Artifacts

Artifact of Chaos

Artifacts are game modifiers that may drastically alter some aspect of gameplay. Most Artifact codes can be found engraved on rectangular stone tablets scattered through the game (generally hidden), which must be inputted in a special event to unlock the corresponding Artifact. Once an Artifact is unlocked, the player can enable it at the start of a new run.

In multiplayer, the Artifacts unlocked by all players in the lobby are pooled; the team can enable or disable any Artifact that has been unlocked by any of the party members.

Unlocking

To unlock an Artifact, the player must input an Artifact Code in Sky Meadow using the Compound Generator below the map, then interact with the laptop. A portal to the trial for that Artifact in Bulwark's AmbryBulwark's Ambry (Hidden Realm)
Hidden Realm: Bulwark's Ambry
The area consists of block-shaped platforms, with the Artifact Reliquary in the center. will spawn.

The Compound Generator's inputs will cycle in the order: square, circle, triangle, diamond (■ ● ▲ ♦).

In the Ambry, the Artifact whose trial is being attempted will be active (in addition to any other Artifacts that were enabled at the start of the run), and an Artifact KeyArtifact Key

Damage: 10 (+2 per level)
Class: Ranged
Speed: 0 m/s
Armor: 100000. The player must pick up the Artifact Key and then interact with the Artifact Reliquary, which will cause monsters to start spawning. More Artifact Keys will randomly drop from killed monsters. Using an Artifact Key will remove them from all players' inventories, preventing players from hoarding keys.

Upon destroying the Artifact Reliquary, the Artifact can be taken and a portal to a First Stage will appear.

Delusion

Artifact of Delusion resets all chests once the teleporter event is finished and provides players the chance to receive additional items if they interact with the reset chests.

• This Artifact resets chests after the Teleporter Event, at the end of the trial in Bulwark's AmbryBulwark's Ambry (Hidden Realm)
  Hidden Realm: Bulwark's Ambry
  The area consists of block-shaped platforms, with the Artifact Reliquary in the center., and after every 5th wave in Simulacrum.
• This reset affects only Small Chests, Large Chests, Category Chests, Large Category Chests, and Cloaked Chests.
• Chests are marked for reset only if the item that was dropped from them has been picked up before the completion of the teleporter event. Unopened chests or chests whose loot is left on the ground are unaffected by this.
  • The correct answer to the challenge is what item was collected from the pickup it dropped, not what item it had originally dropped. For example, with the Artifact of Command or a Recycler45sRecycler
    Transform an Item or Equipment into a different one. Can only recycle once.
    Transform an Item or Equipment into a different one. Can only be converted into the same tier one time. the correct choice is whatever the item is eventually transformed into.
• Reset chests do not cost anything, unlike the original purchase, and the player is instead prompted with the message "Remember..." which opens up a panel with three items one of which is the correct choice. Selecting the correct item will produce another free copy of it, while failing the memory game will take away a stack of the item incorrectly selected.
  • This item is taken away from the interacting player. It does not matter who originally purchased the chest or who picked up its loot.
  • If the interacting player chooses wrong but has no stacks of said item, the visual effect of the item being taken away will play but it will have no effect.
• The fake choices are randomly selected from the player's inventory that interacts with the chest after it has been reset. Even if the player then leaves to pick up more items and comes back, this won't affect what choices will be offered.
  • The fake choices for each player depend on their own inventory. Therefore, it is possible to compare the options between two players in a multiplayer game to narrow down the correct choice.
  • The fake choices ensure that they meet the requirements of the owning chest, e.g., Large Chests can only produce uncommon and legendary items, while Category Chests can only produce items of a specific item category.
    • This can be used to the player's advantage. For example, if the item from a Damage Chest has been rerolled into a healing item, this will be the correct choice since the fake ones could have never produced such a choice.
    • The fake choices cannot be scrap items, but there is a flaw in the filtering process which does allow Boss items and Survivors of the Void - DLC Content
      Regenerating Scrap (Consumed) is part of the Survivors of the Void DLC. It is only available if the DLC is enabled when starting a run.
      Click for more info. Regenerating Scrap (Consumed)Survivors of the Void - DLC Content
      This content is part of the Survivors of the Void DLC. It is only available if the DLC is enabled when starting a run.
      Click for more info.Regenerating Scrap (Consumed)
      At the start of each stage, it transforms into Regenerating Scrap., which is an Untiered item, to be valid fake choices.
    • If the player's inventory does not have enough items that meet the requirements to choose fakes from, random ones will be generated. These fake items are selected by generating new loot from the relevant chest, so they will always meet the requirements of being valid. While the fake items can never be the same as the correct one, it is possible, however unlikely, to be the same with each other.
• The color of the panel can be white, green, or red. This is decided by the leftmost item in the choices and in no way hints what the rarity of the correct choice is.
• Using Artifact of Sacrifice will make this Artifact useless.
• This Artifact synergizes well with Artifact of Devotion since if the player offers a good item to a Lemurian egg, they have the opportunity to also get a copy of it after the teleporter event.
• The code can be found in the Verdant Falls, but is also secretly hidden in the promotional trailer for the update behind in titles of the new artifacts.

• Similarly, Void Monsters spawned by a Void Seed or a Family Event can quickly wipe out all of your allies.
• During and after the Teleporter Event, new lemurian eggs cannot be opened.
• Both Lemurian and Elder Lemurian allies are governed by the same AI and as such do not act like their monster versions. It is notable that since they cannot sprint, they do not benefit from sprinting related items. Their behaviors are the following:
  • Use secondary: The ally must be within 15m from its target and have line of sight. This behavior is active for 1.5 seconds, which means a Lemurian attempts to bite multiple times in this time frame.
  • Use primary while strafing: The ally must be within 65m from its target and have line of sight. This behavior is active for 2 seconds. Since the primary attack of Lemurians has no cooldown and strafing an enemy effectively keeps some distance unless the enemy closes in, Lemurian allies will constantly use their Fireball attack from greater distance than a monster Lemurian would.
  • Return to owner: The ally must be at least 15m away from its owner.
  • Stay idle near owner: While this has no distance restrictions, due to the above behavior it will only be selected if the ally is within 15m from its owner.
  • While this AI has more behaviors, one of the above behavior will have had its requirements met by this point. This makes the remaining behaviors pointless which are not listed for the sake of brevity.

• Each stage, monsters obtain an item. The rarity of the items will be Common, Common, Uncommon, Uncommon, Legendary, repeating every loop.
• The items monsters gain are cumulative; when advancing to the next stage, the monsters will keep all the items they already had in addition to the new item from the new stage.
• Monsters cannot gain blacklisted items, on-kill items, sprint-related items, and equipment-related items. They also cannot gain any boss items or equipment.

The player can interact with these as normal, gaining many free items.
• The game rolls for a new item at the beginning of a new stage, even with the Artifact disabled. This is probably so that the game properly accumulates the items in the case the player visits Bulwark's Ambry at a later time.
• The game will roll for a new item only when the stage number increases. Since visiting most Hidden Realms does not change this counter, a new item will not be rolled. For example, visiting the Bazaar Between Time afer the first stage will roll for a new item since leaving the first stage increments the stage counts. But leaving the Bazaar Between Time does not change this and will therefore still have two items after advancing to the next Environment.

This also means that if a turret is still alive after the Engineer has been killed, the purple screen filter will persit until all entities holding the special item have been eliminated.

Trivia

Artifact design in the credits

• In the credits, there is a whiteboard design of an Artifact. It has no use but possibly could in the future.
• The Artifact of Frailty is known internally as the Artifact of "Weak Ass Knees".
• Each shape of the artifact code is heavily implied to refer to each element mentioned in Bulwark's Ambry's logbook.
  • The mass is the sphere, design is the cube, blood is the tetrahedron, and soul is the octahedron. Noticeably, the colors of the bright red tetrahedron and transparent octahedron correspond to the pillars of blood and soul found in the final stage of the game.
