Relic: Your progress on the Grind.

[Ghishlain]

14/80 on my third healer relic and 3/5 Aether Oils on my second. Slowly but surely I will get my three healer relics xD

[DisFlavored]

I just wanted to pop in here and say, I FRICKIN FINISHED MY FIRST RELIC AT 3 AM THIS MORNING!
I've been very slowly accruing my 80 items since relic dropped. The past 2 or so months, I added Beast Tribe to my dailies. And for the last month, I've been gathering up all the raw materials I needed for the crafted items (HQing what I could). Found some amazing crafters, bought my last two items, and pulled the Aether Oils off my retainer. I'm so happy ;_; but omg the grind was horrible >.>

If you're talking about the standard relic, still on the Animus phase (need to complete 8 more books). For Heavensward, no progress yet.

MASTER HAS GIVEN DOBBY A HYPERCONDUCTIVE DENEB



DOBBY IS FREE

So close... just six more items, a handful of crystals, and 10 dungeons.

ETA: Saturday Afternoon assuming social life doesn't get in the way (it will)

The HW relic isn't worth the grind. At least the ARR relic had you going to all the maps and grinding FATEs; so by the end of it, you spent endless hours fighting several different things. With HW, they jumped straight into raid humping for an ungodly amount of time, and they chose the 4 raids that everyone was already sick to death of running.

At least for step 2 they pulled their heads somewhat out of their ass and brought interest back to Crystal Tower; but that first grind is nauseating and shows the devs to be remarkably lazy in its concern.

17 Bone, 12 ore, 7 shells, 11 seeds, 3 Aether Oils and 8 of the necessary craft able items. I'm still a bit off but I'm finally seeing light at the end of the tunnel. It's not looking so bleak anymore.

Update: I now have 66/80, I need 4 more hq items, and 4/5 oils. I am getting my last oil on Tuesday.

You realise there is a lot of other ways to get the Unidentified items right? I don't think I got one from Gordias.

As for me I have my first 230 Anima (whm) and a bunch others at the second (200) step. I actually have gotten enough materials now to max out a second Anima but decided to wait till that 3rd step sees a nerf so I can trade in my spoils and get more completed animas.

All the other ways are boring too. Grind yo Beast Tribes for 5-6 days for 1 token, grind yo tomestones, grind out yo RNG maps, grind yo hunts, grind yo boring ass raid no one wants to run. Need crafted items? Better grind out some gil too.

Would not do it again. It takes much less effort to run Midas 4 once a week and 3 weeks of Lore farm to get a 230 weapon.
