    Is this another "Gotcha" thread? No one here is getting paid to come up with the team's ideas for them. And ever since they outgrew the "apologies for 1.0" phase they ignore 99% of the good ideas that get posted in any language in the suggestions forums.

    They're being paid to do this. Very few games bother charging a subscription.

    Best of both worlds:
    Obtain 15 of X item. Which drops from the Mhachi/Nier raids (3 per run), Criterion dungeons (3), Variant dungeons (1), the Hildebrand trials (1), or can be bought for 100 Tomestones of Astronomy.
    People can mix and match the content they want.

    Edit: A bit of refinement after actually doing this step myself:

    Step 1 (one time only): To find Pupu's friend you need to search for clues of things that are 'out of this world', gather 'out of this world' items to see if we can deduce a pattern and identify things that may be 'out of this world'.
    Collect 5 'Otherworldly Mineral's
    Obtained by: Drops from Nier Raids, Can be bought from Omicron Bicolour Gemstone vendor for 100 BG's.
    You can choose which route you take, or can mix and match as necessary. Incentivises running Nier raids, contributing to filling queues.

    Step 2 (one time only): Collect materials to produce Salamanderville.
    Collect 3 unique items.
    Obtained by: One drops from Mhachi Raids, one drops from The Sil'dihn Subterrane, one can be bought with Crafter/Gatherer White Scripts, all of them can be bought for 200 Tomestones of Astronomy.
    Incentivises Mhachi raids, Variant dungeons, and involves crafting/gathering, but there's also the option to just dump Astronomy as well.

    Step 3 (repeatable, per weapon):
    Collect 5 'Complementary Chondrite's
    Obtained by: Drops from 'Battle on the Big Bridge', 'Battle in the Big Keep' or 'Kugane Ohashi', Can be bought for 200 Tomestones of Astronomy.
    You can choose which route you take, or can mix and match as necessary. Incentivises running Gilgamesh trials, contributing to filling queues and helping others complete the prerequisite quests.

    Gather ingredients for special Salamander Oil and bribe Gerolt to lather and knead it within Godbert's skin instead of us. xD

    People are complaing about 1500 tomes for this one... But idk how running Alliance Raids ad nauseum, or mindless spamming fates with 10% drop rates of something would be any better.

    The only way I can see a relic grind being actually good is how Stormblood had it. Eureka was the best relic grind... because it was content designed WITH that in mind..

    I don't see a long time investment in a zone like Eureka bad for a relic weapon, simply because they aren't BIS until the tail end of the expansion, where it doesn't really matter anymore.

    Honestly for this step they should have brought the books back,
    cost about 500-1000 poetics/current tome
    complete all 4 get your relic but contents of said books are based on expansion
    ARR,HW,SB,SHB.
    No fates or hunting log stuff its just MSQ trials and Dungeons so HW book is Arf,xelph,Theordon nidhogg etc etc to not just make it easier for new people to get into these duties but considering EW is the climax of the story as a recollection of what we've been through.


    Story line for this relic is ok but I don't think it was the right time to use Hildibrand.

    Eureka-style, that is all.

    I don't mind the "new" relic step, but I'd be lying if I said the acquisition method isn't kinda underwhelming.

    Make all EW relic steps chill... but then.

    - If you have a finished relic from some other expansion for given job you unlock one extra cool appearance for the EW relic - for each other relic you have
    - if you have all relics for given job you unlock yet another and more flashy appearance for the EW relic
    - if you have all relics for every job you unlock super awesone relic appearance for every job and the title "The Grinder"
    - if you have all relics for every job and you unlocked kettle nexus you also get lalafellin lifter nexus as well as a set of kettle-level-goofy weapon appearances for each job and the title "I am the grind".

    Book season is now open...
