How The Artifact Works In Episode: Revenant

The Slayer Baron Apothecary Satchel is unlocked through the starting mission in Episode: Revenant, which should start immediately upon login. All XP you earn throughout the episode will increase the Artifact’s level, unlocking additional Artifact perks while increasing your account’s Power level. The more XP you earn, the more perks and bonus Power you’ll earn.

For the first two acts, the Artifact has 30 perks to choose from, broken up into five columns. You can find your Artifact in the character tab, the same place you equip weapons. The Artifact can only have 12 perks active at a time, separated by columns:

  • Column One: Unlocked by default.
  • Column Two: Requires 3 unlocked passives from the previous column.
  • Column Three: Requires 5 unlocked passives from previous columns.
  • Column Four: Requires 7 unlocked passives from previous columns.
  • Column Five: Requires 10 unlocked passives from previous columns.

Resetting Your Artifact
