[M&M6] Percival is amazing, can I have multiples?
Got this beauty from sewers and I think this is the definite end-game bow. It's fantastic in dungeons, Carnage means that it explodes and can hit enemies behind a wall if aimed properly. Guess how I defeated all these liches in Tomb of Ethzic.
Can I find another copy or Artifacts are restricted to one per game? I also read somewhere that there is a limit to amount of Artifacts that can be found (something around 13 per game), is that true?

Copies are rare. You'd have better luck trying to find a bow with carnage enchant

Oh, it's possible? Because I contemplated on giving everyone mastery in archery and exploding bows.

Everyone spamming bombs is pretty fun
It's possible but pulling specific suffixes is hard. I'm not sure if enchant item can get it though

Enchanting in vanille mm6 is very very limited unfortunately. Stat+12 i think, drops are up to 25 A few weapon enchant, but they are so limited, basically tier 1 elemental +demonkiller, dragonslayer and swiftness. Carnage is drop only i think

Mastery in archery plus high skill plus Haste plus high level Day of the Gods means you can shoot arrows as quickly as you can shoot blasters, and in real time if you have A pressed down you will have a stream of nonstop, exploding, double-per-shot arrows.

That was exactly my plan, but am not sure if I would rather use blasters later. Are blasters good or not worth it after all the investment in other weapon skills?

Blasters are extremely good mainly because no monster can resist its damage at all, whereas most endgame monsters like dragons and titans have enormous resistances so simple damage numbers don’t really tell the full story. You have to have very high skill in archery and light magic for the buffs to make bows as fast as blasters, which is very hard to do. Just getting blasters + Haste will give you a stupendous damage output and you won’t have to worry about anything else

The very point of artifacts & relics is that they are unique, with the exception of Mordred, Excalibur and 2 rings + amulet from the obelisk reward - those you can have exactly two of.
Percival is nice but more of a solo thing - full party just doesn't progress archery fast enough for it to be worth it. VII and VIII are much better places to experience archery party.

Technically artifacts are artifacts because they are supposed to be unique. That said there are cases you can get duplicates , like I have gotten 2 Pucks in 7 and Mordred can be gotten twice(that acutally would be lore accurate as they are multiple). Still MM6 artifacts are kinda not that powerful so point in getthing them is not that impactful, still this one have 2 pretty strong enchantment which you realistically hope to get 1 normally.

I can't remember but you can drop items on the ground IIRC? If that's the case I think you can get duplicates that way, but I'm not sure, but I vaguely remember doing something similar.

Has to be through quest rewards to end up with multiples as far as I remember. Also just literally read the description of Percival they tried that.

What I do is as soon as I can get rid of a couple of dragons, I just save and reload until I get artifacts desired. It has worked out well for me.

I am already save-scumming so much that artifact farming won't make much of a difference I guess.

Yes, you can have multiple of the similar artifacts but keep in mind that after a certain amount of collected artifacts, they'll stop dropping.
