Design notes

AR-005 + AR-013 + AR-023 LOCKED. Four slots per weapon — Core, Control, Enhancement, Blessing — ALWAYS UNLOCKED. Players fill them by looting; not every relic fits every weapon.

The relic build replaces the deleted Evolution system as the source of weapon depth. Match-only, destroyed at match end, never sold, never in the Battle Pass.

Exists only inside the match server, never written to the player account database. Discovery is recorded in the Akashic Codex ([[SYS-019]]) — the knowledge persists, the relic does not.
