Hmmm... That sound like it's one of two possibilities:

1) It's a bug and should be reported.
2) It's a feature disincentivize botting/"carry" parties.

I lean towards the latter as they actually want people to work through getting the relic rather than waiting until someone is 20 and can speed-level them with shared exp without having them needing to do anything.
