Relic Guide

Relic Progression, Shard Planning, and Best Faction Loadouts

Track shard costs by rarity and keep your best relic sets lined up for League, Nature, and Horde teams.

Top Priority
One Relic
Push one carry relic hard before spreading shards around.
Best Budget Value
Epic
Epic relics can carry much longer than most players expect.
Best Use
Set Synergy
Mix buffs, utility, and faction needs instead of chasing rarity alone.

How to Get Relics

  • Tavern: use relic scrolls in the relic tab whenever you are ready to focus one target.
  • Guild Store: scrolls are one of the safest long-term purchases if you are building toward a full set.
  • Bosses and events: shards add up over time, especially when you save for relic-focused event windows.

Upgrade Strategy

  • Stay focused: one heavily progressed relic is usually better than several half-built ones.
  • Respect Epic relics: an advanced Epic relic can outperform a barely started Legendary relic for a long time.
  • Check the all-hero buffs: some steps matter much more than others, so plan around those checkpoints.
