You're actually so true about this. SE has to kind of base itself from the origin point (which is Japan) and everything they think about kinda stems from how that group goes at it. As such, relics ARE the thing that non-raiders are supposed to go for because they are so attuned to the idea that the endgame stuff is the stuff you have to work for. They largely had/have no idea that US players buy their coil runs and can therefore obtain what is supposed to be won with effort. To them, the relic should never be the best because EVERYONE can obtain one.

Hopefully they clue into the fact that people are not doing things the way they originally imagined and try to compensate in some way. Like, make relic and endgame weapons even more comparable because you're either going to do the longer process or do/buy a fight and hope for a drop.
