Yea but I dont think just changing the quest would be enough to make it interesing and really unique for each Job. Theres nothing that makes you wait, you could blow through everything in a few days. XI had quests that made you wait in them. I remember both the samarai job unlock quest and chocobo feeding quest as 2 of them. I didn't play long enough to experience others. But the samurai job quest was FAR more interesting than A Relic Reborn is, and it didn't give you a super powerful weapon for completion either! thats why I think they could do much better with quests for relics.

FFXI did have better things in it just because you could not spam anything forever. things forced you to stay out like dynamis you were lock out, BCNM's you needed orbs you had to buy with beastmen seals.

the better quest would have to be a slow gain thats not lucky and have you do things that dont require deepest pockets on the server. they should drop old weapons like FFXI did then upgrade. i think they should of just gave us AF weapons which the seem to have skiped then waited for relic in ARR. we have alot of beastmen currency should put that into play like they did with ffxi.

right now its crap just pure luck on everything or buy a pre-meld weapon then everything else is pure luck and all the quest are the same.

these weapons are upgradable and maybe they will add a lot more to the story of them with a lvl cap increase.

That wouldn't make A Relic Reborn any less of a lame compilation of reused-content that is nearly identical for every single weapon, and really takes no time at all to complete for 'the most prized weapons' in the game. But thats all they had to go on in 1.0. They could, and hopefully will, do better in ARR with the current relics and the ones that come afterword.

lets face it. the relic quest was a grind made up of rehashed content(mostly) to keep us busy til ARR since they had already moved almost all the staff to the ARR team and were working with limited manpower and funds for 1.0 version. I wouldn't be to upset over it.

I would prefer a really cool (and difficult) Questline to obtain Relics in ARR (not the crap we had with 1.0) instead of keeping the free ones.

[Reika]

They could make 7 separate quests that took out all RNG, and still would take no less than 1 month to complete. I think that would be much better than the current relic quest. Hell, all the other Job equipment quests were different and unique to the job, the chest at least, so I dont see why the weapon quest has to be something so pisspoor like they have now. If they didn't want people getting a relic in less than 5 days, they'll make something like that happen.

It doens't have to be a right at launch kind of thing either....

Wall of text.

They tried your way in the beginning when crafters/gatherers could solo the main questline. How'd that work out?

[Momita]

Why do so many people say getting a relic is all about luck? Lol. Seals are really only about luck if you pug. They are very common drops most the time (though I have seens many runs without them, they are still pretty common). If you just buy a double meld then you take the luck out of that since someone else wasted their time to do it and usually there are always double melds up. Killing stronghold NM isn't luck. Doing 17 cc/av isn't luck. Doing 15 DH isn't luck. 1k Caravan can somewhat be luck but also requires non lucky things to get it. Behest doesn't require luck. Currency I guess can be considered luck if you farm since it has RNG of dropping? You can buy currency off wards though. SBing isn't luck. The leves aren't luck. Garuda isn't luck, Ifrit Extreme isn't luck.

Wow..... getting a relic really requires a lot of luck el oh el.
