So on one of my other topics from general discussion a person mentioned as a artifact he found gave him coordinates that lead to another planet with ship that where unarmed and it said that they where ships with a mysterious white powder of unkown origin. I was wondering what they do and if there are other precursor artifacts in the game and maybe you guys could make it so if you get those artifacts that it gave you an advantage over the flood scince the powder is the flood that used to be precursors. Or maybe a weapons damage boost and also how often is it to find one of these artifacts. Oh and last do the ships with the powder look like something more precursor like and not like the forerunner ships or human or covenant?

Some good ideas, granted. But implementing them would give the controlling player a HUGE advantage, i mean these guys were more technologically advanced than the Forerunners. and that makes them very tough, so maybe in the far future, but now? i dont see that happening.

Precurser artifacts no longer exist, they rely on neural energies, the Halo effect wiped out all neural energy, so they would be turned to just pure atoms.

Oh thats right! i totally forgot about that. Ok well there goes those ideas, unless they were sealed in something, but that would make a complicated back story, so still probably a no on these artifacts.

Sorry guys, I couldn't resist, would be nice though, not the ability boost just the derelicts left inhert, someone had the idea a while ago to have a small wooden blue box hidden in the asteroids, personally I think we're better sticking to the immediate and connected halo lore or one day we might start a sotp game and find wreckage of a borg cube or death star. Wouldnt mind seeing Deep Reverence remains or a shattered Installation 04 witch is still adrift above Threshold along with whats left of the autumn and the Mona Lisa, perhaps the shatterered and burned out remains of Unyeilding Heirophant and the twisted wreckage of the Ascendant Justice sticking out of her side.

How many spoilers did I give away to the non-readers of the halo lore their?

So what if they were all forerunner artifacts instead? Mostly all the effects should remain the same but the pictures and descriptions should be changed to a more halo themed.

Id say this should at least be considered, it would fit well with the halo universe already since the covenant and UNSC had been finding forerunner stuff througout the war.

I made a thread on this artifact stuff before, got some really good results, so id say, just like i said there, this is a good possibility, and since so many agree, i still hope it will happen
