How to Use Artifacts in Stalcraft
Artifacts in Stalcraft: X are powerful items that can improve your stats and give you special abilities. Here's how to use them:
1. Find or Obtain Artifacts
You can find artifacts in anomalies scattered around the map.
To safely collect artifacts, you’ll need protective gear to survive the anomalies. Basic gear can be bought or crafted, and better gear is unlocked as you progress.
2. Equip an Artifact Container
Before you can use artifacts, you need an artifact container. These containers let you store and use artifacts safely.
Artifact containers can be purchased or crafted, depending on your progress in the game.
3. Insert Artifacts into the Container
Open your inventory and locate the artifact container slot.
Drag and drop the artifact into the container to activate it.
Each container has a limit to how many artifacts it can hold, so choose wisely.
4. Activate the Artifacts
Once equipped, the artifact’s effects will automatically activate. These can include buffs like increased stamina, better resistance, or enhanced damage.
5. Manage Radiation and Side Effects
Most artifacts generate radiation, which can harm your character if not managed.
To counter this, use anti-radiation meds or wear armor with good radiation protection.
6. Upgrade or Swap Artifacts
As you progress, you can find better artifacts or containers. Always check stats and effects to make sure you’re using the best ones for your playstyle.
Replace artifacts by removing them from the container in your inventory and adding new ones.
Tips for Artifact Use:
Match Your Playstyle: Choose artifacts that align with your goals, like survival, combat, or movement.
Explore Anomalies Carefully: The best artifacts are found in dangerous zones. Always be prepared with gear and supplies.
Sell or Trade Extra Artifacts: If you have duplicates or ones you don’t need, sell them to earn money or trade with other players.
