99% Of Players Make THIS Big Artifact Mistake! 

Ash "look, this one has speed, let's roll it up." *Proceeds to sell*

"Speed and Accuracy? Let's keep it and roll it up." Immediately sells it despite saying let's keep it and roll it up. 5:07

One exception I'll make with no-speed artifacts is for speed tuning teams; sometimes, you just don't need all that speed to get to that breakpoint and there have been occasions where I'm way over the speed threshold and can't find any artifacts to lower my speed. But outside of that, I agree, speed is king and you usually can't have too much of it.

Now all I need is a good accessory cleanse video. Accessories are weird because the substats rarely seem to go with the mainstat. Stop giving me attack and attack % on my defense pieces, Plarium!!

Need for Speed: Shadow legends

Thank you so much for all these videos. There is sooo much to Raid and it's really easy to get overwhelmed. Your videos help me get more control over my accounts. Because of your videos, I can now kill dragon 13. I was so seriously stuck I was about to quit. Then I watched a few of your tutorials and I cleaned up my account. I focused on only 5 champs and got them all to 6 stars. (I have 1 left to do) I have increased masteries and ascended them. (I didn't realize how much that little stuff helps!) I also have been busting butt on arena and getting my great hall up. This video helps me understand about artifacts. I am guilty of hoarding artifacts myself. Mostly because of faction wars, though. Or events where you need one faction to kill dungeons. Those aren't main champs. I've only been playing for 40 days. But sometimes I want a few points in an event or wanna get faction wars done, but have no champs built for them, so I put random artifacts on them. So I'm afraid to sell artifact pieces. But this makes a lot of sense. I can still hoard them, I'll just be selective in what pieces I hoard lol.

I remember when I was more earlier game and I was like meh on spd untill I couldn't progress passed 13 xd. (Ftp btw) then once I got more sense I got my champs faster and I did 25 dungeons and speed tuned cb. Spd is so important

Great common sense advice there, Ash. I would also like to add that a fortnightly item purge would be good for all players as well. =)

thanks Ash, absolutely great vid, wish you had gone through more gear sets. a similar vid about accessories could also be nice although i guess that's a bit more complicated. thanks as always.

LOVE THESE!!! The in real-time “for dummies” makes it SO moldable for us to use across other pieces tyyyy

I've only been playing for 3 weeks so I don't have much good gear. Because of that I have 3 big rules: #1 I keep almost every set piece from hard-to-obtain areas such as forge, arena, and clan boss. Pieces such as perception, relentless, divines, etc are too hard to come by for now so I keep all but the absolute worst of those. Big rule #2 is that for any sets, I'll keep at least 1 of every base stat for each body part. For example, although resistance is pretty useless early game, I still keep 1 resistance chest from each set if I have it. And my #3 rule for all sets is to keep at least the top 3 pieces for each body part and sell all the rest.

Use FROST on 2nd-3rd rate AOE Provoke Champs that are used in Faction Wars teams, i.e. Crimson Helm, Templar, Seneshal, Rockbreaker, etc. These make for good CC Champs, and it frees your better gear for other ppl. Also you are BOUND to get very good Frost gear from all that Dragon farming!

My name is DarkBeerGuy and I am a hoarder. Thank you! I needed this. Went from a full inbox and 1300 to 930. Made $40M+ in silver.

I keep no speed perception gear with great crit rate or crit rate plus crit damage and accuracy rolls for nukers that also bring valuable debuff/cc (like e.g. Astralon). Using one perception set on them beside the wild or lethal set can make the difference to get enough accuracy for PVE without using accuracy on the banner

Wow that's funny, I was literally just thinking about asking you to do a video like this right after watching your previous video. 😂 You work wonders my man!

Ash, these perception artifacts without speed but with res and defensive stats could be very useful for hydra

This was eye opening, Im a f2p player sitting around lvl60. I cleaned up my artifact collection and used the extra silver to max out the good ones i have. Immediately saw improvements

This past weekend I just did a huge purge in upgrading the quality of my gear, and made the decision to purge all my non-upgraded (16) 5 star gear and just start using 6-star gear. I was left with about 500 pieces of gear after the purge but made almost 50m silver getting rid of all my 5-star stuff.

【Sunglasses Finnish Pirates】0:27 Be one of a kind :) Nice T- Shirt! hahah cleansing: Ace Ventura: Pet Detective: "I have exorcised the demons! This house is...clear" great movie, great scene great actor Jim Carrey :) This game is the spiritual successor of Matrix Online...speed is king and it feels like bullet time when you have enough speed. My favorite sets are the atleast for me new righteous gear & perception so mandatory speed, but then resistance & accuracy for the arena in mind so likeminded in a sense what we want "speed since it's king, but then resistance & accuracy

I'm such a hoarder. These are tips I need. Plarium could make this more easy, thanks to the filter it became better, but they could tweak it so we can sell pieces without a certain substat etc...

This was really useful! With its especially concise and clear advice, this is my new favorite gear cleanse video.

Is there a spreadsheet or some kind of visual chart available for preferable stats on specific artifacts? I'd love to have a quick reference to look up what is good on a specific piece.

Def% substat on savage is useful for your def nukers because it improves both damage and survivability.

A lot of this made so much sense. I know I'm guilty of keeping pieces I think a FW champ may use, But mainly, the speed sub stat rule makes a lot of sense

I put a frost set on my bivald with decent stats, and with his provoke AOE it seems to work pretty well.

Hey Ash I was wondering what a good thing to work on as a early mid game player to progress the fastest I am fairly new and your content has really helped me out. (I just got deliana and I have a six star ascended kael, normal seigehulk, elhina 4 stared acended and, some rares that I have never seen people say were good if that helps)

X'D Feeling that dopamine rush when you see that lightning @14:20

Thank you just started playing played like 6 days ago getting Deliana tomorrow and your Videos have been a great help many thanks btw I have sub to your channel keep up the great work much app

i love these kinds of videos, i always always put off a gear cleanse! will do this now

I've so much junk, I mean I've good six star pieces from crapy sets, and my inbox has so much unused pieces :S I hope Plarium will consider making looking through your artifacts easeir, as filtering 1300 eq pieces for the 5th time after another dragon event when your blue stack crashed, after auto battle....

i'm way strict with myself - i haven't kept an artifact or banner that doesn't have a speed stat on it already. sometimes it's been hard but i just haven't felt like spending a fortune trying to get a speed roll. there's enough rng on gear upgrades without worrying about that :) besides, this way, i know all of my gear has the stat i want the most, then i just close my eyes, cross my fingers and hit upgrade lol

I am new to Raid. I really like it. I'm just a bit confused as to how often I should change my gear or artifacts? I noticed you have slots for a few different builds. I don't like that it always tries to get me to change my artifacts. Lol I have so many artifacts that I can sell. I'm a noooob swim really learning still. What would be your advice on any builds!? I have maybe 8 main heros that I focus on and really work on. Thank you and have a great day . 😊

I was leaning in this direction, especially when I was desperate for silver. Wasn't sure if I was going in the right direction, and definitely have been too conservative. I'm all in, no looking back, no regrets.

Solid advice. I periodically clense alot of bad stat gear or low star gear but I admit I tend to struggle getting rid of decent pieces of gear that are always "on the fence". Definitely trying to break that mentality. That said. Any advice on Accessories? Mostly just selling low quality or low stars but in terms of stats or stat priority, is there anything more I can do to up my cleanse game?

Great video, Ash. Concise and useful.

I literally just did this during last artifact event i started with 7 million. I got every prize in the event just leveling items to 8 and selling junk a few went to 12. I sold half my artifacts leveled the rest to 8 and ended with 4 million silver when i was done. As you get further along you become ever more critical of the gear you have and will use.

Tell me about it. I tried HH subscription but it only helped a little to clear average or lower future or current rating. Because I horde my energy and do long runs, I end up with a lot of artifacts overflowing. This is a BIG issue, because you can't see the stats of artifacts that you get in the overflow.

I LOVED THE LEGENDARY ROLLS EDIT!!!!!! It was so hyped as always but for artifacts

Youre such a legend. I love your content and you are so positive. Thank you for the great help and videos.

I think Im still in the beginning/mid game stage and I have very few epic/legendary artifacts and all the ones I have and receive are from campaign and are common or uncommon. Where is/are the best places to get really good items to use in the forge so I can equip and get really good ones?

hey Ash, semi midgame player here, comfortable where i am for the moment. i dont really have time to do a good cleanse on all my gear with the 1300+ pieces i have. would you ever recommend selling ALL of your unequipped gear bar the hard to get sets?

I feel attacked 🤣 Thank you for this video. I'm one of those players who can't make decisions on what to keep and what to sell. My overflow is usually sitting around 200-300 artefacts... I'll give it another go.

Would frost set be something to consider on Provokes champs (since we are getting more and more of those)?

Hey bro how you doing? Im watching all your vids im about a month in Raid and loving it but can you do a video guide on what heros and gear to use for starters? Like whaaaayyyyyy in the beginning!!! Keep up the good vids bro!

Grossly undervaluing Frost Set. Put Tatura in Frost and Frostbite at same time, and enjoy the control.

Love how you sell the artifact you said you would roll up! Keep being you, Ash

As I'm watching this video, I'm maxed out on gear and it has started going into my inbox, lol. I think it's time for a purge. Thanks for the video!

I have the frost set(4)& righteous(2) on my lvl 20 cultist. They're not even fully leveled up artifacts, and I have like crit rate/damage at 9% on a 4 star, rare artifact. My cultist is almost at 7,000 power. Level 20, uncommon and ascended twice. I think that's pretty good for an uncommon. My level 40 elhain is only at like 9500 power.

Just wondering your thoughts on the Chaos Ore. Say you get some nice boots but they are not Speed? You might roll it to 12 and hit a triple on a stat like HP then use the Chaos Ore to hope to hit something good? Or do you just give up on it?

can you explain why attack percentage as a main stat is bad ? I couldnt ubderstand why some of these main stats were bad.

Amazing video! Thanks

Ash...I absolutely LOVE you! ❤️ Do you know why? Because the key to my heart is: making! me! laugh! - and YOU, my dear sir, my beautifully funny man, make me laugh RIGHT OUT LOUD every time I watch your videos - like THIS one!! And I SO need that laughter right now. So THANK you, from my heart!

Ash, I need help! I play at level 58 right now and UDK is the bane of Arena for me. I need a UDK Killer, how do I build one?

I'm currently raiding the Brutal campaign and am getting literally nothing but commmom artifacts. Is ths normal?

Still new-ish to the game. I get crit damage gloves and putting on a lot of crit rate. But if you need acc and speed too is there much room to put any attack % in there for my attack champions? This is more for dungeons rather than arena so they also need to survive as well which may take away from the attack.

if you ask Hell Hades, Accuracy is king... but I'm sure he's talking about champions that need accuracy, it's more important than speed even though all champions need speed and only champions that do something to the opponent need accuracy

Tnx for video ,it was so helpful for me❤🙏🏼🌹

This was helpful, thanks.

What about the suggested artifacts , should people use them?

During the week I hoard all artifacts. When Clan Quests reset I pick up the quests to sell artifacts for 2,5 mill and for 5 mill. Then I go through and sell everything.

Yeah artifact cleaning is hard, in my experience crit rate for gauntlets and speed for boots always unless for very niche roles

This game has like 3-5x attack multipliers yet nobody stacks attack power? Does it only calculate that from baseline? To me that 5x multiplier seems a lot better than crit with roughly 2x?

Pretty much the case with me in regards to sleep Armor. Loads of it and yet I've no need for it. I can't think of anyone who can use sleep armor more than anything else.

Would be great if Plarium would put a "Does not have" filter ability. That would be so much easier to find items without speed. While I'm asking for stuff, they just hit year 3, how about a 3x speed option, especially for CB!?

This reminds me I need to purge my artifacts 🤣🤣🤣 Awesome content as always

Thanks for the info, Obi Wan. May the Force be with us all!

“Let’s keep this and roll it up.” Immediately proceeds to sell and destroy it, lol 😂

I got a ninja account and I have a lot of gear on the account but don't know what is good gear and what to get rid of. Does anyone know any content creators that do free gear cleanses

Thanks for the info I have stuff that I don’t use and I need silver saludos from San Antonio amigo

Wait to open shards till a couple of hours from now during clan challenge that's going on, you'll get more.

Appreciate you ash!

You've made it make sense! thanx

Love the shirt man!

I’d rather do a gear cleanse then hydra

It's all well and good and I've been paying attention and it's helped a little bit but mainly right now I'm fed up because I've spent over $100 in the last couple months in this game I don't know how I got caught up in that and I have not been able to get any further anywhere I mean I keep getting the same shards I keep getting the same champions over and over again on a loop but I can't get any of the ones that I need for a fusion or anything like that I feel like they're out to get me and I have bad luck though but I'm pretty much done man over $800 and I got no benefit from it

Ash, actually this puts some things in a better perspective for me.

Selling gear is also a clan quest option. 5mil/2mil/1mil

Thank you so much for this. I never realized I was such a hoarder. You have liberated my armor wardrobe and I just became almost 100 million richer in silver!

Thank you, verry interesting

Thanks for the video.

I sold all my 1* artifacts for 510,000. This was a great wakeup call.

Hi dude, Nice vídeo. Thanks from Brasil.

I usually have between 1100 and 1275 artifacts in my inventory. Unless I need to make room before doing multi-battles in dungeons, I tend to consider them my savings account. If I need silver for something I will go the the artifacts before I use my gems or, God forbid, give Plarium any real money 🤑.

I know this is criminal, but I needed to get a 4th piece of instinct gear on my Kael and traded out his speed boots for +60% attack boots that had 12% CR to get me to 100%. He's pathetically slow, but he hits like a beast and I can't break the addiction.

Legit did a gear cleanse last night to prep for the fusion sold 400+ pieces for 15mill silver now i have 30mill silver and havent even done accessories yet. Burning forge pieces as well for extra silver

I admit, I save most of my promising pieces. But I don't roll it until an Artifact event. Then I just usually roll it to 4 to lv8. This way if it lands on something bad, I can sell it and make a small profit while getting points for these events. Win, Win

Yep, my only quad speed roll is on a frost shield 😅

i used hellhades payed version a couple weeks ago made ~170m silver now im left with 800 pieces that are worthy to roll but i dont have any more silver left

i wish we could filter out stuff that doesnt contain stats... like i want to keep pieces with HP% and SPD - so allow me to filter out those pieces so i can sell the rest

I appreciate you showing how you should sell lvl 16 gear which I struggle to do haha

Speed sub stat has to atleast be 5 and be rolled into twice for me to keep. I look for crit rate and damage on my weapons .

Is lifesteal equipment Good For champion NINJA

just went through and cleared out some of my gear and sold 5mil worth of gear... the unnecessary grind I went through to cumulate more silver just to realize how much I was sitting on is a slap in the face smh... not hoarding gear anymore after this...

Im nowhere your level and my main target is minotors labrynth.Mostly because thats the dungeon that I can hit the max level.I dont have motivation to hit other dungeons that aren't max level.I see it as a slow grind but I know deep down I should hit more loot dungeons but I also see the value of masteries and its easy to put on auto.Those masteries are permanent and dont need replacing.Eventually when I can farm fire knight at a high level then I will.Not a great strategy having shit artefacts but I feel being patient for a long term strategy will be best for me as a cheap player.I spent $100 every week for the first 6 weeks but now choose to save my money because I'm not passionate about it.You are a very high achiever but I don't compete with whales

LOL Ash, you sold the good weapon artifact you said to keep! XD

one of the things I hate most is when you lose a battle the "tips" are simply clicking 3 times to be told to upgrade artifacts, nothing about which should be upgraded, nothing about which should be swapped for something better, just arbitrarily burn silver

I'm pretty sure your royal guard had that daze chest piece waaaaaayyyyy back at like at the start of your channel. I remember you saying there's no real reason to keep a daze set unless it has good rolls and you searched to your only pieces and it was on your RG Don't ask me why that stuck in my brain all this time. 😅

Hay thanks about the two you said about

Rip weapon 5:09 💀

you have more daze pieces. check the filters
