3min+ last resort duration, yes please. At least for starters... =/

3 min would simply be overkill.
Now 1 min would be more realistic

If you have enough friends to lowman dyna cities then you can definitely expect the same results in completing lolAssaults, Nyzul isle etc.
Actually it would at least involve more activities which could "entertain" people better than simply spamming dyna zones..
But I guess that's just me, wishing there were still people intersted in anything else other than Abyssea grinding
because having them help me do assaults, vnms(which dont even have 100% drop), nyzul, einherjar, etc is all a waste of time for them. I'm getting the relic without wasting others' time as much as possible; that's how it should be done now imo since relic af is mostly trash. and since the update, I haven't seen any alexandrite in any bazaars. they at least make some money for themselves doing dynamis, and we might not even do it, it hasnt been decided yet. I don't factor it in to the relic.

In all seriousness though... 30sec duration for last resort is too short these days...
SE does need to focus more on the DD department for Drk. Increasing Last resort duration would be a good option. If anything, I do think that DRK needs it.

I was still doing Salvage a month ago, and I'm pretty sure the group I was in is still doing it

Even if you got all of the Alexandrites from your group you're still looking at forever. Since less people do Salvage now it's even harder to find people selling them. Most likely anyone doing Salvage now is going to keep their Alexandrite because almost no reason to do salvage unless attempting to obtain a mythic. My salvage LS got about 20,000-25,000 Alexandrites per year with 7 runs a week, most days doing multiple areas.

ZNM were never a major cockblock relatively speaking, the problem was always amassing 30k Alexandrite as I mentioned previously in this very thread. Nothing else in the quest chain comes close, dunno why one would think ZNM was the cockblock of all things.

Doesn't matter much anymore, the worse problem with Mythics is they require multiple events ( which I'd love to do still ) to be taken care of

Hey, hey don't dis on the Kikoku I've seen some mighty fine DMG come out of that thing. Fenrir had one of the best Kikokus in FFXI history. I've a pretty good idea what it can do. It's not a bad relic, but it's not a great one either and it's attached to a mediocre job. Odds are Empyrean beats it anyway so /shrug
Besides. You suck at NIN Kaioshin. I don't mean that to be cute either. You just suck.

I think all Empyrean Weapons are the best of their class. Twashtar is WHAT THE FLYING DICKBALLS obscene as far as THF weapons go at the moment. Like seriously, destroys Mandau 2-3x over.
I'm very bored ingame, and something to keep me going is working on a relic weapon. Before any such things, yes I have the means to obtain one. I'm a mage-player who has no melee leveled, and I don't care about most things, so I was gonna do Mjollnir because whm is totally awesome and I've always wanted to be running around dual-weilding and wearing my crafting gear with a Mjollnir.
A friend tells me to not do it, as it's useless because it's blunt dmg (I know) and if I really want to melee and have fun on mages, to just do Excalibur, and that I'd look cute with a sword. So I'm wondering how it is meleeinng with one. The en-dmg effect looks sick.
And I'm buying all my currency and probably buying my attestation and fragment and necropsyche, so I'm not wasting anyones dynamis time.(In fact I'll most likely be lowmaning cities with a group of friends, we all split glass cost and split all currency, just a way to save a little gil) I hate the system of dynamis so much, and I wouldn't screw others over just for myself.
