Make relics have the same iLVL as the Raid weapons and released at the same time

[Lastelli]

I suggest that the final requirement in obtaining the fully upgraded Relic for it to be BiS (on top of the crazy grinding) should be having to trade in the highest ilvl raid weapon, amongst other things. That way you wont be able to skip the toughest end game material.

I would be totally favorable to a relic that requires a very light grind, but also requires to complete the hardest content in the game. In that case, there wouldn't be anything wrong with a BiS relic. Unfortunately, the dev team wants the relic to be locked behind content that anyone can easily clear, so that's not going to happen.
