Okay they weren't lying about the relic

We are getting new relic zones thank you SE. Eureka and Bozja have some of the best content this game has to offer in my opinion. Just took a Hali alt though Eureka for her WHM relic and plan on doing BA with her at some point. Hit 25 in Bozja yesterday and Dalraida is up next. Never gets old for me.

This relic grind has been a real disappointment for me personally and I'm glad they are at least for 7.0 going back to instanced zones.

They confirmed we're getting new exploratory zones but I haven't heard anything about relics and if they will be involved or separate questlines. Is there an interview somewhere where it was mentioned? I try to keep up on the post-Fan Fest interviews but sometimes there's one I don't see.

It has not been mentioned one way or the other.

Considering the Field Operations zone appears to be a late content add to the expansion, I suspect the relic questline will be independent of it. That doesn't mean that the zone won't be an option for getting whatever is needed for the relics, just that it won't be a primary factor for them unlike Eureka and Bozja.
