True the artifacts are worthless. I have a treasure hunter and toss all the artifacts I get for 10k a pop on my vendor. Then it's anybody's guess how long they sit there...

I'd like a ring, but it's too op:
Ring of Nihility
Cursed
-200 all skills

And some artifact that allows you to tame paragons or covetous Cora's minions. Or/and negates/lowers pet skill/stat drop on tame.

Well, they don't have the artifact tag, since they pre-date it, but I'd love to see glacial staffs get their special spells back. :)

Always wanted something that made the Wrestling skill a more viable offensive option
Gloves or a ring that have a property that only works if bare handed.

Stuff like
50% chance on hit when bare handed to apply bleed

or something more abstract like

"Equipping this ring extends your bare handed range by X amount". Magic phantom fists or stretchy arms.

this is the most productive, interesting thread i've seen in a while. devs I really hope you are listening.......... wouldn't hurt for you guys to give the players some feedback on their good ideas and discuss feasibility and you know, engage with your player base... of course some ideas posted here a little impractical, but many are good. i personally am tired of seeing more and more deco. lets add some useful, hard to get items back into the game that serve a purpose! not to be a jerk or anything but i've been waiting for a thread like this to break out.

seen a lot of awesome suggestions here. thanks for this Uvtha!!!!!!!!!!! love the mark of the covetous.

Not really an artifact, but could be a nice rare drop:

Barreraak's Seasoning (looks like a powder of fort but abyssal hue)

5000 charges
Random Slayer

Apply seasoning mix to tasty treats to create a slayer version of the tasty treat... which when fed to a pet gives the pet a slayer bonus for the duration of the treat.

i know this is off topic but the suggested mark of the covetous property allowing a 20% chance of hiding after stealing gave me an idea in regards to stealing in general (not with this item). what if you when stealing from a player you had a chance to steal a small percentage of gold from the players bank account? say like a random chance at 1%, 2%, or 5% gold or something. maybe this would revitalize the stealing ability in fel?? also, there could be a measure where you can't steal bank gold from a player multiple times within a specified period of time. this would allow bigger returns, and could be more rewarding than just stealing a few pots. i think i'm talking crazy so feel free to shoot me down. i'm sure there is some logistical issues with this...

but going along with this thread, what about incorporating some unique sounds into some new artifacts? like a dragon themed sword will make... dragon sounds every swing. yea im def cray.

So devs...

Create one of these items for each ML Peerless boss. Add it to the loot table at the same drop rate as the Crimson Cincture. Double the drop rate and make it 50 / 50 Crimson vs New Artifact. Watch old content get a huge breath of new life and fresh air...

See! No need to muck with the entire monetary system of the game, or add another insane set of indecipherable and unusable layer of crafting or over complication of existing systems. Also, don't feel the need to totally revamp the encounters or the AI of the peerless bosses.

I'm pretty sure this would be a huge win with very little effort and risk.

My ring is more op than this sword, but the idea of players searching it is nice.
Yeah, sword is Ultima lore so I thought I would use it as an inspiration along the same lines as your ring.

Also having artifacts that have to be found and there's always just one of them is a cool idea to me. Having them spawn on the ground, in crates, on a random npc... somewhere they they wouldn't be found every day, would give people a nice reason to get up and run around and snoop through crap. Ideally there would be other reasons too, but..

Oh hell yeah. I would love to see some reworks of the older artifacts. Let's see if I can take a stab at it.

Berserker's Maul
Damage Increase 50%
Swing Speed Increase 60%
Battle Lust
Hit Physical Area 50%
Hit Fatigue 50%
Hit Stamina Leech 100%
Naked Savage: For every 5 points of DCI the user doesn't have, +1 direct damage per hit, with +1 as a base. Formula: (45 - DCI) / 5 + 1
(would also be cool to work in Berserk attribute if it wasn't a nerfed, broken mess)

Axe of the Heavens
Hit Lightning 100%
Hit Chance Increase 20%
Defense Chance Increase 20%
Damage Increase 50%
Hit Mana Leech 50%

Tunic of Fire
Night Sight
Reflect Physical Damage 20%
Stamina Increase 10
Stamina Regen 5
15/20/10/10/10
Fire Aura: When activated, does 5 fire damage per second to all enemies within 2 tiles, and 5 damage per second to wearer.

Legacy of the Dread Lord
Spell Channeling
Fast Cast Recovery 3
Swing Speed Increase 40%
Damage Increase 50%
Defense Chance Increase 15%
Dread: Splintering 40% if bearing the title "Dread Lord".

Breath of the Dead
Damage Increase 50%
Hit Life Leech 100%
Hit Fatigue 100%
Hit Mana Drain 100%
Hit Curse 50%
Cold Damage 100%
Draw Life: The weapon automatically draws life force from nearby corpses in a way similar to Spirit Speak that heals the user, but in smaller spurts until the corpse is drained. The amount of time it takes to drain the corpse is affected by the user's Spirit Speak skill level. If no corpses are nearby, the weapon draws life from the user similar to the Lich Form spell.

Well, that was fun.
I really like the idea of being a dread lord being a conditional effect. Pretty cool! It would be neat if karma/fame title meant anything other than for chiv.

Holy Knight's Breastplate
Hit Point Increase 10
HP Regen 3
Reflect Physical Damage 20%
Defense Chance Increase 15%
20/15/15/15/15
Lightbringer: A bonus to the user's damage modifier based upon fame and karma, ranging from 0 - 50. However, any fame and karma loss is double the normal rate.

Grey Warden (Plate Helm)
Hit Point Increase 10
Lower Mana Cost 10%
Mage Armor
15/5/15/10/10
Grey Path: Aggressive monsters will not attack the user, so long as the user's fame is >10000 and karma is between -500 and 500. Karma lock is disabled but gains and losses are reduced.

And here's one more, but no fame/karma stuff.

The Dragon Slayer
Once a faulty, poorly crafted lance, the Dragon Slayer broke after a single strike and was left embedded in a dragon's hide. It remained there for many years, being inadvertently heated by the dragon's fire, tempered with its own blood and magical essence and made whole, until one day a warrior who sought to slay it, after his own weapon melted by the dragon's intense fire, noticed the lance embedded in the dragon's hide and pulled it out. The dragon immediately died and the warrior found the lance was imbued with an even greater power.
Damage Increase 50%
Hit Physical Area 60%
Use Best Weapon Skill
"Evil" Slayer (super slayer for all monsters)
The Wild Joust: The user has a 20% chance to inflict a strike that will add between 50-200 direct damage on top of their normal damage if user is mounted (no animal form) and running at full speed in a straight line. The longer the line the user runs, the greater the direct damage. However, the target has a chance, based upon its wrestling or weapon skill, to deflect the blow, dismount the user, daze the user (no running) and inflict a heavy blow. Only works on monsters, not players.

I want an artifact that would be a one time use to remove a cruse or brittle from an item. It would come in a drop and the drop rate would be low. I think most of us have saved that one perfect piece and it would be exciting to be able to fix it, so it would be useful.

(random but always the same i e. Smithing.. Tailor etc) (so you can collect one for smith one for tailor etc)

Make it a very limited high end bod reward.. Like 1% drop when getting a smith bod or tailor bod of max value... A limited drop instead of a val hammer or barbed kit etc.

Maybe toss on something like 20% less resources used.
