- For the old relic gear slot, see Relic.
Artifact Relics are special items which players can slot into their Artifacts. Distinct from the previous items of that name, Artifact Relics are Artifact-only objects obtained through completing major quest lines, dungeons and raids. Artifact Relics will have a major impact on the overall power of the Artifact, such as its basic damage and item level. The Artifact Relic system will act as a substitute for the upgrading of weapons seen in previous expansions; rather than switching to a new and more powerful weapon, the player will slot a new and more powerful Artifact Relic into their Artifact.
