Artifact

Artifacts are non-craftable magical items that can be found as loot or earned as quest rewards. Artifacts that are not locked in your Inventory have title text that is a orange-like Brown. If you are not sure if an item is an artifact, hover your mouse over the item, then look at the info window that pops-up. An artifact will show "Artifact" in the info window.

Repairing An Artifact[edit]

Artifact Musical Instruments (such as the Fleet Flute) do not have durability and never break; therefore, they cannot be repaired.

Types of Artifact Repair[edit]

Repair with an Ancient Essence - Non-instrument artifacts can be repaired by dragging and dropping an Ancient Essence onto the artifact (when the artifact is in your Inventory). 20 points of "Current Durability" are restored for each ancient essence applied to the artifact (but the essences will not increase the "Maximum Durability Achievable with Essences").
Major Repair - increases the "Current Durability" and the "Maximum Durability Achievable with Essences".

When to Perform an Essence Repair Versus Major Repair[edit]

It is most efficient to repair artifacts with an Ancient Essence until the "Durability Achievable with Ancient Essences" is zero (or close to zero), then perform a Major Repair.

For definitions of "Current Durability" and "Maximum Durability Achievable with Essences", and for more details on how durability functions, see Durability.

For additional information, see Repair.

Combining Artifacts to Increase the Tier[edit]

With the Smelting skill, lower tier Artifacts of same type can be combined to create an Artifact of a higher tier. Higher tier artifacts are more powerful.

The Recipes for combining artifacts are Discoverable. Combining artifacts is performed at the Smelting Station and you must have Smelting Tongs equipped. The recipes to combine Artifacts require that the following ingredients be placed on the crafting table:


To Make This Artifact Tier	Place These Ingredients on Smelting Station
To Make This Artifact Tier	Artifacts	Ancient Essence	Tool	Chunk of Coal
Uncommon	4 Common	1	Stone Chisel	100
Rare	4 Uncommon	2	Stone Chisel	100
Legendary	4 Rare	4	Stone Chisel	100
Epic	2 Legendary	6	Stone Chisel	100

The total number of common artifacts necessary to make each artifact tier is shown below:


To Make This Artifact Tier	Total # of Common Tier Artifacts Required
Uncommon	4 Common
Rare	16 Common
Legendary	64 Common
Epic	128 Common
