Artifacts are rare items found in New World. These items provide unique perks that can change the way you play the game. With the arrival of New World Season 5, 8 new artifacts have been added to the game. These Artifacts can be found in Expeditions, Open World, PVP Reward Track and more!

In this guide, we’ll cover the fastest way to find these 8 new Artifacts in Season of the Guardian, and explain the new method of obtaining Artifacts on Season 4 Reward Track. Let’s get started now!

New Way To Get Season 4 Artifacts

First, let’s review some of Season 4’s Artifacts, which now have new ways to obtain them.

Winged Leather Shoes

The first thing we want to mention is Medium Footwear, Winged Leather Shoes, which increases your base haste duration by 50%. This artifact now drops from Open World boss Helianthus, who can be found in Wild Legion.

Quickdraw Gloves

And then we also have Light Gloves, Quickdraw Gloves. This glove enhances your reflexes and allows for quick weapon draw and lightning-fast reactions in combat. This Artifact now drops from Open World boss Ipomoea, who you can find in Elysian Wilds.

I need to remind you that if you hope to defeat these Open World Bosses and get artifacts as quickly as possible, it is crucial to spend some New World Coins to get a decent gear!

Pity System

It is also worth noting that a new Pity System has been added to artifacts this season, which guarantees a certain number of kills to obtain artifacts. This is a great new addition for those less fortunate players out there. However, the exact number used by Pity System has not been disclosed.

How To Get All New Artifacts?

But now let’s take a look back at 8 Artifacts featured in New World Season of the Guardian.

Free Version Of Season 5 Season Pass

First, we will have the two artifacts that can be obtained from the free version of Season 5 Season Pass.

Creed Boots: First up, we have Light Footwear, Creed Boots, which deal 15% extra damage and 25% critical chance as long as you don’t hit the target within 20 seconds. It drops at level 20 in the free version of Season 5 Season Pass. But a new way to get it will be revealed in Season 6.

Phoenix: And then we also have Amulet Jewelry, Phoenix. When you take fatal damage, it will help you avoid death and become invincible for 4 seconds, after which you die. It drops at level 80 in the free version of Season Pass. Likewise, new ways to obtain it will be revealed in Season 6.

Trial Bosses

Next we have some Artifacts that will drop from Trial Bosses in New World.

Nature’s Wrath: First up, we have Medium Chest Armor, Nature’s Wrath, which makes empower expires 200% faster but deals 20% more damage. This artifact is dropped by Zygoramet boss in Spriggan Arena.

Venom: Next we get Venom Spear, which lets you inflict poison on enemies when making a melee attack with either weapon, and increases weapon damage by 20%. This artifact is dropped from Siren Queen boss in Siren Queen Trial in Spire of Melpomene.

Gilli’s Gravity Gauntlets: Then we have Heavy Glove, Gilli’s Gravity Gauntlets. Whenever you take damage, you gain an empowerment charge, increasing the damage of your next attack by 3%. Avarice drops this artifact in Eternal Pool Arena.

Other Methods

Finally, we look at Artifacts that can be dropped in different ways.

Sin: First, we have Sin Hatchet, which will increase the duration of your debuffs by 25% and increase the damage done to the target by 2% for each debuff. This artifact is dropped from Open World Boss, Colossus of Memnon, located in Brimstone Sands.

Ironheart: Next we have Heavy Legwear, Ironheart. When not in heavy load-out, it increases your maximum health by 20%. This artifact can be obtained at the third checkpoint on PVP track as long as your track level reaches 29.

Tempest Fury: Finally we have Great Axe, Tempest Fury. It gives you 3% movement speed for 3 seconds after a successful attack. Also, Whirlwind no longer needs to hit a target to continue spinning, and can spin up to 12 times. This artifact is a reward for completing Winter Rune Forge Trial and can be obtained up to twice per week.

All in all, this guide covers all the new Artifacts dropped in Season 5. What are your favorite new Artifacts? Happy gaming!

New World Season 4 is coming, and with it comes the exciting addition of 8 new artifacts. Four artifacts have been revealed and we will provide insights into their applications. While the other four remain a mystery, we can speculate on what they might offer.

In this guide, we’ll delve into the details of these artifacts, discussing their potential and the impact they can have on your gaming experience.

Boltcaster

Let’s start with Boltcaster, an artifact that is sure to interest bow users. This artifact converts 99% of your damage into lightning damage, while providing a 20% damage boost to both of your weapons.

What’s more interesting is that this artifact allows you to stun your opponent with maximum health when hit. This can cause a devastating burst of damage to an unsuspecting enemy.

However, it’s worth noting choosing the lightning damage route may leave your bow vulnerable to Elemental Aversion debuff. Also, Bow and Rapier Build has the exciting potential of combining lightning damage for some effective attacks. If you are a bow user, then this Artifact is definitely worth paying attention to.

Boltcaster brings a huge damage boost to an already powerful weapon. Bow users with precise aim can rely on it to inflict significant damage to enemies and farm New World Coins quickly.

But my concern is that the potentially high damage could make game balancing difficult. Because the player has little room to fight back after being knocked unconscious. Players may become frustrated when they are stunned and unable to react.

Vengeance

Vengeance is a Life Staff Artifact that is an amazing addition for healers. When you successfully heal someone, it increased your damage to the enemy by 1% for 10 seconds, stacking up to 20 times.

This means that if you’re an active healer, you can quickly rack up significant damage bonuses. But the problem is that this artifact may not appeal to every healer due to its excessive focus on damage output.

But its possible Vengeance has additional unique advantages that make it more attractive, similar to Abyss. Regardless, this Artifact will have a big impact on players’ gameplay.

Gladiator

Gladiator is a Round Shield with unique abilities. When a melee opponent hits you, it causes bleed, providing an interesting twist to combat. Of course, its perks make this shield even more enticing, including Diminishing Shield Bash and Fortifying Shield Rush.

We should note that blood effect of this artifact is only effective on melee attacks and has no effect on ranged attackers. This narrows its usefulness, especially in games with various weapons and play style combinations.

In solo PVE, the blood effect might have some utility, but it’s not a game changer. In group PVE, you won’t get hit in the melee very often, so this perk becomes effectively useless. This also implies that Gladiator is primarily designed for PVP.

However, we don’t currently know if the blood effect applies when you block an attack or only when you take damage. This difference may significantly affect the practicality of this Round Shield. While its blocking ability may not be as good as other shield options, it still offers more protection than most weapons.

Quickdraw Gloves

Quickdraw Gloves are new light armor gloves that provide a brief half-second of immunity from damage when you swap weapons and have a 12-second cooldown. While the short duration and cooldown may affect the gameplay experience, the potential to eliminate damage is a game changer.

Defensive light builds are already strong, and with Quickdraw Gloves, players can further enhance their survivability. This change has the potential to make them dominant in PVP.

We should note that timing is crucial to this artifact. Because a well-executed exchange can protect you from devastating attacks. If players can master the timing of this artifact, it has the potential to be a game-changing addition to your kit. It’s a high-risk, high-reward choice that can either save your life or leave you vulnerable.

Conjectures About Other Artifacts

While we haven’t yet seen all the stats and details for the remaining four Artifacts, per the developer update, we know there will be two Boot Artifacts, one Leg Artifact, and one Ice Gauntlet Artifact. The possibilities are interesting, and we look forward to seeing how these artifacts will affect the game.

With New World Season 4 about to be released, the introduction of 8 new Artifacts promises to bring exciting changes to the game. From Boltcaster to the unique abilities of Quickdraw Gloves, players have a lot to look forward to.
