Stuck on kinna weapon any tips on the fastest way to get something better

[bswpayton]

So Ill admit as I've said a good bit on these forums I've taken my time so I guess I may have brought this on myself but I dont regret it because its been a super fun journey. So I know they changed anima steps or Ive heard but how much does it knock it down to can you now get more than one leveled to 260 or higher in less than a month or is it still a very long process.

Right now I have three kinna weapons, and Id say I pretty much main three tanks I literally just switch out each per duty so I would really love to be able to get the best weapons for each. So my question is how can I get past the 255 weapon stage I want something better I still have three hw primals to clear, sophia, zur, and nidhogg cause Im not done with dragon song yet.

Cleared the other four with my kinna but I want to be able to do more damage and I know I need a better weapon. Is zur still gona be the easiest currently cause I know shire is on a weekly lock out , and Im wondering how much easier it is for anima now so please help with tips Id like to start pushing towards doing all the content I have left like more savage before storm blood ,etc but I feel like need a better weapon.

The Anima is still long process and grind. They reduce the price of the items for some of the steps on some items but it is still a grind, the Crystal Sand that is needed with the Umbrite wasn't changed, it is still a grind to get those. The light farming step wasn't changed.

Just takes a lot of tomes and time.

Umbrite is now 150 instead of 300 tomes.

Yes but the sand is still the problem and takes awhile to get.

Sand is no problem at all. Use Poetics to trade items in, use levels to look for vilekin (abandon if not there), trade in scrips etc.

my advice would be do Sophia to get that weapon, Zurvan if you think you can do it. Otherwise there is the Shire Weapon (need 7 alexander tokens and 1000 scripture though).

Trust me. you can clear Sophia EASILY with kinna weapon. the weapon is the same ilvl. just has better stats

Im pretty confident I can clear zur, tbh crazy to say but I hate platforms so out of all the hw primals sophia will prob be the one I dont like the most. But I know with zur juding from the video doesnt look to hard to mt it I had been doing alex 12 as I was gearing up Its just that rng is pretty ruff sometimes Ill go in there and dont get anything at all.

Sand is actually easy if you know what to trade. for me I use craft items fairly easy and there's more than one way to get sand. That or ask your FC for materials. I run a small team FC, rank 8 , large, and my FC members get the items from airship expeditions or I craft it for them as long as they get me the seal items for it. 80 sand easy in a week or less by trading gear for CS and really fast. Never hurts to ask for help ^^. So far on fifth working on Umbrite and that is before current nerf. Depending on your FC rep I'm sure they would be willing to help.

You can also trade unidentifiable stuff for sand now as well.

Raid weps / EXTREME Weps or youc an do a relic been nerfed but still a grind. If you have crafting up is very easy if you have airship access. Otherwise craft away or start getting alternate items from raids and suck even leves.

Zurvan EX would be your fastest upgrade.
