When playing through the raid with people you aren't familiar with, it's sometimes hard to tell who should pick up the relic. Obviously the person to pick it up should be the one who is most competent with it. A friend of mine came up with this method of figuring out who picks it up: Be honest with yourself and how good you are with it. Then rank yourself Expert, Decent, Needs Improvement Expert is a "one second" relic user Decent is a "two seconds" and Needs Improvement a "three seconds" After some experience, the team leader can assign these rankings to players in the team. What this means is that when you get teleported, if you are a one-second relic user, you pick it up within the first second of teleporting. A two-second relic user waits two seconds, and a three second relic user waits three seconds. One of the best things we did to make the Aetheon battle go much more smoothly was to establish a ranked order on who should pick up the relic so that we aren't deciding last second during each teleport.
