    I really thought those resplendent tools were going to be the victory lap for those who grinded skybuilder's tool (only craftable with Skybuilder's Tool Equipped) to entice people to actually make the relics but boy oh boy, never went from 100% hype to totally deflated so fast. Had to buy a cheeseburger to cheer myself up.

    If they were victory laps for the Skybuilders' Tools, it'd have been SOOOOOOOOO GOOD! Imagine if they were just a another few more Expert Recipes (perhaps even harder recipes, but only need like 20) using the Skybuilders' Tools to craft, it'd have been perfect...

    Now they're just stupid... They serve absolutely no purpose! It's practically an alternative to Skybuilders in terms of stats. But it is a VERY steep grind that involves some very hard recipes. Isn't that exactly what the Skysteel tool quest was all about? We honestly don't need another Skysteel tool quest just to get another set of Skybuilders' Tools.... especially NOT right after we just finished Skybuilders' Tools!

    to grind or not to grind...

    Thank goodness for this thread. I was having anxiety over this heinous looking grind. Now that i see others feel the same i can rest easy not doing these. Thanks everyone for the voices of reason. Cheers

    Honestly, they need to quick-fix this, otherwise, they're just a total waste of some very nicely designed glam tools...

    They should have just saved these nice glams for Endwalker... Why release them now in such a horrible way?
