Relic Shield actually did appear on AD Carries during internal testing and Riot was fine with that. AD Carries rarely finished the item, but it was essentially gave 40+ gold to the support every minute. If both the ADC and the support took it, that's 80 extra gold each per minute.

However, it does eat-up your first-item gold. It would probably be a better second-purchase if you have a bit of spare gold.
