I wonder what the Precsion Gordian Shaft/spring/crank etc etc will do. Id laugh if it gave us teh savage version of gear but that would make no sense especially w/o weekly lockout, unless that there way of sticking it to the content sellers.

So my logical assumption would be anima weapon related?

Ill be at work when all this stuff goes down soo someone post here and lemme know when we fin out what theyre for

From the broken data that was already in dats via 3.0 and 3.1 it's LIKELY a weekly quest to stretch out the content and offer people an alternative way to get the actual gear rather than needing 2-4 pieces even though it's easy.

On Japanese client at least, Gordias is just defining both Normal and Savage as that area is known as "Gordias", so we'll see in a few hours, SE has been terrible with the patch notes recently.

Looks like I was correct that it was to stretch out the content. The bolts are an alternate path of getting certain items for relic.

Your choice is:

800 Alexander Normal Runs
54,400 Law Tomes
Maxed Beast Tribe quests
Price Gouged Treasure maps/Gather yourself per x hours thus further extending the essential 80+ days Beastmen tribe grind.

And Zeta doesn't let you skip the stupid part (only the Atmas as far as we can see..which isn't the bad part surprisingly.)

(Btw Eso Weapon is needed, so those who say people have no reason to get Eso and wanted a relic..well I did kind of warn people and basically say if you play long enough no matter how casual you should be gearing in Eso at least.)

umm 800 alex runs? 54,400 law tomes? lol WTF is wrong with SE, the first relic didnt get ridiculous requirements like that until practically the end (light farming), theyre giving us crap like this right out of the gate? Id hate to see what further steps entail then. lol I was gonan try for two weapons but after this i think one is enough.... the weapon better be higher than il200 for al that work

Yep, why it's an option to which ever you feel like you'd rather do lol. With how bad Alex normal has been, I honestly would take the 54k tomes as I didn't care for the sylph quest, so that'd hinder me if I went that route.

The weapons are 210 and aside the hardcore grinders, by time you get the 210, 3.2 will be out and Gobdip will be accessible from VA weekly and even then Thorden Ex weapon serves you better as this relic is a tiny upgrade at this point unless you didn't do TEX.

can you confirm/who do you know ESO weapon is needed? is this speculation based on the fact that the weapons are called "animated <eso weaponname>" or has someone actually confirmed this?

It's used in a later update on relics based on the data we can mine up (similar to how you "attached" the unfinished relic to the materia infused ones for 2.x but that'd likely be in the 3.2.x update for relics, so its good to get it before then.) The "animated" ones are the ilvl 170 you get from the quest.
