Relic weapons for New Jobs. Start over again or?

[hallena]

i'd like they make relic harder/longer to get but everyclass has it one step below your main.
ex : You get novus on your main. all your alts has animus

If anything, the main "easing" I'd like to see for atma/alexandrites would be to remove the equipped weapon requirement for them to drop. Just let us unlock them, and then they drop from FATEs period so we can get exp if we like while farming them.

I do not think they would scrap the concept of Relic come 3.0.. If they did that, what is the point in doing the line in the first place? Everyone might as well not bother. lol

They said in a live letter months ago that the final form of the relics would alter skill animations, so it's fairly obvious they're intended to be a vanity thing to use as glamour once you're done. On top of that the very fact they've even discussed the 'final' form means they do plan for the current relic progression to end at some point soon.

It simply would not make sense for one weapon to be upgraded endlessly throughout the entire lifespan of the game as it would discourage new players from starting since they would never be able to catch up.

I suppose. Time will tell for sure what their final decision will be as they change their minds on various things... <sigh> I would love it if we could turn it in for a great starter weapon in the expansion!

No you have to start over it a new job, just like now if you switch jobs you have to do the stuff over again.

Yeah but it's a job that I didn't have on the release date, a job that I could not choose as my main at the time of the games release.

DRK wouldn't be a tank though.

Well you can't say that for sure. Gunnner is gona be a class we don't expect.

[KaerisKlyne]

Idunno how they're gonna handle jobs native to Eorzea, but I've been saying for a while that jobs from different places should have different means of acquisition for their relics.

[Skapoc]

I wouldn't be surprised if the new 3.0 relics for the new classes were off the bat on par or close to on par with 2.0 final relics. Might still be difficult to get but I don't expect a huge grind.
