Not everyone gets their weapon immediately though. It took me 8 clears (~2 months) to get mine since I had to trade books for it. While OP's argument is ridiculous, your argument is pretty flawed as well. As I've said in a previous post, to be able to down a12s in the first week you'd need to be in a really good group, in which case you've probably invested a lot more time/effort than the majority of the playerbase. It's not a fair comparison.

Mind you, I'm not against relics being the same ilv as raid weapons, I was doing relic for my war back during midas progression, hoping for it to help my group to clear a8s (though we failed), and am doing relic for my drg now since the raid weapon is not very good. Honestly I'm fine with the current system, but I just feel that claiming that you only need a few days' worth of time investment to obtain the raid weapon is ridiculous.
