Premise: FotM10 takes at least 40 minutes and can potentially take over 2 hours. For most people, this is not a reasonable time investment, especially not on a daily basis. I personally have 1 potential fractal day a week, maybe 2 or 3 if lucky. As such, ignoring potential failed runs, getting the 2 rings takes 20 weeks or almost 5 months.

Goal: to allow faster pristine relic gain for time limited players, without invalidating the regular fractal runs for people who can invest more time.

I have the following suggestion:

Shorter fractal run consisting of only 2 random fractals, second one could potentially be maw. Boss chest drops regular relic amount, not the maw relic amount.
Daily chest on this fractal gives 60% chance for pristine relic and no chance for rings. This smaller daily chest takes away your chance at the regular daily chest.

+ allows people with less time to compete in FotM
+ rewards are scaled without introducing new currencies
+ the 60% chance makes this run favored to the player without making it more powerful than regular runs
+ regular runs still have merit because of increased fractal relic gain, certain pristine relic and chance at rings.

personally I don’t see any negatives. Feel free to discuss.
