Adds 6 customizable artifacts to traumatize your friends with.
Artifact Of War
- Time Increase = ++Spawn Rates, +++Difficulty
(swarm effect +1 every 5 minutes, max 5), Spawnrate Cap = 250 - Stage Increase = ++Monster Evolution +++ Item Droprate
Items are exponentially given to monsters, items dropped are automatically given to the player, with a chat notification. - This artifact generally creates a harder version of the game.
Consider rainstorm to be monsoon difficulty, monsoon is just terrifying, drizzle == ??
Artifact Of Entropy
- Various actions in-game are randomly given effects from a large pool of outcomes ranging from being a godsend to single handedly destroying everyone you love.
- These outcomes have a randomly defined chance to occur, from 0-100%.
- Discovering what actions do what, adapting, and dealing with mental health trauma is vital to your survival. Will you master the chaos? Or die trying...
- Current Amount of possible outcomes to experience: 80
- Current Amount of possible actions that cause outcomes: 23
Artifact Of Unity
- All items are shared among players, but enemies are much stronger.
Artifact Of The Titans
- Enemy size scales according to their credit cost, and elites are scaled even more brutally.
- Teleporter Boss Scales multiplicatively with stage (max 10 stages)
Artifact of Smash
- Enemies and Survivors are knocked back in proportion to their remaining health and damage dealt.
- Impacts on surfaces deal damage to all entities.
- Prepare to SMASH, or be SMASHED!
Artifact of Reconstruction
- Play as any monster in the game, with any base stats of your choosing.
- You can open the ui for selecting your monster in-game through a keybind (default: F2)
- Perfect for mithrix gamers like myself.
New artifacts and updates to current ones are in development. I am open to any feedback and/or requests for new features on the RoR2 discord @bcs4313, or through my email at bcs4313@g.rit.edu. Also I would love to watch you play it (yes I am a sadist)!

1.4.4
A metric ton of bugfix/tuning/quality of life updates.
* Added default options to all artifacts with custom settings.
* Monsters/items from gangs in artifact of entropy are now consistent with their given seed value.
* The Artifact of Entropy now has a custom setting to generate a new set of events upon heading into the next stage.
* fixed a common outOfRangeException for the findRandomMonster() supporting method.
* Some triggers in artifact of entropy are limited in events due to their inability to supply a player body, however, a workaround was made and now they can activate any event.
* Triggers affected -> Teleporter, CoinBarrel, Item Drop
* Some triggers strictly targeted the server host, even when a client player would do an action. This is no longer an issue.

* Fixed a ton of null exceptions everywhere.
* Fixed a bug where events that played sounds to all players would bug out if the host is dead and the client is not.
* Fixed a synchronization issue with titans that makes some enemies fail to resize. This is due to packet loss and higher ping levels. The system is not FOOLPROOF, but is relatively consistent.
