A Relic Reborn Walkthrough

[Nosiahk]

Question: I was on Ifrit EX in 1.0, do I start my relic quest on Titan HARD? However, I noticed that you have to defeat Ifrit HARD to unlock Garuda HARD, and defeat that to unlock Titan HARD? Basically, I have to restart the fight against Garuda HARD correct?

WAR = Barbarian's Bardiche + 2 Battledance III

I can confirm this.

Silly question, but is it possible to do any of these things out of order? For example... I can't activate the quests yet (haven't finished the main story), but if I did the weapon + double meld part, will it still count later on? Which (if any) parts are doable beforehand?

First things, thank you to everyone who contributes to this thread. I admit I have a bad habit of only checking the forums when I not playing, like when I'm locked out or at work, so if I don't update the first post in a timely manner that is why XD. Secondly if anyone is currently up to one of the bugged parts like the weapons or the mob kills, and will still be at the same point on the 4th, could you please let us know if they fix the bugs on the quest log? Thanks

For Bard kills for Beastmen is: 8x Natalan Boldwings, 8x Natalan Fogcallers and 8x Natalan Windtalons. Just to add to guide if you'd like

Thank you. Adding!

I believe BLM mobs for step 10 are the same as they seem to be for WHM.

Do you have direct confirmation of that? I would assume that the kills are the same for those who share a beastcamp but want to be 100% sure

I have 2 questions, are you 100% the summoner quest will work with the casting book?
Also I've heard you need Thavairian Mist from the Tomestomes, is this false or is it the next weapon?

Yes, casting book is confirmed. And I believe the Thavairian Mist has something to do with Relic +1. I heard somewhere that apparently the content for HQ relics is obtainable in the current patch, but I have no idea how.

Does one need to be at a certain step to get items to drop from Wanderer's palace or is it dropped there regardless?

The drops are not tied to being on the relic quest. You can farm them as per a normal dungeon

Also confirmed you need to Purchase "Bottle of Radz-at-Han Quenching Oil" for 900 Allagan Tomestones of Philosophy from Auriana in Mor Dhona after doing the Hardmodes. (This is for Bard, don't know if different for other jobs for the item needed but probably should still be the 900 tomestone ones)

Thank you. Adding this step. I didn't put a "quest end" note ad the end of step 14 cause I didn't know if that really was all. Please let us know if there are still further steps!

So.... I have the Picatrix of Casting needed for it but I don't have the Savage Might... Anyone know what I can break down to get them? I'd prefer not spending 40k on one materia from AH.

Materia conversion is based on the purpose of the gear. So tanking material comes from tanking gear, magic material comes from Mage gear. The grade of material is determined by item level

SMN Beastman Kills:
Sylpheed Sighs x 8
Sylpheed Screeches x 8
Sylpheed Snarls x 8

Testing now to make sure isn't bugged.

Edit: Tested and the quest text is accurate! Onward to Hydra!

Thank you

Actually it looks like you need to do the hard primals as the job you're getting the relic for. Didn't get the item from Garuda playing as a different class

I am updating first post with job requirement notes

For Mnk beastmen is :
x8 Pugilists
x8 Archers
x8 Lancers

Could you please confirm that you had to kill zaharak archers, and that you aren't subject to the same bug as PLD which really needed thaumaturges

Does Barbarian's Bardiche also drop in any dungeons?

I found Blunt Aeolian Scimitar which is the ground item for PLD, so wondering?

The whole weapons do not drop. Only the components.

Just to clarify...I have to do my job quests all over again? Or do I have to find this broken item before I can start from my 1.0 quest?

See I just finished the main storyline (got my imperial mount). Got up to the quest where I talk to the guy in hyrstmill. Nothing followed that though.

Yes. Even if you already have AF amd job skills from 1.0, you will have to do the quests again. Adding a clarification to first post

You can get the parts for the crafted weapons from tradecraft leves too.

Some of the rare armor pieces that use to come from NMs are from them too, like Mossy horn, Which is actually the reward for the Armorer leve i have in that picture.

Also, the leve givin me the bloody lance head is one that can be turned in 3 times, so now I has 3 of them ^^ Coincidently, so was the armorer one, so I got 3 Mossy horns out of it.

Fascinating! Thanks for sharing. Adding this to front page

Yes. If you know what class you are going to relic, you can obtain the weapon and get it melded in advance. You can also work on saving up tomestones for step 15

Thank you pretty kitty for keeping up with this. I know how busy it can be know, since I rarely visit the forums during times I can play as well.

And thanks to all who contributed information to this, from other forums, to the posts in this thread. Seeing the community come together for a common cause is a beautiful thing. ^^

Thanks! Any idea if I can do the Chimera, Amdapor Keep, and Primals parts too, or does the quest have to be logged to get the drops?

Also curious about the HQ weapon. That's what I've got currently, but I'm not sure if it'll work. Any insight?

I have killed as I claimed. There was no bug or glitch during the quest whatsoever. I can guarantee that.

Yea I did the quets and it required the Bedesmen, Priests and Quarrymen. I was supposed to confirm it from the Journal and correct myself here but forgot. But yea, its the same ones as WHM.

[zeldageek]

Does anybody know if you can use a high quality base weapons for the 2x materia melded weapon part?
