While I can understand thinking DR is boring (at the HP levels it currently syncs to), I can't agree with this being any better. Fates are, by and large, all the same, regardless of zone. There's boss fates, aoe'able fates, and item collection fates, and you find those repeated across zones, with different enemy models + easily dodgable aoes. To me, fates in mor dhona, the lochs, or the tempest, are all the same, the enemy may change slightly but ultimately doing the same thing. It's not great content, and DR would definitely be better to me if the bosses had a bit less HP to put them more in-line with variant dungeons or something.

Relics have always had boring steps, and it'd be great if they're better (especially for older artifacts), but I don't think DR's really something to be singled out here. Maybe they could add a poetics option to old relic steps like this which are old+require groups, but at the same time since these steps are meant to ensure those dungeons are at least always slightly populated, I wouldn't be surprised if they never made an alternative.
