I am currently trying to upgrade my relic weapon - the lovely alexandrite phase - and as I participate in hunts and buy maps with tomes and the daily (I've lost three maps trying to solo the treasure mobs), I'm starting to wonder if spending allied seals on alexandrite is worth it at this point. I would much rather use those allied seals to get carbon twine to upgrade my ironworks gear.

I haven't rewlly ventured into the coils to do this btw.

Any thoughts?
