How to unlock
In order to unlock each artifact, you will have to complete a challenge in Bulwark's Ambry. To access this hidden realm, travel underneath the map in Sky Meadow and input a pattern, then confirm on the screen behind the pattern input area (You do not need to see the pattern to input it). If you entered a correct pattern, the teleporter will open a portal. If you enter an incorrect pattern it will fail and you can try again.
(Note: Upon entering the portal, the artifact you are trying to unlock will be active for this stage, then disable when leaving the stage. If you are planning to continue your run, be aware of this, as some artifacts may alter your run, such as Meta changing your survivor.)

Once in Bulwark's Ambry, you will find an Artifact Key in this location. Pick it up, move to the center orb, and use the key.

Monsters will begin spawning and the orb will begin shooting as well. The orb can only be damaged by Artifact Keys.

Killing monsters gives a chance to drop more Artifact Keys to grab and attack the orb with (No need to wait and collect a lot of keys, no matter how many you use at one time, it will do the same amount of damage. It is best to attack as soon as you can after grabbing an artifact key).

Once the orb has no HP remaining, all monsters will disappear and you will be able to grab the artifact.

After grabbing the artifact, a portal will appear to return and start a new loop.

I don't know if they fixed it or not... or if it's even something meant to be fixed, but someone replied to the tweet showing that it was not visible in game...
So maybe eventually it will be or it has been added in a smaller update since but I'm not sure.

Is the Devotion code meant to be seen in-game via the Environment Log for Verdant Falls? At least the Tweet made it less effort.
❤ mantra  [author] 20 May @ 3:02pm 
Okay I think that's everything that needed updated. Have locations and patterns for the 2 new artifacts + info about them from in game. Put them into the list with the order they appear in the artifact list in game.

Every time I try to enter command my screen goes black but I can still move around and do things :(

Funnily enough I actually got Soul, although I don't know how I ever found it, maybe I got a hint? It was a while ago so I don't exactly recall.
❤ mantra  [author] 27 Mar, 2021 @ 4:20pm 
Yeah it was a lot of fun for me finding them all, but there were definitely some real tough ones.
Figuring out the orientation and what all the objects were supposed to be for Soul was probably the toughest for me... especially because it's so different looking from the others. For a while I wasn't sure if it actually was one of the patterns or just coincidence that it looked like one.
