PSA Get your Replica first!

[Granyala]

PSA, You can ONLY get the Replica from Drake in North Shroud if you have a genuine Zeta first. If you rushed and traded in the weapon but wanted a replica you blew your chance.

Good that I grabbed a replica first, so all replica buy options are still open for me.

Gotta admit though: if this is indeed true it is an utterly STAGGERING feat of developer incompetence.
This has to be fixed ASAP or there will be a lot of people pretty bummed by being cheated out of unique projection options.

This is wrong. I turned in my Zeta and I can still talk to Drake for replicas.

[Eidolon]

can confirm, I traded my Ragnarok Zeta for the two items. I can still get a Ragnarok Zeta replica.

I just got my Lilith Rod Zeta Replica as well and I turned my zeta in earlier. Thank goodness that's not an issue given I've worked hard enough to get my relics.

Did you complete the zodiac quest line "The Vital Tital" with Jalzahn? Not sure if that actually makes a difference but it is possible to have a Zeta without actually completing the while quest line 100%

Did you complete the zodiac quest line "The Vital Tital" with Jalzahn?

As I just discovered a few minutes ago, apparently no, I did not.

But this was NOT listed as a requirement anywhere, and was NOT necessary to get your Zeta!!!

Uh I have my Zeta Replica on Drake... o_o

[AsteriaStarfall]

Already turned in my zeta, then read this post. Can confirm that Drake DOES still allow you to buy the replacement zeta even if you no longer have the original in hand.

[KirakunAUS]

Confirmed.
Traded in before coming to Drake.

have option for "Zodiac Weapon Zeta Replication"
