Artifacts in AOTR
Artifacts sit next to your perks. They are where small stat lines add up: crit, durability, and niche bonuses that can make a spear build feel “finished” after you finish the Thunder Spear quest.
High-tier ideas
A solid crit-focused artifact for players running crit-heavy ODM and Thunder Spear loadouts. Extra slots help you fine-tune your build over time.
Base effect: +5% crit damage
Rolling in a live game
“High-tier” in chat means “good for the current balance.” If a patch reworks crit, what used to be BIS can slide overnight. Revisit perks and the tier list the same week you push rerolls, and only trade for finished pieces through safe channels in community hubs.

What rarity should I chase first?
Epic and above often define endgame, but a well-rolled lower tier still clears content while you save keys. Do not overpay in trades for a label alone.
