Whoever thinks the new relic weapons will be something else besides a mindless grind is at best daydreaming.

It's time to repopulate the 3.0 dead zones everyone was complaining about, and what better way to do it than having people grind 100-200 hours worth of FATES for some cool skin that will get replaced 2 patches down the road.

Thus the whole Atma now called Crystal grind, the same old thing with a different skin.
