As the title suggests, I've taken interest in the old anima content for glam. This step, however, puzzles me. Do I...actually need to run around ex dungeons with 110 il weapons? The explanation in game was vague, and google mainly brings up the most effective places to light farm.

Is Nexus even worth lowering my dps that drastically? Is there a way--if I'm required to have them equipped--to solo content with high bonuses so I don't weigh down a A9-12 group?
