See where you're going with this and I agree with what you said. However, there's one thing you need to remember:

Zodiac Questline resumes in 3.1. If the Zodiac weapon line, AKA our current Relics are continuing, I can assure you these weapons will be continuously recrafted and remelded throughout the lifetime of this game. Now assume you need to have the 2.51 relic in order too start the 3.1 quest.

Now think about it in another 3 years. The playerbase may of doubled and maybe 1/4 of the current existing players have of quit. There's already a small percentage as it is with current zodiac weapons.

In the years, Relics will literally be relics, as only such a small percentage of the playerbase will actually have them and would've went through the trouble of going through all of the relic stages all throughout the years and expansion packs. They have the right to own the "ultimate weapon of all time" if they've been going through that for years.
