Addition from 10.03.2006: Nival posted some translated information about artifacts on the official Russian website:

Artifacts

Artifacts can be found on the strategic map; they help heroes during battles or travels. Each hero has a limited number of slots (9 in total), but possesses a bottomless backpack. For example, you may find a sword, an axe, and a staff on the adventure map, but you cannot equip the hero with all these items simultaneously, so you will have to decide which one the hero will hold in their right hand and which will remain in the bag. However, you can change your hero's equipment at any time.

Artifacts are of great importance, helping to successfully navigate critical situations; furthermore, they can grant heroes abilities that they have not yet managed to master.

Here are a few artifacts that you may find during your travels.

Turban of Enlightenment

Turban of Enlightenment allows you to increase your experience by 20%. This is a very valuable artifact for inexperienced heroes, as it helps them quickly reach a new level.

Necklace of Victory

Necklace of Victory adds +2 to Spellpower and the ability to attack the enemy. This artifact is ideal for Sylvan heroes who want to balance their natural skills and abilities (Defense and Knowledge), or for Dungeon heroes who can refine their traditionally strong skills.

Trident of the Titans

Trident of the Titans increases the damage dealt by a hero's lightning-based spells by 50%. This artifact will be useful for any hero with magical abilities who wants to increase their power on the battlefield.

Wand of the Titans

The Wand is imbued with the energy of special spells, and they can be used once or several times, even if the hero has not yet learned these spells. If you find such an artifact during your search, it may prove very useful, especially for a hero who has not developed their magical abilities. The ability to use just one spell can fundamentally change the course of a battle.

Additions and corrections are welcome.

P.S. In the release of Heroes 5, the system and number of artifacts may be changed. Everything published here is based only on the beta version.

That’s how they steal things; it's just too much!
Artifacts, city development system, monsters – these are all from the third game… but they really screwed over the heroes.

Let's talk about the heroes here: /topic/189/
And we can discuss artifacts here: :D

I was so happy when I found out that there would be a "Unicorn Horn Bow"! Let's give archers some love!!!! :) The only thing that makes me sad is that I feel sorry for the Unicorn because of its horns :(

Regarding why there aren't heroes from the third game – it's obvious, since it's a new world, where would a bunch of old heroes come from?
As for the artifacts – why do you think that "the artifacts are rubbish, everything is copied, blah-blah-blah, the developers have no imagination"? The artifacts are quite appropriate. Dragon scale armor, dwarven equipment, etc. No excessively powerful artifacts, and at the same time, no completely useless ones. If there were heroes from the third game, but the artifacts were newly created, would you still complain?

Author, and where do the dwarven artifacts come from in the 5th game?:)
And why is there armor made from "sacred" dragons?
:rolleyes:

You don't understand, we want the old world and the old heroes. And I think it's bad when there aren't any powerful artifacts.

Strong artifacts create imbalance, and also turn the game into a quest.

Message from Night

You are absolutely right about this, colleague:) If someone grabs a powerful artifact, you won't be able to catch up with them with your routine hero development, or it will be very difficult:mad: (Here, the principle is "everything at once" if you take a powerful artifact). It's a different story to rise "from rags to riches" on your own; it's not easy.;)
Regarding the quest:confused:, what's wrong with it in a game with so many possibilities? It's more interesting when there's something to do.

Yes, but it's better than useless artifacts. By the way, will there be potions in Heroes 5?

Probably not, as the hero doesn't directly participate in the battle.

Are they even needed!? I didn't use anything except the Nectar of Immortality... But mages can create minor artifacts, and maybe some of them will be one-time use... :rolleyes:

This is his ability, like a charge attack, plus no one can counter his attack.

Katrine, just because you can’t play as Dwarves doesn’t mean they don’t exist in this world. And that’s why the appearance of Dwarven artifacts is quite explainable. As for why there’s armor made from sacred dragons. Dragons can also die, and what could be more reliable than, say, a shield made from the scales of a defeated Black Dragon? And anyone who has that opportunity will be happy to acquire such an item.
And as for the fact that the world and heroes will be new, I think it’s been a long time since we could just accept that. No matter how much people cry “bring everyone back!”, nothing will happen.

If there isn't even a single dwarf, not even as a neutral unit, then I'm sorry. How do they make such cool armor then? Have you ever thought about it? And where does everyone know about their artifacts from? (Let's immediately dismiss the Messiah – there are no dwarves there).
And doesn't the fact that a dragon is a sacred animal bother you? I'm not making armor out of the skin of Jesus Christ's buttocks (God forbid).
The scriptwriters are idiots. I wouldn't even trust them to write a script for the Teletubbies, let alone for heroes. (Although, according to Mishulin, this is a step forward (I was crying)):eek:

Well, the fact that they have no conscience has been known for a long time;
By the way, in TES III MORROWIND, the authors came up with this: they have dwarf artifacts, dwarf factories, dwarf ghosts, centurions, factory workers, all dark elves know about the dwarves, there is one dwarf in the game, and the rest have either ended up in Oblivion, or in the Void, or with Dagoth Ur
This is terra incognita;)
