Artifacts
You start with the Larval Core (+2 Heat at the start of each combat). Others come from Sentinels, Wreckage, Nexus-7 and Anomalies.
Some examples:
- Cracked Datacore: draw 2 extra cards on the first turn.
- Neural Filter: the first Corrupted card of each combat doesn’t generate Corruption.
- Veridion Lantern: Dying Stars don’t reduce your Energy.
- Remembrance Day Amulet: when you drop below 30% Integrity, gain 12 Shield.
- Vexro Heart: +1 Energy per turn… and Corruption every combat.
Every artifact you find is recorded in the game’s Vita Datacore.
