For those of us Relic Hunters

Y'all aren't struggling with the Aether oil? You can actually get a group for LotA? Woah.

Actually, for the last run of World of Darkness to get my last oil, I got saddled with a 45 minute wait for the queue to pop, but I wasn't gonna let duty finder break my spirit! The umbrite step...that's breakin' me a little.

Didn't they say they're only going to 270? Since SE stated that they don't want relic weapons to be the same as the raid tier this xpac so I assume it's just gonna be 270.

Here's the thing: every other relic step for HW has been a glowing weapon. 260 glows. Presumably whatever step in 3.5 will not glow. So I'd expect another step to add a glow.

Umbrite has been the worse step so far, but I think it hit me harder as I was struggling with burnout and finding a reason to play anymore. I plan to do more of my second relic once it gets nerfed. Wife isn't looking forward to it either but she enjoys DRG enough for it to be worth it.

This step and the Mahatma one were two of my favorite steps to do to date, due in large part that I never felt forced to do only one piece of content that I may or may not enjoy, but instead, I had a nice, wide spread of content I could choose from to get the light I needed. The Umbrite step I like very much as well for a similar reason, that being the complete freedom to get whatever I need at whatever pace I want by doing content I enjoy. Efficiency only matters when you're one of the guys that needs to have everything "I'm first, guys!"
