Relics don't have shields.. But they are heavily guarded.. In some severs some time ago empty relics also used to come.. But now I think all relics are heavily guarded.. So you need a good alliance to take a relic.. And taking relic is not enough.. You also have to guard it form other alliances..
As the objective is top collect all 10 relis and win

I suggest you build all your structures and an army with over 100 ships if you want to capture a relic, you should get in one of the top 30 alliances as well.
