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.
