And people paid millions upon millions for their relics, and now, or after the release of the expansion that materia was close to worthless. Along with the time spent on grinding out the weapon itself, even more so for PvPers who spent countless hours getting to rank 45, now anyone can obtain that set of armour with very little effort in comparison. Everything in this game is nerfed, if something wasn't to be nerfed, it sure as hell shouldn't be the primal weapons, but the PvP gear or relic. Why not all of it? It was suggested a lot of times, but again, people complained that it wasn't FFXI and so a huge amount of forum posters stood by their opinion that it should be nerfed because it's nothing but a glamour piece.

If people are really after a status symbol, I'd suggest going after Kirin or the ADS mount, they're quite rare even now.
