People who did Nexus when it just got released had a HUGE advantage over people who are doing it now. There were tons of farming parties they could join whenever they wanted. So yeah, I have no idea how to get my Nexus now. Doing regular dungeons and primals is out of the question, since the waiting times as DPS are ridiculous and you never know where the good light is.

I was fine with other relic upgrades, since you could do them all by yourself. With Nexus I totally have to rely on others. So, how did you do it? Any suggestions?
Just go with a partial party next time. As soon as you get a tank or healer, your queue improves.

In any case, Nexus is probably the easiest step of the relic quest so far. You can just play the game as you normally play it and eventually your relic will upgrade. I did roulette, coil, ST, maps, fates, and Primal/dungeon farming for desynth fodder. It took me a few weeks to get it, but I really didn't go out of my way to do so.

Those that got it within a few days did a nonstop Cape Westwind grind.
