Relic

Eridian Relic
An elemental relic, boosting shock damage.
Manufacturer:	Eridian
Type:	Relic
Game:	Borderlands 2

A Relic is an item that passively boosts one or more aspects of a character. Though the abilities of relics are extremely varied, they are generally powerful bonuses to one or more related statistics, many of which can be increased by no other means. A relic is different from an Artifact in that its use does not augment the user's Action Skill, is not restricted by class and may or may not be tied to a specific element. Relics appear only in Borderlands 2. All relics are made by Eridians.

Common Relics

• Vitality Relic - Boosts the character's maximum health.
• Allegiance Relic - Boosts a specific manufacturer's effects (reducing recoil, increasing damage, accuracy, reload speed, etc.). Can have a maximum of two effects simultaneously; both are applied to the same manufacturer.
• Stockpile Relic - Boosts the munitions a character can carry of a specific class of weapons. Can also increase the maximum number of grenades a character can carry. Maximum of three can be increased simultaneously.
• Protection Relic - Boosts shield capacity and/or recharge rate.
• Aggression Relic - Increases weapon damage or fire rate with a specific weapon type (pistols, sniper rifles, etc.).
• Resistance Relic - Boosts resistances to one or several elemental or non-elemental damage types. Maximum of four resistances may be present.

  • Note: Override Cooldown Rate only affects Melee Override Skills with cooldown timers which are Maya's Scorn, Salvador's Fistful of Hurt, and Krieg's Hellfire Halitosis. Zer0's Execute and Gaige's With Claws are unaffected because they both have no cooldown.
