No matter what you do, as soon as weapons of a certain class become commonplace enough for group leaders to reasonably fill the alliance, people will begin to demand them.
Because X weapon should not be "weapon that takes ages to catch up to endgame in a completely different area when everything else is plasm farming and bayld". Now, if they also did AF +3 the same way, making it a similar long-term goal in such areas? We're all equal then. Equally miserable, but equal. The heavier the burden of getting what's considered "required for endgame", the worse things will become. Look at it.

Also, what kind of hoops are you talking about? If you’re talking about Empy 95-99 then yes that’s unreasonable. Likewise, Mythic to 75 has been discussed to death. But relics to 99 are a reasonable long-term goal for anybody. Long term goals that can be completed on the side are the most crucial aspect missing from the game right now.
You mean sitting there and stabbing ADL repeatedly for vials of marrow easy? Again, I'm not talking rendering RME obsolete, I'm talking making RME's useful but not -required- for endgame.

Let those who had them, update them to make them useful again. Let those that didn't NOT have to go through the same song and dance to face top content.
