I think long DR groups usually are about 40 minutes to an hour? So they'd come out roughly equal in a long DR group but essence DR could be completely done in less than hour and have some drops toward the next weapon.

There's really no reason they can't make any POTD floor a guaranteed drop so you can get them if you're helping someone go from 1 to 50 like I did a few days ago, or spamming the floor of your choice.

A roulette option really would also be nice since as someone mentioned in the thread, both the current options you have to go out of your way for and there is no passive gathering option for repeatable steps like with the other steps. 50+ would work and someone also mentioned earlier that the Nier raids don't have a relic incentive so that would be another good option.

There's precendent in all relic steps except really SB (maybe the Echo? I don't think they've reduced the massive crystal amount needed) to streamline some of these steps in later expansions and they really don't have to adjust it very much to ease the bottleneck nature of the step.
All l can say is that the red mage sb relic is what l really wanted... I am not making another one until potd drop gets a buff
