Relics are equippable items that provide various passive boosts for the player. Relics are rewarded upon completing an expedition, whether it results in a win or loss. Relics can also be bought from the merchants in the Roundtable Hold.

Higher rarity Relics can contain better passive effects, so farming as many Relics as possible is recommended to get the best relics for your characters.
