Your very first post suggesting it take months to obtain this item suggests nothing short of a "casual bull**** grinder game" except this time you spend months working for something so someone else can have it. Sounds like tons of fun to me.
The black and white graals aren't such an awful idea because they take very little time to obtain, but honestly, you're suggesting spending a huge amount of time getting an item only to have the potential to lose it quickly would be entertaining? Have fun with the 3 other people you might be able to find who'd be interested in that gameplay.

if you don't suck at the game you can utilize the bonus's given by working for such an item that you won't lose it easily. you seem to be in fear of losing the time spent on the game: that's the entire point. you don't want to lose, do you? well you better be able to fend off your loot
or you can flip it around. go and take someone else's stuff so you don't have to spend the time on making it yourself - it'll be hard to do so, but if you are successful then you get a great item
you're putting all your cards into most people quitting when they lose their stuff. from my experience on MMOs, the opposite happens: they start playing more after they lose their stuff. perhaps you're just the type of person who quits in fits of rage when they lose?
