I'm honestly at a loss for words with just out of touch the developers are with the player base. I mean we knew it was bad but the devs seriously think that?

They think it should require 18 people to kill a mob multiple times to finish 1 persons 99 Relic? And then have that mob be restricted by a once per RL day limit. Plus all the pre-pop NM's and the main NM are going to be a huge bottleneck because there's only 1 ??? for all the NM's pops and hundreds of Relics per server.

Unless Umbral Marrow is made available from other sources then it is a completely unreasonable trial. Congestion, in-game restrictions and mob difficulty just make it a ludicrous trial even if the required number of items was vastly reduced. I would rather do the Empyrean or Mythic trial instead. Hell, I would rather do both of them instead.

Bottom line is that this trial is hugely demoralising to 99.9% of relic holders out there. I know I just won't bother with it if I'm still playing at that point. And I can say with 100% certainty that applies to all 15 Relics in my LS.
