Thread: Question to Devs about 3.0 new jobs relic weapons

The most likely outcome is that Relic weapons simply cease to progress once we enter Heavensward, with a new set of weapons being made to take their place and start all over.

I actually hope the current weapons end at 2.51. There's only so many times a single weapon can be reforged and it's getting overly silly at this point.

Isn't the Zodiac version a completely different weapon that's simply been infused and bolstered with a super materia made from you now non-existent relic nexus? I've yet to finish this particular part of the quest, but that's how it seems to me.

The same concept kind of applies though. What are we going to do: break this one down into a super duper materia and infuse another weapon which becomes a super duper mega materia for another weapon...?

I think they'll keep the set and either continue or make a second set. It'd be a bit silly for Square to boost lights and Alexandrite drop rates, only to trash it all in the next few months anyway.

There's too much investment to throw it all away. Perhaps they'll just start giving us +1 upgrades for whatever comes next and we'll call it a day.
