Anima Update - Item Level

[Rai_Takara]

Relic will always be one step behind the highest raid weapon of the tier until the end of the tier (where the relic will be on par).

As people have mentioned before, it's harder to get raid weapons than do the relic. I do wish they started relic on start of a new tier so that there are more options and ilevels to work through.

Just to give the timeline, next anima step likely plays out the same as Midas did. Plus why 260 makes sense.

From week 1:
-i255 Sophia Extreme
-i260 A10S Micro tome drop + 1000 Scripture. Realistically the earliest they could be bought was first day of week 3.
-i270 A11S Gobdip upgrade drop
-i275 A12S drop

From week 6:
-i255 new PoTD. Another option for those that did not get a weapon from Sophia Extreme.
-i260 Anima. Those current with 240 step will get an opportunity to get an upgrade before those that don't have a current anima.

From week 7:
-i260 Free Alexander Micro-tome after 7 weeks of A12N + 1000 scripture, for those that don't raid Alex Savage or have an anima.

Looks like they will be ilvl 260 from looking at the patch notes.

Hope that the final step dont reach i275, raiders are supposed to have the best gear :3

The creator drg spear would like a word with you

I know, right? The ironic sense of naming is so tongue in cheek, I don't know whether to chuckle or just cringe.

It was a given that it wasn't gonna match raid weapons until the final patch, where it then becomes BiS for everyone

It was a given that it wasn't gonna match raid weapons until the final patch, where it then becomes BiS for everyone

And its useless by then with the next expansion coming its nothing but pandering to the raiders who are a small % of the player pop
