I know I'm late to the party. Been gone a few months because relic weapon/dungeon grinding pushed me away.

But anyway, is this weapon ever going to be actually worth it? I feel in the end this weapon should be the most powerful weapon.

Step 1 - On the new server, just obtaining this weapon was a huge pain and very few could actually pull it off when they hit 50.

Step 2 - This one isn't too bad, but still a time killer.

Step 3 - Absolute poor design and could take the player anywhere from a week to a couple months. Best part? There's no stat upgrade. Why is this a step? Why collect atma if we're not going to get an actual upgrade?

Step 4 - Books are also a huge pain, where you have to not only farm but you have to kill hundreds of monsters and this wouldn't be too bad on the killing part if fates didn't take 3 to 6 hours to spawn. Man that's so much fun! I definitely want to resub when I missed a fate now I have to wait 4 days before I see it again.

Step 5 - Haven't even gotten to this part because I've been gone so long. It's expensive and pretty time consuming as well.

What the eff is the point of all of this? Chasing around stupid pointless quests, stupid repetitive sub baiting crap....

My question is considering this had a similar weapon in FFXl will we EVER see a point where this weapon is actually worth while? I apologize for the harsh tone, but the tail chasing this thing has put me through has been hell and I've been back 3 days and it's already driving me crazy.
