Otherwise, you'd be done with stuff quick, then stand around looking pretty until next update. Try playing FFXIV: A Realm Reborn. You'll see what I mean.
But you didn't need a relic to do endgame back then.

The writing is already on the wall for SE to begin designing content around people having JPs and the corresponding gifts even though few players have made meaningful progress on them. A small handful of vocal forum goers are making it sound a lot easier than it actually is for the rank and file player. John Q Linkshell Leader and his Merry Band of Sycophants and Dual Box Bots are not reflective of the community as a whole. I want SE to understand that before they let things get out of hand.
