WK Artifacts
by zooi_
WK Artifacts adds a set of magic-category items, several of them wearable trinkets and tools, that give passive buffs and new ways to move, fight and explore.
What it does
Crafting is the main way to get them: the artifacts are built from Artifact Cores and Artifact Fragments, which players can also loot from Bastion and Ancient City chests. Some recipes are hard and others are meant to be simple, so players can start with small items and work up to the rarer pieces.
The items sit in several categories. Some are weapons or utility tools, while others are worn or carried for passive effects. Rebar is a throwable weapon. Players install the mod on the client and on the server, and the server and every player need it. It is released for Forge only, with a single game version: 1.20.1. The code is under the MIT License, and the mod is not open source. The first release was 2026-08-08, and the latest was published 2026-08-30.
Key features
Wearable artifacts
Trinket-slot items give passive buffs while worn, and each takes a slot in the inventory.
Movement and combat items
Several items change how a player moves, fights and crosses the world, from climbing gear to the Translocator.
Throwable weapons
Rebar and other throwable items add ranged options alongside the melee weapons.
Lore-based items
Item names and categories draw on the White Knuckle game series, with artifacts grouped by type.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
Use cases
Who it’s for: Players who want more Forge trinket-style items for adventure play on a single game version can use this mod. Server owners who want the items available to all players need to install it on the server too.
How it compares
Create: Artifact runs on the server alone and is released under the MIT License, so players join without installing it. EasyMod, Trinkets, More Artifacts and WWA each target Forge for 1.20.1 with client and server installs, and their licenses are All rights reserved, so WK Artifacts differs from them mainly in its item set and its MIT License.
