Relic Guide

Gor1lla · 02-07-2012, 10:10 AM

Hey guys,
by following this guide you will get these two achievements:

Mmmm Essence! 10 Pick up 5 Relics in the single player campaign

Relic Hunter 50 Find all 29 Relics in the single player campaign

I try to keep this spoiler free, but there will probably be some minor spoiler

Level names with numbers are indicating different parts of the level. If you hit a loading screen, another part of the level will begin.

Really nice man!

LeMansFahrer · 02-07-2012, 08:42 PM

Great Guide, good work. Makes it much easier finding the ones that I missed on my first playthrough.
Thank You

brilliant guide, thank you very much!

If anyone needs a video, there was a video posted on ps3trophies.

^ props for the video

chach7171 · 02-10-2012, 04:38 AM

Good guide it should be noted that it seems like you have to advance to an autosave spot for the collectible to count. I've grabbed relic 12 twice and after backing out it lists it as unfound same with number 29. I'm guessing because these are the only two in which I didnt find during normal playing. Kinda lame if needing a game save or to close the chapter out just for collectibles...

Nevander · 02-10-2012, 04:43 AM

How does the Relic finder thing work with the LE? Would it be good enough to not have to use a guide? Haven't began playing yet.

Brothaa · 02-10-2012, 05:17 AM

nice guide thanks.........

It works if you're close to it, otherwise, it doesn't.I've missed 3 on my first run through with it.

It's kind of erratic. The mission where you go to the pool hall, the Relic Indicator showed up like three rooms before the relic but then on the brothel level I had to be almost standing next to it for the cross to show up.

Still very useful I think, this is honestly the best preorder DLC I've seen in FOREVER.

Xerany · 02-10-2012, 11:33 AM

Thanks for this! This will certainly come in handy when I get the game!

The biggest problem I had with it was the second relic in the graveyard in Saying Goodbye. Would have never found it if I didn't read this guide. The relic perk didn't pick it up at all.

DarkJake · 02-12-2012, 08:48 PM

Thanks for the guide.

I thoughts the free comics were better. Read them all on my iPhone yesterday.

Virgin · 02-13-2012, 12:37 PM

Very easy to follow, thanks (y)

B3nJam1n89 · 02-13-2012, 05:01 PM

Thanks for the guide, really helped

romanzad · 02-13-2012, 10:39 PM

perfect guide, made this an easy 50g

olcsi2 · 02-14-2012, 03:21 PM

Just an innocent comment. You do not have to keep it spoiler free, spoilers are not just OK here, they are WELCOME (according to the guide to writing guides as well, if I remeber correctly), needed of course only if they help to reach the original goal of describing how to find a collectible, unlock an achievement.

IRA GUNNER AFC · 02-16-2012, 04:40 AM

Great guide, helped alot

anthonyd46 · 02-17-2012, 01:56 AM

The guide is good overall but i found it a bit hard to progress. I would suggest writing in the chapters with no collects as well so we know. For example i would just totally assume the next chapter woudl be the one on your list and all of a sudden it is some other chapter not even listed. So for example I would put like "On The Hunt" No collectibles etc.

Gor1lla · 02-17-2012, 04:32 PM

Glad to hear that most people like the guide

@anthony: Good idea, i will add the other level names

SIMPLYMIDGET · 02-18-2012, 10:26 PM

Relic Hunter - 50G

There is also a skill in the skill tree you can unlock that grants you this ability. Relics show up as glowing white, and can be seen through walls.

WoodsMonk · 02-19-2012, 12:41 PM

I've missed 2 relics, How will I get them? Can you reload a chapter? Or should I just get them on my New Game+ walkthrough?

Gor1lla · 02-19-2012, 01:30 PM

You can get them during your NG+ playthrough or select "Chapter select" after beginning NG+
