Thread: Patch 3.15 Notes Discussion

I've been doing some of the old Relic quest for kicks as I started with 3.0 and thus never got the chance to properly experience that. I probably won't bother finishing and just jump straight into the Anima weapon. Grind? Speak for yourself. As long as its well-done, I love a good grind. (Grinding FATEs for Atma is a good example of a 'well-done' grind to me.)

No, what *really* gets me is that the new side story requires you complete the Hildibrand questline. Now, granted, I'd entertained this idea before and even started the first Hildibrand quest, but spoilers have long led me to suspect Hildibrand wasn't up my alley. I haven't even completed the required FATE yet. I eventually gave up under the reasoning that I likely wouldn't enjoy the story. The academy sidestory interested me because it was specified to be a 'serious' story.

But now it looks like I have to get through Hildibrand anyway. FML. I suspect this will be painful, but who knows? Maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised.

For relics I mean

Originally thought those Precision Gordian items would be a replacement to current token so you only need to trade in 1 for 1 piece of gear but... missing crank and pedal and wouldn't need bolt for that, also seems unlikely to be an upgrade if those are missing too, so yeah possible they're just for something unrelated. >.<

might be for the anima weapon. 1 item per floor.
or it might be a token system, where no matter how bad you loot you'll eventually get to choose an item. again 1 item per floor, so no need to add more.

or wild guess, considering how SE is basically throwing ilv210 gear at us, these might give us a chance to upgrade prototype gear to real gordian gear, but the items will obviously have a low drop rate (this one is unlikely though, since there was no mention of any new additions to the idyllshire npcs)

Plot twist. The new relic becomes the holder's name.

I'm so gonna laugh if the NPC is all like: "I demand one THOUSAND lala sacrifices to create the base weapon. Oh wait, you say murder is illegal, um ok, how about just some cash then?"

The end of the original relic quest was troll-y if people remember. "Hmm, I think I'm going to need...a hundred of EACH atma...yea...that would be greeat."
