Relic weapons for Stormblood?

[Centershock]

The second Omega tier will be released in Patch 4.2.

Was there a reason why Yoshi-P was holding back on the relic quests? 4.15 seems awfully late. HW's start of the relic quests was kind of... well... awful.

It was that late back in HW too. And I agree, HW was pretty badly done for Relic quests...I much preferred ARR's, save for the Animus step (the books were absolute hell).

In Heavensward's case it was late because 3.1 was terribly late in general. Holding the relic back that long was definitely a mistake in that case.

We're still not sure what form the Stormblood relics will take though. Yoshi has stated before that the new relic will be tied to the new Eureka zone. This heavily implies that we won't be grinding old content as we used to but instead grinding a special new form of content designed specifically for the relic progression. It makes sense that the relics are being held back this time as it seems they depend on Eureka and some other things being implemented at the same time.
