Relics
20 relics of the old gods, worn in Curios slots. Each one gives a perk, an ability and a real cost.
Where to find them
Relics are bonus loot in these vanilla chests, one relic picked at random. Chests in Hades' Ruins have a 1 in 7 chance of one too, and Kapelos can have a Nightshade Vial.
| Chest | Chance |
|---|---|
| Ancient City | 8% |
| Bastion Treasure | 25% |
| End City Treasure | 10% |
| Nether Bridge | 4% |
Relic abilities use the relic key, which cycles through what you are wearing.
