second Zodiac Brave Weapon for my PLD and I still need 15 more drops, don't want it to be irrelevant by the time I get all 16 drops when 3.0 hits.

No... noone's saying anything of the sort except those angry that the Mythics aren't Relic Reborn Repeating (i.e. continuation of the Relic Reborn questline).

Good to know, so they'll still be useful for the most part then. Hmm... I guess I could wait until 3.0 to do the other Relics as I want to collect them all of all my classes, they all look amazing.

If they're going to nerf it come 3.0 are they going to nerf the Animus Books as well? Honestly that's one of the biggest roadblocks from starting a new Relic at the beginning. I dislike doing 9 books in total.
