1. Anyone with a 99 Relic should just shut up its not anywhere near the same thing as a 99 Empyrean (Relics are way more common for a reason they are easier to 99)
Really? You are probably right. Besides all the coins relics needed lets not forget marrows. Nevermind the fact that for months people spammed Qilin and Iggy. I can totally see your point.
2. Anyone with a Aegis Ochain Daurdabla or Gjallarhorn Shouldn't say a word either cause your Crap isn't broken lol
(OH MY GOD I HOPE THEY DO) Don't worry PLD was broken for a long time - and still has mostly been relagated to, hey stand in that corner and hold these mobs, we'll have a healer check on you every 5 minutes or so.
3. The trials are no where near balanced if that's your Argument
(200M Empyrean VS 120m Relic isn't balanced)... Why do you keep forgetting about umbral marrows?
-- Almost all of Empyrean's have to be farmed , Can't just buy as many pops as you think... Can't just use Mommy Credit Card to buy Gil and then Buy Currency Abyssea is hard.
-- Can Farm 75 Relics With 3 people in 2 months, and go from 95-99 in a day VS Farming a Empyrean with 3 people in 2 months and then from 90-99 Takes half a year... With 18 people Each Run Because of the drop System and Cant be low manned The key here is you need talented people willing to give you umbrals to 99 your relic, versus anyone willing to proc can do VW and will gladly sell you drops or you can get them yourself. Let's also remember dynamis gives you 2 hours period - abyssea and VW time is limited only by your schedule.
4. Also Don't Say 85s wheren't meant to be relevant at 99 the damage increase on a Verethragna 85 is +35 and 99 is +42...... that's only +7 ... 85-99
(I got Along Fine with Any of my 85s Untill Delve Weapons)
Perhaps this was a big flaw in empy design to begin with.
5. you people who say this game is suppose to progress are just dumb... this game doesn't have much space And REM's wheren't suppose to turn over. (I do agree that you shouldn't have to have a REM to be able to participate in endgame)
-- And why revamp Dynamis Einherjar Salvage Nyzul Limbus if they where just gonna break all of it later... No one will do Mythics or Empyreans now
-- Why did they make this Old Endgame useless anyway after revamping all of it?
What poster below you said.
6. IF A RELIC, EMPYREAN, MYTHIC, 99 OWNER CAN CRY ABOUT IT SO CAN A 85 90 95 OWNER (they didn't break BRD or PLD items)
Don't insult my mythic with your 85 H2h weapon.
7. We aren't asking for a Freebie ......
-- lessen plate requirement
-- or Make Pouches Drop Elsewhere
-- or upgrade each tier individually
Verethragna 85 +95 Damage
Verethragna 90 +99 Damage
Verethragna 95 +103 Damage
Verethragna 99 +107 Damage
EXAMPLE -------------------->
-- DO THIS By a Side trial (don't just give it to us)
Perhaps the problem here is empys gave casuals access to a class of legendary weapons. Not to say there aren't hardcore players out there that have empys, but every noob who knew how to enter a maw got their paws on an empy and never finished it b/c for some reason an uncapped weapon was still relavent. The point of legendary weapons, imho, was that you picked a job you we're really fanatical about, and busted your rear to get a great tool for that job. Instead the legendary weapons became a must have. As an additional thought, maybe if 85 or 90 empys weren't acceptable, more plates, dross, and cinders would have been sold, and the prices, especially on plates wouldn't have crashed. Once alixirs perhaps fall in price and the legnedary weapon update happens, it will be worthwhile to farm these items. Good luck man, but as a player who just recently finished a mythic, I have 0 sympathy for your situation.

99 versions are already a large step up from the lower versions, didn't hear lvl90 harp owners bitching at 99 cap update...

Its been mathed out several times that 99 relic and 99 emperean are very comperable on cost and both can be done for free with time/friends. VW can easily be lowmanned.

The same arguement would seem completely baseless if turned to someone saying they got along fine with thier AF weapon until relics came alone... 25 levels in that example and ~45 levels in yours, Delve weapons are a response to a static level cap. Can't increase the level, increase the stats, 99 RME are COMPLETED weapons and fall into that category, your 85's are not.

I don't know about your server but in mine with 120 mil you can definitely make a relic and 99 it. Not that I'm endorsing what this guy is ranting about in buffing up 85/90/95 empyreans (I honestly couldn't care less given that the delve weapons smoke em anyway and are almost effortless to acquire) but he does have a point in that relics are without question the easiest route to a 99.

-- DO THIS By a Side trial (don't just give it to us) LOLTHEFUCKWUT?
1) there are plenty of 99 empyreans, get with the times if you cant be bothered to at least 90 your masamune you should just shut up and sit in a corner.
2) ERMAGAWD as you can see in the examples SE gave 99 REMs wont be broken.
3) with a good group of 3 players you can clear 50 or 75 items in a day, if you cant thats just unlucky... get better at the game. Lolbyssea isnt hard. You didnt see the people making mythics raging when abyssea was released and Alexandrite soared up to 20k a piece instead of 3k.
3a) i farmed my apoc and sold an Almace at the same time in a month duo boxing.
3b) 2hrs a day vs all day, 18300 items and other misc items inculding weapons, attests, fragments vs 175 items. Yeah empyreans are so hard...... they get the hardest trials..... booohoooo!
4) You very clearly do not understand how H2H dmg and H2H skill works i suggest you read up on this and you will learn why vere gets the smallest boost. most 1 handers get a dmg boost of around +13 and most 2 handers get s boost of around +34. Just to blow your mind a lil bit 99 vere on a pup actually has dmg:89.
5) You are extremely dumb to expect a game to NOT progress most other MMOs will add legendary weapons and they wil get outdated and not given a boost in damage.
5a) I guess you dont read Dev posts they have given examples of how the completed 99 weapons will look stat wise after the REM update.
5b) same as above old endgame is not useless.
6) an 85 90 95 owner hasnt finished their weapon yet it is in an incomplete state why should SE reward lazy people?
7) you talk about there not being much space in the game yet giving every REM an extra 4-5 trials is stupid.

I don't see this happening myself but I suppose time will tell. If anything I would think if you aren't actively trying to 99 your empyrean now then what incentive would you have to do it months from now when by then you likely already possess a just as functional delve weapon. Add to that the fact that SE has suggested they may allow you to use empyrean weaponskills on other weapons (like said delve weapons) via 99 WoE unlocks and it looks more likely that VW will indeed remain dead in terms of PUGs. Those that want a 99 Legendary weapon will likely just make relics now as they are less expensive than the other two alternatives and can be done entirely solo by just doing dynamis for 3 to 3 and a half months. In a sense 99 relics would end up becoming the new 90 empyreans had it not been for the fact that delve weapons are absurdly easy to acquire anyway.

As the holder of an 85 Almace and 90 Ochain, I do not expect, nor do I even want, anything below 99 R/M/E to be upgraded because of Delve.
Trials already exist to take 75/80/85/90/95 weapons to the 99 level, and an 85-95 weapon of that caliber probably shouldn't be comparable to other 99 weapons in that range.
99 R/M/E should be superior to Delve weapons. 80-95 should not.

^ pretty much word for word.
The only thing I'd say is that it would be nice to have a trial to convert Empyreans to WoE versions.

They'd more likely just make an 85+ Emp qualify just like 99WoE to do quest to unlock the WS.

Noone ever said that upgrading R/M/E will be easy, and those who say that taking R/M/E by trials to 99 is beyond their reach may not be able to upgrade it anyways. It was a tough decision for me to upgrade Arma to 99 (considering this weapon greatest value is access to Wildfire and the boost to WS 90-99 is minimal). I even considered selling all HMPs and Dross to build another relic. In the end I am happy having good COR weapon and looking forward for a chance to upgrade it.
As i said, in my opinion, prior to seeing upgrade requirements, all this bitching around is pointless.

Just out of curiosity... do you honestly believe that SE listens to anyone that doesn't speak Japanese? Just sayin', they've never really seemed to in the past. Which means any thread full of hundreds of posts complaining in English about any one of their policies is probably never going to be seen by them. This one, for example? Meaning, anyone who is here seriously arguing, instead of having fun trolling or hopping in to read the latest stupidity like I am, is basically just wasting their time. But hey, when has logic ever factored into morons saying moronic things on the internet? Carry on.

Wow, an 85 Almace(LOL) and a 90 Ochain.
Delve had no negative effect on you at all. I wonder if you'd be singing a different tune if they made your shield as worthless as non-99 REM are now?
As was previously stated 85+ empyrean holders should get access to WS without having to 99 a WoE weapon.
Anyone who didn't 99 an empyrean shouldn't get access to empyrean WS on their Relic/Mythic/boss delve weapon.

Even 99 REM are worthless for now, if they wanna make shield and instrument useless they can if they want.. Release a delve harp that let you sing 4 extra songs for a total of 6 and a shield that can block even if you aren't facing the mob! And it's done.

What about the update made any RME worthless? I fail to see how an 85 almace makes his PLD any less useful, since when do PLD's do any respectable damage regardless of the weapon?
Either you dont' understand what a tank does (protect the mages, not the DD) or you're just picking a fight. An 85 Almace is perfectly capable of doing its job for PLD.
I routinely outparse delve DD's by large amounts with my lol90/95 weapons and I'm continuing to work on making them 99.

I'll retract my previous statement. I can relate to what you're describing. I've been on runs in Morimar where DDs are parsing a 40% hitrate, refusing to eat food, and just plain sucking at all aspects of the job yet they have a delve weapon that should be parsing them through the roof. I'm sick and tired of the amateurity that comes with the majority of the abyssea raised. From Bards, to White Mages, to DD...it's sickening. If they can't hit the mob then it doesn't matter whether they have a delve weapon or not. Therefore, I refuse to defend them and wish you luck on outparsing them. #disgusted

The assumption is if you have a delve weapon, you should be über parsing. I forget how easily accessible delve weapons are now.

If "Abyssea raised" is mind boggling to you, you either weren't around before Abyssea or you've got some thick nostalgia glasses on (we're talking beer-bottle thick).

Wow, an 85 Almace(LOL) and a 90 Ochain. Delve had no negative effect on you at all. I wonder if you'd be singing a different tune if they made your shield as worthless as non-99 REM are now? As was previously stated 85+ empyrean holders should get access to WS without having to 99 a WoE weapon. Anyone who didn't 99 an empyrean shouldn't get access to empyrean WS on their Relic/Mythic/boss delve weapon. I routinely outparse delve DD's by large amounts with my lol90/95 weapons ... Either you do runs with horribly geared DDs or ones that are just plain horrible. This shouldn't be the case lol. I'm gonna have to call BS as well. You should probably just go ahead and upgrade to a delve weapon at this point in time as there's no way you'd outparse even a mediocrely geared delve DD, let alone, an elitist delve DD.
Being engaged on a mob, using your JA's wisely, wearing the appropriate gear to utilize curry over pizza or sushi. Beating a delve weapon DD is not that difficult when you consider most of them didn't have a respectable weapon or gear or maybe even the job before delve.
The weapons themselves are godly and I'm working on them too.
I'll retract my previous statement. I can relate to what you're describing. I've been on runs in Morimar where DDs are parsing a 40% hitrate, refusing to eat food, and just plain sucking at all aspects of the job yet they have a delve weapon that should be parsing them through the roof. I'm sick and tired of the amateurity that comes with the majority of the abyssea raised. From Bards, to White Mages, to DD...it's sickening. If they can't hit the mob then it doesn't matter whether they have a delve weapon or not. Therefore, I refuse to defend them and wish you luck on outparsing them. #disgusted "Abyssea raised".
The majority of players suck, it has always been like this, it is like this in every single video game or even human activity that exists. People who do not suck are a minority, always have been, always will be. Abyssea has nothing to do with this, it's merely the most recent "shitter maker", nothing more.
The only issue one can have in the "Delve onry" "debate" is that due to this fact, most Delve owners are jokes and shouldn't be considered as Delve tier DDs. That's it. If you talk strictly about the pick up farms though, anyone worth their salt can carry shitters in general.
Bottom line is, people who carried their stuff before SoA will keep carrying, Delve weapon or not. People who were never able to carry anything will never be able to carry anything Delve weapon or not, they are just unable to do so.

Like Genesi says BS, more damage on your weapon "should" increase the damage cap, so let you stack more stats that a REM90-95.
Tragic 90 and 95s aren't getting any damage boost and anyone with a 90 95 or 85 for that matter should be furious its gonna be useless
An Empyrean 95 trial is nearly impossible trial at this point:
1500 plates
no Voidwatch Uptala or Qilin Shouts
HMP market is starved
Prices going through the roof
Cant be low manned Like Dynamis or Salvage
so if all these people don't think its fair for 90s 95s to get a little damage boost
(not as high as there 99 counterpart but a relevant boost)
then why not make it only Afterglows get the Boost
to make it truly fair
(they are the only ones truly finished)
(oh and Instruments and Shields never got touched in any of this mess)
Aegis Ochain Daurdabla Gjallarhorn are all still BIS
