Artifact Rarity and Properties

All artifacts within a tier share the same upgrade cost and engulf value. Artifact rarity influences their power:

Orange
Red
Green
Purple
Yellow
Blue

Orange and Red artifacts are the highest tier. Some artifacts are hero-specific, granting unique abilities or stats when equipped. Exclusive artifacts are generally stronger than standard versions and offer an additional property exclusive to heroes of a specific faction (indicated by a faction icon).
