Relic: Your progress on the Grind.

[CuteWhisper]

Update...

Im at 5/80 16/16 2/5 but I dont know if I want to keep at it. Im not even sure which healing class I want to main yet... I really dont like this 3.0 relic step.

Im now that 11/80 16/16 5/5. Im not rushing it anymore, and just going it at my pace. Not even sure which healer I want to main anymore anyways. I am leveling SCH now, and liking it.

Its best to go at it casually and not stress yourself out, once you've got all the items you'll just need to have a good think of which healer deserves it the most.

Have completed bard and drk relics.... Iono... If a start a third one...someone shoot me pls... :x

If I complete a 5th though I should be allowed to summon a megazord mount.

But then I'd have to farm like 5 really hard to get coins and I'm not sure how I feel about that. And of course, having a evil witch hunt me down wouldn't be great either. But likely I'd probably just mess up her plans most of the time, so that's good I guess.

I was in no huge hurry. The only reason the first one went so long was because I fell asleep while in queue.

Our FC airships eventually came back from hunting Zu tokens, so I got it done with one of those:



And I should get my final oil for the i230 tomorrow, so good timing!

@Ibi

Gratz on finishing your i210 Relic!

These Crafted Mats are going to be a pain though, but I will finish this.

Honestly, the entire relic weapon system feels like some small niche of die hards somewhere screamed: I want my old school grind! And then the developers decided to throw this in there. I wouldn't be bothered by it so much if it was more designed around some tough fights you need to bring three buddies along with to complete or something along with a good quest chain built around pushing your class knowledge to the extreme. Right now this is almost pointless to do.

Actually the reverse is true. Relic is something for casuals to work towards over a series of months. Hardcore raiders will have raid weapons, which are always available sooner and are usually stronger.

I'm not saying I agree with it, because I don't, but poopsocking your way to anima in the first week was never intended. You WILL eventually get it if you're playing regularly. Unless you're spending all your eso on something else and you're not doing beast tribes at all.

Oh, no what I meant is make getting the weapon about proving ones skill as a player on a small scale that is doable solo or in a small group, like with some of the weapon quests from Vanilla WoW. The part that made the WoW ones fail was that to get the items to start the quest chains, one had to get lucky in a 40 man raid instance. They can make challenges that work for casual players but still feel enjoyable: Dark Souls has done this in spades. The trouble with Relic grinds is not that they are too casual, it's that they are too tedious because the content they make people do doesn't really overlap with the activities they promote otherwise in other areas.

I'm having so much trouble getting the unidentified items. I have 0/7/1/20. Maybe I should figure out beast tribes to see if that will make it easier. Any tips are appreciated

Just do roulettes and hunts. I'm not sure what time you have available but you should get a bunch that way.
