Orokin elegance meets formidable stopping power in this exquisite revolver. Hits have a chance to maximize Ammo Efficiency for a few seconds.
Magnus Prime is currently vaulted. It moved into the vault on July 27, 2023. You can still acquire relics through player trading and Prime Resurgence windows, then run coordinated Radiant shares for better rare-part odds.

10 Source RelicsMagnus Prime Farming Strategy and Radshare Tips
Optimal Approach:
- Go for the Barrel first. It has the lowest item drop rate in the Magnus Prime set and will be the hardest to farm, when comparing to other parts.
- Best relic to focus: Meso M5 (currently vaulted - trade with a player for the relic or wait for Prime Resurgence access).
- In full radiant relic squad, you have a 34.39% chance per run vs 10.00% when running solo.
- After that: Blueprint from Lith H8 (16.67% per-player for Radiant).
Refinement Tips:
- Use Radiant (100 Traces) on Meso M5 while going for the Barrel; always run radshares in groups.
- At current rates, you can expect roughly 2 Radshare runs for 50% odds for the required prime part, compared with about 7 solo runs.
- Run Intact/Exceptional Relics only when farming for common or uncommon primes (these are great for ducat farming), use Void Traces for the relics with hard to farm parts. Especially Axi Relics.
