Chained to what? Making sure your glorified glamour weapon is up to date for your own made up arbitrary reasons? Relic and savage gearing are separated. If you don't raid, you won't need those few extra ilvls relic provides compared to regular tome weapon. If you do raid, you will have better weapon before next relic step releases. And you don't need either of that, savage is clearable at min ilvl, which right now is 20-30 ilvls lower than current relic. You really don't need relic, stop acting like it's something mandatory. If you don't like it, don't do it, just like I won't do (aka buy) more than 1 or 2 EW relics for my mains, since AST tomes are better spent elsewhere.

And by EW relics I mean combat relics, I'm going to get all crafter and gatherer ones, those are actually entertaining.
