Relic Farming Strategy
How to efficiently obtain and upgrade relics

Farming Priority

  1. Complete Story Mode on Nightmare difficulty (75% modulation) to unlock Body & Leg pieces
  2. Farm Virtual Realm repeatedly to get Head pieces - this is the bottleneck
  3. Focus on completing 1-2 full sets before spreading resources
  4. Match relic sets to unit roles and traits for maximum synergy
  5. Upgrade relics using enhancement materials from daily/weekly missions
  6. Enhance relics to maximum level (Level 15) to unlock their full potential
  7. Continue farming Nightmare mode to ensure all essential units have best-in-slot mythic relics

Relic Enhancement

Relics can be upgraded using enhancement stones obtained from various game modes. Higher-level relics provide significantly better stat bonuses. Prioritize upgrading relics on your main carry units first before enhancing support unit relics.

Best Relic Sets: Master Ninja for hybrid units (20% DOT boost), Junior Ninja for support (1.1x buff multiplier), Laughing Captain for Lulu (reduces active CD), Sun God for high attack speed units like Kriatu.
