This is the first version of a tier list of the artifacts in SOULS as I know that many of you need a first guideline which artifacts are good. I will refine that list here and also make a ranking for each hero in the hero builds section!
If you want to add anything, please comment below
There might also some missing and some I haven’t tested much which I will do in the next days so please only refer to this as a very first draft version!
Also, I will update the hero tier list with the artifact soon, I am not sure how I will weight in the artifacts but some heroes profit a ton of them and I want to reflect it there as well.
Tier SGreat tank artifact that helps restore health, especially on tanks that actually deal damage.
Tier AQuite alright in terms of extra damage but not triggering that much overall and most of the time when yout trigger it you#re halfway there.
Tier S+Incredible cc on tank.
Tier A+Great scaler for cc.
Tier -not ranked yet.
Tier B+For specific setups that revive quite well.
Tier -not ranked yet.
Tier ANice buffer but very particular setup requirement with the same row.
Tier SGreat for any hero that can use the effects.
Tier B+Super powerful if you can make it trigger but that only works in certain team setups.
Tier -not ranked yet.
Tier B+Solid to break through tough frontlines.
Tier AGreat auto heal in setups that suffer cc a lot and can cleanse them.
Tier BSounds great but you don't really want your allies die for that small effect.
Tier A+Great on the heroes that leverage dodge effects.
Tier SIncredible for any damage unit that deals aoe damage.
Tier SIn the right setup this will carry your team and turn your support hero that cleanse into a battery.

Tier -not ranked yet.
Tier S+THE red artifact for damage dealers.
Tier A+Great extra damage at the end of the day.
Tier AFor critters really powerful.
Tier S+Best epic artifact that will basically be useful on any hero.

Tier BAlright but the effect is overall not the best espcially as it won#t work in the wearer itself.

Tier B+Okay-ish but I don't see the point too much here.
Tier BIs alright as fillger.

Tier Areally great starter to fill.
Tier Agreat for dodge heroes.
Tier Anice for burst damage dealer.

Tier Aone of the best blue artifacts in SOULS.
