Relic: Your progress on the Grind.

[Velhart]

Is anyone else a little sad that we can't buy any of the items to trade in for sands with lore? I only have one main class, so now I'm sitting on over 1000 lore with nothing to do with them. Womp womp.

SE usually does not use the most recent currency for the relic quests. Probably so people gearing their main/secondary don't feel pressured to hold off to get the relic. One of the reasons the relic quest exists is to get players in older content and poetics/esoterics are the ones you see the most.
