It's not really a "bit much".

They don't want you getting your relic on the first day it releases.

Just doing daily roulettes + maybe 2-3 alex runs a day will let you finish this first stage in a little over a month.


Though the prices for some things could use tweaking (Especially them Precision Gordian), they don't need to nerf the entire grind or else people will be rocking a relic before the end of the week.
