=== Relic === | |||
Relics found on the final floor of a historic site will be generated either from the context of the location (zone) where the relic is found, or the full context of the encompassing historic site. For this reason, it is common for relics found in historic sites to be named after the historic site or the zone where they were found. In both cases, the relic will also be very likely to exhibit properties that are aligned with the historic site's sultan, because both the historic site and the locations within it are associated with the period of the sultan's reign, and inherit many of their qualities from the associated sultan.<ref name="AddSultanHistoryLocations" /> | |||
=== Credit Wedges === | |||
The cybernetics credit wedge reward is determined based on a numeric zone difficulty value that is either equal to the surface [[World_Map#World_Tier|world tier]] (if the zone where the relic chest is found is strata 5 or higher) or else based on the value '''2 + Floor((Depth - 6) / 5)'''.<ref name="RelicBuilder" />{{Code Reference|namespace=XRL.World|class=Zone|method=NewTier}} | The cybernetics credit wedge reward is determined based on a numeric zone difficulty value that is either equal to the surface [[World_Map#World_Tier|world tier]] (if the zone where the relic chest is found is strata 5 or higher) or else based on the value '''2 + Floor((Depth - 6) / 5)'''.<ref name="RelicBuilder" />{{Code Reference|namespace=XRL.World|class=Zone|method=NewTier}} | ||

While each floor of a historic site has a chance to be named based on particular locations mentioned in a sultan's history, the exact number of named and unnamed floors will vary depending on the particular sultan's history and the number of locations associated with the historic site region.<ref name="AddSultanHistoryLocations" /> | While each floor of a historic site has a chance to be named based on particular locations mentioned in a sultan's history, the exact number of named and unnamed floors will vary depending on the particular sultan's history and the number of locations associated with the historic site region.<ref name="AddSultanHistoryLocations" /> | ||
== Additional Relics == | |||
In addition to the relics described above, each individual floor of a historic site that does not already contain a final floor relic or a location-specific relic has a 0.3% chance to contain an additional randomly generated relic.{{Code Reference|namespace=XRL.World.WorldBuilders|class=JoppaWorldBuilder|method=AddSultanHistoryLocations}} | |||
