Spellforce 3: Reforced - Artefacts Locations (2025)

Intro

This is a ported version from my Steam guide, but with better images and styling to better find what you need.

This is a Guide with images to where you can find the artefact pieces required to craft the 11 items in the sidequest Remnants of the Old, and the pieces for The Windwall Way regarding Isgrimm's armor.

Since the Reforced update release some items were moved to other locations, so I started to write some notes for myself with the new locations of the pieces for the Remnants of the Old and The Windwall Way, and then this sort of guide evolved from there...

I hope it can help someone in trouble finding some missing item(s)... and it goes with saying: WARNING, SPOILERS AHEAD!!!

First things first, in the Reforced Edition it's not Isgrimm who craft the artefacts for you anymore!

Meaning you don't have to worry about keeping him happy to make him stick around until at least you complete these quests... Although since I never tried to drove him away purposely, I don't know if he really leaves even if you go extreme.

Now at Mulandir: Nexus, near Isgrimm's, you will find a nice crafing table for all your needs.

About this guide, I will write them as I found them - in the same order as I played and found/grabbed the artefact, meaning that the first Greyfell section is about the first time I was there and the second one is about the second time I was there after coming back from Liannon... and so on...

In fact, some locations are marked later than when I was there first because that's when I went back to grab the artefact...

For example, Farlorn's Hope is placed in this guide after Mulandir because it's only then that those items are available there, specially one that is required to get another artefact later.

This is by no means a guide on which order you should go to each location!

Unfortunatly, I couldn't use the high quality screenshots I wanted on the Steam guide but now I can.

I hope you enjoy this guide here with better quality images.

Conclusion

Any item that is looted should take into account that enemy Npcs may move away from original location and sometimes we don't kill them at their original location.

That's what happens with the 3 Secret of the Pure, it could be that they are somewhere in the vicinity other than where is displayed in the images - In my images, that was where I kill them but for others that location may change.

I also tried to give the location where some others artefact level items can be found... but I might have to update later on to complete this part, specially with the new items the the Reforced version added to the base campaign...

There is also an artefact by the name of Dave's Butter Knife that can be obtained by killing the dear (Humphrey the Destroyer) for the Dat Doe, Though achievement in Mulandir.

This item can also be obtained by killing Dave, an NPC that attacks you when you try to speak with him in Everlight. Thank you, Steam user ColdFrost:

It is not on the list and it is more of an easter egg but in everlight if you find the npc called 'Dave' near the tavern where you talk to Clara, interacting with & beating him unlocks a 0 damage sword that heals the enemy. (tho it has 50% block & 50% resistance to all damage sources, making it excellent cheese for a taunt tank on CM difficulty)

Name is: Dave's Butter Knife

Steam user Radorin also reported the following:

During the second visit in Farlorn`s Hope I have found slab of Titanite in castle ruins to the north east where on my 1st visit a group of refugees were trying to make a living. Their leader Catherine and all or almost all her men were slaughtered by bandits. Slab was in the chest in the middle of ruins near north entrance but still inside. Don`t think it is listed in the guide. Hope it may help someone

About this Slab of Titanite, I probably also got it on the same place but didn't made a note about it and it slipped out when reviewing them to write this guide.

Meanwhile, if you find any artefact item that is not mentioned here and want me to add it, leave a comment with its name and location and I'll include it when updating it.

Also, English is not my primary language so, please report any mistakes I might have made in the forum thread.

Thank you and I hope this little guide can be useful to you. 😁
