Many new players (and even experienced ones) often struggle with choosing the right relics for their crits, especially when trying to compete. Since relics can make such a difference ingame, it’s important for players to have a solid starting point.

  1. The Problem:
    Relic selection is confusing, because there is so many choices and new players mostly will not know how to relic it the best and will waste plats on wrong relics.

  2. The Solution:
    Enhance the Miscripedia by adding a "Recommended Relics" section on each Miscrit’s page.

This section would show:

  • 1.The most commonly used relics for that Miscrit in Plat Arena.

  • 2.A short description explaining the build focus (tank, sniper, bruiser).

(Optional) An example of the WR team it was used in for context.

  1. PROs:
  • 1.Guides players toward effective builds faster.
  • 2.Reduces confusion and experimentation costs.
  • 3.Helps newer players understand how top teams and crits are build.
  • 4.Keeps the community more competitive and engaged.

  1. CONs:
    1. Who decides what the most commonly used relics are? Usage data? How are accurate descriptions created if the most common relics can shift dynamically?
    1. Does not consider how relics can change with stats (bonuses or rating). What if I have a red speed Dark Flutterpat, but it recommends me relics for a sniper build? If we are to show multiple builds for Miscrits that are viable with multiple, how is that determined? Where does it stop?
    1. What happens when balance changes, meta changes or new relics shift a Miscrit's role or the relics they may use? Do we now have to adjust everything in Miscripedia to compensate?
    1. Makes relics seem more streamlined than they actually are. New players will see these options and assume this is what they should go with, when that may not be the best solution for them.
    1. Creates less engagement with the community. Players now can just press a button and get a generic build recommended to them instead of seeking advice and interacting with the community, where they can learn more about what they're actually building for.

  1. The recommended relics don’t need to be exactly statistical. The section could be made or confirmed by experienced players/balance team or based on WR teams, updated from time to time to reflect current trends. It’s not meant to be an exact accurate,just a helpful reference point for new players. Even a basic list is better than no guidance at all.
  2. That’s a fair concern, and one solution is to list multiple viable builds when relevant, especially for versions crits. A “Build A – Tank” and “Build B – Sniper” format would help players understand the possibilities, instead of assuming there’s only one correct way. It actually encourages deeper learning by showing that multiple builds of relics exist.
  3. Just like the rest of the site, the Miscripedia can be updated over time. Balance and meta shifts happen in every game, and having to adjust pages is part of keeping a resource current. It’s no different than updating stats or skill eff, it’s about helping players stay informed as the game evolves.
  4. The section can include a short disclaimer making it clear that these are recommendations, not rules. Something like: “These are commonly used relics for this Miscrit in Plat Arena. Your choice may vary depending on stats and strategy.” The goal is not to limit creativity but to give players a foundation to an idea from.
  5. Actually, it might do the opposite. Once a player sees a relic suggestion and tries it out, they’re more likely to come back and ask, “Why does this relic work well?” or “Is there a better setup for my crit?” This can make them more curious and make deeper discussions in the channels. Good guidance often leads to more engagement, not less.

while PVP build guides are good, I personally don't think the official miscripedia in-game or website is the right place for it. If people want to make a good PVP build, they will probably search online for advice anyway, having a good chance to join the discord. Though I do think it would be cool to add a relics page to the official site
