Patch 3.3 - Anima Weapon Update

[StouterTaru]

If anyone can translate anything important, or has any information (iLv, etc) that may/may not have been mentioned in the video but not the digest... please share ^_^

They put up an English version on that screengrab at yesterday's duty commenced. Relic weapons start just before the 37 minute mark. Next step will be ilvl240.

It wont use materia, but most likely the items can be purchased with tombs.

They already said materia won't be used.

They said materia can be used, as one of many options

Can't view videos for information right now, but much appreciated!

i240 is good to know also. I'm kinda glad I skipped the Lore Tome weapons entirely...

Why do you say that? The photo shown is a BLM staff.

Max stats on all caster weapons (all weapons in fact) were the same for previous relic, so i was assuming it was the same this time around.

However, i am more than happy if i turn out to be wrong.

Recently on duty commenced yestderday they said materia will not be used for this step. The only thing that got mentioned about materia was when you finish the relic the weapon it will compare to a weapon with 3 tier 5 materias on it.

I get what you're saying. However, I don't know why they would actually force you to lose stats by upgrading your relic further. All three healer relics already have +123 Piety. You would think the new upgrade would allow you to go higher than the current number.

Non-healer Novus relics had a cap of 23 piety, while healer Novus relics had a cap of 33 piety.

Which was still lower than crit/det/spellspeed caps. (Iirc)

For what reason do you want so much PIE anyway?
