So...in the midst of my second book for Stardust Rod Animus atm, and actually quite enjoying it as a quest structure, but I'm looking at this 75 alexandrite (sp?) bullshit I'm bound for afterwards and checking out the stats for the Laevateinn, which are seemingly the same (materia choice depending).

So what the heck?

They kind of have to keep making the 'relic' weapons be 'the best' because of the ridiculous hurdles required to attain the every single upgrade...

And yet I have an Unidentified Allagan Tombstone, so I'm less than 1500 soldiery away from a weapon that's on par with a Novus?

Was gonna use the UAT for my secondary class (Warrior) but now...not sure.

Can someone assure me that the Novus it actually worth it?
