    Relics/alex weapons will last a lot longer. Most people probably have a better chance at the Cactpot grand prize than getting a Diadem weapon.

    That doesn't matter.

    Relic is still not BiS. That's why some people are upset. I know it doesn't upset the white knights (Which I think are cute :3 gogo white knights!) but I understand the complaints.

    Relic will never be BIS again. The devs have admitted that making it BIS at the end of ARR was a mistake. It is never suppose to surpass the raid weapons.

    I have my Relic and I don't feel like my time/work got invalidated. I got a shiny weapon which will serve me as glamour (which it was through the whole HW time anyway) for quite some time into SB, a funny storyline (Gerolt is awesome lol) and a minion.

    For me there is no point in being upset about this

    Shiny new trophy that is not a shiny trophy anymore cause a godly weapon is now trumped by a pink tier weapon.

    Eh, no it's still a shiny trophy and always will be. Just because there are more trophies out there to get now doesn't make the previous ones you obtained 'trumped' or worthless.

    I wasn't aware there could only be one trophy at a time. Relics are still incredibly good weapons to have, and I have no intentions of quitting on my third relic just cause this one came out. It's not always about the destination, and having a shiny pink trophy does not invalidate the effort people put into acquiring their purple/blue trophy.

    Purple is always the best tier in this game and it should have stayed that way. SE failed to acknowledge that and have become disrespectful towards players that put time and time into grinding the anima. Now someone can afk in Diadem which is new crap content btw.. diadem with fates. People leave if EM doesn't trigger... 280 weapon is the new content... not diadem.

    Incorrect. Top tier weapons have always been blue ones, except the end of ARR in which it was purple. Relic has always, always been behind because raiders would complain constantly.

    I'm not upset and I have multiple 275 relics on my main and alts. Light gathering for my summoner at the moment and whether or not I attempt another remains to be seen once done with that one.
