Qadim the Relicweaver opens his house in The Dunes — bring earned gear and 5 gold, and the shard may bind one of 60 Relics to your item forever.
Relics arrive with Qadim the Relicweaver, a man in a house in The Dunes East who keeps a shard on the table and says every item carries a hidden thread. Bring him something you earned and 5 Gold, and he will bind it to something greater. Choose carefully — once woven, a Relic can never be undone.
Background
Qadim was first placed in the Dunes during Server Update v5.3 as a Coming soon NPC — work visible, service not yet ready. Official site copy described him as drawing relics out of the sand, with the line:
"The relics are restless yet. Come back when the sand has settled."
(Official v5.3 notes) His house is on The Dunes East (alongside Kaziir the Armoursmith and Sahriel the Bowbinder).
The weave
- Cost: 5 Gold per attempt.
- The shard decides which Relic you receive.
- 60 Relics exist in total:
- 20 for tools
- 20 for weapons
- 20 for armor
- Rarity runs from common up through the three of Qadim's own making:
- Qadim's Fortune
- Qadim's Wrath
- Qadim's Embrace
Eligible gear
Qadim accepts earned gear only. The free trainer kit is not eligible — he wants a tool with a story, not one you were handed this morning.
| Category | Eligible items |
|---|---|
| Tools / weapons (level 2) | Level 2 pickaxe, axe, sword, and fishing rod |
| Copper | Copper pickaxes, axes, and swords |
| Silver | Silver pickaxes, axes, and swords |
| Special | Fireproof Rod, and every piece of armor |
| Not eligible | Free trainer kit starter tools |
What Relics do
| Category | Effects |
|---|---|
| Tools | Faster swings, bigger hauls, better odds on rare finds, more XP |
| Weapons | Heavier hits, follow-through strikes, poisons, life drawn back out of a kill |
| Armor | Damage turned aside, venom blunted, a deeper health pool, and one that pulls you back from a death you should not have walked away from |
Binding rules
- A Relic belongs to one item, not to you.
- Sell that item and the Relic goes with it — it shows on the marketplace listing, and it is yours again if you buy it back.
- A Relic cannot be moved to another item, re-rolled, or removed.
Caps
| Stat / effect | Cap |
|---|---|
| Armor stats | ±10% |
| Follow-up / follow-through strikes | 15 damage |
| Deepest health pool | 110 HP |
