Vilens Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Hey guys, I have a ranged commando on alderaan at level 32. I was wondering if someone in more detail can please explain what relics are, their relation to datacrons, and should I have them equipped to my character already? Is there a guide for relic crafting? Additionally, I have not collected many datacrons. I was going to go back to previous planets and collect all datacrons for presence, aim, and endurance; I should be doing that right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razhah Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 That was a confusing issue for me as well but since I hated the hopping around Mario Bros crap, I didnt get alot of datacrons on my first run through to 50. This time around I have been collecting them and as many lore items I can find, just because it is something I didn't do the last time. Basically there are different combinations of the shards that combine to make relics which add more stats just like any other items. I can't remember the name of the site off top of my head but you can google it like I did and it should be pretty easy to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vilens Posted March 26, 2012 Author Share Posted March 26, 2012 Being at level is it worth going back to the planets and collecting these? and there's no guides on our forums about how and where to craft relics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArcIon Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 yes, absolutely. it's free permanent stats: http://www.swtor-spy.com/datacrons/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vilens Posted March 26, 2012 Author Share Posted March 26, 2012 I'm going to start hunting these datacrons now. Can anybody explain or point me to an explanation of relic crafting and shards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthBloodloss Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Its going to take a while to get them all. Youd probably benefit more from doing hard modes and other things such as getting full columi, doing dailies etc first. Once your item progression slows down, then it can be worth it to spend the time to get them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vilens Posted March 26, 2012 Author Share Posted March 26, 2012 http://lmgtfy.com/?q=SWTOR+matric+cube clever and original. let me be more specific. Is there a guide on these forums similar to the newcomer guide or reverse engineering guide, that explains shard and relic crafting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthBloodloss Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 If you look at the first result in the google search I provided for you, it gives you a detailed rundown of how to go about using a matric cube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oberom Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 (edited) The swtor-spy site tells where to find datacrons and matrix shards but is not good at how matrix shards become relics. Try http://swtor.wikia.com/wiki/Datacron But seriously; google is your friend - its quicker & easier than posting on forums Edited March 28, 2012 by Oberom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vilens Posted March 28, 2012 Author Share Posted March 28, 2012 I'm working through the relevant datacrons now that add aim and presence. I am also collecting shards so I can build cubes in the Jedi temple. Thanks for your recommendations guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
