    Why is the Allagan weapon less shiny than the relic/Primal weapons?

    I feel Allagan weapons are outshined (literally looks like dog poop) next to a primal weapon or other weapons that any casual can get. Why does the Dual Haken look more threatening than the Allagan axe? Same issue with Break Blade vs. the Allagan blade. Shouldn't it be the other way around? I feel this is a business move to please the majority of people.

    The question is: Why does good gear have to be bling bling, shiny and look like it was made by a designer who only cares about looks but not about practical use?

    I like the look of the Allagan weapons and also the look of the GC weapons and many of the lower level weapons.

    Not sure if this is a serious thread or not.

    I like Random-Number-Generator
    'cause I'm able to accept that
    a dice normally has six sides
    a pyramid has 5 sides
    a toast has 2 sides
    AND I CAN'T PREDICT WHICH SIDES IT FALLS TO.

    Allagan weapons are just a bis place holder until turns 6-10 open up in 2.2 then you'll be able to update your relic to bis again. I don't think allagan weapons are meant to be bis but place holders until relic updates are released.

    Uh they were buffed to i95, how are they not meant to be BiS.

    Also I think they look cool the way they are.

    Edit: To be clear they were buffed after the fact to ensure that they were all BiS, there's no reason for them to do that unless they 100% intended allagan weapons to be BiS. Future coil weapons will probably be BiS as well.

    The allegan axe looks well balanced, easy to swing, and filled with aether energy

    The dual hakken, whilst it looks cool, has a handle that ressembles something made in China, and the blades is way oversized that you know when you swing, it will weight you down easily, causing your attacks to miss.

    P.S The relic +1 is just a shiny botanist axe
