Relic weapons

Relic weapons are unique post-Moon Lord weapons and arguably the best weapons in the mod. They are direct and massive upgrades to their respective previous weapon. All of these require an Ascension Tablet. They are required to obtain the Dread Obelisk and break the shield of Nihilus.

There are 4 different types of relic weapons: Pursuit, Horde, Territory and Utility. Pursuit-type weapons specialize in single target combat, Horde weapons are useful for crowd control, Territory weapons have attacks which affect a large area, and Utility weapons don't have particularly high damage but distributes various effects to the player or enemy.
