What Are Artifacts?
Artifacts are special items that provide permanent boosts to your farm’s performance. They are stored and managed in the Artifact Hall, which unlocks as you progress into mid-game.
Artifacts can increase production rates, improve contract efficiency, and even enhance rocket launches.
How to Unlock Artifacts
Artifacts are primarily obtained through space missions launched by rockets. Each mission has a chance to return with artifacts of varying rarity. The higher the mission tier, the better the artifacts you’ll receive.
Types of Artifacts
Artifacts come in different rarities:
- Common – Basic bonuses.
- Rare – Stronger boosts with specialized effects.
- Epic – Powerful bonuses that can shape strategy.
- Legendary – Extremely rare, game-changing artifacts.
How to Use Artifacts
Artifacts can be slotted into your Artifact Hall. Each artifact applies its effect globally to your farm once activated. Players can mix and match to suit their goals, such as contract farming or prestige runs.
Optimizing Artifact Placement
- Synergy: Combine artifacts that enhance each other. For example, production multipliers plus vehicle bonuses.
- Targeted Goals: Use specific artifacts when focusing on contracts versus when preparing to prestige.
- Rotation: Swap artifacts depending on the activity—missions, long-term farming, or contracts.
Rerolling and Upgrading Artifacts
Sometimes, artifacts won’t give the bonuses you need. Rerolling lets you adjust attributes, though it can be resource-intensive. Always reroll strategically rather than randomly.
Upgrading artifacts is also possible, combining lower-rarity items into stronger versions. This system rewards long-term farming and mission completion.
Common Pitfalls With Artifacts
- Hoarding without equipping—artifacts only work when slotted.
- Focusing too heavily on rarity rather than synergy.
- Rerolling too early and wasting resources.
Final Thoughts
Artifacts are a mid-to-late-game mechanic that add depth and strategy to Egg, Inc. By targeting the right artifacts through missions, optimizing their placement, and upgrading them wisely, you can achieve massive multipliers and dominate both contracts and farming progression.
