You will get a stack of 2 White Phial and when consumed this value will not change, this is done in order to prevent it from been removed from the player favorite menu, thus the potion can have a permanent hotkey.

When consumed, the White Phial will no longer become a misc object in your inventory, which also prevent some vanilla bugs.
The 2 copies are exploit-free, while you can actually move then individually, having only one in inventory will remove the permanent hotkey functionality and drinking then separately will have no additional effect because the effect has a shared cooldown. You also need both "copies" in your inventory when switching the potion type in alchemy tables.

Visual Improvements
Visual effects from Visual Animated Enchants - VAE have been added to many unique weapons, give an endorsement there if you like it. VAE can still be used alongside to benefit from it`s vanilla enchantments effects and other features but have to be load before Artifacts & Uniques. The meshes and textures can be overwritten and if you use any VAE optional file, they will be automatically applied here.
Thnx to L3st4t, Sinobol and Guilaster for allowing me to use the assets.
Notes & Troubleshooting
- Artifacts are no longer leveled, as any item that had a different version based on the player level will now have a fixed level.
- Some Items not showing description is intentional, it means that these items can be further enchanted, as they have been given only an innate ability. Whenever this is the case, the description on this page will indicate so, if not, it might be a compatibility issue.
- Equipment effects do not show in magic tab is by design, some description would be too long or inaccurate and would clutter the tab, it`s a side effect of having more complex effects.
- Items are not working properly or as the description states might have a few causes.
a) Compatibility issue, as you have another mod overwriting this item or one of it`s effects, solution: Fix load order.
b) A rare vanilla bug that prevent a script from running when weapons and armors are equipped, this can happen when leaving an item in display for a long time or when installing the mod on an existing save, solution: you have to reset your weapon, luckily this is pretty simple, just drop it on the ground or place it in a container then pick it up again.
c) Another mod that force you to unequip and equip items via a script, as equipping items this way may cause some of it`s effects to not apply, this is noticeable with Campfire remove gear in tend feature, solution: disable such feature and reequip the gear manually.
d) I messed up something (i hope not though), solution: please report the bug as detailed as possible and i`ll try to fix ASAP.
- No new items were added, all changes were made to existing vanilla records, some had it`s name changed though.
- Overpowered Items are not intentional for sure, i made my best to make then all balanced while useful in regards to their lore and how hard are they to get, while trying to prevent any sort of exploits with their unique effects. In case i missed something or you disagree with any changes, suggestion are welcome.
- Quick access to all items for testing or whatever purpose is possible with console commands, type help artifacts and look for the spell "ADDArtifacts", then select the player and use the command to add this spell as following addspell xxx (replace xxx with the editor ID you found with the help command).
Compatibility
- Fully compatible with any mod that do not change unique items or it`s effects.
- Weapons Armor Clothing and Clutter Fixes: Compatible, this mod already forward most of it`s fixes and keywords without creating a dependency, for further changes, mostly related to the armor swap feature for the Shroud armor and the Arch-Mage Robes, a compatibility patch is also available in the download section.
- Morrowloot Ultimate: Compatible, many of the new items stats are based on it. Just make sure to load it before Artifacts & Uniques.
- Summermyst/ Wintermyst: Compatible, while they do not change unique items, they do apply some fixes to magic effects used by then, thus they must be loaded before Artifacs & Uniques or said effects will be reverted to the vanilla form. These fixes are not needed anymore.
- ArteFakes: Patch provided in the download section.
- Unique Uniques: Patch provided in the download section.
- Legacy of the Dragonborn: Patch provided in the download section.
- Zim's Immersive Artifacts: Main mod is not compatible, the Thane Weapons weapons modular version is compatible.
- Reliquary of Myth - Artifact Overhaul: Not compatible, both mods alter the same content.
- Visual Animated Enchantments - VAE: It`s assets are included in Artifacts and Uniques, VAE esp needs to be load before this mod and the meshes/ textures can be overwritten.

Releasing the bow when not fully draw still release the light projectile that serve to illuminate the area for a short time and cost no enchantment charges (the enchantment only take effect if the bow is used with it`s own ammunition, equipping another arrow type will disable the enchantment until you reequip Ethereal arrows, but this can be advantageous to benefit from the bow high damage rating and save the enchantment charges).

. I'd like it to have the power of healing: Completely Restore Health, cure Poisons and Diseases.
You will get a stack of 2 White Phial and when consumed this value will not change, this is done in order to prevent it from been removed from the player favorite menu, thus the potion can have a permanent hotkey.
Trying to consume the potion while it is still refilling will have no effect and you will get a message saying so, another message will appear when the bottle is refilled.
When consumed, the White Phial will no longer become a misc object in your inventory, which also prevent some vanilla bugs.
The 2 copies are exploit-free, while you can actually move then individually, having only one in inventory will remove the permanent hotkey functionality and drinking then separately will have no additional effect because the effect has a shared cooldown. You also need both "copies" in your inventory when switching the potion type in alchemy tables.

VAE can still be used alongside to benefit from it`s vanilla enchantments effects and other features but have to be load before Artifacts & Uniques. The meshes and textures can be overwritten and if you use any VAE optional file, they will be automatically applied here.
Thnx to L3st4t, Sinobol and Guilaster for allowing me to use the assets.
Notes & Troubleshooting
- Artifacts are no longer leveled, as any item that had a different version based on the player level will now have a fixed level.
- Some Items not showing description is intentional, it means that these items can be further enchanted, as they have been given only an innate ability. Whenever this is the case, the description on this page will indicate so, if not, it might be a compatibility issue.
- Equipment effects do not show in magic tab is by design, some description would be too long or inaccurate and would clutter the tab, it`s a side effect of having more complex effects.
- Items are not working properly or as the description states might have a few causes.
a) Compatibility issue, as you have another mod overwriting this item or one of it`s effects, solution: Fix load order.
b) A rare vanilla bug that prevent a script from running when weapons and armors are equipped, this can happen when leaving an item in display for a long time or when installing the mod on an existing save, solution: you have to reset your weapon, luckily this is pretty simple, just drop it on the ground or place it in a container then pick it up again.
c) Another mod that force you to unequip and equip items via a script, as equipping items this way may cause some of it`s effects to not apply, this is noticeable with Campfire remove gear in tend feature, solution: disable such feature and reequip the gear manually.
d) I messed up something (i hope not though), solution: please report the bug as detailed as possible and i`ll try to fix ASAP.
- No new items were added, all changes were made to existing vanilla records, some had it`s name changed though.
- Overpowered Items are not intentional for sure, i made my best to make then all balanced while useful in regards to their lore and how hard are they to get, while trying to prevent any sort of exploits with their unique effects. In case i missed something or you disagree with any changes, suggestion are welcome.
- Quick access to all items for testing or whatever purpose is possible with console commands, type help artifacts and look for the spell "ADDArtifacts", then select the player and use the command to add this spell as following addspell xxx (replace xxx with the editor ID you found with the help command).
Compatibility
- Fully compatible with any mod that do not change unique items or it`s effects.
- Weapons Armor Clothing and Clutter Fixes: Compatible, this mod already forward most of it`s fixes and keywords without creating a dependency, for further changes, mostly related to the armor swap feature for the Shroud armor and the Arch-Mage Robes, a compatibility patch is also available in the download section.
- Morrowloot Ultimate: Compatible, many of the new items stats are based on it. Just make sure to load it before Artifacts & Uniques.
- Summermyst/ Wintermyst: Compatible, while they do not change unique items, they do apply some fixes to magic effects used by then, thus they must be loaded before Artifacs & Uniques or said effects will be reverted to the vanilla form. These fixes are not needed anymore.
- ArteFakes: Patch provided in the download section.
- Unique Uniques: Patch provided in the download section.
- Legacy of the Dragonborn: Patch provided in the download section.
- Zim's Immersive Artifacts: Main mod is not compatible, the Thane Weapons weapons modular version is compatible.
- Reliquary of Myth - Artifact Overhaul: Not compatible, both mods alter the same content.
- Visual Animated Enchantments - VAE: It`s assets are included in Artifacts and Uniques, VAE esp needs to be load before this mod and the meshes/ textures can be overwritten.
