Maybe my memory is failing me, but aren't assembled artifacts like the Titan's Thunder, besides their special effects, also increasing the hero's stats just like their component artifacts would if they were worn simultaneously but not combined? :confused:

Exactly. They do increase them. Only the MOD in addition to this also gives +6 to all primary skills.

For example, it is impossible to use the Elixir of Life and the Shackles of War together.

Why is that?

2. Titan's Thunder is a good artifact. At the beginning of the game, it saves mana when using Lightning Bolt. It is also very convenient because it leaves the boots (Boots of Swiftness) and gloves free for the hero's movement speed, plus one hand free for anything, including the Elixir of Life.

It's unlikely you'll collect it at the beginning of the game. And what do gloves and boots have to do with it? They are only needed "at night" during the turn transition. Then "in the morning" they can be removed, replaced with anything, and "in the evening" put on again... During the day, they do not affect the hero's movement in any way...
