Here is all the info you need to create a powerful Restored Relic Build:
Note: High-Level Weapon Cores boost your weapons’ damage numbers into insanity. Make sure to get weapon cores as soon as possible!
Restored Relic Modules
Modules are an important part of every weapon build in The First Descendant. For the Restored Relic launcher, we want to focus on Multi-hit, elemental damage, and increase the explosion radius.
- Serena Players: If you are Serena or Gley, you don’t need any of the Magazine size or Rounds increase modules, because she can instantly reload by dashing. Replace these with Multi-Hit modules.
- Flex Spots: I will indicate modules that you can replace with (Flex).
- Elemental Damage: Adjust the elemental modules depending on what enemies you fight (Enemy elemental weakness)
| Module Slot | Module Name | Socket Type |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Multi-Piercing Sights |  Rutile |
| 2 | Action and Reaction |  Malachite |
| 3 | Charge Amplification | Malachite |
| 4 | Fire Rate UP |  Xantic |
| 5 | Increased Radius | Xantic |
| 6 | Ammo Optimization | Xantic |
| 7 | Chill Priority |  Cerulean |
| 8 | Multi-Percussion Sight | Rutile |
| 9 | Chill Enhancement | Cerulean |
| 10 | Expand High-Power Magazine (Flex) | Xantic |
Weapon Readjustment
You can use the Weapon Readjustment at the Weapon Workbench in Albion. Here are the best Weapon Readjustments for the Restored Relic:
- Explosive ATK
- Elemental Damage (Preferably Chill)
- Multi-Hit Damage
- Multi-Hit Chance
Try to upgrade the Weapon Readjustments to at least purple quality.
Weapon Cores
Weapon Cores juice up your damage quite tremendously. However, especially the later-level Weapon Cores are difficult to get. So start with whatever weapon cores you have available. Weapon Cores drop in the Void Erosion Purge endgame activity.
Higher level Weapon Cores drop in the higher level Void Erosion Purge levels in The First Descendant. However, you can gradually work towards the highest level. I recommend trying to get to level six as soon as possible, since it won’t require clearing many stages and will already increase the power of your weapon tremendously.
Best Weapon Cores for the Restored Relic:
Fire Rate (Free Augmentation)- Fire Rate(Free Augmentation)
- Chill ATK (Attribute Augmentation)
- Chill ATK (Attribute Augmentation)
- Fire Rate (Tactical Augmentation)
Fire Rate (Free Augmentation)
Chill ATK (Attribute Augmentation)
Fire Rate (Tactical Augmentation)Fire Rate weapon cores are important on the Restored Relic launcher. Additionally, you can swap out Chill ATK for any other attribute depending on enemy weaknesses!
Restored Relic Launcher Lore
The Weapons Development Department’s many tasks include not only the development and application of new technologies, but also the analysis and restoration of ancient technologies. There remained parts of the Ancestors’ technology that were too advanced for today’s scholars and Magisters to restore.
The fruit of one successful project was a launcher called “Restored Relic”. The problem was understanding exactly how it functioned. It was announced to the public that it was restored to its original state, but in truth they had still not uncovered the Ancestors’ core technology.
For instance, they never discovered how this weapon reacts to Arche or how it emits flames. The Magisters simply announced that this technology held great potential for future use, making it a high priority for research.
