- If you're not going to allow Excal to benefit from Enlight (due to the addl. effect on the sword) you should look at improving the sword in other ways: some ACC or additional dps directly on the sword.

- The Addl. effect on excal should generate enmity. Even if arguably useless until you guys fix the enmity system as whole, this will help a little bit outside of Abyssea.

- KotR is weak. Make it stronger.


PS - I have both Almace and Excalibur so I don't feel this is a biased perspective.
Relics are fun like that. They have these Add effect that is usually rather lack luster or outlandish. Kikoku gives a low tier paralyze. Guttler gives choke. Gungnir gives 17% def down and overwrites angon def down. Their add effects are all pretty silly aside from a few.
As for that Add Effect adding more enmity, that weapon is not JUST intended for a Pld, but Rdm as well. That enmity increase (plus with the enmity system adjustments coming) could be quite a slap in the face to the Rdm that uses an Excalibur.
And as for the ws, most of them are weak. If you are a pld or rdm with an Excalibur then you should be using your Merit WS that can really put out some dmg. And if it is a high def mob where that ws won't work then you use Almace for CDC.
Scourge, KotR, Blade: Metsu, Geirskogul, and yada yada don't do much dmg, but the perk to this is that we have merit ws's and other ws's to fix that dmg problem.
