🦇Artifacts

Description

Artifacts are a type of building object that are used as extensions to a workbench, of which there are different types namely: weapon, armor, and tool workbenches. Each of these workbenches requires its own Artifact.

Once the Artifact is installed and connected to the workbench, additional functionality is unlocked, allowing players to:

• Craft collectible items. They are a type of buildable object that you link to an existing workbench (at no extra cost) if your island contains sufficient artifact slots.

• Increase the rarity of collectible items*

• Upgrade the "Luck" parameter of collectible items

• Charge the collectible items

• Recycle shards

*Artifacts exist with various rarities. The rarity of the Artifact determines the maximum possible rarity which a collectible item can be upgraded to. An Artifact is the player's property and can be withdrawn from the game and sold on Open Loot and other marketplaces.

Obtaining an Artifact

The player can obtain an Artifact of a specific rarity in several ways:

• By purchasing it during a Sale on Open Loot marketplace.

• Obtaining it from an artifact lootbox.

• By buying it from other players on a marketplace.

Although you can get the first artifacts at our June sale, you will only be able to unlock their full potential after the July update!

Artifact Placement

Artifacts can be placed on an island that has a free Artifact slot. Installing an Artifact does not require any additional resources from the player. An Artifact must be placed close to the workbench that it will influence in order for it to create a link between the two.

Islands have a certain number of Artifact slots. The number of Artifacts cannot exceed the number of Artifact slots on that island.

Artifact Rarity:

The rarity of an artifact determines the maximum rarity of an item that can be created or charged from its associated crafting station.
Additionally, the island’s rarity determines the maximum rarity of an artifact that can be placed there.
A single artifact takes up one single artifact slot.

Artifacts will be released in phases. Initially, only a part of the Max Issuance will be available as Set 1. Set 2 will be released at a later date, increasing the number of Artifacts to the specified Max Issuance values.

Increasing the Rarity of Artifacts

The ability to increase the rarity of artifacts is available for a limited time during specific events. To do this, players must interact with a vendor– Jane the Artifacts Merchant– located on their Home Island.

How to Increase the Artifact Rarity

• Find Jane the Artifacts Merchant on your Home Island

• Use two artifacts of the same rarity to create an artifact of the next rarity

• Wait for the process to complete

Important:

• Artifacts that are rented cannot be upgraded

• Only one artifact rarity increase process can be started at a time
