new relic weapon

[Jilliebeans]

so i am not a big fan of the "grind" + the glamour for this new relic, can i skip this 1 and wait for the new 1 to be release? does it require me to have the previous relic to continue with the new 1?

No, you need to do every step .

No, you need to do every step .

tell me you are joking? :P

Like every other Relic chain. You need the previous version to progress to the next stage.

Yep. This is the way of things. Welcome to relic grinding, OP!

It depends on what you mean by 'next relic' and 'previous relic'.

If you mean, can you wait until the next expansion and do the relic in that one without requiring you to have finished this one, presumably yes; you don't need to have finished Eureka relics to start the Bozjan relics, after all, nor did you have to finish Anima relics to start Eurekan ones. (You could trade in a Zodiac relic for a head start on an Anima weapon, but I don't think they've done that since.)

If you mean, can you skip this stage of this relic and wait for the next stage of this relic, no. No more than you can decide you don't care about the Stormblood MSQ in Ala Mhigo and just skip ahead to the Doma bit. Or decide you want to do savage raids but don't care about doing the normal ones first. (Or that you want to do Ultimate content but don't want to bother with unlocking it via Savage first.)

Reasons I ran screaming and throwing myself into savage in SB, OP. GL!

The long and the short of it is that Relics are and have always been a top-tier bragging item for people to wave around and say "I pumped a bunch of time and resources into this item, and now it glows!"

Think of it like getting a weapon from TEA; it's difficult, time consuming, and the weapons are never going to be best in slot for a significant period of time, but if the bragging rights are worth it to you, it's a completely attainable goal.-

All previous steps required, so it is quite an investment, but it has only been such for the previous 2 steps, otherwise, the base weapon just requires 1000 Poetics (Or free if it is your first)- You can get the previous stage out of the way in a day, and this one in approximate 2 1/2 days I want to say.

One way to look at these, or perspective to find the motivation; in doing this stage of the relic you'll be getting poetics which can go towards both Zeta and Anima weapons from the ARR/HW relic chains respectively!

Nope. The only joke here is on all of us willing to do all the steps (which all have to be done). Better get in on Bozjan ASAFP. Before it dies to where no one can get enough people to get through it.
