[Deus_ex_Machina]

thanks all! great advice. Out of curiosity, is the relic weapon still a thing? or has SE finally dropped that?

Zodiac relics was swept under the rug and serve as glamours now. Although you can trade in your Zeta to skip the 1st step of the new Relic Quest

Upon being a lvl60, you can start a new relic quest line. The Anima Relic.

Steps:
1. Farm Luminous Elemental Crystal (18 total) by doing fates in HsW zones. Or trade in your Zeta Relic. (get i170)
2. Complete 10 dungeons with your new relic. (get i200)
3. Unidentified items + crafted items to progress (i210)
4. Farm 5x Aether Oil with tomes or "Gift of Archmagus" (i230)
5. Farm Umbrite from tomes and Crystal Sands from multiple other means - this is the customizing stat phase (i240)
6. Farm 50 singing cluster with tomes, daily duty roulette and weekly leveling roulette quest (i260)
