Relics in their current form,with cross realming, are destabilizing the game.The idea of a reset after a period of time...or increase the difficulty of getting more than two...maybe increasing xp levels/crafting xp in those realms who have less than two.Something should be done.

Just put them on a timer. Maybe after 5 days the relics reset. This way there could (in theory) be a constant battle to always take them.
I like this one
Once a week maybe?

this is the answer for that post
this is US coming to the way to Mid on Sunset on alb land Carrying the 3th relic of the day, thats was the easy one. On the second relic Take we fight Albs on Bold with at least 2fg more than us and we win
Relic is a Big part of this game and what makes its interesting so dont mess with them

I know relics are a reason to fight...but IMO they are a symbol of yesterday ...where realm meant something. Mythic has already cut the heart out of the meaning of realm. Today for most, not all, "realm" means NOTHING. People change realms...kill guild mates and friends and it means nothing to many.It's all about "having fun...fighting.That's the sad reality of today.
Are there some who still have realm pride and fight for one realm or another...sure.IMO they are now the distinct minority.This is why I cannot re-attach to this game.Imagine a game of pro football, in which the players decide on which team they will play at any given moment.How can there be any loyalty or meaning to game play other than the immediate "got ya".

The point of having them have serious effects to the game balance, is to provide motivation for realms to go and retake them. If you nerf them to the point that all they do is affect RP scores etc, then you take away that incentive, and ensure the only thing affected is the folks RvRing rather than the whole realm. Losing your relics is supposed to hurt. Players are supposed to care, and if they are only inconvenienced slighly or unaffected entirely, then they won't care at all.
The only people affected by Relics now are the RvR'ers.
It's not like you have a PvE penalty for having no relics. Hell, the only RvR penalty you have for no relics is that the other guy has a big bonus - you still hit just as hard as you ever did, and can kill him just as fast as you ever could. Assuming, of course, that he doesn't kill you first with his boosted dps.
What relics do now is encourage people to switch realms to "follow the relics" for the extra magic/melee damage you get from extras, not from any penalty you get from having few/none of the things.

RVR is why this game still exists.PVE is everywhere and free in a growing number of great pve games.

those same people that are switching realsm to follow the relics, instead of doing that they could just retake them...
its probly more, they decide to run realm X, so they go there then take the relics, and play there... they dont follow the relic they take it were they want it to be.
it could be either scenario, or it could be that the bonus gained from relics is so minor that most people just dont give a S$^# and just play the game the way they want to without a care of where the relics are.

One thing they can do now is take relic bonuses out of the BGs where it can makes the already OP'd Albs and Mids just that much more.

Let's not. When albs have relics, we see lots of albs in BG's. When mids have relics, we see lots of mids in BG's. If relics were disabled, we wouldn't see lots of either in BG's.
