Should I keep my relic gear?
I have a number of bits of orange Relic grade gear which are not quite as good as my existing gear. I've been holding onto them just because I feel they are 'rare', so might be valuable, plus the relic swords have three sockets.
Now that I have 4 swords and a number of relic pieces of armour, I'm beginning to wonder what actual value they might have.
So is it worth keeping this gear or dismantling it? Will dismantling relic gear net me any rare crafting resources? Is it worth me specifically socketing it with runes to match a type(s) of monster, so I can swap to that specific sword before fighting?
Best Answer
Dismantling it generally results in much lighter gems / dust, that hold value nicely. After you have crafted the Witcher class gear, you'll find that little matches it (let alone bests it).
You can keep the weapons, and optimise them for a specific monster type, but will likely find it inefficient in comparison to a good sword with decent oil applied, against weight-used.

Is relic better than Witcher gear?
Witcher gear is almost always better based on the fact it upgrades with you. Saying that some pieces can be replaced. I use Assassin gauntlets relic instead of Witcher gear. Witcher stuff does only level so far where as relics can be found at all different levels.Should you sell or dismantle relics Witcher 3?
If you need the parts then dismantle it. If you need the money, sell it. If you don't need either, just pass it up.What do you do with relics in Witcher 3?
they are the highest rarity. But you will get alot of them so just dismantle them when you dont need. The only reason it matters is if you want to break them down for higher quality components. The more rare the weapon, the higher grade the ore, etc.Should I keep Witcher sword?
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt The Viper set swords cannot be upgraded and were only added to help early-level players. So yeah, go ahead and sell them. Other than nostalgia, nope. You can always put the in the chest when you get better swords that way you will always have them without having to lug them around with you.LOSTARK 2.0 WHY PEOPLE SAY YOUR CLASS WILL FEEL BETTER LATE T3 AND WHAT ARE THE RELIC GEARS

It varies on rarity. Go to it and see how rare it is on The Witchers Wiki. Then you will find your answer. If you tell me the name of the gear, I will look it up on the wiki for you.
