Actually, relics are meant to serve as alternatives for people who do raid and are getting screwed over by RNG. It's something not gated by RNG that a raider can fall back on so they can start the next new set of raids without having to continue farming the previous one for a similar weapon and never see it drop (which happens, to this day I have >60 t5 clears and still have never seen the MNK or Healer weapons drop once).
lol RNG. Atma, Animus, and Zodica would like to have a word with you.Actually, relics are meant to serve as alternatives for people who do raid and are getting screwed over by RNG.

Those are parts of the Zodiac weapon, not the original Relic and what it was designed for. The Zodiac weapon creation quest introduced RNG into the equation and made it nothing more than a time sink. It lost its purpose by then and it was actually quicker, cheaper, and easier to just aim for the the raid drop.
It's still RNG no matter how you slice it. There was massive outcry with Atma in the original form because some people got stuck for weeks or months due to the required drops not dropping. No matter if you went for a raid weapon or relic, you could not escape from RNG.
They won't make it 205 , its gonna go straight to 210.
Why are you saing that the relic weapons will require the alexander savage weapons? No hell no, that is never going to happen. SE will never put raid and relic weapons on the same path. They didnt even do this with coil back on 2.X
I dont understand why are you so confused O.O
With 5 entire steps, one would hope so.
Actually it's intention was for the "casual" player base. It's an alternative for those who don't raid but want to put in the time for a weapon on par with one, or rather, on par after a few months after the raiding weapons are out.Actually, relics are meant to serve as alternatives for people who do raid and are getting screwed over by RNG.

Relic 2.0 did not require endgame hardcore raiding.....YES
Relic 3.0 will not require endgame hardore raiding.....YES
Trust me i come from the future.
If relic weapons required AS4 weapon, mercenary groups would make BANK.
