I think that as long as the Elemental stats of the item are over 6% then it will be artefact.
im back
this time about orbing a newly identified item...
so i buy a para ring from store, use 1mil scroll, and it goes 7 stars, I go to orb to try and kick it to 8 star but no avail.
Question:
If i carry on Orbing the ring, will it eventually go Artifact?
Remember "Quality" of items are determined by the number of attributes on an item, not necessarily the value of the stats added. Adding some orbs has a chance to increase the quality, try using a mix of different orbs.
Is socketing an item classed the same as orbing? (Attributes)

No. Socketing has zero impact on the item other than giving the wearer additional stats associated with the socket item

As 5* explained, the added elemental stats determine whether or not it will go to artefact. They must add up to more than 6.0% otherwise it will never go artefact.
For example:
Level 150 wiz staff has default 5% fire damage
If you craft it and it comes out like this
5.5% fire damage
1.2% dark damage
3.3% lightning resistance
Then the added stats are 0.5 + 1.2 + 3.3 = 6.0 which is not enough and it will never go artefact
If it is like this
6% fire damage
3.8% lightning resistance
1.3% holy resistance
The added stats this time are 1 + 3.8 + 1.3 = 6.1 which is enough and it will go artefact

Usually items like that will go 5/6/7 stars after crafting and will go to their final quality (number of stars) after 1 or 2 orbs
Socket items will never affect it

The total stat added should round up 6.5%+ for it to be artif. Bare in mind if you get - 1.5% dark resistance for example it will reduce from 6.5% and will be 5% meaning won’t turn out artif.

6.1% will go artefact

Mmm that's a very good question. Quite curious myself! I guess magic avoid and poison resist would be the same question. Is there any other stats that can be gained through crafting and also with orbs? Something cheaper te test maybe
What you say there is true, but also there is a measurement of total added stats (not just elemental stats) and the spread of different stats. But probably, by the time you have 6%+ elements you have already met the other conditions.
Would there be public outrage if I moved the goalposts of these conditions to make it harder to get Artefact? Since there's so many artefacts in game it would be nice to have a higher rank
Orbs only compare against the basic unrefined item, it doesn't matter where the +4 comes from, if an Orb max is +4 then it won't work
Please don't I like my shiny characters haha
No man.. dont please.. Getting artifact items/designs/essence is hard as it is already and costs a bomb.. and on top of that they can fail or get some rubbish results.. i dont like it..

I just started my quest to make a full artefact kit for my lvl 50 store char lol.
Also I like my shiny stuff, but I guess it would give people incentive to try and craft more.
Maybe if you made artefact harder to achieve but made 7 star items a silver shiny rather than gold, at least people who used to have 8 stars but now have 7 would still have some shinyness to show off

How many do you need? I have a silly amount of des/ess sitting, bulk discount if you take the whole lot
