Upon pickup, obtain 4 Wax Relics.
Every 3 combats, your left-most Wax Relic will melt away.
How It Works
Toy Box is an Ancient relic that grants you 4 random Wax Relics when picked up. These Wax Relics provide powerful passive effects, but they're temporary — every 3 combats, the left-most Wax Relic melts away and is removed from your inventory.
This creates a unique risk-reward dynamic: Toy Box gives you a massive short-term power spike, but you need to capitalize on it quickly before your Wax Relics disappear. It's best used to push through difficult Acts or farm elites while you're at peak strength.

Strategy Tips
▸You get 4 random Wax Relics when you pick up Toy Box — massive early power spike.
▸Every 3 combats, your left-most Wax Relic melts away. Plan your route to maximize value before they disappear.
▸Wax Relics are temporary but powerful — treat them as a short-term boost to help you survive difficult Acts.
▸Best picked up in Act 1 or early Act 2 to maximize the number of combats you benefit from.
▸Synergizes well with aggressive pathing — fight more elites while your Wax Relics are active.
▸Not ideal in late Act 3 or Act 4 — you'll only get 1-2 combats of value before they melt.
