I'd rather just not need to equip it at all.
If your job matches an active Relic quest line, it should benefit from the dungeon, equipped or not. Done and done. I understand that there's a bit of a lore benefit to requiring it be equipped, but it's still a really stupid idea.
I agree. More prompting and double-checking and "ARE YOU SURE?" boxes aren't the answer. SE needs to streamline these things wherever possible. Incidentally, one thing that bothers me about the Market Board is the verification prompt that comes up if you attempt to buy an item you can't equip. I wish there was a character / system setting option to disable this behaviour.
