Artifact (Dissidia)

Artifacts are special items gained by playing online with other people in Dissidia Final Fantasy or Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy.

When recieved, the artifact has the name Nameless and can not be equipped. The player can then name the artifact and it can be equipped. Artifacts can then be passed on again by dropping them in online fights, where they can be renamed again by the new owner. Players can only have 20 artifacts at a time.

The artifact is a copy of a piece of equipment the other player has. Equipment combinations are not copied as artifacts have their own special combinations. Artifacts gain stronger combinations as they pass from player to player. They start with combinations that weaken the player. After 50 owners, they bestow the best combinations in Dissidia.

As the artifact passes through owners it may gain effects such as "Worth more money in the shop" or "Can be equippeds by all Chaos warriors."

The Artifact menu
There is an artifact menu where you can name Nameless artifacts, view your named artifacts, sell them or view the artifacts history, such as previous owners and previous names. It shows the stats of the artifact and it's base, the item it started off as.
