Relic note
Defensive relics are strongest when they change route decisions. Pael Shield-style relics should be ranked by the fights they make safer: an elite that becomes pathable, a boss turn that stops forcing a rest, or a slow deck that finally has time to set up.

- Raise the relic when it changes pathing or rest decisions.
- Lower it when the deck still lacks damage to end fights.
- Pair defensive relic notes with boss-prep warnings.
