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. 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
***lol. A casual gamer could make 5-6 a year.
A really casual gamer could manipulate prices and make a relic in weeks. Buy low, sell high, missprice single pieces as 100s. Look at the price of scarletite ingots on some servers vs. others. Someone said to themselves "there are a couple fools leveling a craft who would LOVE to be parted with their money on my server" and bought all the low price ones and put them back up high. ***Ragnarok is 60-70% higher than asura lol.
I would replace the term "casual" with either "stupid" or "lazy". The implication that all gamers who can accomplish something are virgin male neckbeard basement dwellers should have become extinct a decade ago.
Also, if someone is a "casual" gamer, why are you playing an MMO? The term "casual" gamer is at BEST an excuse used repetitiously to explain why some people can't get anything done in a game originally designed to target young teens.
Ive made quite a bit this month with dyna only being on 4 days .. people are dumb and the buy low sell high ***is hilariously easy ninja edit on that 50M. lol

There's a lot of variables when calculating how long it will take someone to finish a relic.
Do you solo? Do you go with multiple people, and if so are all the coins going to you or split? How many days a week do you go? How many coins per run do you make (some new people only make ~150 maybe less while some vets and above average players can make 300+ alone)? Most importantly, do you buy coins with money made elsewhere?
I'm working on a Ragnarok atm, and I don't buy any coins whatsoever. I am a lazy and overweight person who plays this game WAY too much to be labeled as casual. I'll finish it in probably 3-4 months making 200 to 300 coins per dynamis on average 5 days a week. Sometimes more, sometimes less.
If you finish a relic in 1-2 months doing dynamis every single day and not buying the majority of your coins, then you're lying to yourself if you think you're a casual player.
But, on topic I didn't win ***.

Took me exactly 5 weeks to get 75 amano, and that was doing dynamis 4 days a week tops (other 3 days a week I do ADL with my ls), the rest of the currency I bought - and I'm not loaded with gil by any means. If it takes you a whole damn year to finish a relic today, you're doing it very very VERY wrong.
Edit: since someone in my ls pointed it out to me, let me add that I duoed dynamis 4 days a week for my currency, thf and bst. But even if you solo, no way is it taking you a whole damn year.
Bravo!! You must have very close friends in game.
I do, and I can never thank Dajociont enough for pushing me and duoing with me to help me get my amano. Awesome guy is awesome!

I think you missed something on the last few pages , "Relics are easy as trash to get now , reason for it is being called a waste , 120M vs 600M weapon".
So yeah even a so called RAGNAROK would have been a waste sir.

That's why i say those ppl who finish their relic in 5 week have really good friends in game.
Otherwise they just forget to mention they had tons of gils or a good method to gain gils before they started farming.
Edit : It's like those ppl who are saying that everyone could get a craft to 100 within a week. If you're playing hardcore 18hrs/day yes. If not, no.

100% win rate, 100% pouch rate, and maximum returns for every pouch wouldn't give you 1/6 of a mythic, ignoring the myriad of other timely requirements.

Thankfully, changes are coming for Alexandrite, so even obtaining mythics will be a complete joke.

Changes are coming to Salvage. There's a gigantic difference.
Enjoy the "complete joke" when mythics are in relic demand with a supply less than a third as saturated at most.

| | Hey gang!
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! I don't have an exact time for you for when it begins, but one thing to keep in mind is that prizes will be delivered in order, so it may take some time before all of the prizes are completely distributed.
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... It turns out that it was all for a good cause because they are creating a variety of Golden Gobbiebags packed to the brim with goodies for some lucky adventurers to take home.
We have prepared a special survey based on the events and announcements of VanaFest 2012 to be posted after the event.
