Artifact Rarity and Properties

All artifacts within a tier share the same upgrade cost and engulf value. Artifact rarity impacts their effectiveness:

  • Orange
  • Red
  • Green
  • Purple
  • Yellow
  • Blue

Orange and Red artifacts are the highest tier. Some artifacts are hero-specific, granting unique abilities or stats when equipped. These exclusive versions usually surpass their standard counterparts and offer an additional property exclusive to heroes of a particular faction (indicated by a faction icon).
