1. Merry Christmas and happy holidays to those of you celebrating! 🙂
   As always, keep in mind that tier lists are highly subjective and not set in stone at all!

2. To be honest with you amigo, I think GS should be SS tier, getting hit for 8.5k in mid gear is insane and the fact you can’t get away from it.

3. Does Vengeance make void blade usable?

   Balas

4. yes want a armor One as well for pvpve.

5. Bolt is S tier in PvP. Im often 3shot by Boltcaster & im playin with Feaver +200Con.

6. I'd love to see one of these for the armour items

7. Nice tier list Duke!
   With the good artifact I can make strong builds
   With the bad artifacts I can make meme builds
   With Gladiator…well…. a new skin? 😅

8. Syncretic bow > Boltcaster by a long mile which makes Boltcaster C/D class in a lot of people’s opinions including mine. Shirking Lightning and the passive are useless 80% of the time while you’re missing out on runeglass/ attunement effects.

9. i Personally don't agree on Mjolnir, it's still offer the most single hit damage out of all melee classes ( PVP ), i play Mjolnir + GA in light full lightning dmg.
   I can confidently say that it's the only light counter to the heavy meta in arena.
   No hammer can reach the same effective damage in any scenario, and of course, don't bother using gavel, you will run it without using those 2 perks, you are not missing out any damage anyway.
   I think it's bottom B tier, since it's also effective with other weapon, you just need to play it on his strenght.
   And there is NO WAY the butcher is not A tier, absolutely insane for an heavy sns in arena/open world, criminally underrated.

10. I don’t think I’ve been killed by any other artifact more than Serenity. The butcher and pestilence I think would both be A tier. A fair amount of players I have seen use them. The butcher I ran into a full blown tank at a race last night that must have been entirely CON and was able to help CC using the butcher.

    I think the vengeance is a bit new but I’ve been trying to farm. The new gems allowing for focus to be a main trait in any weapon with plagued crits can turn anyone into a nuisance for any back line. Keen beacon and maybe magnetic gloves on a great axe will allow that player to heal with the passive and apply plagued crit constantly. I could see it being added into a group for diversity.

11. Gladiator is so trash the stats on a regular round shield are significantly better then the shitty bleed that dosnt stack

12. Warning! Long list below!

    Finisher: – No comment, absolutely BIS in almost all areas.
    Scorpion: – I would say its effectiveness in PvE is less important overall vs PvP. I still think its one of the best additions regardless.
    Serenity: – Again, no comment. Simply awesome.
    Deep Freeze: – Its pretty awesome in most pure mage builds. Definitely an S tier contender.
    Boltcaster: – Fairly strong in PvP, but not entirely sure about PvE. Requires hard investment into boosting lightning damage and has situational perks. I would consider it to be around B tier.
    Abyss: – Another strong melee option for mages. Its utility and strength in both PvP and PvE cannot be understated. S tier for sure.
    Lifetaker: – It lends itself as a powerful off-hand utility weapon for all ranged weapons in all scenarios. Not fantastic by itself but meant to be a side piece for your ranged weapon of choice.
    Pestilence: – You run this artifact if you want to focus primarily on plaguing groups in all scenarios. It is still THE anti-healing weapon of choice even after buffs to plague-related perks
    The Wall: – Does best at what its meant to do. I would say A tier at least. The downside, while rarely ever an issue, still bites on occasion.
    The Butcher: – You would be surprised how many people run this in PvP. If they don't have another artifact being used for an offhand, this is what is usually used. At least A tier.
    Inferno: – Definitely used for melee-oriented FS builds with incinerate/flamethrower.
    Michael: – One of the most versatile shields to use for PvP. Kite shields are making a small comeback and this one is a strong contender for many flail builds. At least B tier material.
    Freya's Francisca: – While niche for making use of the less popular throwing tree, it is still the best hatchet for that purpose. B tier for sure.
    Mjolnir: – Mighty gavel is so useless and yet they put a useless perk on top of it. Its only better in PvE vs mobs that hammer is already strong against. C tier is fine but its definitely D tier IMO.
    Odo: – A bit underated IMO. Its still a good choice in Lifesteal builds for healers. The unique perk is extremely niche and makes it less desirable over others, but still solid as a weapon. C tier
    The Mechanic: – This would be good if using the Trapper tree was viable. In most cases its not.
    Vengance: – A Lifestaff is only used to heal. Any damage applied is secondary. Trying to buff its damage when its not viable in the first place is futile. Arguably the weakest artifact in the game.
    Gladiator: – The most disappointing of shields. It assumes that you will be using a SnS with it considering the perks which are also mediocre. No base damage increase = not even worth glancing at. You pick a round shield to begin with to do more damage. For being named Gladiator, it leaves much to be desired in any combat situation.

13. They should definitely remove the cooldown on Odo's defense, to make it heal on every blocked attacks. That's what gonna revolutionize tanks gameplay.

    Balas

14. I have not tested it, but wouldn't the increase in damage given by Vengeance increase the healing on things like Blissful Touch and Sacred Ground, which state healing is based on weapon damage? Because if that is the case, maybe we could see a increase in healing power too, which would definitely make it useful.

    If not, then compared to a regular BiS Life Staff, it can have 3 excellent perks + Enchanted, so it is better… But barely. I think one would be better off with Lifetaker as a secondary weapon.

    Balas

15. For me lifetaker, deepfreeze,serenity, finisher, pestilence, butcher all S tier . I have the scorp spear but haven’t used it to give it a score

    Balas

16. I think they need to slow down on the release of artifacts the newest string of armor ones for example are very uninspiring. I cant be displaced. I am faster for longer. Very boring in design frankly. Maybe they can give them unique effects that you can activate that do something actually cool. example On heartrune activation gain 100% haste or something actually powerful to prompt someone to play with it.

17. Thanks for the breakdown. Tier-rankings are indeed subjective, but it's good info to have when judging for yourself. As a mostly-solo Expedition NON-enjoyer, Dark Matter is difficult to come by, and this helps when thinking about what to allocate Artifact upgrade limited materials towards.

    Also, this is a much better video than the last few, in that you are managing to suppress the obvious Existential Dread and Hopelessness About The Future Of New World from your voice and underlying energy! Thanks! Most of us also share this feeling cough 5-months = HALF A YEAR of no projected interesting content! cough but there needs to be a bare minimum of Hopeium-huffing every day in order to find motivation to even log on and do Dailies. Cheers.

18. Odo sns light… trip to eruption combo.. destroys healers and mages,,,,,butcher is cracked in war and OPR..

    Balas

19. Cool list… I would be interested in your thoughts on best perks to add to each

    Balas

20. The Abyss gives you a PvP OPR mage build that is arguably the best by far, even more then using a BB. It truly allows you to be a solo hunter putting charge and bburnout together along with reap.

    Balas

21. Boltcaster is a B at best. Shirking Lightning and bolt are both very situational and bolt only works on basic attacks. Its more a PVE bow then anything and even then that is questionable. If bolt worked on ALL attacks, yea it would me worthy of an A rating

    Balas

22. You mentioned Lifetaker being useful for ranged players, like healers, but what about paired with say a musket? I've been running musket with finisher recently and I'm curious if you think Lifetaker could be a better option. I primarily play the open world PvP modes for reference. Thanks!

    Balas

23. People still don't understand whwt the artifacts are, and if it noes not boost the current meta usage of the weapon it is considered bad.
    But if the artifacts were just the BIS for every weapon it would render the existing weapons useless…
    Therefor many of the artifacts are there to boost strange and alternate builds, have a very specific purpose, , or are simply good offhands the enhance another BIS weapon.

24. agree that serinity is for pve and braindead defiance stance hvy spams. single shirking element on any gs will overscale the damage from damn serinity if u have more than 1 iq

    Balas

25. Not agreeing much on Butcher honestly..succesfully ran that one for a good while in pvp. I suppose these kinda lidts are somewhat subjective for each person depending on how and what they build

    Balas

26. Not agree on the Odo ! (Healer POV)
    And i think most healer are wrong to not using it , I litteraly destroy and lifesteal so much with it making easy to 2v1 ; the flail pair with a shield is solid ++ but you need to not get a traditional round shiel ; Refreshing , Keenly jagged , Enchated on it for exemple, make your damage back and getting nice life stealing…S tier for me !

27. Boltcaster is S tier
