"Elden Ring Player Finds Limit to Relic Storage"

Author:Kristen Update:Jun 23,2025

Relics are powerful items in *Elden Ring: Nightreign* that offer your Nightfarer valuable bonuses during each run. However, it turns out there is a limit to how many of these relics you can store in your hideaway at one time.

A recent post on the r/Nightreign subreddit highlights this issue. The user shared a screenshot showing an error message when attempting to start a new expedition: “Cannot launch expedition: Too many relics in possession. Please use the relic rite menu to sell off spares.”

The user, u/Scufozzover1, estimated they were holding “upwards of 1000 maybe,” though the exact cap remains unclear. While some speculate it could be tied to a general item limit of 999, most players likely won’t reach that number unless they’ve been hoarding relics for multiple runs.

Still, there are good reasons to regularly clear out unused relics—mainly to free up space and earn extra resources through selling. If you're deep into *Elden Ring: Nightreign* and running expeditions frequently, it's easy to lose track of how many relics you've collected over time.

This situation has reignited discussions around relic management in *Nightreign*. As more relics are acquired, organizing them becomes increasingly difficult. Many players have suggested implementing better filtering or sorting features to help manage large collections more efficiently.

For now, this issue may not affect every player immediately—but as weeks go by and relic stockpiles grow, it could become more common. At the very least, it’s a helpful reminder to periodically tidy up your relic inventory and sell off any duplicates or weaker options.
