Artificer

Introduction

Unlock by releasing the survivor trapped in time.

Artificer costs 11 lunar coins. To be able to unlock her, you need to spend 1 lunar coin on a "Newt Altar" before you do the boss so you can activate the blue portal. Once you see the text "Blue Orb Appears", you can finish your boss and a blue portal will appear. You can go into that portal and after you are in the "Bazaar Between Time", there will be a survivor trapped in a large ice shard next to the shopkeeper, go over to the shard and use the rest of your 10 lunar coins to purchase Artificer. NOTE: If you have a friend purchase the Newt Altar for you, you will not need the extra lunar as the Artificer only costs 10 lunar coins.

Artificer deals big AoE elemental damage and specializes is dealing with large groups.

Flame Bolt sets enemies on fire and Charged Nano-Bomb can deal AoE damage while stunning foes.

Snapfreeze can freeze enemies with low health to death while Flamethrower can incinerate groups of targets instantly.

Build Guide

Artificer lacks sufficient mobility and defensive abilities. To accommodate her bad mobility and bad defensive capabilities, we are adding items such as Energy Drink and Personal Shield Generator. You will be building mostly defensive and mobility items very early on and maybe build some damage later in the game. She starts off with a high base damage and even higher with her abilities. We combine Primordial Cube with her Charged Nano-Bomb to create a mass amount of damage to all enemies nearby.

Mobility Items -

Mobility is essential for Artificer because of the fact that that she is very squishy. She has mediocre health so movement speed is needed for her to survive. (Paul's Goat Hoof, Energy Drink, Hopoo Feather, etc.)

Defensive Items -

Defensive items are also essential for Artificer because she is extremely squishy early game. She can get one shot easily late game so she needs certain items like Tougher Times to block these attacks. Old War Stealthkit is also another good one because it can cause her to turn invincible after taking a large amount of damage. (Tougher Times, Old War Stealthkit, Personal Shield Generator, Medkit, etc.)

Infusion -

This item increases Artificer's health which is the main item to keep her alive.

Backup Magazine -

This item gives Artificer multiple Nova-Bombs which drastically increases her dps.

Primordial Cube -

A black hole that brings all the enemies towards it, which is a perfect combo with her Nova-Bombs.

Fuel Cell -

This item adds charges to her Primordial Cube.

Will-o'-the-Wisp -

Basically causes an explosion after enemies die, even more AoE damage.

Gasoline -

Killing an enemy ignites all enemies in a certain area, AoE damage.

Crowbar -

Increases the amount of damage you deal to bosses. (Essential late game to dish out that extra damage)
