Solutions for Content Drought during between Patches & other solutions for Gameplay

I also have an idea:

Bring the relic quest earlier.

This. The relic quest should start in X.05 with a light intro and starter weapon and every step after that in X.15, X,25, X.35, X.45 and X.55 should be grindy.

I fully agree and support this position, if the relic was similar to the ARR or HW relics, we would have plenty to keep us busy. As it stands now, the relics are only BIS in the final patch and mostly glamours. I do not like how they are starting the relics for the last two patches with an entire patch cycle set where you simply buy it with tomes. I can grind all the tomes I need in a few casual days and then I am done. We need more content that lingers and while I hoped that the island would have been more interesting, for me, I really fell out doing it because I do not like stock market simulator.

Content drought wise, this is for me, the worst I have ever seen it and I have been here since the launch of ARR. If it was not for my static or my house, I would have fully gone into hibernation until the 6.5 patch. For some reason, the content that we have been getting since 6.0 has felt really watered down. Deep down, I think it was a mistake to wrap up the story in 6.0 instead of 6.3 but here we are, in a drought with only drops of content to keep us alive.

Maybe the relic will save us... maybe...
