Relics are passive buffs that permanently improve your tower's abilities. Once you have earned one, it works on its own in the background — there is nothing to equip or activate.
Description
Relics are passive buffs to increase tower abilities. They sit alongside your other upgrades as a permanent boost, applying to every run without any input from you.
Unlock
You can browse relic unlocks in the Themes Menu. There are six main ways to earn them: reaching wave 4500 milestones, placing in tournaments, completing events and buying from the event store, the guild store, rewards for years of gameplay, and a gift commemorating the game's 5th Anniversary. Note that relics bought from the event store are only available when that event is re-run, so if you miss one you will need to wait for it to come back.
Using Relics
Relics are fully passive — once unlocked, their effects apply automatically with no setup required. When stacking, bonuses from similar relics add together, while they multiply against other types of bonuses. The table below lists each relic and its effect.
