The Artifact Reliquary is a Special Boss Monster found only in Bulwark's Ambry.png Bulwark's Ambry. It serves as the Boss for the various Artifact Trials, and contains the current Trial's Artifact.

Environments

  • Bulwark's Ambry.png Bulwark's AmbryBulwark's Ambry.pngBulwark's Ambry (Hidden Realm)
    Hidden Realm: Bulwark's Ambry
    The area consists of block-shaped platforms, with the Artifact Reliquary in the center.

Skills & Behavior

The Reliquary is immune to all normal forms of damage. To defeat it, the player must interact with it while carrying an Artifact Key.png Artifact KeyBgBoss.pngArtifact Key.pngArtifact Key
A stone shard with immense power.
. Doing so consumes all Artifact Keys, deals 1/4 damage to the Reliquary, and causes it to emit a shock wave that pushes nearby players and flying enemies a considerable distance.

Once the Reliquary is given the first Artifact Key, Monsters begin to spawn and the Reliquary begins firing lasers in a set pattern around itself to attack, which home in on any nearby player. Its fire rate increases the lower its HP becomes, and its lasers become faster and gain stronger homing capabilities.

Enemies will drop the second, third, and fourth keys, which must each be taken to the central sphere. When the fourth key is turned in, the sphere will be destroyed, and upon retrieving the artifact within the Reliquary, a portal will open to bring the player to the next stage.

Notes

  • Upon being given an Artifact Key.png Artifact KeyBgBoss.pngArtifact Key.pngArtifact Key

    , ALL Artifact Keys are consumed, regardless if they're lying on the ground or are in other players' inventories. It is impossible to stockpile Artifact Keys by not picking them up. The only exception to this is that keys that have not finished their spawning animation are not consumed.
  • The shock wave and subsequent knockback can be blocked with Tougher Times.png Tougher TimesBgCommon.pngTougher Times.pngTougher Times

    15% (+15% per stack) chance to block incoming damage. Unaffected by luck.
    .
  • Enemies will not spawn if all players stray too far away from the main platform (for instance, by reaching the floating cube where the code for the Artifact of Enigma can be found).
  • If the HonorArtifact of Honor is active, the Reliquary can become Overloading, allowing it to recover some of its health as shields if keys are not dropped quickly enough.
  • The Reliquary can be healed by allied Mini Mushrum.png Mini MushrumsMini Mushrum.pngMini Mushrum

    After standing still for 1 second, create a zone that heals for 4.5% (+2.25% per stack) of your health every second to all allies within 3m (+1.5m per stack).
    .
  • Due to the internal mechanism implemented for the monster level and the fact that the Reliquary does not use this, it will most likely always be level 1. However, if the ChaosArtifact of Chaos is enabled during the Trial, monsters may kill each other which rewards their team with experience and levelling up just like the players. If the Reliquary does level up, its health will increase accordingly which may require more than 4 Artifact Keys in total to complete the Trial.
