After the The Old Blood update arrived, players received new content tied to the Kuva Lich system, but this also introduced farming paths for key items you’ll need to advance.
Requiem Mods are required to defeat or convert Kuva Liches and Sisters of Parvos, making farming them a necessary task for any Tenno facing these enemies.
Riven Slivers are fragments used to craft Riven Mods, while Exilus Weapon Adapter Blueprints let you unlock additional tool slots for your weapons, increasing customization options.
Obtaining Requiem Relics (After The Shadowgrapher Update)
Requiem Relics are unique Void Relics that reward Requiem Mods, Kuva, Riven Slivers, and rare Exilus Weapon Adapter Blueprints when opened.
With the Shadowgrapher update, the old Requiem I–IV relics were removed and replaced by the Requiem Eterna Relic, which now contains all Requiem Mods.
Requiem Eterna Relics are obtained from Kuva Siphon missions as a chance reward on completion and from Kuva Flood missions as a guaranteed reward.
They can also drop at a low chance from Kuva Thralls and Sister Hounds, providing an additional but unreliable source outside scheduled Siphon and Flood missions.
Legacy Requiem I–IV relics can still be purchased from Palladino at Iron Wake using Riven Slivers, but they no longer drop naturally in missions.
Opening Requiem Relics
Once you have Requiem Relics, they must be opened in Requiem Fissure missions, which appear at the bottom of the Void Fissure list on your Star Chart.
Choose the Requiem Relic you want to open and enter the mission with your squad, then collect at least 10 Reactants during the mission so you can choose a reward at the end.
After the rotation ends and you have your 10 Reactant, the mission will pause and display the rewards — you can then select your Requiem Relic drop or, if you’re in a squad, take a teammate’s reward instead if needed.
Requiem Relic Drops
Every Requiem Relic can drop the following common rewards: Ayatan Amber Star, 1,200 Kuva, or a Riven Sliver fragment.
Uncommon drops from the relics consist of Requiem Mods, which are needed for killing or converting Kuva Liches and Sisters of Parvos.
Rare rewards from Requiem Relics are Exilus Weapon Adapter Blueprints, letting you unlock Exilus mod slots on weapons once built and fused.
Common Reward Tables
Each of the four Requiem Relic types (I, II, III, and IV) contains two possible Requiem Mods, Kuva, Riven Slivers, Ayatan Stars, and a rare Exilus Weapon Adapter Blueprint.
For instance, Requiem I relics may drop Xata or Lohk as uncommon Requiem Mods, with an Exilus Adapter Blueprint as the rare drop.
This general pattern repeats across all relic types, with two Requiem Mods listed per relic and a small chance for the adapter blueprint.
The following are the uncommon rewards for Requiem Relics:
- Requiem I – Lohk or Xata
- Requiem II – Jahu or Vome
- Requiem III – Fass or Ris
- Requiem IV – Khra or Netra
Farming Tips
Kuva Siphons and Kuva Floods are the most reliable sources of Requiem Relics, so focus on completing these missions frequently to maximize your rewards.
Keep an eye out for Thralls and Sisters of Parvos’ hounds, as they have a small chance to drop Requiem Relics, giving you a secondary farming opportunity.
Remember that Requiem Mods have three charges and are only consumed upon defeating or converting a Lich or Sister, while rare Exilus Weapon Adapter Blueprints can also be obtained from select syndicates.
Verdict
Farming Requiem Relics remains the main way to get Requiem Mods, Riven Slivers, and Exilus Weapon Adapter Blueprints when preparing to take on Kuva Liches or Sisters of Parvos.
Since Requiem Mods unlock Lich kills and Slivers lead to more Rivens, this system is essential for endgame progression and customization.
Although RNG plays a significant role in drops, the more Kuva missions you complete, the higher your chances of getting the items you need without spending Platinum for trades.
