The current weapon is a case of getting something for virtually nothing. The amount of effort you put into getting one is so low that even their present gimped state is honestly too strong. At least the crafted weapons require you to either make it yourself or shell out some gil. The relics presently equate to little more than "here's a kinda crappy functionally free weapon for otherwise useless tomestones you can accrue passively just by doing content you would have anyway."
