Restored Relic build
Hey everyone! Just wondering whats the best way to build RR, there is a serious Fire buff and fire options for it, also core gives you 3 or even 4 slots to element damage, so is it worth building it into Fire damage or better go Frost?

I have seen 2 variations.

4x elemental damage 1x fire rate.



But fire rate scales exponentially so
for max DPS:

3x fire rate
2x elemental damage mods


Fire elemental is, of course, best since you get a native bonus to fire damage.
However.

Legion of Darkness are weak to chill

Legion of Immortality are weak to toxic

Order of Truth are weak to electric

The damage scaling to a faction weakness will outperform just stacking fire.
(although maybe they add a new enemy faction weak to fire soon? )



In Gley's hands you have infinite ammo. There is also that funky driveshaft mod for even more fire rate. (you can cap out at 90% and not need perfect 20% rolls on all the fire rate cores)
I would suggest wearing sunglasses and sunscreen though.

Enzo can regenerate ammo.
Not sure if his ammo regen can keep up with that rate of fire though.
And still has to reload.

If you want to farm purge level 30, definitely go for chill damage

Looks like this is my next weapon to build up
Been avoiding it due to the way explosion overwhelm the screen
But with the new filter maybe worth a shot

So boosting fire is a good way to use it, not a fan of “broken” builds and boosting all fire seems a good thing. Yeah it’s not for 30 VEP because they are strong to fire, but seems legit for others. Also new desc will be fire based, so I guess I’ll stick to fire damage, it’s feels more fun.

It was really interesting before the recent patch because you could build it as a status weapon (the only one in the game) to delete whole crowds with one shot or as an opener to soften up elites (it could easily oneshot elites with DoTs up to stage 27, some on 28 too).

Now it's just yet another Gley spam weapon, and there's nothing unique or interesting about it. Everything is a Gley spam weapon now, and everything is built in the same way. Yay.

Edit: to clarify I mean last week's patch where they "buffed" (broke) it. Could have been an actual buff if the status mechanics in the game weren't broken AF and we didn't get band-aid solutions like what they did with Freyna.

IDK, maybe the status build I literally just described?

in a group of 4 when i play enzo in p30 i use rr and do 650 mil on avg with fire build (atk, crit dmg, 2x fire, fire rate), and avg time of 4:20. so i would say its fine build for general use

3 x fire rate + 2 x fire elemental for Gley
Quad fire + Fire rate for everyone else.

its depend which stage is you wanan stay and farm ..

each element is cost alot. like entire week for build it.. include 5 of this gun .
and more than a dozen @ tier 9 - 10 ..

there is RNG wall and its crappy . You must focus .. to which stage.. couz

damage on this is complete different.. in each polar.
