Glaive Prime Relic Sources

The hardest part to farm currently is Blade ×2. It is Uncommon in all 3 of its relics, so any of them is an equal source: 20.00% per player at Radiant, or 59.04% when four players open the same relic. It currently sells for 15p each on warframe.market.

Every relic is vaulted and none is in the current Varzia rotation, so trade for them or check your inventory.

How To Farm Glaive Prime

Optimal approach

  • Go for the Blade first. Getting all 2 required copies takes the most runs at the given refinement making it the hardest to farm. Even then the part is not guaranteed (Pray to RNGesus!).
  • Best Relic to focus on is any of Axi E1, Axi L1 or Meso B10 (This Prime is currently vaulted: Trade with a player for the relics or wait for Prime Resurgence Rotation).
  • With all four players opening the same relic at Radiant, you have a 59.04% chance per run vs 20.00% when running solo. So opening the same relic as a squad is always better.
  • After that: Blueprint from any of Lith G1, Lith G2 or Neo G6 (10.00% per-player at Radiant). Repeat farming and opening the relic until you have everything you need.

Refinement and radshares

  • Use Radiant (100 Traces) on any of Axi E1, Axi L1 or Meso B10 while going for the Blade. For squad odds, all four players must open the same relic at Radiant. This increases your chances of getting the part.
  • As per the game odds, you can expect roughly 3 Radshare runs for 50% odds of getting all 2 required copies, compared with about 9 solo runs.
  • Keep relics Intact for Common rewards. Radiant gives the highest chance for Uncommon and Rare rewards; use the refinement listed for each part in the farming plan. Never open Axi relics for rare parts solo, it's not worth it.
