Why are people complaining about the relic nerf?

I complain because a good MAJORITY purposely wait for nerfs and SE still won't create interesting concepts for the weapons.

I think that this is one of the biggest issues. I will admit that although I did start the relic, I stopped at one point precisely because I knew it would just get nerfed. If they were to make them reliant on interesting challenges instead of grinds, or perhaps a combination of the two so that there is a decent balance, more players might feel more motivated. My personal issue is that while the relic weapon itself is interesting, the journey and progress has not been, even since 1.0. Sadly, I really am not too sure what can be done to make it all more interesting.

To those who spent many hours and weeks grinding to get their relic up to now and are legitimately upset that things have been nerfed, people having an easier way to get the weapon does not dismiss your achievement, please do not let it get to you.

Thats what I think a lot of people want. Not just a straight up grind fest of RNG items or tons of tome items. I just wish SE would go back to that type of content. Having a mixture and balancing the two is totally acceptable, I know I would I enjoy that much more.

This^^ So much THIS! People, understand that players like myself who have yet to even start a relic can never say the same as you when it comes to acquiring said relic. And players like me, have the upmost respect that you went through that grind.

Some people in my FC couldn't understand why I insisted on gathering x100 NQ/HQ logs and rocks for my gatherers despite the requirement being lowered to x30 for your supra/lucis tools, and I told them that this was the old requirement, and that is EXACTLY what I am going to do. I will simply spend the excess on cordials, but I wanted the same grind. I wanted to say the same thing as the players before me, and I will still do it with these relics as well.
