I laugh at all the people who said they'd /wrist over someone winning a relic over mythic.

Eww, I doubt those marrows taste good...
Edit: I wouldn't mind the relic pick as much if it was actually something useful.

I honestly would rather of seen a Claustrum just so I'd have the satisfaction of knowing the winner was trolling.

I wish people would quit saying a relic takes a month. it's such BS. I could see 2-3 months if you are hardcore 18 hour-a-day gamer. for us casuals that live in reality, it's a year.
don't get me wrong, this guy should've picked mythic anything, for obvious reasons, but it's really getting stupid how people think you can make a relic over the weekend, it's just not accurate.
so if this guy has 2-4 hours a day to play, homeboy just saved himself a years worth of work, not that he shouldn't have saved himself 4-5 years of work, & got a mythic, but I makes my points.

in about 2 weeks of farming Dynamis everyday solo on BST/DNC, I got about 10% of a relics currency, so say 3 months tops solo. And that was without 100 drops

If he has 2-4 hours a day to play he could have finished in 2 months or less just by running Dyna once a day. Idk where you're getting a year from

The old man and I just finished our relics (his last night) ~~ we have a son and play in the evenings and on the weekends when we have time. It took us about 8 months to do both. I'm sure it would have been quicker to do 1 at a time, but we were doing something together. We also didn't buy currency until the end. When we were on the final stage, we would only sell what we didn't need to supplement what we did.

So, um... last time I checked weekend is not equal to a month. Also 2-4 hours a day is enough to do 1~2 dynamis depending on number of characters. Oh and lastly it could take a month to get but the main thing in getting a relic is.. wait for it.... dedication to sticking to your goals.

I could down a can of alphabet soup and ***out a real argument.
My point stands, mythics aren't really the best, go find a Kawar thread to troll.

I play football and make sweet love to my girlfriend and I can still probably build one in a couple months, a year if I got into a coma in the middle of it.

I duo'd a relic casually in about 3 months. Casually referring to the fact that we split (majority, not counting that I re-bought and gave to him) coin sales. Sometimes I'd give my share, but we pull in about 5M based on current Phoenix per run. If done daily for 30 days that would be 150M - 20-30 Mil over the cost of most relics. That's enough to supply food costs and buying needed items in the meantime. 2 hours of Dyna everyday really isn't that bad, so yes it can be done in a month - technically less. 2 if your duo partner is taking full splits (75M for the first month, would finish somewhere in the 2nd~3rd week of the following).
As far as a mythic? At a minimum (pre-Odin patch of last week) it would take a minimum of 4 months assuming your LS mates let you leech the ichor off of Odin runs (2880 per every 3 days), Nyzul Tokens, 50 Assaults twice, Salvage bosses, etc. And that's for a hardcore person, not counting the 30k Alex. For the average player? Easily 1 year or more just for the simple fact that it takes such a sheer amount of dedication.

ok, someone start today then, & I wanna see that *** relic on Aug. 31st @ high noon, and not a minute later.
seriously though, casuals are in a completely different universe than some of you guys. it should be easy to understand not everyone can do it in a month...

Just got confirmation that things are still moving according to schedule (our "in July" time frame) and that prizes should hopefully start appearing in lucky adventurer's delivery boxes soon!

We'll make sure to post once we have confirmed that all prizes are sent out!  | |
The sneaky and stealthy goblins were able to infiltrate the FINAL FANTASY XI in-game item vaults and pilfer a ton of items right from under our noses...
