Artifacts were one of the pillars of every Phantom's power. Sure, unlike Initial Gene and Nexus, the artifact usually appeared much later.
Most Phantoms were Artificial Ones, which meant they had to spend a lot of time and resources to find the right artifact.
It was all about Evolution Tree and Initial Gene, they had to accept the Artifact so the Phantom could use it and develop it.
That was one of the advantages Naturalborn Phantoms had over Artificial Ones because almost all Artifacts matched them.
Artifacts had different Rarity Levels, anyone who knew Dead Lands well enough was aware of that.
Strangely enough, finding a Second Rarity Level Artifact was much easier than developing a First Rarity Artifact, because a lot of conditions had to be met.
However, with some circumstances and luck, an evolved artifact could be a better solution.
