Overview

The Artifacts system is used by the game to spawn various high value items in ruins and many other locations. Each location has a min/max monetary value for both artifact types, which appears use the item's Sell Value. The game will randomly select a number of artifacts to spawn in that location, whose total value will fall into that specified range.

Item Artifacts consist of Research Artifacts that can be spawned by this system. While it can only spawn these Research Artifacts, it is not always the only way they spawn. Though it is by far the most common source for them. While it can spawn any other Research Artifact, it will never spawn the normal Book item.

Gear Artifacts consist of Weapons and Armour spawned by this system. Any armour spawned will be of Specialist quality, while any weapons will be of either Catun Scrapmaster, Skeleton Smiths, or Edgewalkers quality. With equal chances between them, and equal chances for weapon types and model.
