Relics aren't hard to get, though, but are merely a case of doing time-consuming repetitive tasks centered around primarily outdated content. It's supposedly designed for people without the desire to raid, or do any challenging content, yet still want a top weapon; however with the way this game adds gear with a short shelf life the intended target audience will spend more time chasing the carrot (grinding for the weapon) than actually getting any substantial use out of it once acquired.
