Relic / Atma / Zodiac / Novus / Nexus Weapon information

[vrumpt]

Oh good, I was planning on spamming light farming all weekend, now I'll just wait.

[jibini]

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

Yeah, I never quite understood why they put those in for 2.4, then removed them for 2.45, and are now putting them back again.

They shouldn't be that bad even capped at i110, but it's still a weird design choice.

[Leadleaf]

The item level sync had cancelled all materia effects when it was added last, the next update will allow materia to work with the sync.

[Yukari]

Still seems really stupid, since dungeons are still faceroll level. It just slows down people who just wanna go fast.

Edit: The other stupid thing is that the sync is at i110, when it was completely possible to get a i115 weapon pre2.4, yet if I'm reading it right, you can still use i110 melded stuff just fine.

[kisada]

dungeon thing makes me super mad. i don't really plan on making another weapon but that's just a slap in the face.

[Arthars]

about time light potency go up

that is by far the most painful stage with today's lack of people spamming lights

even with new release nexus quest, it takes average 5 days with entire world spamming trials, for a il5 upgrade, now its just too painful

it better be a double-up!

[ryuuken]

zodiac quest has been a fucking nightmare

1/24 WP
1/16 pharos
1/1 tamtara
1/2 hullbreaker
1/8 AV
1/8 DD
1/12 brayflox
1/12 copperbell
0/22 haukke
0/32 AK

don't know why im doing this

[Ezek]

Excalibur is worth it solely for the glamor.

Also, BiS for most (all?) jobs if it gets bumped up to 135 in 2.51. That's some terrible luck on drops, though. Don't think I've ever had more than 25 clears without a single drop.

[Ratatapa]

MNK dreadwyrm claws are pretty much BIS i think even with relic getting to I135

[Raldo]

MNK dreadwyrm claws are pretty much BIS i think even with relic getting to I135

Assuming maxed det/crit, an i135 relic would have 16 more crit than the dreadwyrm

[Arthars]

5th round still stuck at copperbell

0/49 atm

already completed the other 3 quests >.> so i cant even choose a list to do.......

fucking giants

[Angeleus]

Assuming maxed det/crit, an i135 relic would have 16 more crit than the dreadwyrm

There should be a law that MNK should convert their relics to full CRIT/DET...

Patch 2.51 will create the "ultimate" zodiac weapon.

QNS: Will the Zodiac series be continued in heavensward?
Yoshida
Until now, the zodiac weapon quest has been coming a long way so, "Please forget whatever happens till now" is something we are not going to do this time.
In heavensward, lvl cap is raised and player will grow again in terms of power etc, so naturally, new items will be obtained from new contents.
Therefore, with this, the zodiac weapon quest will also continue to player's growth, but will be scheduled in 3.1


QNS: So, during that time, to the owners of the zodiac, are there consideration for them? (idk wtf he means really)
Yoshida: Of course!


QNS: Before that, it seems like in patch 2.51, the zodiac weapons will continue to grow...
Yoshida
in patch 2.51, you will see the "ultimate" form of the ZWs. With this, in heavensward, you will see ZW continue to grow into greater heights and therefore, can still be used in various situations.


QNS: So.... what is this "ultimate" version be in terms of IL.....
Yoshida
Im sorry, i cant disclose that before patch comes.
Putting IL aside, things such as "MAX determination", tuning the weapon to your desired stats is the greatest advantage of yhe ZW. You can even adjust the stats on ZW according to your existing gears.[/B]

There you go guys, farm that 3 sets of atmas, alex, ZW items if you havent!!!

パッチ2.51でゾディアックウェポンは究極形に進化！
Patch 2.51 will create the "ultimate" zodiac weapon.

──ゾディアックウェポンストーリーは、今後どのような発展を遂げていくのでしょうか？　『蒼天のイシュガルド』での扱いは？
Will the Zodiac series be continued in heavensward?

吉田　Yoshida
これまでのゾディアックウェポンストーリーを通じてプレイヤーの皆さんはとても苦労されているので、「いままでのことは忘れてください」みたいなことはしないつもりです。
Until now, the zodiac weapon quest has been coming a long way so, "Please forget whatever happens till now" is something we are not going to do this time.

『蒼天のイシュガルド』がスタートするとキャラクターレベルの上限が引き上げられるため、冒険者自身の成長が期待できますし、新しいコンテンツを通じてまた別のアイテムの獲得を目指していただくことになります。
In heavensward, lvl cap is raised and player will grow again in terms of power etc, so naturally, new items will be obtained from new contents.

“ゾディアックウェポンストーリー”か、その続編なのか、武器を成長させていく遊びは、パッチ3.1から再開する予定です。
Therefore, with this, the zodiac weapon quest will also continue to player's growth, but will be scheduled in 3.1


──そのとき、ゾディアックウェポンのオーナーに対する配慮は盛り込まれるのでしょうか？
So, during that time, to the owners of the zodiac, are there consideration for them? (idk wtf he means really)
吉田　はい、もちろんです。
Of course!


──その前に、パッチ2.51でゾディアックウェポンのさらなる強化が可能になるわけですね。
Before that, it seems like in patch 2.51, the zodiac weapons will continue to grow...

吉田　Yoshida
パッチ2.51でゾディアックウェポンの“究極形”を完成させれば、『蒼天のイシュガルド』発売までは最強の状態が続くことになりますので、いろいろ活用していただければと思います。
in patch 2.51, you will see the "ultimate" form of the ZWs. With this, in heavensward, you will see ZW continue to grow into greater heights and therefore, can still be used in various situations.

──その“究極形”のアイテムレベルは……？
So.... what is this "ultimate" version be in terms of IL.....

吉田　Yoshida
いつもどおりパッチノートまで公開できません。
Im sorry, i cant disclose that before patch comes.
アイテムレベルはもちろんですが、“意思力特化”など、自分の好みに合わせて武器の強さを、ステータスを調整できるのがゾディアックウェポン最大のアドバンテージです。ほかの装備に合わせて調整していただければと思います。

[Arthars]

[solracht]

[Arthars]

[kisada]

[Gokulo]

Well, at least we know they will continue to be developed, that's something.

[Shenrien]

-_- Terrible design priorities.. oh well the casuals need some sort of carrot to chase after. Keep going back to do 2.0 content to pretend it's relevent huzzah.
