In Sons of the Forest, the Artifact stands as a multifunctional device, crucial for survival and base defense. This guide details the assembly, locating the pieces, and the practical use of the Artifact.
How to assemble the artifact in Sons of the Forest
Following the 1.0 update, players can now fully assemble the Artifact. This involves collecting all six pieces, a task hinted at by a note in the Grind Trap Cave, and combining them to unlock their full potential.
The Artifact's functionalities include:
- Teleportation: Construct a teleporter using the building notebook, requiring 8 skulls, 50 bones, and 33 rocks. Place the teleporter, hold the Artifact, and press Mouse 1 to activate. This creates a return point, enabling instant teleportation to this location.
- Structural Enhancement: By loading the Artifact with Solafite, it can convert structures to gold, doubling their durability and making them more resistant to mutant attacks. For instance, a log's strength increases from 300 to 600.
Leveraging the Artifact effectively can significantly enhance your strategic options in the game, from rapid movement across the island to fortifying your base against mutant onslaughts. In my experience, using the Artifact is the fastest method to move around the island of Sons of the Forest (certainly faster than things like the Golf cart).
Can you use the artifact to kill enemies in Sons of the Forest?
It's important to note that the Artifact cannot directly eliminate mutants and cannibals in Sons of the Forest. Its primary uses are for teleportation and structural reinforcement, not as a weapon. To activate the teleportation feature, switch the device to teleporter mode (distinct from other operational modes).
