Archero 2 Artifacts Guide 2026
How Archero 2 artifacts, stars, codex sets, wish acquisition, and set thresholds work, with links to all 46 artifacts and 13 codex sets.
By the CAPPED Editorial Team · How we review guides
Quick answer
Artifacts are a permanent Wish Token collection system with individual star growth and codex-set thresholds. An artifact can reach 15 stars, each star adds 50% of its base stats, and the wish system guarantees a Legendary or Mythic artifact after 100 wishes without one. The live CAPPED catalog contains 46 artifacts and 13 codex sets.
How artifacts work
- Artifacts are obtained through wishes using Wish Tokens.
- If 100 wishes pass without a Legendary or Mythic artifact, the pity guarantees one.
- Artifacts can reach 15 stars, and every star adds 50% of the artifact's base stats.
- Artifacts belong to fixed codex sets with their own activation and star-threshold bonuses.
Where Wish Tokens come from
- Sky Tower
- Tasks
- Events
- Purchases
The pity counts artifact rarity, not the exact artifact you want. Plan around guaranteed rarity without promising a specific member.
How to choose the next upgrade
- Compare the guaranteed personal-stat gain from another star with the next reachable codex threshold.
- A missing member can be valuable when it activates a set, but the right choice depends on the exact set bonus and token cost.
- Do not rank artifacts from rarity alone; inspect the individual effect and the set ladder.
Use the complete catalog
The artifact shelf contains individual pages for every documented artifact plus one page for each codex set. Use the rarity and set filters to find the next threshold you can realistically complete.
