Soo... apparently Diadem has i280 weapons with higher WD than alexandrian/anima lux

I worked for my 2 relics and this doesn't bother me at all. I'm fine with rng on rng on rng on rng, vs working to learn savage fights and getting guaranteed weapons.

How are they guaranteed if we put work into the fight?????

Because when raiding, or getting relic, the weapon is there, at the end of the tunnel. There's not a chance that it may be there - It will be.

Even after reading all of the salt in this thread, I still don't care. People acting like someone walked up and punched them in the face need to get over themselves. Its a 4x RNG weapon, at the end of an expansion. Its there for those who care to try and get one. If you don't like it, simply dont do it. But what will really happen is all those people who value dps over anything else will put up PFs requiring it. Cuz thats what our side of the world does.

On topic ^ sums up my feelings nicely.

I don't get all the uproar this has caused. I did my anima from the very beginning, always when it came out, no nerfed steps. I DO NOT feel like I wasted my time or energy now that there is a >1% possibility I could get a "better" weapon. My sense of accomplishment from completing this quest line (which not only was for the weapon, but also the story, which I liked very much), has not been diminished because now some people who didn't do the relic can POSSIBLY get a better weapon than me.

I'm going to keep running all the extreme primals I've been fighting with my glorious 275 that I worked for and am happy with, and try to clear the ones I haven't yet (with a weapon that is better than what people had when the fights first came out and people were clearing them).

This new weapon really has no effect on me at all, and I feel bad for those people who are so upset about this that they are going to unsub or something. When I get home from work tonight, I'm going to try out Diadem and hopefully enjoy it. Imma get me those super cute minions, maybe some nice acc, and potentially some cool glamour.

They're guaranteed after you learn it. I'm not taking away savage victories. People work hard, they deserve better. I'm against vertical progression cuz it always renders my gear useless with pretty short bursts of time. I would definitely take savage super seriously if it ment something in the long run.

I personally STOPPED caring about trying so hard when I realized the game was gonna stay vertical. Now I just treat glamour like horizontal progression aka the end game.
