Exclusive Relics/Relic Power Boost

Credits to sanglass#4944 at the Rise of Eros Discord for the discovery & documentation of the Relic Power Boost.

Exclusive Relics are basically level 30 R Relics. These Relics give a huge power boost that SR & SSR Relics cannot easily match, despite their better initial base stats.

As you can see, the SR Relic has superior base stats to the R Relic. However, the EXP needed to level up the SR Relic is 10x the EXP needed for the R Relic.

This is a R Relic’s stats at level 30.

The boost is massive – this translates to approximately 2x HP, ATK & DEF for a 0 Star, level 20 Persona.

Why not SR/SSR Relics?

I know what you’re thinking, a SR/SSR Relic should be a better investment. Normally that would be true, except that the resources required are exponentially & disproportionately higher.

Because the only way to get more Relics is via the Summons, it is much harder to obtain them in the quantities needed to level up a Relic.

In addition, Relics power up exponentially, meaning you really only see the results at level 25+.

I’ve not yet seen anyone with a level 30 SR/SSR Relic, due to the ridiculous amount of Relics needed to mimic a fraction of a R Relic’s power, not to mention the need for dupes.

SSR Relic stats at Level 15. With the resources needed to get this to level 15, you could get 5 R Relics to Level 30.

Before you get carried away, there are a few things to take note of

  1. Focus on R Relics first. A fully upgraded R Relic takes the same amount of resources as a level 7 SR Relic.
  2. The major limiting factor here is getting at least 5 dupes, as the Relic Boost is exponential. You will only start to see results after level 24.
  3. Do not pick a Fire Relic first, unless you have no choice – The starting Chapters have a lot of Water-element enemies.
  4. Like Gear, upgraded Relics can also be used later on to upgrade other Relics.
  5. The ‘best’ Relic is any Relic that you have 5 dupes of. This will be the only time I will be polite about this.
  6. The Legend Himself, Sandglass#4944, has suggested leaving the Relics at Level 29. This helps to optimise your limited resources since you’re going to need to make the most of the resources you have available.
  7. Using SR Relics to upgrade R Relics might not be such a bad idea, but check in with the Meta Analysis section before you do so.
  8. Remember that the rest of your party will also need Relics for the Elemental advantage & stat boost.
