Relic / Atma / Zodiac / Novus / Nexus Weapon information

[Rocl]

If it's 2.51 late February fits with what they've announced via trailer yes.

[Andradi]

Why the fuck would you card a weapon before upgrading it?

So you don't get arrested for upgrading a minor!

I did one book and got the stat up but the book is in my items still. What do I do with the book now?

[Raldo]

Option 1: Ignore it. When you purchase a new book, it will overwrite the old book.
Option 2: Toss the book. It doesn't serve a purpose after you've completed it.

Most people pick option 1 until they're done with books, then pick option 2 for the last book, otherwise that shit will just rot in your key items forever. Once a book is completed, it no longer serves any purpose and you are safe to junk it. The game just apparently isn't smart enough to do that itself.

Oh good, now I know what to do with that last book that's been rotting in my inventory.

So, curious. Just got to the novus step and am working on the Nexus.. so I guess everything gives it's own base light, and then during bonus it gives the bonus amount, right?

So how does it work exactly? Doing Turn 4 is normally Gentle, and then the bonus is..only sometimes Bright? and sometimes still shitty Gentle? or do you combine the Base + bonus? That's where I'm a bit lost :<

Basically, when in "bonus" it goes up one light level. Bright to Brilliant, Brilliant to Blinding, Blinding to Newborn, etc so you get what that bonus level is.

So will the ending of the fight say the upgraded level? or will it say what it normally would for it out of the bonus? Like.. it said Turn 4 was in bonus,but the few times I did it, it said gentle at the end.

If it's bonus, it will say what the bonus amount is. If it said "gentle" at the end of T4, it's not bonus, no matter what other people say.

Edit: Also, it depends on when you enter an instance. If you say... enter 1 minute before bonus lights changes, and it was bonus when you entered, it'll give you bonus light when you exit.

Ah okay, I guess on the 'live trackers' it's just been falsely reported then :<

It won't say BONUS or w/e

Like T4 is normally Gentle, so if you get bonus, replace Gentle with Bright, when bonus is over it will say Gentle again

[Akiyama]

Yeah okay. The few times I did it, it just said gentle at the end and that was it, so I guess it wasn't really in bonus RIP

[Ratatapa]

This seems the best atm

Guildwork is good, but is only updated if people do content, so If it says bright and no one did for like 2h it will still say bright (even if it's gentle)

How do the stat gains on the 110 weapon increase for the 115? And how for PLD items as there are two?

[Ezek]

From the 2.5 patch notes:

The rate at which soulglazed relic weapons achieve soul attunement has been increased.

The drop rate for Alexandrite when completing a FATE with a gold rating while equipped with an animus, novus, or nexus weapon has been increased.

Cool, time to make DRG and NIN zodiacs.

[Gokulo]

I knew this would happen as soon as I get a nexus

[Adajer]

I knew this would happen as soon as I get a nexus

I did too. That is why I took my time as apposed to grinding it out hardcore. Im about 950 lighto n my gae bolg. 47/75 alexandrites on my bravura. Now they question is do i go for a Nirvana?

[Hiryo]

Don't worry, because even though we got increased light generation, we'll get decreased dungeon completion times with ilvl sync.

[Kaslo]

I may actually spam fates for Alex+Light now, since I want to redo my PLD from Acc/Parry to Acc/Det

[Ezek]

I did the long Zenith to Zodiac grind less than a week ago, wish I had known sooner lol.

Ah well, I was on the fence on making a DRG zodiac weapon, this will probably push me to do it.
