How relic should have been....

[Faelandaea]

I have all relic, they are about as standard as the WSNM from FFXI, something you're expected to have to do good DPS.

What people are asking for is a true relic line where after working hard you get a weapon that's truly unique. The only way this system can work is if the process is so tough that the weapons stay pretty rare. And only the most focused and dedicated can do it. Currently there's nothing like that in XIV nor is it planned to be


I don't think they'll ever do it though

I can agree with that much. It's good to have options for the grinders and options for the casuals.

That is what Final Fantasy is all about. You want to be able to solo behemoth, or have primals be a regular mob wandering around for anyone to walk up and kill in a couple of hits? Imagine if there was Bahamut and he was just a regular ol EXP mob. Well..its just a name right???

Relics in FF history have always been hard or time consuming to get. In FFX getting Lulu's was super hard haha you had to dodge 200 lighting strikes. It is just kind of insulting to the name yes...a name that has what..over 20 years of history? It is like a slap in the face to the meaning behind the FF series.

If the name is what is bothering people, I could care less what my weapon is called, as long as they don't take it away.

I wouldn't mind seeing a way to upgrade the relic +1 to be competitive with the ilvl 95 allagan. Some of them are just terribly itemized, the allagan WAR axe being the prime example.

Easiest way to do it would be to make you obtain your allagan weapon and sacrifice it to upgrade your relic to ilvl 95. This way, people have a choice instead of feeling subpar because their "best" weapon has crap for stats on it.
