Relics

Relics are individual collectible items made in Archeotech from Xenogen and Artifacts. Each has a rarity tier, quality, production bonus and identifying hash. They belong to your player collection; they are not the numeric Artifacts balance and are not direct Void Boss Combat drops.

Where relics come from

You can get relics in three ways:

Create them in Archeotech from Xenogen and Artifacts, as described below.
Find them on Excursions. Only your first 3 successful excursions in any 24 hours (full excursions) can roll for a relic: a 10% chance per full excursion, and 1% of those finds are Uncommon, the rest Common.
Dig them up with the Ancient dig site option of a planet event: a 20% chance, 85% Common and 15% Uncommon.

Found relics need Archeotech researched and a free collection slot, and arrive at no cost. Void Boss Combat does not drop relics directly.

Unlock and create

Complete Archeotech level 1 in Biolab to unlock creation and fusion. Its first level costs 1,000 VXP, 100 Xenogen and 160 Artifacts before later-level scaling. The collection holds 20 items plus 5 per completed Archeotech level, including installed relics. Creation requires enough free slots and both currencies; a batch pays the per-item cost for each item.

Direct creation offers Common, Uncommon and Rare. Costs per relic are:

Tier	Xenogen	Artifacts	Quality range
Common	50	10	0–3%
Uncommon	2,500	500	3–10%
Rare	125,000	25,000	10–25%

The chosen tier is the normal result, with a 0.1% chance of promotion by one tier. Quality is randomly generated within the result tier's range and displayed to two decimal places. Selecting a tier does not guarantee its maximum quality. A Rare creation can therefore exceptionally produce Epic, despite the UI help saying Epic and higher require fusion.

Combine and progress

Select two different, uninstalled relics of the same tier and combine them. Both inputs are consumed and one result is created. There is a 1% chance to advance one rarity tier; otherwise the result stays in the input tier. Its quality is rolled from the stronger input's quality upward within the result tier, so a same-tier result can improve quality without promotion. Combining does not deduct an additional Xenogen or Artifacts fee in the current service.

Rarity order and quality ranges are Common 0–3%, Uncommon 3–10%, Rare 10–25%, Epic 25–50%, Mythic 50–75% and Legendary 75–100%. Legendary does not promote further. Auto-combine pairs the available, uninstalled relics of the selected tier in one pass, leaving an odd item unpaired; it does not automatically repeat through newly generated tiers. Read the selected inputs before consuming them.

Install and manage

Archeotech offers installation on an owned, colonized non-home colony. One relic can be assigned to a planet at a time and one relic cannot be installed on two planets. Replacing the selection returns the previous relic to the available collection rather than destroying it. The Planet Production assignment action can also select or remove a relic; its current ownership check does not apply Archeotech's non-home restriction, so the two entry points are inconsistent.

The stored relic bonus equals its quality, capped at 100%. In the current production calculation it adds percentage points to the planet-specific bonus for the matching assigned resource, alongside Planet Resource Lab bonuses. It does not boost every mine at once. A planet without a matching resource assignment does not receive this bonus through that path; Thermal Borehole production also bypasses it. See Planets for resource assignment and other production limits.

Uninstalled relics can be permanently deleted to free collection space. Deletion gives no currency refund or salvage reward. Installed items must first be removed before fusion or deletion. There is no implemented player trade or ship-equipment workflow for these items in the inspected interfaces.
