How To Capture Relics In Age of Empires 4

Capturing relics in Age of Empires 4 is a crucial strategy for generating passive income and gaining an economic advantage over your opponents. This guide will walk you through the essential steps needed to successfully capture and secure relics in your religious landmark.

Step 1: Reach Castle Age and Build a Religious Landmark

The first step in capturing relics is to advance to the Castle Age (H3). Once you’ve reached this age, you’ll need to construct a religious landmark. For the early rush strategy, the Abbey of the Trinity is the recommended choice for your faction.

Step 2: Train a Warrior Monk or Religious Unit

After building your religious landmark, you’ll need to train a religious unit to capture the relics. The standard unit for this is a Warrior Monk, though the specific religious unit available to you will depend on your chosen faction.

Step 3: Locate and Capture a Relic

Once you have your Warrior Monk or other religious unit ready, navigate to a relic location on the map. Simply move your religious unit to the relic and initiate the capture. Your unit will automatically begin the capture process.

Step 4: Transport the Relic to Your Religious Landmark

After successfully capturing the relic, you need to place it inside your religious landmark to activate its benefits. Direct your Warrior Monk to return to your Abbey of the Trinity or whichever religious landmark you’ve constructed.

Enjoy the Passive Gold Income

Once your relic is safely stored in your religious landmark, it will generate passive gold income for your civilization. This steady economic boost will help you advance your economy and maintain a competitive edge throughout the game.

Summary

Capturing relics in Age of Empires 4 is straightforward: advance to Castle Age, build a religious landmark like the Abbey of the Trinity, train a Warrior Monk, capture a relic, and transport it back to your landmark. Once secured, your relic will provide valuable passive gold income to support your civilization’s growth and military expansion.
