    Just wanted to add that you can actually carry more than 2 mysterious maps: 1 deciphered, 1 undeciphered, and another in your chocobo saddle. Doing them 3 at a time rounds up to the 75 you need

    Quality video. I had a few things that I wanted to add or correct.
    1. You actually can solo Stone Vigil (Hard). If you're decently geared at 80+ you do a decent amount of damage just attacking the boss. I would recommend doing your one minute burst, and then using the cannons to stun and damage outside of burst. This isn't quick, but in my experience was still faster than doing it normally.
    2. You can carry a third map by putting it in your chocobo saddlebags.
    3. This one is only helpful for doing relics beyond the first, but since it doesn't have you pick up the quests that you did during the first weapon (aside from a few repeatables), you can nearly complete some of the steps out of order. This is particularly helpful with the light step, as once you have your weapon soulglazed, you can skip to the zodiac step and do all of the dungeons the four repeatables ask you to do with your relic equipped, and they will count toward the light step. Also, some of them will almost certainly even give you the bonus light.

    I just wanted to say, at level 90 you can now seem to be able to do Stone Vigil (Hard), and lost city of amdapor you just have to burst the first boss with hard hitting moves really quickly (blood lily for WHM, Hyosho Ranryu for NIN, a Blitz for MNK, etc etc)

    • @Deolegion777

    I did the ARR relic for my white mage a few weeks ago. There is another method you can use with a healer to solo Stone Vigil (hard) without going full DPS. The boss will not one shot you until the NPC soldiers are dead. So you can heal them to keep the fight going.

    If you're doing your second relic, you can do the second to last step at the same time as the third to last. Just take the 4 repeatable quests you need for the second to last step and run the dungeons they tell you while getting light at the same time.

    For the Atma grind, you just need A zenith weapon equipped... So if you have a job that you prefer for doing FATEs but you've already done the relic for that job, you can actually go to the Calamity Salvager in the capitals and buy another level 50 base weapon, and then just do the easy first two steps again on that job. Now you have another Zenith weapon and can farm atmas for the rest of your relics on your prefered job!

    The ARR relic is literally the worst grind I've ever done in any video game, ever. Thank Hydalaen there's only one achievement for ARR relic weapons instead of a separate achievement for each relic, as they did in later expansions.
    Also, it is possible to solo all the dungeons at level 90 (probably not at level 71, like you suggest). I was able to kill the Decaying Gourmand before he ate me at that level. Additionally, I was able to solo the Stone Vigil (hard) but I was also playing on White Mage, so I was able to heal the other fighters if their health got too low. So it may be unsoloable with tank or DPS jobs, but it's definitely doable on a healer role (again, at level 90).

    If you feel overwhelming. They aren't that complicated. 1st time will be the most painful especially if you not prep before.
    After that you can stockpile alexandrit beforehand from daily's. Same with 4 quests for this "treasures" they can be done before or when you farm books (same dungeon or when you waiting to fate pop).
    In my experience there's no point of farming fates for books. Just start teleporting, run dungeons, levies etc and wait when they pop automatically. Just check on wiki fate coordinate.

    @TheQman69 11 месяцев назад +1

    I remember when these relics took weeks to get through a stage for a normal casual player. Most normal players barely finished them before the next expansion (HW) came out and made them obsolete almost immediately. It upset everyone so much that SE made completing a Zodiac relic skip stages for the Anima weapons and have since made every relic easier to obtain. Still, FFXIV relics are nothing like FFXI relics were back in the day! Groups of 40+ people farming twice a week for 3-4 hours at a time, for 6-12 months straight just to get 1 relic for 1 player and pray they didn't leave your linkshell if they survived the long push to get the relic without getting bored afterward Most people stressed themselves into quitting not long after getting a relic this way. Because of this almost all relics went to Paladins (Aegis) and Bards (Gjallarhorn) because they were the only relics that benefited the LS as a whole.

      As a tank the only fight I couldn't solo was the giant turtle since I didn't have the dps to burst it down. Otherwise at max lvl in current gear basically you can solo every step of this. A dps won't have a problem with any of the steps. Again only at max lvl and in current crafted gear with your relic weapon.
      Edit: you can hold a max of 3 maps. 1 decipher, 1 in inventory, 1 in chocobro saddlebag.
