I completed 15 runs of Crystal Tower and then was told to get 18 memories from HW Alliance raids or Gyr Abania FATEs and then 18 memories from either Ivalice or Far Eastern FATEs. Had I known that the FATEs is random drop this time around, I probably would not have progressed further. I was doing those FATEs for three hours alongside many other players who had the same idea (was levelling my Blue Mage at the same time, to kill two birds in one stone) and boy got only 1 memory. At this rate, the Alliance Raids would be faster. I may have to go through this because my main job relic is currently not glowing having done the previous step. I will definitely not do this for all my other jobs.
It got confirmed once you complete the Void Ark/Ivalice memories you won't need to do them again for more weapons, Crystal Tower however you will need to. Just join the Blue Mage Alliance they absolutely destroy them, Blue Mage Alliance can Syrcus Tower in 10 mins tops.
