Paying for all of those would cost 77,500 plat, which is $4103 USD worth of plat. It would be 2.5 times cheaper still to buy all 620 runes from those 50 runes for 2500 plat packs, but even that would cost around $1640 USD.

But do you really have any other option?? Even if you do NOTHING BUT play AL to grind for this quest, it will take you 2 years. That means sleep deprivation, no job, no socialising, no nothing. For 2 years. So lets be honest, simply farming for Arcane artifact is out of the question.

This is severly broken and needs fixing.

I wrote a long post about suggestions to possibly fix this but it says a moderator has to approve zzzz. Long story short, they need to impliment new ways to obtain fragments/runes/artifacts in order for anyone to get hier tier artifacts.Right now its an insane amount of plat and an even more insane amount of time to farm this. I really hope they change things soon so we can realisticly start to obtain these.
