Before you start, head over to the vendorbot and buy a "Novice's Relic Blaster"
To harvest nodes, you will right click them and use V to vacum the items after the node is depleted.
The purpose of Relic Hunter in Wildstar is to gather omni-plasm and Eldan relics from Relic nodes to support professions that need them. Weaponsmiths and Technologists Tradeskills all use the output of Relic Hunting so it is a great profession to pair with those.
Also knowing so many consumers need the materials from Relic Hunting, it is a great way to make cash.
