FYI -> Supra / Lucis are crafting Relics.

It's a good question, I'm hoping they continue to get upgraded. when 3.0 comes out, they will either be replaced or upgraded. I'm not chancing it, I'll be getting all of my Luci's before June.
See, that's actually where a misunderstanding occurs. They're not relics actually, at least not something literally implied to be, as there's never been any sort of indication that they are, besides that they're a class/job specific main hand. The quests that you do for the i55 original have zero to do with the weapon, but rather the overall storyline for the craft and you're just given the equip by default. They're basically only a trademark tool, mainly because it's what you see the crafting guild head NPCs use. The "relic" term being applied to the crafting tools is a player-applied term to make it easier to grasp what someone is talking about.

Maybe they will have some use though in the expansion, besides leveling assistance, and since you don't want to chance it, by all means go for it.
