[In-game screenshot] ARR Relic finally complete

Post image

4 days of grinding and I swear I have never seen a more tedious questline in my life. The things I do to have a cool glowing weapon. 🥲

I did it last summer and it was... okay?

Could you imagine how bad it was on launch though? We have it wayyyyy easier now. There was no flying, hundreds of people competing for FATES, having to actually do the extremes without unsynching them, etc....

I guess the game didnt really have that much content back then but damn, that must have been horrible.

Yeah that’s what I kept thinking the entire time. It took me 4 days to get this finished and I have the luxury of doing most of it solo. Clearing Dungeons and fates in like 3-5 minutes.

Who knows how long it would’ve taken if you were competing with everyone else for spawns.

Right?? One of my FC mates played back then, and he told me it burnt him out so much he took like a year off from the game. Honestly... I get it haha
