Most crafts take like sub-200k to level from 1 to 50, depending on what kind of methods you used and whether you bought or gathered your stuff etc. I did Builder of the Realm in 2.0 and I didn't use more than 400k on a single craft, ever. Should be easier off by now anyway.

Novus seems is going to be awfully expensive and time-consuming for a weapon it's not even the best and it's already outdated. :X

No mention of weapon/magic damage

Pretty sure they have stated that weapon damage/magic damage is tied into ilvl of a weapon (atma weapon being a special case, since its upgradeable and not a "final" weapon). One reason they upped the coil weapons to 95 back before 2.2 came out, to make them better than relics.

Relic weapons have always been intended to be the extremely time consuming option of progression.

That said, literally the only thing more powerful than them now, given that you have substat control on this upgrade, is the Second Coil finale reward, which it seems that so long as Coil exists will always be the case, and only an extremely small fraction of players will realistically be able to obtain. Even the Unidentified Allagan Tomestone weapons you can pick up that are i100->110 don't have controllable substats, and while a larger amount of players should be able to obtain them, it's still an extremely small number.

Novus, meanwhile, is better than the Tidal Wave weapons and will be better than Ramuh EX weapons too, since those are apparently only level 100.

Hell, depending on what the weapon damage difference is between them and the Turn 9 weapons, they may be better due to being able to be more optimized in substats selected in one or two cases, though I'm not sure.

I think I am mostly excited about the new emotes for /changepose and the Sightseeing log. *^*

Also, are Fantasias being sold..? I don't think I read that. Or did I miss that? I did read that Fantasias are no longer labeled as unique, but..

That'll probably be a separate announcement once the patch is complete. If they're not immediately available they should be within a short time frame of the patch's completion, as getting them out with 2.28 was their intended timeline.

And why would you need to cap a crafter, to meld? you can just ask someone in FC to do it for you. All you need to do is get gear from leve/instances/maps/retainers/etc, and SB. Doesn't cost anything.

I wasn't aware that making a lv 50 crafter cost anything...i was making gil while lv it up. The only cost i had, was teleporting to some camp, to turn in leves, and the gil i got from leve, was more than tele cost.
If it costs you milions to make a lv 50 crafter...you're doing it wrong.
