Of course this wouldn't match up to any of the 99 r/e/m GKs. However, for empy holders, does this GK match up to a 90 Masamune with aftermath? Some calculations would be nice.
ToAU gave us mythic, Abyssea gave us empyreal. Understood, lots time and money been spent procuring these weapons. But then we shouldn't get hardheaded about Adoulin offering weapons that might be equivalent or better to r/e/m. I remember old discussions about relics and mythic before abyssea empy.
Nice weapon if it's all you have, but in no way a replacement for relic/empy/mythic. Those weapons have way too much to offer to be worried about a little more base damage.
I think people are just too used to the idea that r/e/m are supposed to have higher damage than "normal drops". Once you get over that notion, you can see this weapon for what it really is. A fourth best option.
Expect another wave of quitters incase this is faster/easier to obtain then relics or mythics.
Way to kill FF11 and all the players that actually played trough all the years full of *** on occasion. Somehow deja vu's me to Diablo II. The time you have something worth some add-on kills your work. Yay. And no i am not butthurt, but i am not hardcore enough to take yet another deepblow to the playerbase by DEVs not even knowing their own game, let alone the playerbase.
