EW’s Relics?

[Vencio]

Hi everyone!

Any word or hint that relics may be included for some time soon; perhaps be it on 6.2 or further ahead?

Trying to avoid in doing savage just for the 600’s weapon sake upgrade from my current 590.

Probably august.

I don't remember hearing anything that mentioned relics explicitly. There was something about criterion dungeons have some kind of weapon enhancement which could be relics, or it could be similar to Deep Dungeons where you work to enhance weapons used in those dungeons. It does seem kind of strange to me to be this late in the expansion without any word on relics, I feel like we have heard much sooner than this on all the others.

[Hanayumi]

Nah, relics prolly wont drop til 6.3, but we still havent gotten any info at all on them so... who knows? Best guesses, could see them tied to Criterion Dungeons or Deep Dungeon...

There is no really hard precedent. HW relics were added in 3.15, SB in 4.25 and ShB in 5.35.

Regardless though, the relic will always stay worse than current savage weapon until the very last patch of the expansion.

True, but you only need that if you plan on doing more Savage or ultimates, which if you don't then there is no reason to bother with it unless you're pursuing glam.

The premise of the question was getting a 600 weapon, in case you didn't notice.

[Derio]

You might as well just get the savage weapon. With the new dungeons coming in 6.2 we will be lucky to see the relic start in 6.3

Tbh worrying about ilvl if you're not doing Savage is probably a tad pointless :P.

[Jennah]

There haven't been any relics since Heavensward; just weapons associated with bad optional content.

Now, the Island Sanctuary patch release schedule matches up exactly with the Eureka/Bozja patch release schedule.
So while everyone else is expecting housing (and going to be disappointed), I am expecting relics (and going to be disappointed.)
