I don't really understand how people can justify this. Even a regular ol crafted LEVEL 58 WEAPON is vastly more powerful than a 110 relic. Even a weapon from the FIRST LEVELING DUNGEON OF HW is more powerful than a 110 weapon. As much as I hate throwing deadweight into PVP, just doing like 5 Frontlines is enough to have an i235 weapon for one job baseline, completing ignoring stuff like Bismarck EX (designed for people in i140 gear), crafted gear (not all of it is the expensive i250 stuff), HUNTS (FFS easiest way to get a semi-decent weapon), or sacking Lore tomes to buy the i230 one (or doing the fairly easy, heavily nerfed relic steps up to the i230 point).

This person was either a troll, threw his actual weapon away accidentally which sucks but is NOT the problem of the 7 other people trying to clear the content, or equipped the wrong weapon by accident and for some heinous reason no one asked him about it in chat (didn't read the whole thread, have no clue if anyone even said anything to him). The fact that there are people defending this is just sad.
