We know Relics are rather lackluster compared to their Empyrean counter parts and aside from a major boost in something they'll stay that way.
If Relics are supposed be the best weapon for its class, how do you think SE should fix this issue, either overall or individual (be realistic).

Overall, I think SE should work on the hidden and additional effects.
Individually,
Aegis should have some magic reflect and or some random petrify gaze.
Apoc should break haste cap.
Ghorn maybe Ghorn only songs, Massacre Elegy?
Claustrum, give it all elemental % boost.
Guttler, it really should talk.

Breaking haste cap would make DRK broken again, like it was before. I really think they should revamp the WS on them to make them all at least be able to crit. Add effects on them are hit or miss depending on the job, but boosting the hidden ODD to the level of an Empyrean would be great (and making it work on both hands for MNK too). Could throw in new random bonuses to complement specific jobs too, like Martial Arts for MNK, PDT or Shield Mastery for Aegis, Song Cast time down on Ghorn, etc etc. Might leave Gsword hanging but who even uses that anyways mirite.

Kinda forgot about the LR buff, It would be more broken the it was before.
Maybe they could make Catastrophe 26% so you have more choices of gear to use during aftermath, I don't know.

I really wouldn't be surprised if Ragnarok ends up being one of the better relics at 99. Increases rate of critical hits VI alone would be like 50%.

Until Rag (or Gsword in general) gets a considerably better WS, it'll still be stuck in the middle. It's a good weapon as it is, but lacking a good WS is what's really holding back DRK (and SAM) right now. If they're given that, they'll both be far and away the absolute top DD's.
