Relic: Your progress on the Grind.

[MiniPrinny]

36/240 so far. Honestly, I'm just going to take this slowly.

I'm 33/240 currently. I've still got 12 sands squared away. Just getting the esos themselves is quite the pain. No crits turn-ins either. :c

[Remus]

I haven't seen one +4 or +5 yet.

I manage to get one Illuminati Perch and add another 48 Blue Scripts to my count so I had 153 Blue Scrips to use so I got 100 Brute Leeches. Should help in the long run. Just keep using Patience and Powerful Hookreel, right?

My Gathering is 494 and my Perception is 444 so I shouldn't have a problem, but I hate when you tug them in and the fish still gets away. My only beef with Fishing in this game really.

The point is they need to have you engaging multiple content for umbrite, not just sands.

Treasure maps
Roulettes
Contents outside of Roulette
In short everything that give you the 2nd best tome

What is missing is a 100% chance of umbrite from a treasure map that you get from a daily expert roulette quest.

Yes, i capped my blue gathering scrips using this method very very quickly.

Well, it is possible to buy all Umbrite doing daily roulette by 1 month, I think.

Is anyone else a little sad that we can't buy any of the items to trade in for sands with lore? I only have one main class, so now I'm sitting on over 1000 lore with nothing to do with them. Womp womp.

SE usually does not use the most recent currency for the relic quests. Probably so people gearing their main/secondary don't feel pressured to hold off to get the relic. One of the reasons the relic quest exists is to get players in older content and poetics/esoterics are the ones you see the most.

I would prefer umbrite to be bought with lore as well as esoterics if anything. So many options for sand as it is .
