Warframe Relics: Run Them With a Plan
Warframe relics waste time when you run unupgraded junk and leave at 5 traces. Intact is for when you are broke, not forever.
Upgrade when you have traces
Radiant for the part you actually want. Intact forever is a lottery you already lost. Warframe is a farm game with math.
Do not radiant a relic for a common you already have. That is a flex with extra steps.
Pick the fissure that matches the era
Lith in a long survival is fine. A 2-minute capture is fine too if you need volume. Mix based on time, not vibe.
Public radshares exist. Use them when you need a specific rare. Solo intact is slower.
Extract when the squad is done
If three people want to leave, leave. Host migrations waste more time than one extra rotation.
Keep a relic inventory that matches what you will run this week. 50 random relics is stash tax.
