    Question about changing relic upgrades mid-process

    Hello there!

    Someone in my Dynamis shell, back in the day when they were young and foolish, began upgrading to Claustrum. She turned in the staff for the first stage, and then took a long break. Now that she's back, she would like to begin upgrading hand to hand, and wants to know if its possible to stop/switch the upgrade process. I don't know anything about the process, so I come to you all. Also, I appologize if this is something that's been asked before - every search I conducted ended up in a time-out error.

    She must pay for her sins.

    Definetly -


    Our LS PLD began Excalibur somewhere 2005 during inflationxmas. As the LS wanted to get him Aegis he had to pay for his sins to end the quest with the gob and start shield.

    More reasoning why people should hold all coins until you have enough to do all the stages.

    I nearly upgraded claustrum when I made my dynamis LS, in the last minute I thought "Hmm why not dagger"

    Sounds like Izzy but he was a tad bit late with that decision.

    To be completely blunt with the answer, she needs to finish the stage she currently has traded in to start a different relic.

    No. SE added the option to cancel upgrade quests. I've used it myself to cancel stage 1 GKT to switch to dagger. Just have to talk to the Gob and he should ask you if you want to cancel.

    Sucks that instant gratification(from a stage 1 no less...) is the 'in' thing, eh?

    Getting a stage 2 or 3 does no such gratification. :/

    Trading anything in before you're close to stage 4 coin-wise and have the attestation is kind of silly, I agree. I traded my stuff in for stage 4 ~2 weeks before I expected to have enough coins, took a week and a half to upgrade to Batardeau (just borrowed about 400 which is easily paid back in the next few runs), because I was waiting to see if Dynamis Relics were gonna get buffed and if I wanted to change to Spharai. Too bad nothing came.

    You wouldn't know that though because you've demonstrably never picked up a book nor educated yourself on the matter. Let me guess, overweight housewife?

    If I remember right, they buffed mandau shortly after you got it right?

    So we can all blame waffles for not upgrading staff, because maybe SE would have fixed that instead. D:
