Suggestion for Weapon Enhancement (relics) steps and option

[kevin_satron]

For getting a weapon ilv 630 (-5 ilv compare to savage weapon), should stay the same with 1500 tomestone. You can get glowing and dyeable weapon with it.

There should be an option to upgrade the weapon to ilv 635 (same as savage weapon). You can adjust the stats too (and maybe have 5 materia slots) like from previous expansions. Like you have to do fates grind, old dungeon (SB and ShB), old raids (Omega and Eden), and old alliance raid (Ivalice and Nier). Just like heavensward's early steps

And you don't need to do the upgrade option to do the next phase, can stick with ilv 630.

Because of the Manderville relic is of epic quality, compared to the rare Abyssos weapon, the Manderville has more total sub-stats compared the Abyssos. 566 total sub-stats for the Manderville compared to 488 for the Abyssos. So you are comparing 1 weapon/magic damage (or constant damage) against 78 sub-stats (or rng damage). In addition, relics don't normally have the extra 5 item levels until the very last step. So in 6.55, the manderville relic will be 565 like the savage raid weapon, but will have extra sub-stats than the raid weapon (thus best-in-slot)
