    They could add 450 Revelation tomes and I am not sure if they can get enough to do it. Time and time again I have tried and its always the same, not enough, wipe, mettel loss, rinse and repeat. This is feeling like it will be the first relic I have failed to complete since relics were released at the beginning. If they want more to do this, they need to look at the penalties. One wipe and its all over, try again the next time you can get 23 people to do it? Sigh... How did they not see this being a total disaster?

    Oh they'll get enough if they sweeten the pot. We'll have to wait and see. They did say it was a problem and that people are having trouble completing the quest line. Just hope this hot patch they announced it soon. I have a toon at R9 on Gilga and need Castrum soon. If need be I'll go with Discord but I suspect the new reward structure will be worth it for me.

    Oh there are plenty of incentives to make people want to do it. Fragments, Mettle, Role xp, Memory Drops, increased drop rate for Upgrades and so on. Tomes too can be an incentive. I'd suggest you wait and see what they have planned before writing it off.

    The idea of in zone deployment worked just fine until they added coins to skirmishes and CE's.
