Apex Legends: How To Get Rift Relics

As Season 23 started in Apex Legends, Rift Relics started appearing across the maps. With each passing week, a new quest gets released involving the Rift Relics in some fashion - and in Split 2, we got a new weapon exclusive to the Relics.

As these quests reward Apex Packs, you might want to complete them - so this guide is here to aid you in finding the Rift Relics, what you can hope to find in them and what you should look out for when going for them. Let's dive into the rift, then, by first explaining what they are.

What Are Rift Relics

Rift Relics are Loot Ticks with exclusive loot inside them. They spawn across the map in Casual modes only, so Trios and Duos and loot found inside them isn't obtainable anywhere else in the game.

Each Rift Relic contains two items picked randomly from the list of possible drops and can be destroyed by dealing damage like a regular Loot Tick.

Possible drops include Relic Weapons and Boost Kits.

What Are Relic Weapons

Relic Weapons are "launch" versions of weapons; that is to say, they are what the weapons used to behave like when they were released.

For example, the G7 Scout used to have very little recoil and could have a Sniper Scope attached to it - so the Relic G7 comes with a 4-8x Sniper Scope attachment and similarly has reduced recoil.

The only exception to this is the EPG-1, which is a completely new weapon introduced in Split 2, and was teased a while back to be coming to Apex. It comes to us from Titanfall 2, and it is technically classified as a grenade launcher, but works more like an RPG - sending out explosive blasts of plasma at your enemies.

What Are Boost Kits

Boost Kits are passives that go in your survival slot (the slot usually reserved for Heat Shields, Evac Towers etc.).

They are incredibly strong buffs to your character, and have benefits that are far more impressive than the survival items you'd usually have.

They tend to be there for survivability more than offensive power, though there are Boost Kits that do offer damage as well.

How To Get Rift Relics

First, you'll need to enter either a Duos or Trios game. The entire Rift Relic system is considered to be an LTM (Limited Time Mode), so Ranked does not include them.

Upon the match starting, and once all the players have dropped onto the map, the Rift Relics will start spawning across it in random locations.

They will always be spaced apart, so you won't find two in the same location. Once they start spawning, a notification will be displayed, and you'll be able to see purple beacons coming from the sky.

These beacons mark the locations of Rift Relics, so be prepared for the chance to find enemies heading for them as well. Once at the Rift Relic, break it to open it up and grab the loot that's inside.

If two Boost Kits spawn from one Rift Relic, note that only one can be picked up; you'll have to choose between the two.

After the first wave, each subsequent Ring closing will have a new wave of Rift Relics spawn. Since the maps are smaller due to the Ring, the Rift Relics will spawn a lot closer to one another with each subsequent wave.

Rift Relics left over from previous rounds will explode if they are in the Ring, and upon exploding, the loot that was inside will be gone and won't drop to the floor.

All Items That Can Spawn In Rift Relics

Each new week, a new item is added to the pool of possible loot you can find in the Rift Relics. That said, this isn't the full list, as all the items haven't been announced yet - these are just the current possible items.

From the current pool, these are the Relic Weapons you can expect to find from Rift Relics, ranked from best to worst:

Weapon	Description
Relic Prowler	There's a reason the Selectfire Hopup isn't in the game anymore; it was absolutely broken on guns like the Prowler. Very little recoil, very high damage, paired with a huge magazine. This weapon rips.
Relic Alternator	Have you ever wanted to see shields disappear while you blink? Disruptor Rounds used to make the Alternator the absolute best weapon in early Apex because of this, so it rightfully earns its place here.
Relic Mastiff	Barely beating the Akimbo Mosambiques with Hammerpoint, this shotgun used to be a beast in early Apex. It was a Care Package limited item, so you can imagine its combat potential as a random drop from Rift Relics.
Relic Spitfire	With its magazine size, you can easily clear two teams of people without reloading. The damage is out of this world, and the only reason it's not higher on the list is due to it having no Hopups.
Relic Wingman	The staple weapon of Apex Legends, back from the glory days of its strength. It's just as beautiful as we remember it, and it has a Skullpiercer.
EPG-1	The new weapon is a bit situational, though having what's essentially seven magazines of grenades with you at all times means that you can clear teams that are hurdled together really easily.
Relic G7 Scout	Before the Marksman class of weapons, this was the best Sniper in the game. Very low recoil, and a large magazine; if you know how to use it, this weapon clears house.
Relic 30-30	Still a very strong Marksman weapon, it's definitely a good choice if you'd like range. Faster reloads and extra headshot damage make any marksman weep for the glory days of the 30-30.
Relic L-Star	The only weapon on this list that is actually a bit better nowadays than when it was released. The damage here is way higher, but the modern L-Star can be equipped to hold more ammo, making it more versatile.

And, these are the Boost Kits you can hope to find, also ranked from best to worst:

Boost Kit	Description
Void Reflex	Upon taking damage that would otherwise kill you, you will phase for a couple seconds so you can reposition to heal. The phase essentially works like Wraith's phase, but it's instant, and recharges after a while, saving you again. Absolutely the best Boost Kit right now.
Nessies	Adorable Nessies will chase and attack your opponents automatically. While they do reveal your position, kind of, they are amazing at distracting the enemy and dealing some bonus damage along the way. Very cute, but very powerful.
Reactive Regen	You will passively regenerate health and shields while you're out of combat. It's useful for the last few rings, if you were unlucky with finding healing items, but since Lootbins now restock, that isn't likely. Still, for that scenario, it is useful.
Squal Heal	Whenever you heal, teammates close to you will be healed as well. It isn't bad, but for this to work you really need to be close to your teammates, which isn't the case more times than it is.
Hover	It lets you hover in midair while you ADS. It doesn't have much use, since you're very rarely in the air, and you'd need to play around it - and even then, it doesn't provide much.
