I was like you, running around in the dark aimlessly. Something important to note is that it only spawns at 22:00. Make a quicksave (F5) BEFORE 22:00 (ex: 21:45) while at the floating lights. It will spawn in a new location each time, I got it on the 2nd or 3rd attempt trying it this way. Also I heard that one of the lights will not be moving, it will be around that one supposedly. As soon as I saw it I just grabbed it and immediately saved and ran the hell out of there.

it worked exactly like this for me, at first attempt

I saw on one of the forms that the artefact appears in one of the story missions. At what stage of the game did you find this artefact?

I found it after I got finished with SIRCAA. However I have found other legendary artifacts before then like the Thunderberry when I was only 20 hours in or so. I couldn't tell you which mission causes the better artifacts to start spawning.

[Turt1e]

It might be bugged for me also, couldn't find it after couple hours of rng save trick everybody keeps recommending. Not the most fun puzzle in the game

[RavEn]

For those who don't want to cheat, but still want to know if there is an artefact in his anomaly.

I did the following - installed UETools from nexus.
At night we stand approximately in the centre of the anomaly.
In the game using F10 ( or button ~) called the console.
command ‘UETools_ListActors Artifact’.

After that press F10 twice to open a large console window. and see what is written in the line of the number of artefacts next to it.

When there are artefacts nearby - will be the console response - https://i.imgur.com/OMtYyqg.png Here to check I threw my artefact outside the anomaly. and from the centre of the anomaly console shows it.

and here is the console response when there are no artefacts nearby.

And this is the response when there is a WeirdWater artefact nearby.

This way you can see if there is an artefact in your anomaly at all. And if there isn't, then maybe it's a bug, or the artefact will be revealed later in the story. I don't know about that. I don't have it in my anomaly. I don't want to create it with the console. I'll find it later).

I will also leave the command to create an artefact in the console if anyone wants to use it.
1 - will create an artefact on the ground next to it.
XSpawnItemNearPlayerBySID AArtifactWeirdWater

2 - creates an artefact in your inventory
XCreateItemInInventoryByID AArtifactWeirdWater 0 1 1

There is a mod out, that let detector sense these altered items, even with this mod weird water isn't there for me. No problem detecting others, like weird ball etc. I even stood on the central plateau before 22:00, when the lights spawned not a single blip on the detector, because some theoretise it will clip through ground after spawning.

[Guitar Lord Kryss]

Same for me. Weird water is bugged and not spawning. I installed the detect mod as well. reloaded several times and it was not spawning. going to check again to see if there is any difference after an emission. on another thread there are 3 spawns. some dude tried it 30x and it always spawned for him in the same 3 spots. so it shouldn't be too tough to find. if it is, it probably bugged out and never spawned for you.

[x-layer]

I could confirm that saving just before 22:00 and with few reloads worked for me. Before that I cannot find it, may be spawn rate is not 100% or smth else. It was in the middle of sirca antenas mission.

Thanks for this information. I tried it multiple times and it always came back negative, weird water was not spawned. Even ran around the area and spammed the command, since I wasnt sure of the range.

Used the wait fo spawn method (21:50 and waited till 22:00).

And thanks for adding the command to spawn weird water, you saved me another 4 hours of farming for nothing. thumbs up!

[ChristIceman]

If you use it be careful as it can keep you drunk instead of stopping so it Almost be constantly active when it only supposed to be lasting a few seconds

[Pillagius]

I guess spawn is somehow related to the story progression, after all.
This thing isn't spawning for me and I am a little after story point that earns you "House of Glass" achievement.

Initially tried the reload and search for like two hours (save before 22:00 check a few lanterns and common spots, reload) with no luck.

Then found this thread.
For three in game days I would return before 22:00 scanning with console command to at least know if the thing is even there, then reloading and scanning again ~20 times each day.
Nothing. This is probably the most frustrating thing I've encountered in game so far.

Will try to progress story and see if it helps at all, maybe it really does appear only after Zaton state changes.

[Impasquadee]

I can confirm it depends on the story's progression. If you cheated and obtained it through the console when you weren't supposed to (too early in the progression), you won't see the artifact's benefits. However, it will still work for you

[AllanWake™]

You dont need it, move one.

this ♥♥♥♥ is bugged no ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ way its not
