RaidCodex explanationBuffs and debuffs
A battle effect, not a stat: it works in battle when its condition is met and never appears on the champion's stat screen. The relic's own three stats are different: they always count in the champion's stats.
Worked out from the kind of effect in the game's data (ApplyBuff); not tested in battle.
Ability by level
The ability gets stronger as the relic levels up: ability level 2 at relic level 6, then 9, 12, 15 and level 6 at relic level 18. Each row is the game's own line for that level.
| Ability level | Relic level | The game's line | Value at this level |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 0 | As in the ability text | 10% |
| 2 | 6 | Shield Strength +2% | 12% |
| 3 | 9 | Shield Strength +2% | 14% |
| 4 | 12 | Shield Strength +2% | 16% |
| 5 | 15 | Shield Strength +2% | 18% |
| 6 | 18 | Shield Strength +2% | 20% |
The values are worked out from the game's skill data and agree with every line of the game's text.
Stats
These stats count in the champion's stats: the game's stat screen lists them in its "Relic" column.

Every relic uses the same stat table: a stat's value depends only on the relic's level. Rarity decides the starting rank, not the numbers. Each relic has three stats: the first works from level 0, the second from level 9 and the third from level 15.
Gemstone sockets
This relic has 4 sockets. A Gemstone only fits a socket of the same shape:
There are 5 different shapes of Gemstone, and they can only be inserted into Sockets that are the same shape.
Rank and level
Mythical Relic: starts at rank 4, which allows up to level 12. Each rank raises the maximum level by 3, up to rank 6 and level 18.
Ranking up a Relic allows to upgrade its Level further, increasing its stats and the strength of its Ability.
Relic Lore
Ripped, still beating, from the fiery chest of Tekton the Searblood. On command, a wall of licking flames radiates from this granite-hard Demonic heart, burning arrows and melting blades.
