Developing for raids - still worth it?

Running it twice a week, you probably have 40 more times to feel sorry for yourself. This is the game mode that gives the most gear and now you pick what you need. Relic up the squads for now.
We don’t know how the next raid is going to work, is it 5 squads of 5 still? Who knows it may be five runs of one toon. Half that list for the new raid, the veteran player had at r3 to r8 now. The other half are still being farmed and already know will be great at high levels so save relic materials when you are 50 shards away from 7-star.
