The Relic/Zodiac weapons are outdated now and you will get better stuff going through the Heavensward storyline. That said, they are unique weapon models and most of them look pretty awesome even compared to newer gear so if you want a specific one it might be something you will be able to do on the side. The process getting it is much faster than it used to be but it still will take quite a lot of time.

Finishing a Zodiac weapon lets you skip the first phase of the Anima weapon questline but thanks to a recent patch that first step is a lot less time-consuming than it used to be so I would just start there if you want to work on Anima weapons.

Since no one has mentioned it, I'd recommend getting to max rank in your Grand Company since the hunt system is locked behind that. It's a nice bit of XP and currency while leveling stuff up in Heavensward and it will give you a little bit of a head start in gear once you hit 60.
