Why not nerf relic 80 material grind too?

[Ashkendor]

It need to be nerf now XD!!!

Atma relic went in with 2.2 and didn't even get its first drop rate nerf till 2.4 when we got Nexus.

Probably ot a ways to go yet before we'll see Anima nerfed.

They will prolly reduce the cost to get an item (down from 680 tomes)

Reducing the actual number needed down from 80 is unlickly

Why do people wait for nerfs? JUST DO IT FROM THE START! I don't get it.

I can sum it up in four words for you: "Wahhhh this is haaaaaard."

I guess technically that's 3 words + crying.

Because it isn't actually hard, people are just lazy and are used to having gear handed out weekly and not having to work for it. Put bluntly: casuals.

For me it's not that it's hard (it's actually easy to do) or too long, it's just that this is a very dull, uninspired, and boring process to get the Relic. Kudos for people getting 3 or so Anima Weapons ilvl210 form from doing this, but not everyone has the stamina to do it more than once.

Basically this, in 2.x I had a relic for every job up to the non-zenith stage and 1 zenith before any nerfs to the content were made, I'd say based on current content this is equivalent to a non-hyperconductive relic. I only have 1 hyperconductive relic and 4 awoken relics. They way overtuned the grind this time and it's just not interesting or unique like the original relic was.

I don't think this.
ilevel 100 relic (luck based grind) needed longer for many people than the ilevel 210 relic (process based grind).

Cuz they know Yoshida has no backbone and will cave in eventually... Honestly I don't even blame them anymore lol... When every patch makes something easier, why do anything the hard way?!?

Get your oils each week. When they do nerf it, when the next stage comes out (probably) you'll be instantly 230 and ready for the next grind.

This is what I did. I don't need to hurry since I got my 230 already via lore. Plus relic don't have materia slot.
