Artifacts Overhauled

This mod aims to rework and rebalance a large number of artifacts in the game.


We aimed to make the item pool more consistent by reworking heavily underperforming artifacts and weakening some of the most powerful ones.

Healing items were weakened to make campfires a more valuable location to pick and to compensate for the general power increase of the item pool. Some starter items were moved to common and rare rarities so that archetypes are less restricted to the character creation at the start of runs.
