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 urge everyone to buy a license! My game was lagging, but after I bought 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 horseshoe of luck can now be worn on the foot (!) means that Nival should be punished!!!!

Well, never mind, I hope heroes can wear shoes. And if you look at the appearance of the demons, you can put a horseshoe on their feet.

Sorry for the duplicate message.

Don't apologize, just delete the second message. And regarding artifacts, there are too few of them, and they are rather bland! All hope rests on a good expansion pack!

And if a hero has an unattractive face, you suggest covering it with some kind of pot... (for example) :D :D ;) ;)

Let him wear a helmet, and it will increase defense and morale of the troops:D

as for artifacts, there are too few of them, and they are kind of tasteless! All hope is on a good add-on!

Oh, if only Nival would make an add-on with combined artifacts sooner.

Do you think there will be one? I doubt it. I'm going to switch to the WoG versions until the generator comes out. They say there's already a 3.59 version – is that true?

On the Nival forum, the developers are not promising any major changes to the artifacts, so (((

It would be strange if they promised radical changes. ;)

I think combined artifacts are quite fitting.

You should check out the "Heroic Corner" and read the news there; it says that composite artifacts will be introduced.

Go to the Heroes' Corner, and you'll see in the news that composite artifacts will be introduced.

Is that true?

But the fact that the "lucky horseshoe" can now be equipped on a foot(!) means Nival needs to be punished!!!!

In my opinion, everything is correct. Demons with hooves, humans on horses, elves on unicorns, and necromancers on zombie horses are all present in battle. The only ones who can't equip the horseshoe on their "mode of transportation" are the dark elves (because they ride lizards) and the mages (on elephants).

What's so cute about a cloven-hoofed elephant? :)

dark elves (since they ride a lizard) and mages (on an elephant).

Exactly! Mages on an elephant is absurd. They should have put them on camels, honestly, because it doesn't really fit within the usual Heroes of Might and Magic setting.

Guys, you keep talking about composite artifacts – composite artifacts. Let's see if you can remember in which expansion pack for the third installment of the *Heroes of Might and Magic* series they were introduced?
