Has to be one of the dumbest things ever.

That's nice. Way to belittle others.

Relic Zeta.
The difference being I actually put time and effort, 7m, 300+ hours, and leveled a stupid tank to not sit in queue for an hour and a half as dps to get my item.

Zeta Replica
Crappy stats and 61gil.

Yeah, there's NO difference.

Crappy stats... it's an irrelevant weapon at 60, a glamour piece at that point there is your difference, all that other stuff doesn't matter anymore gil spent/time.
I came back to the game late, what I would give to be in your position with a Zeta to trade in and skip an extra grind step.

^ Excalipoor i approve

Well except the part where you have to do this:

Sure? I mean i got my Zeta as well back when they were relevant but it isn't like i'm using it for stats at level 60. I would hope nobody else is doing this as well.

If this is just about the "Replica" part of the text in the item description then, i dunno what to tell you w/e floats your boat dude.

You must not read. I said It's my time that's of value. Anything less than a 40hr skip in effort is a slap in the face by comparison.

I didn't wait 2-4 months for a nerf like most people.

Odds are that new atma-esque grind will take time.

I'm sorry you have no problem throwing your time at this game without any regard to its worth in the end.

I actually care about mine, and I don't see anything other than skipping a grind like Atma worthwhile.

I'm kind of with Laerad on this. My Zeta isn't just a "pretty" weapon, it is MY weapon. It's stats are picked to exactly fit my taste and I remember every hardship I've been through to get to where it is now.
There is a huge difference between this and a mere glamour item. But hey, everyone has a different bond to their items. I am one of those people who have an entire retainer bag full of 1.0 items like prophecy scrolls, deaspected polycrystals, Maelstrom medals and the like. It's the same kind of memory chest people have in RL with concert tickets, postcards and seashells they picked up at their holiday location. My Zeta is part of that and there should be a good reason to throw it away.
