Re: Favorite artifacts
The Forbidden Light. Style, power, and suicidal blaze of glory. I mean, wow. It's a chunk of the sun, the epitome of Power Man and Even God Were Not Meant to Have, and everything in the cosmos, including the Horrors, wants it. It's also one of the few items that really conveys a sense of Godlike power. "Right, men, fall in, lances at the ready, we'll just be cresting this hill here and OHSWEETPRETENDERMYEYES!"
On that same note, the Unquenched Sword. Free Heat From Hell!
The Sword of Aurgeimer is practical AND stylish, as is the Armor of Virtue(The better part thereof, apparently).
Kurgi's Gift is pretty sweet. When better targets fail to present themselves, I use it to strike at Undersea provinces which I can't actually conquer, out of sheer spite. Then I send a water mage in to claim the unoccupied land, but that's really more of an afterthought. It's the spite that counts.
Caractor, Nethgul, and both unique eyes are useful AND amazingly fun, as is Percival the Pocket Knight, though he does seem kind of sissified, considering the lower level Bottle of Living Water. Still, protection 30 is nothing to scoff at.
Last of all, the Chalice and Gate Stone are absolutely, positively indispensable.
