    Manderville is more popular than they anticipated and they wanted it to be more worth the time to create, so here we are.

    They won't be worth the time to create until they SE stops staggering their item level so hard, regardless of what they are gated behind. The relics were well worth it in ARR and Heavensward since they would become BiS in a much more reasonable timeframe. What we have now is... I mean, why even bother? Whoopdie do, that weapon you wasted a bunch of time on is BiS for like a week. Putting them behind Manderville quests was just the icing on the cake.

    I might've considered going all in on them anyway if we'd gotten another Eureka. Even Bozja was... well, Bozja was okay, at least. I might've gone for another Bozja-type deal too, albeit not with anywhere near the same interest as I might've had for something even remotely close to Eureka.

    I'm talking about the work that goes into the Manderville scenes being worth the time.

    What? You don't think spending 1500 tomestones is fun?
