Mythic Weapon Compiled Information

[Silenka]

But this is SE we're talking about. Anything they want to be hard has to be damn well near not even worth doing and completely retardedly frustrating or else it's not worth their time to implement and tweak to maximum frustration level! We may as well be bashing our own heads against brick walls, cause we end up with pretty much the same thing... a headache and some lost brain cells due to the sheer pointlessness :D

20 seconds to songs. Are you serious? I mean thats awsome for lullaby but meh for buffs as most good brds have no problem keeping songs up. I guess it's to balance out Ghorn's awsomeness. Awsome Relic=Shitty Mythic and visa versa(Except blm....lolclaustrum)

It's not a strait 20 seconds. It functions like Song +2 on an instrument. Every +1 on an instrument adds 10% of the normal duration. So a standard 2 minute song would last 2:48 with an HQ instrument/Gjallarhorn and mythic. Lullaby would last 42 seconds.

What would have been cool (since it's a 3-part quest IIRC?) would have been if the Mythics had 3 stages, with stage 1 and 2 giving you AM1 and AM2, and then stage 3 (finished) the final weapon. And SE seriously needs to come up with more ways to make things difficult other than just gil and ridiculous time sinks. AV and PW strike me as the kind of things that should have been used for the relic and mythic weapons in lieu of the current quests we have (epic guardians for epic weapons) but not quite as tough? Or at least with some kind of sensible strategy as opposed to all the cryptic bullshit we've gotten since AV's inception.

With people having completed several Mythics, there is now a 0% chance of SE reducing the required number of Alex. So that wishful thinking can stop, lol.

[Spira]

this doesnt rule out the possibility of adding more means to acquire Alex tho. such as by increasing pouch droprates and adding them as a drop to nyzul

Whatever happened to those relic boosts they promised?

[Xanthe]

Whatever happened to those relic boosts they promised?

They never promised any boost. They said that relics would remain the pinnacle for damage dealing and they still are. We just assumed that mythics would be wtfpwn and relics would need a boost to hold to that statement. You can breathe now.

whats the point of doing both gungnir and ryunohige xanthe?

[Ohaigaiz]

You're pretty late

[happydude]

sorry dont spend 24/7 on bg

[Ohaigaiz]

Don't have to spend that amount of time on bg to know quite a few people have relic/mythic for the same job

[happydude]

for a 2hander? i understand doing a burtgang/aegis/excal or carn/ghorn but polearm?

edit: oh wait we can merit titans grip and dual wield 2handers oh wait wrong game

[Xanthe]

whats the point of doing both gungnir and ryunohige xanthe?

To have both. I'm not actively buying Alexandrite though. I'm only buying Bronzepiece and Whiteshells for Gungnir at the moment. Ryunohige is something I'll complete when there's nothing else left to accomplish on DRG. Ask Lyramion about that situation, he knows more about it than I do.

[Neosutra]

Well first, "not buying alex" = "not actually upgrading mythic", as stated earlier in this thread. Secondly, do what you want with your money, but 2 handed relic and mythic on same character is a fucking waste of time/effort, go level another job Q.Q.

Whatever, I dont know why I care, it doesnt matter.

[NeoForte]

Well the two weapons are different enough in what they give Drg. It's like SAM, the relic makes them a bigger powerhouse but the Mythic seems to make Sam more tankish in nature. Then there's just the fact people love their job so much they just want both. After I get my Drg Gungnir someday I wouldn't mind getting Ryonihige if resources permitted.

Ya, 5% more counter and "possibly more anticipates" really changes sam to a tank job.

And what does Ryonihige offer to drgs besides damage?

Nothing.

[Xanthe]

E-peen. And something new to play with. That's about it.

at least you didnt trade in the wrong weapon and recompleted 50 assault like me

i traded thf knife way back, and recomplete the assaults 50/50 and im fucking 75 PLD now(burtgang is way better than other mythics)

I'm tempted. G.axe is nice, but whitemage club would be alot more useful. I'm 48/50 right now or something....I'm not sure if I want.

I wish they would lower it but i am at 30,000/30,000 now so pointless (Come on SE put it to 15k so i can do two >_>) Just need to redo all the assaults and get some more Einj/Nyzule points. But not turned anything in yet just been collecting the alexs tbh that's the easy part of burtgang tbh in my books.
