Do they think we'll wait for a year to get the legendary relic 'progress'? every one of us with 6-7 runes WILL HAVE to get ALL the relics we need for all of our build during that time.. that WILL be an expensive waste of gold if we'll also still have to spend more gold to get the legendary relic..
There shouldn't have even been a discussion about it, 6-7 legendary runes should automatically give you the legendary relic on release, and if legendary relics are not released with the expansion, they should at the VERY LEAST give all of us ALL the relics for free.. then we can wait and see the 'compensation' a year later
