Is reaching relic 7 even worth it?
So I find this particular issue to be very frustrating. Call me a newb but is it really worth the trouble of fully relicing a toon? Sure mods make all the difference because by the end of the day ever...

I would rather have 30%-50% more toons at r5.
Those last 2 steps are worth something, but you can get another toon a large hunk of the way from g12+0 to g13 with the gear and other effort you use up taking a toon from r5 to r7. So is what those two steps are worth really enough that you'd rather have 2x r7 instead of 3x r5?
It makes even less sense (at least to me) when you talk about entire teams worth of relic 7. With different requirements for different combat missions and a need for a mix of LS and DS toons in Geo TBs, plus your Arena squad, which might be different as well, and then there's GAC...
... I think that while it might be worth it to take your Arena squad to 5x r7, depending on your shard and your expectations for success, having 3 more r5 squads is going to be more valuable than 2 more r7 squads.
I have a number of r7 toons as well, but I limit that to situational toons that are already exceptional, GL requirements, and the occasional requirement for Fleet (since you can't mod to get higher speed).
Other people may differ, I'd simply rather have a wider variety of squads that are competent to play in the various different game modes than have a couple squads that dominate when they qualify, but leave me unable to compete in other game modes when my few r7 squads aren't eligible.
