To me - it would be infinitely better at expansion time if SE started a new relic quest but ALSO allowed 2.0 relics to be upgraded further (with a slight variation on stats / benefits). That way new players don't fall behind and can start a new relic questline - and veterans can continue to upgrade their 2.0 relics and also start the new questline if they so desire.
