You want tomestones? Do your expert roulette once a day, you'll cap out before the week is through. That's hardly a grind.
Don't like the busywork that is the relic quest line? Don't do it. There's faster, less grindy ways to get higher iLvl weapons, and truthfully if you're not doing Coil anything higher than ilvl 120 is not really necessary anyway.
Compared to the MMOs of yesterday, sure, this game is hardly a grind. Compared to some Korean fare, sure, this is a cakewalk. Doesn't change the fact that folks not used to it are going to be bowled over by it. This is coming from someone who worked on legendaries in WoW and relic/mythic/empyrean weapons in FFXI.
Yes, that's plural. They weren't all mine, but that's because getting those weapons took entire alliances of people.
Imagine, my new-to-the-genre friends, if you needed to grind our Extreme Modes for drops and only one person in the group was allowed to collect them at a time. And those fights took 18-24 people.
