The 5.X era Relic Weapons

[EdwinLi]

So what do you think maybe or hope the upcoming 5.X era Relic Weapons are?

For me, I do hope we get True Lionheart as Gunbreaker's 5.X era Relic Weapon (unless they give it out for free from a special event (hopefully not exclusive to Mogstation ))

currently they have the HD version only in FF Mobius (not in FF Dissidia NT sadly)

I'm intrigued what names they'll use for the final forms as they've already dug up most of the XI REMA names. I'm hoping they end up like our AF and are based off our ARR weapons or take cues from them somehow. How this would work for newer jobs? That's up to them I guess.

I'm just wanting to be able to start working on them.

Part of the reason why I am a little bit hesitant to spend my tomes on the Tome weapon since I know they are soon to arrive so I can start farming for my GNB Relic weapon which would then replace that weapon

I really wish expansions could launch with some Relic content... Can't say I'm a fan of this "Do a very basic Job (or I guess Role now) quest for AF + weapon" that Stormblood started... I much preferred 2.0s launch with the Relic Reborn quests for each Job, I get that was largely carried over from 1.x so less work needed to go into it, but still... It was a nice bit of lite endgame content to do after hitting the level cap, and this game honestly needs more endgame content... More variety of, at least...

I agree with with. Expansions should launch with relics to do. That way when the slow cycles hit you have something to do instead of having to wait 3-6 months to start it.

After the mess that were the 4.X relics and Eureka, I'm unsure whether I even want another incarnation.

[Duskane]

Well I hope it's something different or a improved version of Eureka

Redoing older content for a new relic is just bad
But probably won't be the case since why would a relic in the first send you to the source

[Selova]

Not to be tied to whatever Eureka 2.0 is.

I just hope they really go for a route that allows multiple relic-progression, make it less grindy. Even if NEETs get their 15 relics on week 1 or whatever, idc. I want a fun rewarding experience that also is meaningful progress.
Eureka would have a hella better recived if it was a tad less grindy. Maybe as it had FATEs, also had "Hunts". For what it was, it wasn't bad if it had been a "shorter experience". Pagos irredeemable though.

Besides, it would promote "replayability".

But this problem will never end really. There should be an alternative way to develop our characters than merely rising iLvls...
