Relics

Relics are permanent bonuses woven onto earned gear by Qadim the Relicweaver in The Dunes East. Bring an eligible item and 5 Gold, and the shard rolls one of the 60 Relics — 20 for tools, 20 for weapons, and 20 for armor. The item only ever draws from its own category: a tool receives a tool Relic, a sword a weapon Relic, an armor piece an armor Relic.

A Relic belongs to the item, not the player. It shows on the item's Marketplace listing, and transfers with the item when it is sold or traded. Items carrying a Relic can't be stored in a guild bank.

Weaving

• The weave costs 5 Gold per item.
• Qadim takes items from your carried inventory, hotbar, or worn Armor row — never from the Bank.
• The Relic tier is rolled first, then a Relic of that tier from the item's category.

Tier	Chance	Relics per category
Common	60%	8
Uncommon	25%	5
Rare	10%	4
Legendary	4%	2
Mythic	1%	1

The three Mythic Relics — Qadim's Fortune (tools), Qadim's Wrath (weapons), and Qadim's Embrace (armor) — sit at the top of the ladder, above Legendary.

Rerolling

An already-woven item can be brought back to Qadim for a fresh roll:

• Each reroll costs 5 Gold and replaces the item's Relic with a freshly rolled one.
• A reroll is a fresh roll at the normal odds, so it can land a lower tier than the Relic it replaces, or even the same Relic again.
• An item can be rerolled at most 10 times. After the tenth reroll it locks with whatever it holds.
• The item itself — its durability and identity — is unchanged; only the Relic is replaced.

Removal

A Relic can never be detached or moved to another item. The only way to be rid of one is to destroy the item that carries it: drag the item onto the Trash slot in your inventory. The game warns "Destroy item AND its relic?" — the Relic is destroyed with the item and can never be recovered.

A Relic also goes wherever its item goes. If a woven tool or armor piece runs out of durability, it breaks and the Relic is lost with it (a Repair keeps it safe). A woven item that drops into your tombstone when you die in the Wilderness, Emberstone or the Dunes keeps its Relic, for you or whoever loots it; one you carry or wear when you die in the Glade Cave is destroyed along with its Relic.

Eligible gear

Earned gear only — the free trainer handouts are refused.

• Tools: Iron Pickaxe, Copper Pickaxe, Silver Pickaxe, Iron Axe, Copper Axe, Silver Axe, Level 2 Fishing Rod, Fire-Resistant Fishing Rod
• Weapons: Iron Sword, Copper Sword, Silver Sword
• Armor: every Iron and Silver piece (Iron Helmet, Iron Body Armor, Iron Legguards, Iron Boots, Silver Helmet, Silver Body Armor, Silver Legguards, Silver Boots)

Caps

• Armor Relic stats cap at 10% per stat across all worn armor Relics. All armor damage-reduction Relics together, conditional ones included, give at most 10% on any single hit. Venom Ward and Scorpion Ward are counted separately, with their own 10% cap, and apply on top of that against venomous creatures.
• Identical armor procs on several pieces combine to at most a 10% chance.
• Attack speed from Relics is capped at 15%; gathering speed at 14% (including Momentum Glyph).
• Every follow-up strike (empowered hits, bonus-damage procs, echo hits) is clamped at 15 damage.
• Maximum-HP Relics can raise the health pool to at most 110.
