Star Relic

From The StarCraft 2 Wiki

At this point, the Star Relic has been removed from the game, and its cloaking ability has been transferred to the Mothership.

[edit] Overview

The Star Relic is a Protoss aerial support unit, armed with a Fusion Beam that slowly drains away its target's health. When the target reaches zero hit points, it explodes, damaging nearby units and buildings. The strength of the explosion is determined by the strength and size of the unit destroyed.

The Star Relic has multiple support abilities. Similar to the Arbiter from Starcraft I, it has a cloaking ability. Unlike the Arbiter, the cloak is only enabled when the Star Relic is stationary, and the cloak is now powerful enough to affect buildings as well as units. In addition, the Star Relic has the Hallucination ability, an ability used by the High Templar in Starcraft I.

[edit] Background

No official word, but it is likely the technological successor to the Arbiter. It has some similar capabilities, but is now armed more heavily.
