Lex Prime

Never vaulted: its relics always stay in the mission drop tables.

The Lex Prime is a powerful, accurate pistol that has a low Fire Rate and Magazine Capacity. Very efficient at long range.

How To Farm Lex Prime

Optimal approach

  • Go for the Receiver first. Getting the required prime part 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 Neo C11.
  • With all four players opening Neo C11 at Intact, you have a 68.91% chance per run vs 25.33% when running solo. So opening the same relic as a squad is always better.
  • After that: Barrel from Meso N11 (25.33% per-player at Intact). Repeat farming and opening the relic until you have everything you need.

Refinement and radshares

  • Use Intact (0 Traces) on Neo C11 while going for the Receiver. For squad odds, all four players must open that relic at Intact. This increases your chances of getting the part.
  • As per the game odds, you can expect roughly 1 Intact share run for 50% odds of getting the required prime part, compared with about 3 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.
