First and foremost, what most people are angry about is not the grind, though it is immense. What they (myself included) are angry about is the fact that it is completely recycled content; the zones may be different, and the items may differ, but the requirements are the same as before; well except the only enjoyable aspect of the old relic, that being the chimera/hydra/primals. Not only are they the same as before, but on top of that they've added even more grind than previously; and this is just the first stage. If people wish to obtain the ilvl210 relic by the time 3.2 comes out, then they need to utilize everything at their disposal; hunt marks, beastmen tokens, poetics, ect. Yet people have looong been burned out on hunts, and a great few have absolutely no interest in beastmen. That leaves poetics; of which you will need (if memory serves) only 54,460 poetics. Not all that much, right?

The point of all of this; while yes, the relic grind was severe before, it was at least toned down enough that people who didn't log on every single day to do everything for relic could enjoy their weapon for typically at least a month or two. Yet with the requirements for this new relic; the first stage might I add, by the time most obtain it, either 3.2 will have released with better weapons, or a mini-patch that lets us trade in our void ark tokens to upgrade our eso weapons. Either way, their struggle will have been invalidated before they even finish.

THAT, is what people are so pissed about. Happy?
