Core Changes to Artifact Weapons

  • Accelerated Acquisition: Unlike original Legion where unlocking artifacts took time, you'll likely obtain your class artifact much earlier in the leveling process.
  • Simplified Progression: The original complex trait tree is being streamlined for the fast-paced Remix format
  • Enhanced Power Scaling: Artifacts will scale more aggressively to match the accelerated power curve of Remix events
  • Gem Socket Integration: Artifacts will feature multiple gem sockets to align with the Remix's focus on socket-heavy gear
  • All Appearances Unlockable: Previously time-gated appearances (like Mage Tower skins) will be obtainable during the event
  • Cross-Spec Access: You'll likely be able to earn artifacts for all your class specializations more easily

Unique Remix Features

  • Bronze Currency Upgrades: Special artifact enhancements purchasable with Bronze currency
  • Legacy Appearance Variants: New color variants of classic artifact appearances exclusive to Remix
  • Power-Scaling Mechanic: Similar to the Cloak of Infinite Potential from MoP Remix, artifacts will have some form of infinite progression
