Relics and Their Effects.
Relics give Rose extra boosts given certain conditions. They may heal Rose, give her increased damage or defense, or the like. The conditions vary from doing a certain move to finding a particular object.
Some Relics are compatible with others too, such as the Obsidian Fang and Ebony Claw wherein it allows Rose to deal more damage when the enemy's guard is down.
Best Relics
You can only equip 3 relics, so choose them according to your playstyle. We recommend the following Relics for combat:
[1] Parry-focused playstyle
Grim Token | Parrying an attack grants Rose 5 points of mana. |
Cursed Coin | Rose deals 30% more damage for 3 seconds after parrying an enemy attack. |
These two relics rely on your ability to Parry. For any weapon, Parry is possible after you defeat Joan of Arc.
[2] Safety First!
Forsaken Ring | Rose deals an additional 25% damage while at 100% of her maximum health. |
Witch's Knot | Healing potions restore 100% of Rose's health. |
These relics will keep you safe while also dealing with greater damage. However, we recommend this best with Sword and Shield weapons.
[3] Go Berserk
Specter's Whisper | Rose inflicts extra 30% damage as long as her life is below 20%. |
Witch's Brew | Rose deals 20% more damage per empty healing potion. |
Haunting Relic | Rose's defense increases by 60% for 4 seconds after getting hit. |
This set of relics is risky but will deal greater damage. Adjust it to your liking.
[4] Keep your enemy down
Ebony Claw | Breaking an enemy's guard stuns them for 50% longer. |
Obsidian Fang | Rose deals 45% more damage for 3 seconds after breaking an enemy's guard. |
This set of relics allows Rose to deal greater damage when the enemy's guard is down. Best combined with two-handed weapons like Excalibur and Durandal.
[5] All-around useful
Vile Trinket | Rose deals 25% more damage when striking enemies from behind. |
Haunting Relic | Rose's defense increases by 60% for 4 seconds after getting hit. |
Whatever you decide, these relics are flexible. All you need to do is re-position yourself to trigger the effect of the Vile Trinket. And Haunting Relic will keep preventing you from dying.
