So, with every expansion there comes a type of Relic grind. This includes the very first part of FFXIV, A Realm Reborn. I go over how long it takes to complete an ARR Relic currently as well as some other advice.

Jeez I literally waited for one fate for days until I realized it's one in a chain '-_-
The atma's are super easy now, but those books…..those. books! I hate that step. I just finished my first (BLM) and for some reason, I like pain apparently, so I am now doing WHT mage. I have no clue why im going through this torture again
I dunno if I got super lucky during the books but I rarely had more than 30 minutes of waiting time before the fate spawned…If anything I found the book stage more "fun" so to speak than the light farming, at least you're out exploring the world…Aurum Vale isn't really a challenge and gets pretty mindnumbing very quick…
I'm new to the game about 3 months or so. To me ARR relic is really grindy at first, so i decided to save it for later, recently i just did from the 9 books part until finished the last part, it wasn't so bad if im level 90, everything roughly just one hit on unsync hahaha, the lazy part is still the book part where you have to visits other world for random fates because it took longer if waiting.
The book stage has been taking me forever.
Literally only did my paladin which is my main and I'm not interested in grinding any other arr relic weapons. That grind is so bad and I'm glad I wasn't around when it was new.
The books for me were more chill than atma, when I was in atma phase it took 20-27 fates for 5 atmas. While the other 7 were 2-12, I dunno for me book phase was better than atma even when having to force spawn fates.
Everyone talking about the books before they got to materia…
The worst step is definitely the zodiac step, leveling all the DoL/DoH classes is a LOT of grind, I guess it's not a problem for non trial players, but without the marketboard it's hell.
I'll pass mainly because i started it with my monk and i no longer main him so to grind for a class i don't play seems dumb and since i basically main 2 jobs now DNC and SAM i not going thru all that additional grinding.
