[Relic discussion] By Stone Revealed: ...you might get something! FFT
So y'all have been waiting at least 800 years to hear the Zodiac Brave Story told through the medium of Final Fantasy Record Ramza Keeper; well, the time has come to do just that. Well, chapter 1 of the story, at least - a tale of murder and betrayal in old Ivalice, where all peasants are pagan werewolves, and only Algus Sadalfas has the vision to... oh, wait, screw that guy, he's an ass, and we can look forward to destroying him on the field of battle.
Let's look at some relics instead.

| Defender | Sword | 123 ATK | Agrias | SSB "Hallowed Bolt" (150% AoE ranged physical per hit, 4 hits, with Paralysis and Silence procs at net 47.8% each) | |
| Grand Armour | Heavy armour | 129 DEF, 89 RES | Ramza | "Tailwind" (party: Protect and proportional heal, 40% max HP) | ...Tailwind and not Yell? |
| Kaiser Shield | Shield | 17 ATK, 126 DEF, 83 RES | Agrias | "Cleansing Strike" (171% single physical per hit, 3 hits, with ATK/MAG-50% as status 610) | Has Lightning Damage up! |

| Spellbinder | Dagger | 106 ATK | (None) | (None) | Has a Stop proc. |
So five items spread between two characters, and four more items that are just there. Kinda looking like an old-style banner, actually.
Should I pull: Nope. You don't want powerful relics for two of the arguably most powerful characters in the game. You don't want the SUPREME anchor for physical meta, so anchory that the physical meta is defined in terms of having it or not.
...I fail at sarcasm. Actually, if you're using Mage Meta, you might consider passing on this one, as this is a physical banner for strong physical characters. Otherwise, you should strongly consider some pulls here. But just promise me this before you start whaling.
If you choose to pull too hard, and don't get what you're looking for... blame yourself or god.
