some of us have been playing this game for almost 10 years.
Getting a relic over the period of 2 years only requires 4-6 hours of gameplay a week. that's a lot less than even the most casual of FFXI players.
Getting a mythic weapon only really requires 1 year of 4-5 hours gameplay a week depending on alexandrites and success with T3 znms and drops, dedication of group etc. I would argue Mythics are probably the hardest of the 3 to attain, so funny that they are the worst.
Empyreans require 3-4 months at a very conservative play rate. or 3-5 days at a none-stop heavy 10 hour/day grind.

Anyone who started playing this game in 2002/'03 could easily have attained all 3 by now, and many people do, as well as other goodies. I know at least 20 players who have several relics and several empyreans and maybe 1 mythic.
