No, they're terrible. Get Taurine if you don't want to do magians.

Hell if you can't get Taurine, there's Furor Cesti, or hell just spam Dominion notes & try for Crit +3(+?) DMG:7 will take a bunch of spamming but if you're dedicated to getting a better geared MNK it's either these, or Tiger's suggestion.


tl;dr-

Heofon Knuckles are terrible, you might as well full time aurore on mnk.

I'd want relic ws weapon even if they were terrible just to open a brew with it satisfying ws curiosity then swap to your normal weapon

I have personally never seen gate of tartarus brewed and many other relic ws

I've brewed with a Clement Skean Mercy Stroke. Mind you my THF doesn't have Evisceration just yet (200 ws points off, inb4 lolgimp) Wasn't a very satisfying amount of Damage compared to Aeolian Edge.


NIN edit:

Most Relic WS's are junk without their appropriate buffs I.E. double/triple dmg (whichever never owned a relic nor do I think I ever will) and Aftermath effects.

Not sure if relic weapon skills stack with the double/triple damage effect. But I could be mistaken. From what I can recall, relic's initial claim to fame were their high base damage more so than their given weapon skills or after effects. However, under the right circumstances some can be utilized to an advantage over modern conventional weapons assuming you took the time to finish their trials.

I didnt mean like AF3+2 set bonus like WAR's double attack double damage, or THF's triple attack triple damage. I meant like the actual hidden effect on the relics.

2~3x dmg hidden effect on relics are ~10% proc and don't proc on ws iirc.

Taurine if you plan on victory smite in the future. Str taipan if not (as they will be a clear winner when next lv increase hits)
