Comprehensive Guide to Unlocking All Artifacts in Risk of Rain 2.

How to Unlock an Artifact

1. Reach Sky Meadow: Progress through the game until you reach the Sky Meadow stage (stage 5). This is where you can unlock Artifacts.
2. Locate the Compound Generator: Once you are in Sky Meadow, look for the Compound Generator. It is located below the map. The Compound Generator is a device that allows you to input the Artifact Code.
3. Input the Artifact Code: Use the Compound Generator to input the specific Artifact Code you want to unlock. The Artifact Code consists of a combination of symbols: square (■), circle (●), triangle (▲), and diamond (♦). The order in which you need to input these symbols is square, circle, triangle, diamond.
4. Interact with the Laptop: After entering the correct Artifact Code into the Compound Generator, interact with the laptop nearby. This will activate the unlocking process.
5. Enter Bulwark’s Ambry: Once you have interacted with the laptop, a portal to the trial for the unlocked Artifact will appear. This portal will lead you to Bulwark’s Ambry, where you can complete the trial and obtain the Artifact.
6. Defeat Enemies and Collect Artifact Keys: Upon entering Bulwark’s Ambry, you will encounter various enemies. Defeat these enemies, and they will drop an item called the Artifact Key. Collect the Artifact Key.
7. Place Artifact Keys in the Central Sphere: Once you have obtained the Artifact Key, locate the central sphere in Bulwark’s Ambry. Place the Artifact Key into the sphere. Repeat this step for each Artifact Key you have collected.
8. Unlock the Artifact: After placing the required number of Artifact Keys into the central sphere, the sphere will shatter, revealing the unlocked Artifact. You can now pick up the Artifact as if it were an item, and by doing so, you will unlock the corresponding achievement.
