Hi, I'm Marcus — I built WarriorArtifactGuide.info in 2019 after losing a ranked final because I misread an artifact's scaling. That night I started a spreadsheet. Six years later that spreadsheet is a database of 480+ artifacts, every stat re-tested patch after patch.
We're not a faceless wiki. Every tier placement here comes from real drop testing on live servers, timed at our little studio on Rose Street. If a number is on this site, someone here farmed it by hand.

“Swapped to the Sunspear build from their patch 4.7 breakdown and jumped from Platinum to Diamond in a fortnight. The drop-test numbers were spot on.”
