Confused about how to use Weapon and Armor Relics in Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon? Here’s a no-fuss, beginner-friendly guide to upgrading your gear the right way.
The Real Way to Use Relics in Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon
So, you’ve stumbled across a few shiny Relics in Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon, and you’re wondering what the heck you’re supposed to do with them. You’re not alone—plenty of new players miss this part entirely because, let’s be honest, the game doesn’t exactly spell it out for you.
Let’s fix that.
What Even Are Relics?
Weapon and Armor Relics are basically magical upgrades for your gear. Think of them like power-ups that make your sword hit harder or your armor tougher.
Sounds awesome, right? The catch is, the game doesn’t tell you where to use them or how they work.
Where Do You Use Them?
You’ll need a Grindstone, which is the go-to station for all things crafting, upgrading, and yes—attaching Relics. You can find one at Osbryht’s Blacksmith shop in Shadow of the Horn Keep.
Step-by-Step: Attaching a Relic
- Go to the Grindstone – You’ll usually find it in major hubs like Shadow of the Horn.
2. Choose “Attach Relic” – This option pops up once you interact with the Grindstone.
3. Pick the gear you want to upgrade – Weapon or armor, your call.
4. No Relic Slot? No problem. – Hit the “+” icon to add a slot. It’ll cost you 500 gold, so maybe don’t do it for every rusty dagger you pick up.
Select the Relic you want to use – If your item already has a slot, just click and drop in your chosen Relic.
Boom—your gear’s now juiced up and ready to wreck some baddies.
A Few Things to Keep in Mind
- Not all gear can hold Relics. Only helmets, cuirasses, greaves, gauntlets, boots, and capes for armor—and every weapon type, including bows.
- Rings, amulets, and spells? Nope, they’re out.
- You can add up to two slots per item, but that’s another 500 gold each.
So… Where Do You Actually Find Relics?
Good question! These things aren’t exactly lying around in the open. You can:
- Loot them from bosses and powerful enemies
- Score them from chests or quest rewards
- Check bounty boards, especially the one in Shadow of the Horn, for boss hunts that pay off with rare loot
- Dig up buried treasure with a shovel—Relics love to hide underground
And hey, don’t forget: Relics have weight, so unless you want to walk around like a turtle, drop them off in your stash. Thankfully, anything in your stash is accessible from the Grindstone, so no need to lug them around.
That’s it! Now you’re officially not one of the players who goes through the whole game never using Relics. Go forth, enhance that gear, and show those bandits who’s boss.
