Relics
Complete Moonlighter 2 relic price list by biome and rarity — perfect prices, effects, rarity tiers and the best relics to sell for maximum profit.
Introduction
Relics are the heart of the Moonlighter 2 economy. Every dungeon run is really a relic run — you dive into the dimensions, fight enemies, open chests and fill your backpack with ancient artifacts that you then sell in your Tresna shop. Each relic has a rarity tier (Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, Legendary) and an effect that can trigger while it sits in your backpack, from bonus damage elements like Burn and Shock to utility effects that restore health or convert materials. Selling them at the right price is what funds your town upgrades, better weapons and shop perks. This page collects verified price data, biome drop locations and effect breakdowns so you can plan which relics to hunt, which to keep for synergy builds and which to flip for maximum gold.

Core Mechanics
Relic mechanics in Moonlighter 2 go beyond simple stat boosts — placement in your backpack matters. Corner relics trigger when placed at the four corners of the bag, pointed relics trigger when their arrow touches another relic, and ongoing relics give passive effects while carried. Elemental effects like Burn, Shock, Overcharge, Petrify and Absorb are tied to specific biomes and relic families, and they interact with enemy weaknesses. Understanding these synergies is what separates a casual seller from a master merchant: the right relic combination can turn a mediocre run into a legendary haul, while a badly managed bag forces you to leave valuable drops behind.
Advantages
Mastering relics pays off in every part of Moonlighter 2. In the shop, relic knowledge directly translates to profit — you know which rarity sells for what, when to hold a relic for its effect and when to flip it for gold. In the dungeon, the right relic effects give you combat advantages: Burn melts tanky enemies, Shock stuns packs and Petrify sets up free hits. In town, the gold from well-priced relics funds your weapon upgrades, shop perks and backpack expansions. Because relic prices are stable within a patch cycle, learning the perfect price for each common and rare relic type gives you a repeatable income source every run. This page turns that knowledge into a searchable reference.
Challenges
Relic data is the most volatile information in the community. Perfect prices shift between patches, and the Early Access era saw several rebalances of relic effects and rarity distributions — the Greed & Glory update changed part of the shop economy, so older price lists can be wrong. Relic effects also depend heavily on your backpack setup: a legendary relic with the wrong placement or the wrong supporting relics can underperform a well-synergized common set. Finally, relic drops are biome-specific and sometimes elite-gated, so farming a specific legendary can take many runs. Always verify prices against the current patch and treat community guides — including this wiki — as reference points, not absolute truth.

Quick Tips
Learn the perfect price for every common relic you encounter often — a stable reference list makes every run more profitable with almost no extra effort. Common relics like Sand Fruit sell repeatedly, so knowing their price pays off constantly. Track the perfect price of every relic you sell and keep a running mental list — after a few sessions you will price most common relics instantly without testing.
Plan your backpack layout before deep floors: corners for corner relics, arrows touching for pointed relics, and a few open slots for emergency high-value pickups. A well-planned bag keeps synergies active without blocking legendary drops. Place your synergy relics before entering the final floors of a run, then rearrange only when a better drop changes your plan, so the effects stay active at the moment you need them most.
Elite enemies and treasure rooms are your best legendary sources — always clear them when you are hunting premium relic drops. Skip them only when your health is too low to risk the fight. Elite enemies on the deepest floors drop the best legendary relics, but they also hit hardest — bring a high-DPS weapon and full health before hunting them.
Check the updates page after every patch before following an old price list — relic prices and effects were rebalanced during Early Access and can change again in 1.0 hotfixes. Current data is always the safest reference. Prices shift between patches, so compare community lists with your own stamp results after every update before trusting old data for a big sale.
