    I prefer this method of obtaining relics (which is actually the same as every other iteration, it just lets you choose what thing you're going to grind). And I like the look and effect on the final stage weapons.
    What's wrong with the tomestone weapons?

    Because You can only get 450 tomestone a week. The gate keeping sucks.

    Ah yes, the grind where I already have the tomestones when the patch drops and get the weapon for free.

    This method is complete bullshit. I've just been redoing Eureka and Bozja and these relics involved work not just hand me 1500 tomes which I can get in running a few EW hunts in a few hours at most. Talk about a lazy way to get a relic this is it. So happy new zones are on the way and that people who want relics will actually have to work for them.

    The problem is they chose a resource that is shared between multiple different things in the game, making it obnoxious to deal with in a lot of regards. Crafting materials that need tomestones and the materials for upgrading the crafting armor both use those tomestones. And when someone says that we get to choose what content we are doing: So basically Roulette and hunts? I guess if you are max level maybe you just coincidently get a small amount from pvp.

    What makes relic grinds typically better is when there are steps you can do while you are sitting around in PF waiting for groups. Thanks to the DC travel and how they engineered this relic the FFXIV experience has been pretty lackluster after probably patch 6.1 or 6.2. I can't really remember when it hit since it has been so long.

    That's fine if you have that stuff leveled up but if you don't then you're at the mercy of the MB and as we found out in the early relics, people aren't kind to those looking for those mats.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    I mean, even so much as being able to do fates to get progress is better than nothing.

Not only because of how lazy it feels but also because the final stage isn't satisfying to me at all. Firstly, where are the matte/alternative versions? ARR, SB, & SHB all had matte versions. HW had an alternative color version. What went wrong with EW? The 6.45 versions were so damn good in my opinion, and then we went onto the "Beep Boop Omega-Styled Extreme Vibed" final stage relic. I don't get what's the obsession of technological weapons as Relics. They're called 'Relics' for a reason. Grindy, Stages that aren't the same grind all the damn time and pretty unique ones. This just gives omega but at-home vibes. Honestly, I expected much more 'Fantasy' vibes, like the other damn relics. I can see why it's called a Tome Relic as a joke. They better not disappoint for DT, but yet again. This is Square Enix. Gotta listen to all the players and satisfy no one, don't we? Another thing I must question is Why aren't the damn AST cards, SCH & SMN pages, and the MCH box thing never changing. They don't fit the "Technology" vibes at all. I can understand that for a few other weapons but not these. They should've really saved these weapons for the new zone in DT, so that we can have armor that actually looks good with it. Make it make sense.

    I just think they are as ugly as sin, even worse than the Bozjob versions.
