I have about 900 Myths to burn right now. My Bard already has his Myth pants, but hasn't upgraded the Relic yet.

My question is this: People really don't understand how small of an upgrade the Artemis +1 really is. For those of you that have skipped it, are you experiencing any issues getting into shout groups? Do you consider yourself a Bard +1 still, and do you address this caveat?

I was attempting to talk to a monk about this, and his response was, "You never pass up your relic upgrade. Never." As wrong as he is for Min/Max, it makes me worry about the people that don't understand it.
