FFXI: Great Katana Relic Upgrade Stage I >> Stage II

Really makes you wonder if 300 Bronzepieces, worth roughly 10k each along with about 100k in synthesis items was worth an item that can only do damage in Dynamis.. but, once I collect 3 lesser Great Katanas and about 1300 more T. Whiteshells I'll have..

Wait... that doesn't look that much better. I follow a path a handful of Samurai before me have. All in a goal to make my Samurai as efficient as my BLM and SMN.
