Constructive feed back of Relic 3.15 Thus far.

I'm just worried about the third step. The part that requires you to trade items obtained from beast tribe, dungeons, and crafting.

It's going to blow

Last step is 800 or so alex runs without the tombstones factored in.

If your a devoted crafter im assuming that step would be as bad to be made out, on ones own you can make the crafted items for 1 item on your own, working with 2 other crafters should be enough to do everything and if not beast tribes and occational runs and daily maps should help alot with poetics and law along the way, everything combined with daily activitys doesnt seem to bad, if you grind however, yea looks bad XD

The (lack of) story behind these weapons bother me, when it, quite literally, invalidates what you have done with a zeta weapon and it's (already shallow) legend.

Most of the steps has you revisiting 2.0 content rather than new content, and because of the unsync option, it does't necessarily "breathe" life into the queues either when people can just usnync it.

And as a MCH, I find it incredibly hard to justify doing this (even in "preparation" for the next relic step" because not only is the finished weapon a very small upgrade, its arguably a downgrade from my thordan weapon, especially in the current perspective in the game that I really feel I can't be bothered to go beyond dailies and raid logging.

Honestly I saw the requirements, laughed and walked away. I'll just stick to my current weapons, not worth the headache for, as I recall with last relic, being able to get weapons of almost similar stats (maybe a few points shy of the relic). I am perfectly fine with that.

[Deathscythe343]

The immediate problem I see from my perspective is that this weapon is supposed to be geared towards the casual player. From the steps that I have seen listed, this is for anyone but the casual player.

benefits of a big FC with master crafters in every job. LOL

haha i can imagine! only a few crafters in my own, myself being the maxed player. but a few with 60s, going to be just a challenge to see if we can get people to pull together :P

Anima seems to be a big rehash of the 2.x relic series starting from Atma.

Crystals = Atma
I skipped this part since I had 3 zetas. It's nice that once you've progressed in your first Anima, you can pick up the prior quests with any other job to progress in it if you want to help people out etc. The drop rates for the crystals sound like they're way better than OG atma, and you can get them even while levelling unrelated jobs so that's a plus.
Dungeons = Light farming for Novus
Hated that you didn't have a choice on which order to tackle the dungeons. Lore-wise we only revisit dungeons in our memories ala the CT weekly, so it doesn't make much sense for Ardashir to tag along. Though I suppose it doesn't make sense to test our weapons against memories, either huh. Guess suspension of disbelief is in order. This phase felt really extraneous since it's one and done + can unsync the ARR ones.
Unidentified junx = Zodiac but with grind
Personally feels about 50% overboard. I like that there are multiple ways to get these items, but 20 each? geez. Crafted part still doesn't bother me though it doesn't validate specialties except as a way to exclude omnicrafting, and the materials are nothing special. I DO NOT LIKE having to carry around 8+ new currencies not including the old beastman FATE stuff. Seriously use the damn currency tab more. I'm on this phase and all the HW currency junk as a crafter is getting in my way.

The devs really seem hate it when players grind out content in a week whether raid or relics, and I agree with that sentiment. These 210sweapons aren't much better than Thordan and with only a few exceptions not better than Gordian/enhanced Esoterics, but the models look mostly nice (dat bard bow though...) and the awoken effect looks amazing. Not to mention you get a "free" 200 esoteric-looking weapon from just farming fates (albeit with better drop rates) and levelling dungeons.

Of course they chose to leave out the part that was the most well recieved and liked among the playerbase; the questline to create the base relic.

Are you kidding, you don't remember the amount of whinging that happened when apparently no one but raiders could clear Titan HM.
I wouldn't have minded a skill check like at least Ravana HM though.
