Relic Reborn information

Thanks, but that's shocking. Apparently devoting half your servers to a small island and leaving the other half to carry the entire rest of the world has an impact on the quality of your service outside the island!

Much research must be done to confirm this.

If you check out their TGS panel, Jap servers have the worst queues and loads during their peak hours (7PM-Midnight). I've been in queues for over 45 minutes to reserve an instance. Queues get better outside but you'll still see 15 minute queues at 1AM.

before or after this last update? 'cause if it was fine before, my comment stands. if not... its nice to know they're just dumb instead of really dumb and slightly xenophobic, i guess.

Just finished MSQ and looking for next.. am I missing something.. or is this not a hard quest?
With a competent friend/group this could be knocked out in a day?
I thought there were pieces that needed to be grinded for?

[Krandor]

It's missing needing the 900 philo stone item to finish off the quest.

[Carth]

And yes all the needed drops are 100%, 1 for each.

I would've been able to knock this out in a day if I didn't have to rely on PUGs for Titan. As long as your party isn't shit, the quest isn't hard, or long.

[Churchill]

one and a half hours at worst to do a relic, sans stones.

actually maybe longer now that Amdapor isn't 10 minutes.

[Meresgi]

Guessing you can do a relic quest for each class if you want? How does Titan's weapons compare to standard relic weapons? My WAR is 50 and i'm lvling up PLD right now, not sure what i'll stick with but if the cost of the mats/weapon are only 20k-ish well then fuck ill just get one for each unless Titan's weapons are comparable.

Assuming you have a group that can knock out Titan easily, yeah, you could do two relics in a day roughly. The only time consuming portion of it is the philo stones.

[Quicklet]

Titan's weapons are ilvl 70, same as Garuda's. Relic is ilvl 80 and relic+1 is ilvl 90. The upgrade only takes 900 mythology tomestones or 3 weeks of capping, but there aren't any extra steps you have to go through to do that. You're probably looking at a roughly 10% boost to damage/healing for most classes going from a Garuda/Titan weapon to relic+1. I don't know how important relic weapons are for mitigation for tanks though.

With 30 minute CM runs (which is slow) it comes out to about 5 hours of farming. So practically you can do a relic a day.

Is this for the +1 version only?

[Waraji]

Is this for the +1 version only?

Negative Sky Captain. 900 Philosophy buys you the Ra's-al Ghul Oil or w/e. 900 Mythology buys you 3 Mists which are required for the +1.

[Carth]

Is this for the +1 version only?

No, you need to finish that for the Normal Relic. +1 Version requires 900 Mythology tomes (Except PLD who needs 600 for Sword, then 300 for Shield). So three weeks worth of AK grinding.

[Eanae]

The quest is so stupidly easy the 900 philo probably is the main deterrent at the moment to make all of them. I'd rather take the Gil from selling potashe or animal fat than make something like lolBravura.

Dont know why poeple do CM runs. Prae can be cleared in 22 mins. And less shit to deal with.

+1 one this post. Been aiming for less than 20m a run but everyone has to be ontop of anything. When we end with 24~ it feels slow but it is the quickest philo farm.

[Waraji]

Been trying to get my farming group to do Prae but no one will bite. I think next FC "CM" PT I'll make I will DF on Prae and sneak it in.

[Niiro]

I only did Prae once for the mission but yea it confused me when I found out people did CM for stones, even when doing it for the MSQ I remember Prae being much simpler and faster.

[Fievel]

They can both be done in just about the same amount of time. Both are very mindless and hard to fuck up, CM just won the coin flip on becoming the more popular one.

This is mainly because Praetorium shout groups demand Garuda/Relic weapons, while CM groups does not. At least on my server.
