Relic Weapons released a bit to early.

I just wish they required skill to obtain in regards to the job you're trying to obtain the weapon for. They should have given us a challenging instance boss we had to defeat ALONE with our jobs to obtain the weapon for them. Each job could have a different boss to fight or the same boss, but tweaked so that it's not impossible or too easy to defeat depending on the job....that would have been pretty damn amazing if you ask me. Then when you see people with relics, you KNEW they had some sort of skill.

Two years after launch is too early?

But jobs havent even been out for a year yet.

Well i dont really wanna answer that. Cause any answer makes me look like an ass. But besides 11 when i think Relic anything i think something ancient and very powerful. So id also thought theyd wait to a higher level cap, but SE can just as easily make quest to upgrade them to the level caps.

I think its fine to release relics for what we have now and then release them as other jobs come along. Even with the new jobs you will have to still go through the same thing anyway to get them.

Wasn't RoZ relic out at the 2 year mark also?

Ya but but look what came out at the same exact time. Sam, Nin, Dragoon. 3 new jobs

Im sorry to say, but you are not really making much sense. Believe me when i say i know where you are coming from, i get it. The thing is, in your mind, Relic should come with an expansion and new Classes/Jobs, i don't see the connection.

Just like anything else it would have been beaten within hours of release. Getting the best weapon in the game after 1 solo fight is pretty anti-climatic anyway.

MMO's for the most part balance around multi-player content because it's, you know, a MMO.

I agree, even though i didnt really read any of what was said XD. Mainly because are these "relic" weapons for u when your lv.50? cause isn't FFXIV suppose to end up at lv.99 in the future? when i hear relic weapons i cant help but think of the relics from dynamis in XI and should be for max lv. which is going to be lv.99. So when i see this u get relics at lv.50? I think that like o u get a relic weapon but when the cap increases a normal weapon will kick its ass. a relic weapon should be all powerful and insanely hard to get. So far from what I have seen its not hard to get at all just takes time and dedication.
