If these Resplendent are Relics, they're what, higher level than the present 510 Skybuilder's Relics?

Good thing they aren't relics. The relics are the Skybuilder's tools that required the quest chain that took them through the steps Skysteel-Dragonsung-Skysung-Skybuilder.

These are new tools that part of the crafting community asked to receive as a reward for doing the hardest crafting in the game. We don't even know that these tools will have stats on them. They may be purely cosmetic.

Personally I would have preferred getting secondary tools to complement the Skybuilder tools as the Expert reward but oh well.

Need to remember this is only part of what we're getting for MSQ. The other half will come in 5.55 and those quests will be listed in the 5.55 patch notes.

Ayup; a set of matching Offhands for the Dragonsung stuff would have been cool. Sigh.

You do realize there's an ocean of difference between being easy and being the hardest content that segment of the game has to offer right?

But I guess not in this world where it's only black or white.

And if they're higher ilvl than the relics. . . doesn't that negate the entire DOH relic process of this expansion? The entire point of a relic is you build the best weapon the expansion has to offer over a longer period of time.

Right now the Penta-melded HQ Aesthete's is better than the current Relic. The next step was supposed to make the relic beat that item. Guess not.

Yes, the patch notes say you have to have a complete party to use the Limited Leveling Roulette setting:

That's like requiring the DoW relic to complete savage level content in order to finish it.

IMHO this is bad design.




Meme is very much still alive if you use leveling roulette. The change only applies to pre-formed parties.

Expert crafts really aren't that hard... monotonous certainly, hard not at all.
