Thread: What are you looking forward to most in 6.45?

It's still a few hours before the servers will be up, but what are you looking forward to the most?

I can't decide between BLU and new crafting/gathering relics. I love Manderville so excited for new quests and those relics. My heart just belongs more to tradeskilling.

Going to check out the new Variant. Psyched to be traveling with Hancock. I always liked him.

What is everyone else going to do first?

I am looking forward to what reapers new relic looks like.

Ooo yes. I liked the last one though unfortunately this step will go back to no effect I believe.

[QUOTE=AwesomeJr44;6297671]I'd imagine that this set of relics is going to be the joke weapons from the design contest. It was pretty obvious that those ones won because they were good candidates for being manderville relics, and we've already received the more serious half of the entries with the current tier's tomestone weapons.

This one:


I can also see those in gold saucer. Time will tell in the end if it is the joke weapon winners or a different look. I won't be too picky on my slashy slashy weapon.

These will most likely be some sort of Gold Saucer rewards are my guess.

On one hand, it is far more likely to have 'funny' weapons be in Saucer, just generally.

On the other, having the 'middle' stage of Manderville relics be funny joke weapons is extremely fitting thematically. That way, there's the 'basic' first version, the 'funny' second version and the 'cool' third version. Weapons completely changing aesthetic with model changing is nothing new in relic stages already, so might as well go all in, is the possibility.

Given the story they're telling that these are ancient Manderville family weapons of some renown and importance, I just don't see it likely. We'll see when the servers open and people start getting them.

Plus I think Gerolt would fall over into his grave if asked to make something like that. He's played for fun but he's a master craftsman.

Blue Mage.

If nothing else, it's always a fun diversion for me.

I am looking forward to the amazing relic grind that rivals Bozja and Eureka in depth and complexity and makes us all want to play the game actually and not despair in endless roulettes to grind the next 1500 tomes. Oh...wait...

EW was a mistake.
