new relic weapon

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!

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.

well you won't have to have this completed to do the 6.0 relic, but you'll be waiting a long time for that.

In my 5+ years of playing I have never posted on this forum. This new relic has made me come on here just to say how absurd this step of the relic is.

No other relic step as been this crazy, and its in old content. Its just lazy on SE's part. To get the first step done you are looking on 30+ hours of grinding old content that we have been playing for years. I leveld my secondary class which is whm because thats what I have been using in Bozjan. I will never do this again even if it is 36 raids less. I dont even care if I dont have this on my main class. Its not worth it. I wouldnt even finish this thing if I hadnt already ran 51 raids.

Needed to vent because this is insane, this is coming from someone that has no problem with grinding stuff.

Been this way since ARR, no reason they'd change it this time.

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.)
