Thread: Next relic update in 2.38.

More work? Sure, it takes more time, but the quality of the "work" is in no way comparable to Coil.

You haven't been paying attention if you think you're getting a stat upgrade in 2.38 to relics.

It's cosmetic, like atma, an ilvl boost only in name.

As it has been since the start, the stat boost leg won't occur until the next Coil is released.

Not to crap on your terrible chore of a quest line you undertook, but they DID tell you that your weapon would never be the best.

I still have yet to get atma relics on my favorite classes, and won't go into coil probably for ages past turn 4....

Just kill endless trash in t8 and ignore boss :P

and the best part is it can only be done after 2.4 release so ppl dont have to cry someone could get a better weapon pre 2.4

but well, I dont think they'll implement it this way, some ppl already acquired 50%+, they want all ppl to start at zero, either they have to reset the % for everyone or they'll add something else

syrcus tower gives lot of sb too now, no need to run scob anyway

I want 1.0 style relic quests back, especially the leve aspect seeming they were actually a fun challenge, War and Blm leve's were especially good.

I've been taking a break on the monk animus books once I hit book 6 just to have a change of pace. I'm back to doing college work, so I don't have the time to grind things like I did before. If I just get it to animus level I'd probably consider myself done.

Ok, so you all can relax. I looked into my crystal ball and I have learned much.

1)It isn't spirtbonding your novus.
You all realize of course that to spiritbond a i110 weapon, the ONLY place to spiritbond it would be 2nd or 3rd coil right? What few rooms of trash in there would mean that you'd be in groups that would have forced wipes to just get the most out of it. "Oh wait guys, this is the 5th wave of trash, TIME TO WIPE!" It's been stated before, like in Mythflox for example, that the devs weren't happy with people butting out of Mythflox early just cause they got their fill of myth and didn't finish the zone.

2)It has little if nothing to do with 2nd or 3rd coil.
3rd coil will most likely have it's own weapons and weapon progression. The Zodiak weapons were a separate quest line from the start. At most they might have something to do with primals (the original quest for the first relic did) as far as 8 man content.

I'm currently using the UAT i110 weapon.

I've killed T9 9 times so far and not seen the BLM Staff drop.

If the relic update makes the relic better than HA weapons before I even get it, I'll be annoyed :P

They'll probably both be iLvl.115, but with comparably different stats. For example, DRG Relic has a chunk load of accuracy, while non-Relics typically have a chunk load of Determination. Both Liberator and High Allagan Spear work this way.

(After looking at the High Allagan Spear's stats, all I can say is DO WANT)
