    Timeworn Artifact Alternate solution

    As a Avid Relic Grinder Having all ARR, HW, STB, and now EW relics; I would like to find a way for the community to get an answer on finding an alternate way to get timeworn artifacts. The two current ways to get them is either Running Delubrum Reginae for three per run or POTD for a low chance. Can we find another way to gain them? Having to set up Dr parties in outside tools to be able to gain any is sad in the least. For a game that is proud to be able to be played casual and high tier is great, I have been playing since end of 1.0 and this step of the resistance relics is by far the worst yet. Every other step is able to be done solo a lot easier and doesn't take hour long queues to get a party of 2 just to not able to run. Lets put on a cup of Coffee and figure this out.

    Run POTD you said it yourself

    The POTD discords run dozens of 1-200 per day and by 150 you are guaranteed a drop

    Even if you do it yourself with 99/99 51-150 is easy to do solo and the chance goes up every 10 floors, just don’t sit there and spam 51-60

    Are people having issues getting DR runs? I just finished all the ShB relics not too long ago and there's at least one or two per day, and they usually run a few times. No outside tool needed.
    Now, there's a different problem with DR, and that's the 10 min timer to get in there, but that's a different topic.

    Look in Party Finder, and create a party yourself if one's not up.

    I'm in a couple of Discords that announce runs, and to be honest, I typically ignore those runs, because they're often along the lines of "Haste gear and Proper Essences(tm) required." Like, I'll bring my Haste gear and I'll have DPS-boosting actions and essences, but I want a chill run, not one where I'll feel bad if some boss takes 3 seconds too long to die.

    This. Falling into the "just farm 51-60" trap only works for people who are lazy and using it to level. 100+ is when you start getting more and 101-150 isn't even hard. You can do it solo, you can do it with a single friend and it's stupid easy. And doesn't require 23 other people like DR.

    I honestly think the drop rate in lower floor should be buffed at this point. Just like how arr's light farm got buffed

    It's far too easy of an alternative to DR if they do that. 1-100 can be slept through. Even if they buffed it, it would still pale in comparison to 101+. Just get the quest active and go through as far as you can, a bunch of times. You'll find yourself with more than you need.

    Hm i never did POTD for them, the rng drop rate wasnt good.

    Delubrum can be cleared in under 15 minutes, but everyone should use damage buffs. to speed it up.
    I guess now it is just hard to find a group? I have farmed all relics during shadowbringers though.
    If you plan to run delubrum, make sure to always have both quests active, because you need to run 3x delubrum for the last relic stage, but you can already farm them in advance.
    anyhow, look forward to 85x delubrum for all relics.
