Methods of Obtaining Artifacts in High Roller


All of these used to be ground loot but now some have been moved into containers in their respective rooms, the drop chance remains.

Hoard
Hoard Weapon/Armor/Accessories Drop Rate is 20.5% Uncommon,68.65% Rare,10% Epic, 0.75% Legendary, 0.1% Unique
20/156 unique drops on the hoard are Artifacts
12.821% chance if you hit a unique you get an Artifact
So overall the Hoard has a 0.0128% chance to drop an Artifact per hit

Skull Key Room
Skull Key room weapon's Drop Rate is 37.5% Epic, 52.5% Legendary, 10% Unique
20/43 unique drops are Artifacts
46.512% chance if you hit a unique it will be an Artifact
So overall the Skull room has a 4.6512% chance to drop an Artifact per hit

Mystic Gem Room
Mystic Gem room weapon spawn's Drop Rate is 75% Epic, 21% Legendary, 4% Unique
20/43 unique drops at the mystic gem room are Artifacts
46.512% chance if you hit a unique it will be an Artifact
So overall the Mystic Gem has a 1.8605% chance to drop an Artifact per hit

Dual Boss Treasure Room
Double Boss room ground loot's Drop Rate is 91.5% Epic, 8% Legendary, 0.5% Unique. (for the weapon)
20/43 unique drops at the Dual Boss Treasure room are Artifacts
46.512% chance if you hit a unique it will be an Artifact
So overall the Dual Boss Treasure (weapon) room has a 0.233% chance to drop an Artifact per hit

Inferno Bosses (Lich)
Lich's Weapon/Armor/Accessories Drop Rate is 91.5% Epic, 7.5% Legendary, 1% Unique
Different bosses have different amounts of artifacts to total items on the table
6/106 unique drops on Lich are Artifacts
5.6% chance if you hit a unique it will be an Artifact
So technically 0.056% chance per loot roll for an artifact
But the lich rolls this drop table 3 times
So overall the Lich has a 0.1698% chance to drop an Artifact per kill
Keep in mind warlord only has 2 loot table rolls for gear.

Math for "At Least One in N trials"
For the chance at an Artifact appearing after multiple trials is

(1 - ((V)^N)) x100 = C
V is chance of failure, N is number of trials - aka, how many times you "hit" or roll the event, and C is your answer in percentage format of getting 1 or more Artifacts

You can also write V as (1 - P), P being the probability of the event happening
(1 - ((1-P)^N)) x100 = C

(What the formula is doing is taking your chance of not getting an artifact x times in a row and subtracting it from 100%, this formula does NOT calculate your chance of getting 1 artifact, it calculates your chance of getting 1 OR MORE artifacts)

Example
(1 - ((1055/1075)^15)) x100 = C is the formula for 15 runs at the mystic gem room,
After 15 tries you chance of getting 1 or more Artifacts from the room would be 24.55%.

15 runs of skull key would be (1 - ((410/430)^15)) x100 = C
51.052% of getting one or more Artifacts

15 runs of Lich would be (1 - ((10591/10600)^15)) x100 = C
1.266% of getting one or more Artifacts

Math for "R in N trials"

(N! / R! (N-R)!) (P^R) ((1-P)^(N-R)) * 100

The probably of getting a SPECIFIC number of artifacts R (number of artifacts)
in N trials with
P as the probability

Example
Getting exactly 2 artifacts from the gem room in 18 trials would be

(18! / 2! (18-2)!) ((20/1075) ^ 2) ((1055/1075)^16) * 100 = 3.921%

Question about the datamined templates
Cappuchino | Posted on Feb 9, 2025 at 3:56 am

As of this date (02/09/2025), the top of the "Artifacts" page relays that the information below it is up to date, but it isn't in some instances. For example, "Kuma's Fang" no longer adds the 15(1.0) magic damage to it's attacks, and instead just adds 15(1.0) magic damage to the character.

Since the templates you use to render the artifact tooltip are linked to datamined information, could it be that some of those files are outdated? I'm not very experienced in media wiki so this confused me.

Sur | Posted on Feb 10, 2025 at 12:55 am

Artifact descriptions is actually the only part of the page that isn't datamined/automatically updated. If stuff is stealth-changed by IM it may be missed unfortunately. I'll remove the "Up to date" indicator entirely from this page so that it doesn't ever spread false confidence.

Specific to your note on Kuma's Fang, your certain that holding it + dagger makes the dagger also deal damage? Do you have a clip by chance you can link? Also feel free to join the wiki discord :)

Cappuchino | Posted on Feb 14, 2025 at 5:49 pm

If I understand what "Gain +15(1.0) magic damage" correctly means, I don't *believe* it would add the magic damage as attack damage to the off-hand weapon, but I'm positive (if the text in quotes does what it should) it adds the damage to magic damage from casts with a crystal ball and perks/skills (for example warlock's dark reflection). I saw a video of a build showcase where that was the point of the build, but they didn't attack dummies to prove it 100%.

If I ever get rich enough to be able to buy an artifact I'll try to show it on a dummy c:

Does the Siphon effect only apply to damage done with the blade itself or can someone dual wielding benefit from damaging with the other hands weapon?

Unique mobs no longer 100% drop chance
Kaidoku | Posted on Sep 14, 2024 at 12:14 am

I just found the Frostweaver spider after searching for a few days for unique mobs and it had only common reinforced gloves on it , so they are no longer 100% drop chance from the unique monster anymore for their respective gear after the patch on 9/12/2024

Brecher | Posted on Sep 16, 2024 at 5:08 pm

Correct, the drops are now 10% but the spawn chance of the unique enemies went up 10x. Droptables will be updated soon™
