Relic Weapon (Final Fantasy XI)

Relic Weapons are sixteen weapons obtainable through a series of upgrades in Final Fantasy XI. They are lauded as legendary weapons once used by war heroes during the Great Crystal War twenty years prior to present day Vana'diel. Relic Weapons are the first of five legendary sets of weapons to be introduced. Relic Weapons were added in the Rise of the Zilart expansion pack, with the sole exception of Aegis, which was added in Chains of Promathia.
== Abilities ==
There are sixteen weapons in total, however, not all Relic Weapons are actual weapons, as the set includes a wind instrument and a shield as well. The rest of the weapons each belong to a different weapon type and come with their unique weapon skills. Each weapon would produce a different special effect for its wielder, known as an aftermath, when the unique weapon skill was used for the weapon. In addition to their stated effects, Relic weapons come with the hidden effect of occasionally dealing triple damage.

== Acquisition ==
To obtain the weapons, players must venture into Dynamis and obtain the base relic weapons, and subsequently upgrade the weapons through various stages by paying ancient currency, as well as other special items obtained from Dynamis, to the Goblin Switchstix. Over the years, the Relic weapons have undergone a series of upgrades in order to keep them relevant in the game's meta. Initially, these weapons capped out at level 75. However, over the years, there have been added upgrade paths to get relic weapons to item-level 119 with an aftermath effect. This incorporates several different content pieces.

=== Item-Level 119 Relic Weapons ===
When the item-level system was introduced in Seekers of Adoulin, all of the previous ultimate weapons were surpassed by other newly introduced gear. As a result, further upgrade systems were introduced for the ultimate weapon types to, once again, ensure their powerful status in the game. The NPC Oboro can upgrade your relic weapons even further, into item-level 119.
Note: If a weapon has already been upgraded to the completed level 99 version of the weapon, this changes the path in which the weapon is upgraded to the final 119 variant.
Requirements for Level 119 Relic Weapons through the Oboro Upgrade System.
Stage 	Item-Level 119 I (Stage 1) 	Item-Level 119 II (Stage 2) 	Item-Level 119 III (Final Stage)
Requirements	300 Pluton 	300 Pluton 	10,000 Pluton (upgrading stage 1)
----1 Pluton (upgrading stage 2)
Notes 	If current Relic DOES NOT have aftermath. Stage 2 is skipped.	If current Relic DOES have aftermath. Stage 1 is skipped.	Both stage 1 and stage 2 weapons can be upgraded to the final stage. It just changes material requirements.
== Ultimate augmentation ==
Once the player has a completed ilvl 119 III relic weapon, it is now eligible for augmentation, which further enhances its power. The augmentation process is also done through the Oboro Upgrade System, and it requires extensive involvement in the battle content introduced in the Rhapsodies of Vana'diel mini-expansion, Dynamis Divergence. These augments can be placed on Relic, Mythic, Ergon, Empyrean and Aeonic weapons. There are two methods to unlock there augmentation options:
Methods of Unlocking Ultimate Augments
 	Step 1 	Step 2
Method 1	Acquire a ilvl119 III Relic Weapon.	Trade 10,000 job points to Oboro.
Method 2	Acquire a ilvl119 III Relic Weapon.	Defeat the Wave 3 Boss in Dynamis Divergence - Windurst.

== Legacy ==
Despite being in Final Fantasy XI for over 20 years now, and being accompanied by four other ultimate weapon types, Mythic (and Ergon), Empyrean, Aeonic, and Prime weapons, the Relic Weapons are still a valuable set of weapons. While the utility of each weapon will vary greatly depending on the job, many players still to this day construct builds and strategies which heavily utilize certain fully upgraded Relic Weapons. 
== Behind the scenes ==
The name, 'relic' is a reference to the relic equipment slot in Final Fantasy VI. Some functionality was carried over through the special mechanics of the Relic Weapons. This was the first broad weapon category that augmented different attributes for players through an aftermath accompanied by several additional augments. Many other weapon categories would go on utilize this mechanic, including the four following ultimate weapon categories.
The weapon skill for the Claustrum, the Relic staff, is called "Gates of Tartarus". This is a reference to the location, Tartarus, where Hades and the Xol Triumvirates are from. It plays an important role in the lore of Vana'diel due to its effects on the World Trees. None of this was explored when the weapon skill was released, but with the release of Final Fantasy XI: Seekers of Adoulin in 2013, almost 10 years later, the name of the weapon skill would become meaningful.
The ultimate weapons in Final Fantasy XIV were named after this ultimate weapon category in Final Fantasy XI, despite there being no functional similarities between the weapons in these games.
