Genuine question, what would you guys even want to do for relic anyways?

If its just running dungeons then i really doubt why the hell you prefer that over [your choice here you find fun] instead

i can do pvp or frontlines and get the stuff i need that way, i i have to do old expac alliance raids id scream.

The book step in ARR has some issues but one thing it got right was how that step touched different pieces of content. If each step of a relic was a bit more like WT type of system where you have a choice over different pieces of content to get MacGuffin A and then another choice over these pieces of content to get MacGuffin B, then I think there would still be that sense of earning the relic while also not limiting players to just one or two specific things to grind. Someone could still say "Hey this is the best risk/reward for me" and grind out one thing, but it's a conscious choice then like how people find what they like for Moogle tomes instead of SE choosing for us.

if its just farming a wide variety of content like with moogle tomes, then isnt that just what it is now?

Instead of an item to farm or %chance farm just use the tomes you get from said variety of content anyways? It doesnt seem signifigant enough to want that over what we have now when they are in the end the same thing with less middle man

The difference with a moogle tome system is that you do still have a make a choice to focus on something specific. I think it's that choice part that's important and makes it feel earned. I do enjoy relic steps that allow you to passively get upgrades from daily activities like back in ARR with the daily alexandrite map quest. But it's also nice to have the ones that do point you at a handful of options and let you choose. Plus there's the camaraderie of finding others on that journey and continuing to run into them and cheering each other on.

Most likely just play the same roulettes you have been doing for the last X years of this expansion.

Surely your not bored of doing the same dungeons for almost 2 years, right?

i go less efficient and just do things i consider fun for tomes

aka pvp and ex trials

id pop a blister if we went the ARR book route everyone was clamering about i hate the zeta line

idk, busting my ass for a relic weapon for gear catchup that will only marginally better than final savage weapon AT THE END is annoying. I use relic as a gear filler for my alt classes and rather spend my time in raids/ catching up on older alts then be given a way more annoying wonderous trials.
