The problem I have with relic weapons

At this point, I think SE should start giving free relics as login rewards.

Like having them delivered by moogle mail ? It seems like a good idea, but wouldn't we still have some people complaining that the next delivery moogle is way too far, and that the distance to reach him should be nerfed ?

They actually are a bit oddly placed in the main cities >.>

No that's a horrible idea.

Personally the relics for 5.X have been some of the easiest to get. So far there hasn't been any 'YOU CAN ONLY DO THIS IN EUREKA' type bullcrap and I'm pretty bloody happy about that.

I don't think relic weapons are hard to get, just annoying with the grind - regardless if its 1 hour or 3. I am not a fan of fate grinding. I would be much happier if it was dungeons or raids.

Honestly I believe relics should involve some sort of grinding.

I mean the obtaining the relic is simply trading in tomes. Upgrading it though it needs a grind.

The biggest hurdle is simply fate farming, which you get guaranteed drops from each fate. You could also go into Bozja and cluster farm and get memories that way as well randomly but that would definitely be way too much grinding. Its a low effort upgrade honestly.

you can do a little bit at a time and make significant progress.

I guess it's more me "hating fates" it comes from GW2 with their world events that you would Zerg over and over again for precious drops. I was never a fan of that and quickly left the game (even though I loved GW 1) because it was so grindy.

I do agree we need a grind, but why not dungeons - make use of some of the old dungeons .

I am not complaining about that or length of time - just the monotonous grind.
