HW relic bonus

Just remember, its going to be just another glamor item soon and replaced by around level 55 even at full power.

Thanks for the info guys, I didn't realise it was only player speculation. I won't get my hopes up now ^.^

I really don't care if I get a shortcut for the new relic or not. I only care that the new relic is worth the inevitable grind. Let's hope it has some bonuses beyond the vanilla gear we've gotten so bored of.

Players have speculated that those with zetas will have an easier time. The developers have never said that. They have only said that players who have completed a zeta will be "taken into consideration", which can mean anything, even simply meaning that an NPC involved in the new quest may use a different dialogue which acknowledges the fact that someone completed their relic quest. At that point the accomplishment would be "taken into consideration" and the developers would have been true to their word.

I worry that some players are going to be really upset with whatever "taken into consideration" ends up meaning if the results don't live up to their expectations.

Just like Legacy players who did get different NPC dialogue...
We all know how it ended up

What is coming on 3,1 is the quest to upgrade the current new relic.
On 3.0 the new relic ( the first stage ) will be abailable. Have you seen the movie trailer, af2, benchmark, tourth to the north videos. Those weapons that combines perfect with the af2 are the new relics, not tomestone weapons.

That's 100% speculation, though. I wouldn't mind those weapons, but you have no basis for your claim.

Here's whats happening with the Zodiac Weapons in 3.0

Well the new relics come out in 3.1, so you have a few months to finish yours.

3.1 is 4/5weeks away not a few months. They said Alex Sav was 3.1. And that is 4 weeks after 23rd.

3.1 is 4/5weeks away not a few months. They said Alex Sav was 3.1. And that is 4 weeks after 23rd.

Where's the source for this?

The currently known schedule is this:

Launch - 3 days: early access
Launch
Launch + 2 weeks: Alexander (Normal) opens
Launch + 4 weeks: Alexander (Hard) opens and Tomestone of Esoterics unlocked
...
3.1: the new 24-player raid instance.

And the schedule for 3.x series have always been said to be more or less the same as 2.x, so every 3 months or so, meaning 3.1 will come sometime end of September or during October.

Poetics now?! Now that is a hard pill to swallow.

Poetics now?! Now that is a hard pill to swallow.

If you checked the patch note, you'd realize how trivial it is to get Poetics in 3.0.
