Relic nerf

[MrsFluffyButt]

Doesn't need a nerf. It's not hard, jus time consuming. Unlike the original relic, this one isnt based on RNG for the most part, you can make progress fast or take your time. So no, this shouldn't be nerfed, wait for the As4 weapons to be obtainable if you're lazy.

Just a hypothesis, but more than likely neither the crafted items req or the beast tribe token reqs will be nerfed; I'm speculating the alex grind will be(probably increased on a patch cycle, from 1 drop a run to 2, 3, hard cap at 4 for xpac) and the fate farm grind will be reduced by increasing crystal drop rate, based off how they implemented the ease of grind for light and atma for 2.0-2.55.

Took them ages to nerf the ARR relic. I dont see it happening any time in 3.2. Might happen in 3.3 if you're lucky.

Just to be clear what did they nerf in the previous ARR relic weapon? I remember they upped the Atma drops but that's all I remember..

nerfed everything; book fates, atma drops, light for nexus and zeta, zodiac dungeon drops.

They increased the amount of light you farmed per instance, though from what I remember it still took a while.

Previous relic didn't get nerfed until closer to 3.0. You should expect the same with this one. Get grinding or let it come naturally as your tomes do.

Everything that currently gives law will give esoterics instead so we'll be getting eso tomes in the quantities we currently receive law. It'll be the new tomestone that is scarce. Based on the conversions this should mean that the items become considerably cheaper to obtain... but I wouldn't be surprised if SE doesn't reduce the prices at all in order to avoid nerfing the stage prior to the release of the next one.

In all the 2.x updates, where a tome got replaced, the reward of the 2nd best tome got first reduced and in the next patch increased again.

Increased light reward, reduced the amount of enemies you have to kill for books, increased Alexandrite drops, increased dungeon keyitem droprate, reduced tome prices.

The biggest thing I would like to see nerfed is the crafted turn ins. I am not a crafter and even if I started today it would take MONTHS to get the crafters up to 60. And by then the relic would only be good for glam purposes.

Neeeeeh
First it doesn't take months... You need 2 weeks top to be at least 50 in the 8 crafting job
Then maybe 1 week or less to be 60 in the 3 job you want as specialiste
(Because yeah... You can only craft 3 item out of the 8 required)

Took me less than 3 week to be 50 in all DoH just by myself
Right before ixali where introduced !

Nothing is impossible and it won't eat your gils !
