What are relics in Honkai: Star Rail?
Players first learn of relics upon entering the Great Mine for the first time. The Relic system is unlocked as part of the mission “Ones Fallen Into The Abyss”. Players must be Trailblazer Level 14 before taking that mission.
Relics are essentially clothing items that provide buffs. Their design is that of a hat, gloves, boots and belt.
Relics are powerful items that can be equipped to player characters to provide buffs to a number of different stats. Players can buff HP, Speed, Attack and Defense all with the use of Relics.

How do you get relics in Honkai: Star Rail?
In lore, these Relics are in two different categories. There are Cavern Relics and Planar Relics. Here are the different ways that players can find Relics:
These Relic types are dependent on where the player finds them. If you find a relic in the overworld, as part of the questline or general exploration, it will be a Cavern Relic.
Planar Relics are in the Simulated Universe, where players can grind out repeated missions to try and improve their rewards. Planar Relics and the Simulated Universe missions that you can use to farm them, are available after the mission “In the Sweltering Morning Sun”.

Players must clear waves of challenges in different levels in the Simulated Universe to get themselves the rewards. These rewards vary and will not always include Relics.
A good way to farm Relics is to complete the Cavern of Corrosion missions in the Interastral Guide section of the Honkai menus. Players have to clear waves of enemies to secure themselves a whole bunch of rewards.
The more of these that you complete, the more chance you have of getting the best Relics.
