    I don't think people would have minded it if crafters were able to create a base weapon (kinda like in 2.0)for the new anima. For those with Zeta they could easily skip this step + atma stone, too. Certainly seems to be a better "bonus" for completing the Zeta.

    Once the market value does down instead of the 6mil you would of had you only made 3 once the new weapons roll out and they don't update anima weapons again you spent how much on that just so its a high priced glamour. My cousin read this and said people used to say the same thing in FFXI but hows that 20million scorpion harness +1 oh that's right its only 200k now.

    There is no content that requires you to have 210 weapons and so you spent that much on few extra damage even though everything is easy to walk over.

    By the time the weapon becomes relevant its gonna be obsolete and sure you say its not a loss but I much rather have that 3 mil plus the 3 made instead of blowing it all on something that gives a tiny bit of damage.
    With your logic, gil is and always will be worthless.
    You can technically play this game on just tomestone gear alone, ad infinitum.

    ...except people like having shiny things. The relic is to some people a shiny thing worth spending gil on.

    Having learned from the old Zodiac weapons, I provisioned gil for relic expenses too. *high five for preparedness*

    Come to Excalibur, you can get pre-made mats around 4 mil total and a bit less if you can get someone to craft them for you.

    Looks like my second one will cost 4-5 million on Jenova. I really hope they don't make the next step a gil sink.

    Nice, thanks, I actually still need mirrors and axes. Will send you a tell, only on 26 UI so far, so it's no big rush.

    uhm, its not a gil sink

    the gil amount on the server remains the same

    the 125 relic was a gil sink because it required you to spend 400k for npc items

    A large number of people complaining that they had to spend a lot of money are going off MB prices. The MB has taxes.

    Taxes are removed if you buy an item from its home nation (IE: If the retainer is gridania, go to gridania and you won't have a tax).

    So still, this isn't a gil sink in the slightest. As I keep telling people you can do the whole step completely for free, it just requires to not be lazy, gather mats, and talk to people. (Though I'm aware some crafters will charge you for their time it's still never that much..)
