patch 3.51

I don't get this why nerf Aether Oil. It's one of the easier steps of the current Relic. If anything they need to take a look at the time investment needed for Umbrite stage.

It's not an either/or scenario. The relic stages are always nerfed sequentially. The aether oil step is the next to be nerfed so the umbrite stage will be after that, or possibly at the same time, but not before.

I believe I saw a Famitsu interview in which Yoshi did say they would be adding an anima weapon stage nerf very soon after 3.5 so 3.51 does make sense. I doubt they'd wait until 3.55 as that is when they'll likely drop restrictions and difficulty across the board for many things to let people catch up quickly in preparation for the expansion.
