It's like wine , get's better as time goes by.
Honestly Relic final form should be on par with End Game weapons. These Relic quest are starting to become more and more time consuming, which people asked for. So I don't see why Relic can't be on par with the best End Game Weapon down the road. Here is the problem I see with Relic becoming the best weapon, The people who aren't working on it will cry. The ones who aren't working on their weapons are going to get butt hurt, because they decided to stick with Coils and not upgrade. Granted 2.3 Hunts will make obtaining a Novus even easier, But we don't know how the next quest will be.

Yes I get that Coils gear takes "Skill" and these Relic Quest don't, but these are very time consuming. I don't know how much time it will take 6 months from now to try and start Atma- whatever form. But Relics really do need to be the same ilvl as the other weapons, Even if its tied to End Game.

Also when we do get the final form, I wonder what the plans will be to keep Relic relevant? Will SE make a whole new Relic Quest line Or will SE just be smart and make us do quest that are time consuming to increase ilvl?

And just for the ones who say Relic shouldn't be the best or on par with Coils weapons, Its not our fault SE Can't come up with a better system of rewards. Why does Coils even drop weapons, Honestly they screwed up. I could see different ways they could have did T9 rewards. Why didn't they make the Upgrade Items for the Soldiery weapons drop there. Or they could have taken T5 weapons and made them upgradeable from a T9 Reward and then called them High Allagan. Would have kept T5 relevant for most players who don't even do it now.
