Cursed gear and purification
Purify Bitterblack Novelty relics for utility items
Turn Bitterblack Novelty relics into their utility, material, or augment-scroll results through Olra’s purification service.
WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Purify Bitterblack Novelty relics for utility items
Olra at Bitterblack Isle harbor.
Before you go
- Collect a Bitterblack Novelty relic.
- Have enough RC for the displayed tier cost.
- Set the Arisen and Main Pawn vocation alignment before purification if pool selection matters.
- Make inventory space for materials, tools, or scrolls.
Farming steps
- Return to Bitterblack harbor and speak with Olra.
- Choose purification and select the Bitterblack Novelty category.
- Check the relic tier and displayed Rift Crystal charge.
- Set the Arisen and Main Pawn vocations for the pool you want before confirming.
- Purify the relic and collect the revealed novelty item.
- Inspect whether it is a material, tool, or augment scroll and use or store it accordingly.
- If you receive a scroll, review its augment and learn it through the character’s skill interface when eligible.
- Keep Novelty relics separate from combat gear relics in your inventory planning so you do not spend the wrong category’s budget.
- Store useful materials until Barroch or another valid service requires them.
Repeat, collect and use
Repeat for each Novelty relic you collect and can afford. Results vary by relic and pool, and each purification consumes RC; a specific scroll or tool is not assured.
Common mistakes
- Selecting Weapon or Gear when the goal is an augment scroll or utility item; choose Novelty explicitly.
- Expecting to choose a particular result; treat the outcome as a pool and process only when alternatives are acceptable.
- Selling a material before checking whether it is needed for enhancement; compare it with Barroch’s displayed requirements.
When to stop or switch
Stop purifying Novelties when you have the utility or augment options you need, or when the remaining RC should be reserved for equipment relics.
