Best/Favorite relic and why?

[Weizen1988]

pretty much title. Currently im pretty fond of the omnicodex for free pops for my xenophile pacifist corporation, and the prophets head for free ships and getting free planets from the holy fallen empire.

Zarqlan's Head for now, early game that FE fleet wrecks competitor empires, and being able to settle their holy world is amazing if you're close enough.

Yeah, i started basically next to them and found that artifact after a while, but it was in the last dig site in the galaxy. I guess one artifact makes every planet a gaia planet, which is also pretty amazing.

The Grand Herald popped out right as my systems were being invaded :D The cube for 40% ship dmg is pretty amazing too

Not exactly a relic but I havent played enough to get one but I did get a decision I can use on my planets from a dig site that only cost 200 energy to use(unlimited uses), gives +10% growth and only like -10 stability and -5 happiness on the planet while its in use and lasts 120 months I think.

Its a really nice find :)

the only relics The Foundation has found so far are the reality perforator (powerful temporary combat modifier, lowers amenities use), the rubricator (a replicator that makes minor artifacts, +10 unity), omnicodex (creates extinct alien species on command, free gene point), miniature galaxy (free 50% progress on a random tech, +5% research speed), the surveyor (increased sensor range, scan own planets for more resources(im not sure what this does? is it adding planet modifiers or just like, adding a +1 mineral deposit somewhere?)), zarqy's head, (free fleet of FE ships, colonize holy worlds).

Zarqlans head was pretty fun to get. I was playing as a fanatic materialist and it ended up boosting my standings with the spirtualist FE so much they started to give me gifts lol. Later on I ended up turning all my pops into synths and they still like me. 10/10 best way to make a FE like you

Zarqlans is good, as well as the Omnicodex. But my personal choice is the Last baol, but in combination with the Horizon Signal event chain. Follow that and your home-system gains something like 7 or 8 tomb worlds. Which you can then colonize one after another and then activate the Baol relic to get an instant Gaia planet with no terraforming cost and 4 extra Baol pops. granted, a 3600 day inbetween period, but still, home system with 8 new Gaia planets, what's not to love?

Baol Precursor for every organic Empire that does not want to become robots. Free instant Gia planets with extra slaves is just too good.

Robot Empires rather celebrate the Cybrex precursor for obvious reasons.

Next in line are probably Zarqlan for very good ships early on or the Grand Herald . But I have not seen the Grand Herald since he got "balanced", so not sure if that early Titan still is such a huge boost to your fleetstrength.

With the rubricator, being able to keep generating minor artifacts, and then using the "spend 5 minor artifacts to research random tech", I've gotten the ability to build some unique buildings (only 1 of each - once you build it, you can't make another), but one of them added 200 Energy to my total repeating number of energy at that time. It was an awesome bonus.

The isolated Contingency Core bc +100% Robot build speed is ludicrous
