In regards to this, does this mean I can use this exchanged item to swap over to a different relic? (I have Dragoon's Zeta but I now main Monk and like to switch)

yes you can use any Zeta. I believe this was asked in some letter/whatever quite recently and its to help the new jobs specifically who couldn't have one on their job.

I hope so cause I played a drg at start of and had zeta 3.0 but then switched to mnk and lacked motivation to grind a second zeta for my new main class.

Shouldn't you think of the zeta is improving or having use now again?

Then don't use it, let it just sit in your retainers inventory gathering dust while working on the new one. I'm using mine to skip the step; mainly to see what happens differently with the dialogue in the questline.

It's almost like bashing your head for 300+ hours trying to beat Alexander Savage and get full 210 w/ 210 weapon. and in 3.2 they'll be replaced

Don't get me wrong, I find an atma skip well worth trading it in. Not vendor trash, not player made items, though. I don't care about a piece of glamour, in regards to the replica. I put a lot of time into my weapon. My time is what's of value here, not the actual piece of equipment.

I don't care much for Dragoons Zeta so I didn't invest much into materia melds. Just a bunch of cheap disposable stats. Don't care for Warriors axe either but I do like the glow effect. However its nice knowing you can trade a slightly cheaper trash stat relic zetas you don't like and keep the ones you invested in as its still functional compare to a lv1 glam item.

I don't recall that quote either. I do know it was jokingly part of speculation as to what the phases could involve. But nothing before today suggested a new Atma farming round. I just hope those items stack and are not KI's tied to the job taking the quest line.

What the hell is the difference?
Pretend its the same item, LOL.
Has to be one of the dumbest things ever.
