Relics are powerful items that provide your Nightfarer with a significant advantage during each Elden Ring Nightreign run. Interestingly, there's a limit to how many of these you can stockpile in your hideout.

A user on the r/Nightreign subreddit recently shared a screenshot from their game, showing a special alert when they tried to begin an expedition. The message stated, "Cannot launch expedition: Too many relics in possession. Please use the relic rite menu to sell off spares."

You can't play if you have too many relics

The user, u/Scufozzover1, didn't provide an exact count but estimated they had "upwards of 1000 maybe." While a general 999-item limit is a likely culprit, the precise threshold remains unclear without grinding to that number.

Clearing out your relic storage is worthwhile, primarily to gather resources. If you're repeatedly playing Elden Ring Nightreign, it's easy to lose track of how many relics you've accumulated.

Comments in the thread revived a common critique of Elden Ring Nightreign: the necessity of relic management. As your collection grows, it becomes challenging to organize everything, highlighting a potential need for better sorting or filtering options.

I already find it somewhat tedious with my modest stockpile of basic relics, so I can only imagine the situation for this Redditor with hundreds in their inventory. While this may not affect most players immediately, it's worth monitoring as Nightreign progresses over time. At the very least, it's a useful reminder to periodically clear out unused relics.
