any post 3.0 relic news?

Why are people so eager to put effort into a weapon that takes forever to get and gets outdated in a few months time?

After all that effort for 2.0 relics I felt so bad for all the people who actually did it for nothing.

Just gonna end up being an extremely hard to get glamour.

Some were best in slot, but the amount of effort was not worth the short amount of time they were.

Relics in FFXI were a much better example of how relic longevity was. Even well after the several expansions Excalibur was still good to have and could be upgraded. YEARS later it wasn't truly replaced. Having an Aegis upgraded was just as good as Ochain.

There is nothing good about relics in this game after what, 6 months? And don't even try to deny that when thread after thread of people being annoyed that one fight could get you a better weapon than all that crap like atma and lights for a shiny weapons.

Compared to FFXI relic weapons and how long they lasted. Yes, it's a significantly shorter amount of time. What like 6+years FFXI relic versus the several months the relic were "Bis" in FFXIV.

I like how you guys who are quoting me are only commenting on the one sentence and avoiding the rest cause you know it's true.

FFXIV had lvl 75 cap for years.....even then SE added mythic weapons -_- and that weapons really were a pain in the rear to get.

we knew that HW expansion was coming with lvl 60 gear and that relics werent going to be upgraded.

FFXIV relics are like wow legendary weapons , cool to have for that expansion and while leveling, maybe until 1 raid drop, after that useless.....not even usable as glamour

If SE did what you wanted and made relics last this long you'd just switch to complaining that all the new gear sucks and there's no point bothering to get it.

I wonder when people will get it in their head that XI and XIV are different games.

They were all bis if you made it so, also the whiners were idiots who wanted instant gratification using the "I could get a weapon just as good" bandwagon trip fallacy not realising that exact excuse made their complaints even more apparent of their lack of cognitive capability.

I remember reading somwhere that those relic weapons were never designed to be "the best"
They were basically an alternative to get a better weapon without having to join a static or force yourself through ex primals.
