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.

I agree about the names – calling a character Nicholas is a bit much. Regarding the sacred animals and Jesus – you're not making armor out of Jesus's skin, and it's clear that this is for religious reasons, not because it would be bad armor. But in my opinion, the world still implies a certain number of poachers, for whom forbidden scales don't inspire any sacred awe. And they could very well gather these scales for armor. After all, when a dragon dies on the battlefield, and scavengers subsequently pass through it, it can also lose its scales and everything else.

Кого б ты ни встретил в далёких краях
Счастливее всех босоногий монах.

Regarding the fact that there are no dwarves on the map—I think they are deep underground... and therefore don't interfere in the affairs of the world :) (like the black dwarves in "Henna's Adamant"), so in that regard, IMHO everything is ok :) at least until the release of an add-on with dwarves...
And overall, the artifacts are decent.... at least finding one of them won't tip the game too far in one direction....
+ I rrrrreally liked the absence of artifacts for the undead... they used to tilt the balance way too much before... :)
although some clever artifacts are still missing.... things that haven't been seen yet...
something extraordinary... in the style of "a handful of native soil—units fight as if on their home territory on any land"... or a "sacred dubas—all units gain the ability to fly... + summoning grass elementals":)... basically, there is plenty of room for imagination....
But for now, everything that's here is very gothic :)

The post about dwarves definitely doesn't belong here!
I'm sorry, but I had to delete it.

There aren't enough artworks, I hope more will be added in the add-on (patch).

I hope so too... ;) There are too few artworks compared to the third game... I really like the helmet from the dwarven set... and the ring that gives -2 to enemy morale.

I found the armor with HUGE power to be cool :) Yeah, +2 to spell power is a huge boost :)

Yeah... It seems like no one has updated this thread in a while. Did everyone go to the front? Guys, I have a problem – I have a pirated English version (haven't bought a license yet), and I don't have descriptions for some artifacts, for example, the Necromancer's Helmet... Just the name – and that's it. ((( Maybe it's time to update the artifact list, huh?

It's easier to buy a license, and trust me, it has many more advantages besides a complete description and a Russian translation.

Is the Necromancer's helmet the one that gives +2 to Knowledge?
And I haven't bought non-licensed discs lately, and I wouldn't recommend you do either.
(especially because of pirates using translation programs – they produce such nonsense, but for 350 rubles, you can be happy).

I urge everyone to buy a license! My Heroes game was lagging, but after I purchased a license, it started running smoothly! And the artifacts aren't bad; they're not as overpowered as they used to be. But the fact that the Lucky Charm can now be worn on a foot (!) means that Nival needs to be punished!!!!

It doesn't matter where the horseshoe is worn. The important thing is that there are very few artifacts. Why aren't there any sets? Or will they appear in a patch (add-on)? In Utopias, you can only find one artifact at a time (that's what happened to me), and even then, the artifact is terrible.

I would like to note that on regular maps, it was IMPOSSIBLE to assemble a composite artifact on a standard or, even more so, a random map. And at the beginning, there were few artifacts in the game; with the expansions, their number increased significantly. By the way, most of the artifacts differed only in name.

Are you talking about the third game? I'm not even talking about the regular maps from the third game... I'm talking about random maps. Collections could be put together quite well (if you tried!), at least the concept of a "compiled artifact" exists in the third game.
