Artifact Selection Feedback

valkos

Hi guys

I had some great help in a previous posting of mine, regarding the DC artifact, well I've finally got it today.

So planned ahead to the next x 2 refinement I'm trying to nail down my artifacts selection and could use your experience / insight if I'm choosing wisely. Here are some high level stats to start with:

HP 146k
Power 5.4k
Recovery 3.2k
Dmg resist 54.8%
Resist ignore 62%

I'm have the following:

Sigil of oathbound
Horn of Valhalla (I have set bonus)
Waters of elthzad
Bruenor helm

I'm thinking of dropping waters for the sigil of devoted and bruenor helm for token of chromatic storm (more HP)

What do you guys think?. Currently the Ines I have now are purple and item level 96, so I really want your help before progressing any further.

Thanks.

You need more Power. Like, a lot more Power. Not exactly sure what all gives Power, but load up on them. Heart of the Red Dragon, Sigil of the Devoted and a couple more with Power.

Here is a link that lists the Artifacts and their tooltips: neverwinter.gamepedia.com/Artifact

Hi

Thanks for the link, I was thinking about the heart of the dragon (white version) for the extra HP and to help boost power, take the guild boon for power, I can't remember at present if I'd loose armour penetration though.

Hi

I kinda keep changing my mind, what do you think about this combo:

Sigil of guardian equipped for deflection
Oghma free movement
Heart of the white dragon
Horn of Valhalla

Don't stack Defense nor Deflect, it's pointless. Stack HP and Power, optionally Recovery if you're short.

Would say go:

Sigil of devoted
wheel of elements
horn of valhalla
sigil of oathbound

defense you'll have decent amount once have higher enchantment and your using a AC cloak, since using the Valhalla set.

Not sure what your goals are, but my artifacts are all focused on HP, Power, ArmPen, Crit, Recovery, Defense, AP gain, Combat Advantage. All four have some combination of those. I do not waste any slots with things like life steal or deflect. I currently use Sigils of Devotion and GWF. Tiamat's orb and Black Ice Beholder. DC sigil is always equipped.

I run Sigil of DC horn of Valhalla blackice beholder and sigil of the op. I swap the black ice set and valhall set for gond in PvP.

I run Forgehammer of Gond as my main with both "versions" of artificers persuasion. I stacked recovery on my pet so when I hit my artifact, I get 5 sec of 50% damage reduction (a little over 1/3 of my art cool down) as well as my recovery goes to over 200% and my Action Point Gain is around 170%. This all allows me to be within 2 seconds of perma bubble if I need to go that way and keeping Shield of Faith constant is a non issue. Also, I am able to constantly spam Templars so I can stack my HP (in mSVA I can keep around 1.8mil stacked)...

Temp HP from TW doesn't stack. You either get more Temp HP than you had or TW gives you nothing.

I use Tome of Ascendance, Eye of the giant, Sigil of the devoted, and horn of Valhalla(set)... Been debating about switching out the Valhalla set for orcus set... Need to do some testing in preview before hand though and see how well it works.
