- Weapons:
1. Lore Weapon: ilvl 230, 7x weekly A8 drop (gear) + 10*100 Lore (have to buy 10 tokens á 100 lore)
2. Primal weapons: Only Sephirot (ilvl 220) and Niddhog (ilvl 235) are relevant now, weapons are dropped or can be bought after 10 clears. Need some time to clear it.
3. Relic Weapon: ilvl 200-240. A lot of steps with a lot to do.. first fate farming, then thousands of poetics and esoterics and certain daily activities, weekly Crystal Tower quest and Esoterics again. Goes up to 240, but if you start now (casually) you may need a few months for that one.
- Also there is Midas savage which drops ilvl240 gear, ilvl245 weapon and Tokens to buy those things. But this content is the hardest one in the game.
