    That's the best part, by the time anyone who isn't the hardest of the hardcore finishes one of these things, 3.2 and the next set of ilvl weapons will be out.

    Did a little bit of math, factoring in law tomes and an average run time of 8 mins per, doing this entirely via Alexander Normal would take 86 hours (17.2 days if you spend 5 hours every day) of pure Alexander grinding before factoring in breaks, downtime between queues, finding parties, etc.

    What's with everyone sitting in PF for 30+ minutes just to do an HM unsynced for anima weapons... just queue through DF can still rape it in like 15 minutes...

    I've not really got an interest in rushing this - I won't have any need for the BLM one until stats become custom.

    The problem I see is the way they make content irrelevant too quickly making it harder to find people to do it with later on.

    I like the idea of having something to do, although I wish they had actually had a go at doing something new rather than an amalgamation of all the grinds in previous relic steps.

    Well. There's a reason people don't NORMALLY queue for these obsolete dungeons and only did so because of the roulette bonus when it was relevant to a lot of people. I applaud you if you can get through Qarn HM/Keeper in 15 minutes via DF though, from my experiences..there's still plenty of people doing it that makes those dungeons aggravating and I can't blame anyone who'd sooner sit in PF than queue into these dungeons DF wise.

    All for 1 weapon damage

    How many tokens do you get per beastmen quest? if it's close to 3 months worth of dailies to get all 80 items (less if you decide to grind some of the nearly 60k tomes or 200 alex items per piece!) then l o fucking l
    Uh, 1 star is easily HQ´d with white gear penta´d xD The real cock block here is the "specialist" tag.

    When you you're waiting 30-45 minutes for people to join in DF, yes you can. I've cleared 2 dungeons already through DF and this one guy is still in DF gathering for WP Hard lol.

    Less than 5 minutes queues as NIN b/c everyone is spamming them atm

    It's a 1 star, but check the actual requirements. It won't be as difficult as an FC3 synth or something, but it also isn't going to be so easy that everyone and their dog will be capable of crafting it en masse, especially not in white gear. The supply will not meet the demand.

    So: Here's the item list for the 4 items needed for the last quest.

    Enchanted Rubber: 20 Unidentifiable Bones, 4 HQ Adamantite Francesca
    Fast-Drying Carboncoat: 20 Unidentifiable Shells, 4 HQ Titanium Alloy Mirror
    Divine Water: 20 Unidentifiable Ores, 4 HQ Dispelling Arrow
    Fast-Acting Allagan Catalyst: 20 Unidentifiable Seeds, 4 HQ Kingcake

    All 4 items are bought from Cristiana in Mor Dhona (21,5) at the bottom of the staircase.

    This quest comes after the dungeon spam one and give you the 210 weapon.

    Question, if we trade in our relic, do we lose it lol

    I mean, the NPC that sells the replicas will only sell it to you if you have the original, unless it flags the new relic as the base letting you buy replicas of the previous

    Also, getting "free" ilvl200 weapons don't seem to bad if you have plenty of time to grind Fates....

    Penta´d white gear can craft 2 stars, not sure what you mean with this.

    Care to elaborate? Did they fix it so you don't need to equip the item to buy replicas? Do you now need to equip the new relic (which doesn't even need to be for the same job)?

    So whats the best way? I dont think Alex NM runs are the fastest since 10 runs for 1 token is like 3hours+ at 20minute runs.

    Don't Fractal and Foreverreap give poetics and Law? I don't believe the new dungeons give poetics. How much do you get per those 2 dungeons again? that may be the best method since you can double dip

    When I went to buy my Sasuke Blade zeta replica I had to have the item on me, but didn't have it equipped. I bought it from Drake at Hyrstmill. It also allows you to buy all of the previous stage replicas as well.
    So basically don't trade in your relic until you've bought all the stages of replicas you want from it.
