The Relic Weapons

[bass9020]

Alexandrite was the worst part by far.. I hated every moment of that step.

The books? I thought they were fine. Kill 10 of this. Do that leve. Wait for that FATE. Fine, cool. Leveled Pokemon while waiting for a FATE, no biggie. But even thinking about Alexandrite still gives me headaches.

Yep I totally agree, the books I enjoyed I even liked the UI for them! I will never understand the hate for them.

OP is clearly trolling. The 12 atma at launch were hard to gether and then the alexandrite phase, OMG, and lets not talk about light gathering and light bonus windows. And those books( before the nerf), they were terrible grind. If anything the anima weapon is less than half the work of the old relic weapon questline.

Anima weapon is fine, dont change anything devs.

May be he started to play the game when it was already needed or got amnesia and only remember the after nerfed and think that happened when it just came out.

I agree it can be a long process but difficult? Not particularly. Do the roulettes and it would take you a little over a month to get the necessary amount of Umbrites (80 max). If you throw a couple of ARF runs in there you decrease that time even more. Is it grindy as hell? Yeah, absolutely. It does seem like a lot of work for a 2nd tier weapon though, but I am not inclined to do Savage to try and get the 240 lore weapon/ 245 Alexander weapons so I will gladly shoot for the 240 relic.

3) Alexandrite (hated that part so much, drop rate was even worse than the fate crystals)

You did it wrong.
Most people ignored the FATEs and farmed the alexandrites with daily expert dungeon quest and hunt.

Not that it matters but yes I did do that too. However to that time I was able to play 19 hrs a day. I wasn't gonna sit there and wait for the daily reset or hunts to respawn, I tried farming fates on top of that in between our raids, to get the weapon faster.
