In Arise Crossover, relics are crucial items that can dramatically boost your team’s performance. These relics provide powerful passive buffs such as increased shadow damage, weapon damage, loot drop chances, and rank-up success rate. Knowing how to collect them and where they drop is essential for progressing efficiently, especially as you reach more challenging dungeons and need optimized gear.
This guide breaks down all relic types, their effects, and exact dungeon locations, helping you farm smarter and strengthen your characters faster.
What Are Relics in Arise Crossover?
Relics are equippable passive boosts tied to specific gameplay mechanics. Each relic comes with a defined effect—some increase damage, others improve loot drops, and a few enhance your chance to upgrade shadows or weapons. These relics can be dropped from Island Dungeons, which appear every 15 minutes across various locations.
Relics are ranked from A to SS, with SS-grade relics offering up to +120% effect strength. While relic drops are not guaranteed, completing higher-ranked dungeons and defeating dungeon bosses increases your chances.
