Point in case: These are gonna get harder and harder to make.
Another good point. And since we're required to use these to craft the items, they may be baking in an effect that helps with that.

We also don't know what potential changes might happen with crafting in the future. Could they perhaps make this effect more beneficial in normal recipes in the next expansion? I don't think it's outside the realm of possibility. So we may find ourselves very glad we put in the time to get them. And if not, they're still going to be nice glams. And it's nice that the Splendorous Tools weren't a one-off and crafting and gathering are getting these relic quests with stories instead of the system in ARR.
