QUEST COMPLETE: 10 'Perfectly' statted Zodiac Zeta weapons before Heavensward

[Drako]

Grats. no achievement? SE is underestimating us!

thats some serious farm you have going on:

146100 Tomes of Soldiery TOTAL

1600000 GC Seals (bomb core)

750 Alexandrite = 150,000 Allied seals

Really the only thing that really is the challenge of this process is the RNG. ESP during the Dungeon Atma stage. Based on my two relics I've done, I can say with certainty the OP came out way on top with all of the excess tomes, seals and Alex. And during my two relics, I didn't use a single allied note. I got all mine from doing experts and buying the map with soldiery(actually have 90+alex now if I want to do another.).And when your getting tons of items to trade for GC seals, its not hard to get bomb cores, and still have plenty of room to sell Crafting items that you buy with GC seals. OP is likely rich as hell. Unless of course on all your zodiac dungeon drops you went 1/3 or better. Then I could see there being some necessary money, seal, soldiery grind. Most people I talked to all came out ahead. I'd really love to see your drop rate, but I doubt you kept track of that much of the process.

Id also like to know how much of this was done before all the nerfing to relic process, and how much was done after. It's really a much easier process now.

Grats on the achievement though. I'm jealous. If I didn't have a job, wife, and life I'd likely attempt this myself. I can handle the grind, I did 45 lost city runs and didn't blink(altho I raised hell in my FC /linkshells). And kept marching onward.

OP you are very crazy.. I am working towards my 2nd Zeta and tossed out my Nin Novus scroll as i have had enough of the rng nonsense that is dungeon drops, lol
Big congrats to you though, that's a great achievement
And to the person that quoted you about your blm Relic, pay no attention as it is YOUR relic and none of his business, lol

[CrystalRainbow]

I did one, Couldn't bring myself to do the 2nd set of books. So ya. Maybe you could should refocus your energy to change the world.

As a aside, I'm sure we can bet on the zodiac drop-rate going way up, akin to the increase we got to atma. Honostly zodiac droprate = current atma droprate. So I'm saying more of a guaranteed 1/3 or better droprate, if not 100%. I hoping the materia falls out with the introduction of Tier V, this is kind of a barrier to people, esp ones that want to max the stats. I wouldn't mind collecting some more older relics. I wonder, if the advantage to the next relic is big enough. Would people just start putting W/E materia on the old relic, just to finish the process, and move on to the 3.0 vers?

Congratulations OP!!!!

Quite the accomplishment. I have one Zeta which almost broke my spirit, vowed, never again and stuck with that vow.

The realistic application of spell speed is as an over-time effect. Stat weights are determined by the mathematical best way to deal damage over an extended fight. When you're doing 12 second AE burns, spell speed is largely irrelevant and the value of crit shoots waaaaaaaay up.

Aww Moonfall ran away, I wanted to see his retort to this.

I was on Ultros for the majority of it, where gil buying is rampant and materia prices very much reflect that. I'd say novus for all ten came out around 300 million total.

Holy molly

[h0tNstilettos]

Wow! That's dedication. :O

There must be a word better than wow. That's really all I have to say.

Congrats. I think you have prepared the relic item for next 3 jobs. ^^;
But I don't understand what does the "Perfectly" mean above, does it mean the most efficient?
