This idea is absolutely glorious.

It’s just. Amazing. It gives me a reason to get BACK into treasure charts that isn’t trying to obtain the amazing acrimony of stat resets. I love lore, and I love rewards. I fucking love this idea.

Yet another banger from you, Crimsonpants! (I think I’ll call you crimpants to make it easier to remember + type out)

I feel like the artifact chests should be restricted to uncommon and higher rarity charts. And only retrieved on the very last dig, or for exotics and legendary you can get them on the 2 before the final chart place.

There is one CRUCIAL detail missing in this suggestion.
I want to be able to put these artifacts up around my captain’s quarters.

What is a collection if I can’t show it off?

it’s been brought up that the hover text of weapons and armor fould be an issue for the density of lore, but i would suggest just adding a new page in the menu or something if that sounds like a problem

destiny 2 has a pretty similar way of foreshadowing and storytelling to this and what they have is flavor text and then a screen for the lore


(in this instance you would hold a button to open the lore and scroll)

i’m not suggesting it be done in exactly this way, but giving an example of how the aforementioned hover text issue could be resolved

Right right, I spit out a huge amount of text that wouldn’t fit but it was more like a ‘we could use regular items to tell small stories and flesh out the history of kingdoms!’

I just went a bit overboard, but the destiny 2 way fits far better in a flavor text, because my ‘lore dump’ also doesn’t really tell the average player what they are supposed to do with the item.

I still strongly believe in the idea though! Lore! World Expanding!

This is something I thought of! Yet, depeding on the number of collections, this might be too much to ask just yet.

Wow, a feature that will make me actually want to go treasure hunting and not ignore all my treasure charts. This is an amazing suggestion, you really outdid yourself, hope Vetex at least considers this.

Honestly, I could see it be a thing where there’s a bunch of shelves, racks, and whatever else around your ship that you can interact with and pick an artifact you own to place at that location.

Yeah, but at this stage that much extra work might be extremely unappealing to Vetex. I’ll keep the idea- at its core, as the most simple as it can be, and future additions can come in the chance its actually added.

bro has been cooking for so long he got perfect cooking skill

RedLeggings back at it again with another W

The only thing I feel like I could add to this is how it could be used as a great way to earn Arcspheres and other Arcanium items that don’t correlate to one of your Magics. Arcspheres are mainly just visual changes, but stuff like Acid Cannons could fulfill niche uses that Water or Wind Cannons can’t do.

Crimonpants out here giving even more constantly banger suggestions, from the Sea Monster Bounty Board to this, even designing his own UI for the concept. I would love to see this in-game.

definitely a ton of quality and effort put into this, i just don’t know how i feel about it being added since i’m a completionist but also a hoarder, i wouldn’t know whether to fill all these out or not

If you could put these artifacts up as decoration then who WOULDN’T want to fill it out?
Imagine having this gigantic post-brig ship with shelves and shelves of relics from various places around the war seas and probably some stuff from outside the war seas.

nobody’s telling me that wouldn’t be awesome.
Having a giant pile of gold coins is one thing but priceless artifacts are another!
