Just add 1 more step for i635 Relic Weapon with Alternate Effect Color.

you want to do the same roulettes and hunt trains u have done for a year? if you want tome weapons they already exist?

This was, in large part, how the Heavensward relic was done back in the day, farming tomes from Atherochemical Research Facility, and many players preferred the Heavensward system to Eureka/Bojza explicitly because they could try to accomplish two in-game goals at once rather than being quardened off into separate zones where you cant do other things while running the content.

Yes, this relic weapon could have used more than just get 1,500 tomes per weapon per step, and I think doing something like the Endwalker relic where maybe between the steps you have one big task to accomplish before you can unlock and breeze through the later ones. But even at it's dull simplicity here, I still prefer it over being forced into exploratory zones.

Too many people who clamour for the ARR/HW system clamour for what they think is the original system when really it’s the nerfed poetic system

Look at books, you won’t naturally complete books just doing your daily’s, you have to seek out the content the books want you to do

But people today see anima relics as nerfed poetic dumps and go “yeah the two for one system is good”

I explicitly DON'T want the ARR relic, which is why I said Heavensward. This weapon had steps like "do your leveling roulette three times this week" and "run crystal tower once this week" and all these things you're doing also give poetics that could help you prepare for the next step or complete the current one. Yes, it still had steps you had to complete just for the weapon, but it was entire zones that you had to go to which exist only to serve creating the weapon and make it so you can't do anything else at the same time. (and by other things at the same time, I could be in queue for expert roulette while running fates for the earlier relics, things like that)
