Thread: About 3.1 Relic

When relic was first introduced noone knew how it would end.

Me personally i dont care if the weapon becomes nothin but a glamour piece.

But if all we get after spending millions of gil and countless hours into it is a "easier" start to the new relic grind then i will feel very sad indeed and most likely wont be going for the next relic.

This is the main issue, why invest in yet another relic? If you're just going to take a dump on the months of grinding any millions of gil sunk into it, only to completely make your efforts obsolete? This pretty much magnifies the fact that the relic quest is just horribly designed.

This hurts newer players more than anyone else, as they were not able to take advantage of "the best weapon in the game" for a reasonable period of time, and now they are stuck with a soon-to-be obsolete weapon, with no refund of investments.

I'm sorry, you aren't entitled to be supremely advantaged till the end of times in this game.

I don't see the few people who cleared Turn 5 complaining that their hard earned Twintania progression when no one knew how to do Twisters was made pointless by subsequent turns and new gear.

Get used to the fact you can't buy/grind your way into permanent advantage.

Completely missing the point. This isn't hurting veteran players who have millions of millions of gil and had there relic weapon since the beginning since they already got a return on investments for using the best weapon in the game.

I just hope that anything in the future is linked to worthwhile challenges over meaningless grinding of low level stuff to increase your ilevel to the max, which is confusing. We went from fun/challenging boss fights to face rolling trash mobs.
Also to your point, the feeling you are going through right now has happened to quite a few of us multiple times over the last couple years, it's disheartening and I hope they really fix the overall system.
Maybe with them finally getting ahead of the game, they can do more on oversight.
An old Example is Savage Blade and Skull sunder being pld/war cross class. never would you use them, but then keen flurry is lancer and yea we dont get to play with that misplaced skill.

The title will not be optainable elsewhere, it's a part of getting a Zeta.

Also you get a nice glamour item. I'd rather have a pretty weapon glamour that not many people will have years from now than a relic continuation, honestly.
