Artifacts

Artifacts are a powerful set of items in Clicker Heroes 2. Just like Equipment, they come in 6 categories, which are the same. You can think of Artifacts as Equipment but in the scope of Worlds over an Ascension or Transcension (check this).

Each Artifact has 3 variables. Artifacts are to be unlocked one-by-one and upgraded, using Forge Cores. Artifact Level depends on how many times you have upgraded the Artifact, starting at level 1 upon creation.
 * Stat: This is the player statistic for the Artifact to improve, which is a similar list to Equipment modifiers.
 * Power per Level: The value to linearly increase the Current Multiplier by, for each level.
 * Current Multiplier: This is the magnitude of which the statistic is to be improved - multiplied by. This increases based on the Artifact's level.

Artifacts can be equipped and unequipped at any time to optimise their benefits. Additionally, you can destroy Artifacts in exchange for a large sum of Rubies.
