[dev1065] Relic/Mythic/Empyrean Weapon Upgrades

Stage 1
Possible upgrades will include damage, delay, and weapon skill damage along with other attributes.
The planned difficulty level for the corresponding Magian upgrade trials will be such that a majority of players with the appropriate level 95 equipment will likely be able to complete them.

Step 2
Possible upgrades will include special animations along with "Afterglow" effects that grant status benefits to party members.
The corresponding Magian trials will be exceedingly difficult to complete, such that only a select number of PCs will be able to upgrade weapons to this stage.

Afterglow bestows beneficial status effects upon party members in an area surrounding (but excluding) the wielder.

The duration for each Afterglow is thirty seconds.

Separate Afterglow effects will stack if they are cast within the same effect duration.

There are five categories of Afterglow effects:

• Relic Weapons: Increased accuracy and ranged accuracy
  
• Mythic weapons: Increased attack and ranged attack
  
• Empyrean weapons: Increased critical hit rate
  
• Aegis: Reduced magic damage taken
  
• Ochain: Reduced physical damage taken
  

Afterglow effects activate when the weapon skill corresponding to the equipped weapon
For Aegis and Ochain, the effects activate when Shield Bash is used.

The hierarchy for overwriting Aftermath and Afterglow effects is as follows:
One's Own Aftermath: Lv3>Lv2>Lv1>Party Member's Afterglow
