Quick and Easy: How to use the Relic.

[u]Using default controls:[/u] [b]Hold Lb/L1[/b]= Cleanse. [b]Rb/R1[/b]= light attack. [b]Rt/R2=[/b] heavy attack. *a jump followed by Rt/R2 performes a smash attack. [b]Rb+Lb/ R1+L1[/b] = this would perform the relics super. (Shoots like a lanced nova bomb). [b]Y/triangle [/b]= Drops the relic. [u]template for other controls [/u] Cleanse = the grenade button. Primary attack = the melee button. Heavy attack = the fire button. *jump and press the fire button to perform a smash attack Relics super = the melee + grenade button (supercharge button.) Drop the relic = weapon swap [u]Tips:[/u] [u]-When teleported and fighting the enemies with the relic, keep on the move, you gotta jump, strafe, and run to be sucessful. [/u] [u]-every member of the fireteam should always have a void weapon ready to use. [/u] [u]-The relics energy takes time to charge up so use the cleanse and super only when needed.[/u] [u]-The Praetorian in the Venus portal, If your level is higher than his, sneak up on him (dont jump and glide it will startle the hobgoblins.) once in range jump and hit him with the smash, and then before he could recover i would hit him with a heavy attack. keep in mind that everyone approaches him differently. 2 or 3 smashes can take him out if you hit him, back up so you dont get hit, then hit him again. Your team should be helping you out before they focus on oracles, i found that it works best if they wait for you (the relic holder) to make the first strike. after that They can throw thier granades, then they shoot at the first oracle. if your level is lower than the praetorian. Do the same thing but you gotta proceed with caution. It works best if you let your team make the first stike on him. It should take 2 to 3 hits if your team helps. If not its gonna take 3 to 4 hits. [/u] [u]-When times vengeance is active the relic holder jumps to the middle platform and holds the Cleanse Bubble as a shield. So the other players could shoot atheon safely. When there is only 5 seconds left of times vengeance, have a defender titan deploy thier bubble shield so the team can jump off the platform without anyone dying.[/u] [u]-In the mars portal shoot at the hobgoblin that is furthest away from the group of them. Shoot for the hobgoblins head, they can't use thier shield. Making it a easier kill for the relic holder. [/u] [u]-check your armor to know your strengths. High Discipline will make the cleanse bubble charge faster . High Intellegence will make the relics super charge faster. High Strength will make the relics attacks do more damage. [/u] Hopefully this can help out. I was getting tired of reading the negativity, because someone picked up the relic and didnt know how it worked. instead of yelling at them teach them how it works so the problem never occures again. Edit: I added in that the cleanse ability needs the be held in order to cleanse your team. Edit: I added in the button used to drop the relic. Edit: I added details on what to do when times vengeance is active. Edit: i added a tip , Hobgoblin Edit: I edited a tip, times vengeance Edit: i threw in a new tip, how to easily kill the venus praetorian. [b]*Bump or gold star, so everyone knows how the relic works.*[/b] [i]With this forum post being a success, i was wondering if you guys wanted me to make other post. if so pm me which topic you would want me to write next.

    Portal Team suggestion: Once the adds are dead stay right next to the relic! If relic knows the spawns they should position themselves correct and oracle shooters should simply just need to advance with you. Disjointed positioning makes the relic's job harder! I use 3 cleanses: 1) After adds dead, first landing on stairs from spawn 2) Main landing area 3) Right in front of gate after last oracle is killed - no need to cleanse after exiting portal, do it in middle If I pick up the relic I am very vocal about my plans to cleanse. Efficient portal means a couple more seconds of DPS. Edit: Or you can just sneak by the adds like I did in my very first run.

    • Here's a good tip. While inside the portals, the relic holder can drop the relic and help destroy the oracles for a few seconds, then pick up the relic again. This really helps on hard mode where the oracles are tougher.

    • Not sure if this has been said but, Jump + smash atk (r2) then a few r2 atks will quickly take down minotaurs / praetorians. Do people ever even use the r1 light ATK? I never do and I never have any issues. Btw, I like this thread. Instead of bashing on ppl who've never used it, why not help them. Kudos, OP.

      • This is a great. Another thing to note is that if the relic holder falls off the edge the relic will follow him down and [b]not respawn[/b] where the user died. Found that out the hard way. And really more than anything relic holders priority is to keep the other Guardians safe.

        Coming from a relic noob, you might want to also add: the power runs out: I used a super inside the portal to shoot an Oracle but then when the guys needed cleansing there wasn't any power left. Good guide :)

        • Bump because some people really need to read this. Make a new thread about how you can kill supplicants without them going all suicide bomber on you. [spoiler]This is a joke, just stand on something high. People just don't get that though.[/spoiler]

            • Very helpful thank you, it's frustrating because the atheon fight can be completed so quickly if everyone knows what to do :)

              • Thank you - the relics are involved in the Templar, Portal/Gatekeeper, and Atheon fights so having a reference on how to use them will be very useful. (There are some videos and guides that don't even describe how to actually use the relic, down to the buttons involved).

              • thanks for the instructions, been to the dance several times but still haven't beaten Ath tried to use relic but i just tapped the left bumper instead of holding it down i know it must be frustrating for the old soldiers that have completed it several times, but there is nothing in the game, im aware of, that gives you training in using the relic, and yet it wipes the whole squad if not done right
