Relic ShB grind needs a hotfix!

Maybe if you did it now. He's talking pre-nerf. Definitely worse.

Even post nerf, those books for the ARR relic are brutal. Nothing has been done to nerf those, but at least you can fly in ARR zones now, and can steamroll everything solo now so long as you don't need the weapon equipped; and since you do for most things involved with the steps, it is actually still a hell of a grind.

Also, light farming is the offspring of Major Drag.

The rare Fates for the books also spawn more often, no? I am legitimately asking, I don't actually remember.

Yup, they adjusted fate spawns a few times.

People seems to often forgot the step of ARR relic where you were asking from crafting stuff (which was asking for exclusive mat from desynthesis specific item) and special loot you could get when finishing a specific dungeon (was not 100% drop rate like after nerf).

I was lucky with the dungeon drop stuff, just have to do 90 runs in total, but i remember people having to do smth like 40+ runs for getting the Val aurum item XD (if i remember we had to farm 12 different dungeon).

Or the atma step pre-nerf, was luckly to get all of them with just 300 fates while a friend of mine just got 2-4 atma on the 12 needed in 300 fates ^^'.

So the current grid is so far better than ARR. By the way it is because of the ARR relic that dungeon give the most token on the last boss, i remember when people while farming memo for the relic where only doing the 2-first boss of Braflox HM because it was the more efficient way to farm memo.

And for people annoying to be forced to do castrum run, remember in ARR the HM primal (Titan notably) was compulsory and far harder than now thank to the ilvl.

People were asking for a mixte of Eureka and the old relic (ARR/HW) and they got exactly what they were asking.
