[Feedback Relic Weapon] SE needs to change their method with Relics.

[Bourne_Endeavor]

remember people! the relic step is a process. that process hasn't been finished yet. You won't get the best weapon in the end of the expansion unless you complete Anemos/Pagos first. who cares what the intermediary steps power level is. Yes there are other better options available RIGHT NOW. but this is a future investment.

And that future investment will come around March or April when the tier is long dead, and the expansion is only a couple months away. In previous iterations, the relic was a decent weapon for alt jobs. Nowadays, it's decent for only two months out of a two year expansion. This also assumes we will be able to customization the stats at some point. If not, BRD, WHM, SCH, AST and MNK will either be inferior outright or debatably so.

This is huge btw. The relic only ever had a ghost of a chance of competing with raid weapons due to being able to set and reset the stats at will. If this doesn't happen, there's no point in the relic as the upgraded tome weapon will really be good enough for clearing everything in the game, raids included. Even more so if they go HW DRG/DRK and put complete trash stats on the raid weapons (Parry/SS LMAO)
