This mod aims to buff all artifacts in line with max enchantment created weapons and armors so when you find that sweet artifact youll consider using it instead of just putting it on your mantelpiece.

THINGS TO NOTE:
-This mod was created with the intention of being used with it's sister mod(Listed below) "Enchantment Balance Overhaul". This is obviously not REQUIRED but makes for a much better experience if you use both.
-Artifacts are not supposed to be better than all weapons in the game, but should be a side-grade. Ive done my best to make them attractive alternatives and Im more than sure Ill be rebalancing them in the future.
-If you have a suggestion regarding an item I missed or something youd like to see changed/add PLEASE comment and let me know! Remember to rate me if you like it! (Keeps me going!)
