Greetings Etherealians, today we're going to be covering some of the basics and some ins and outs of Ethereal's Relic system.
To begin, you'll want to find "Two-pints" at home. You'll find her swaying back and forth right next to the training dummy and Occult Altar.
The relics interface is pretty simple but can feel intimidating at first if you're not sure what's going on.
To start off, we have 7 empty slots we can fill with relics. To choose relics to add, we must use our Achievement Points obtained from completing various tasks around the world of Ethereal.
Relics have varying costs, depending on what you're trying to do, picking more cheap relics may be more worthwhile than choosing a few expensive ones.
You, probably Wrote:But Remington, I don't want to waste my points on something I don't need later!
Well calm the hell down, I'm getting to it. Relics reset EVERY 24 HOURS. Once you activate your relic set, they will be active for 24 hours. After 24 hours, your relics will be de-activated and you must return to activate it again. While your relic set is ACTIVE, you are unable to change out your relics. Once your relic set is NOT ACTIVE, you can change out your relics as you see fit. You can have either a total of 7 relics active, or as many as you can afford.
You should activate as many relics in the respective sections as possible.
You again, probably Wrote:But Remington I'm only going to be mining at MLM, why would I activate the Arsonist perk also?
Stop interrupting me. We're going to cover the wonderful world of .
If you click on a perk and scroll down, you might notice there's a MAIN EFFECT as well as the SET EFFECT. You'll see the "category" that the Relic's set effect covers.
As you can see, the more perks you have that cover a specific set effect, the more rewards you'll earn. So even if you're only using the Arsonist Relic to double your XP/h in Firemaking, if you can afford to equip all 7 skilling specialist relics, you'll be earning an extra 25% xp ontop of that!
You still, probably Wrote:Okay but I'm confused, I click on them and they aren't working.
Well you gotta actually add that relic to be equipped!
Just hit add to relics and it'll be equipped!
You still, probably Wrote:I still don't think it's working
Either you don't have enough achievement points to add the relic, or you have to activate the relic set dude! After you have all the relics you want activated, click ACTIVATE. You'll get a popup making sure you're positive you're ready, it's a very common action that someone will click "ACTIVATE" to add a relic to their equipment and not have added all the relics they want.
Now, please for the love of christ, when you get to the confirmation screen, if you're ready ONLY CLICK YES. Do not tell it to never ask you again so you don't screw it up and lock yourself into the wrong relic set in the future. Unless you're willing to throw away the 5M on a reset. If you're not ready then just click no or walk away to close the dialogue box.
