Best Artifacts you've found so far.

[Swaggaccino]

What else am I missing and what combos has everyone else come up with?

EDIT: Turned it into a tier list.

God Tier -
Liquid Rock: Radiation/Chem Resistance: Maximum. No downsides.

High Tier -
Weird Ball: Reduce bullet damage when standing still but can pick up a few kg in weight if shot.
Weird Flower: Increased stealth but wanes over time.
Weird Water: Increases carry capacity by 40kg but you are drunk.

Good tier -
Thunderberry: Maximum endurance but maximum radiation absorption.
Hypercube: Maximum thermal and bleeding resistance but maximum radiation absorption.
Compass: Maximum physical protection but maximum radiation absorption.
Spring: Medium weight but medium radiation absorption.

Ok tier -
Weird Bolt: Reduces damage from anomalies but greatly increases stamina drain

I haven't had much luck, so Weird Ball for now.

I think the weird flower only affects mutants based on it's description.

Liquid Rock + Hypercube makes you effectively immune to anything that isn't psi, electric, or physical damage.

Is it true that if you find an artifact you don't like you can spam reload save until you get a new one? Attempting to get this to work myself.

Yes, you can do that.

Yes the weird artifacts have weird effects in exchange for not having downsides. The "Weird Ball's" effect makes its weight go from 0.5 kg to 5.5 kg sometimes when you get shot, goes back to normal over time.. The "Weird Water" occasionally gives you a drunk effect for a few seconds.

I only have like 5, but I found one that just has radio protection and lets me equip 2 other artifacts with weak radio without taking radiation damage (but its right on the cusp so I won't lose radiation automatically unless I unequip them). Then I have 2 that give me weak endurance and 1 that gives me weak endurance plus weak physical protection (IIRC) which appears to drain stamina slower which is a god send even at the low levels.

Liquid Rock is maximum radiation resistance.
Hybercube is maximum radiation ABSORPTION.

So they cancel each other out. The remaining is maximum bleeding resistance, thermal and chemical protection.

I wouldn't say it's that good of a combo because I rarely encounter thermal or chemical. Bleeding is pretty often but meh just carry a bunch of bandages. Go for maximum weight.

Liquid Rock or "MAXIMUM radiation". I was overjoyed to finally find a high rad counter

Yup. Save beyond 150m from your farm. Reload every time you don't get what you want. Collect what you do want. Farm resets every emission.

I'm looking for a maximum weight artifact. Still haven't even found "strong" but my friend got it on his first go at an anomaly.
