Optimal Approach:

- You can use recruitment chat to find "Radiant Share" groups.
Refinement Tips:
- Always refine relics to Radiant for the Rare items.
- Exceptional is a good balance for Uncommon (Silver) items.
- Save Void Traces by keeping relics Intact for Common items. Use the drop percentages to decide what to do.
