The Herald of the Scourge drops an additional Invocation Cannot have inspiration Cannot recover Resolve This item is destroyed when your Sanctum ends Unmodifiable Flavour Text: “he took the new comers’ symbol and made it his own. Finally, they flocked to him. Finally, he had the power and wealth he so desired.” – Lycia, the heretic Place this item on the Relic Altar at the start of each sanctum run. Account-bound.

The 3.20.1 update introduces the concept of Unique Relics. Every time you defeat the final form of the Sanctum Boss, she’ll drop a Unique Relic which challenges you to complete an entire run of The Forbidden Sanctum at area level 80+ under special rules. If you’re able to complete such a run, you’ll be rewarded in new and special ways. However, the Unique Relic will be destroyed regardless of the outcome of your run, so if you fail to complete it, you’ll forfeit your potential rewards.

Mechanics

• Unique Relics can only be used in Forbidden Sanctum areas of level 80+.
• Unique Relics are destroyed upon completing or failing a run.

Strategies

• The player should prioritize Relics that increased maximum Resolve or reduce the impact on Resolve, as all recovery of Resolve and Inspiration are disabled.
• Fountains and Afflicted Fountains provide no benefits.

Item acquisition

The Gilded Chalice has restrictions on where or how it can drop. It cannot be chanced.

Drops from Lycia, Herald of the Scourge in the Forbidden Sanctum.
