Start at Elf Mage and Match the Reward
Visit Elf Mage in the lobby to open the current Artifact Stage, then match its reward to the named unit before farming. Artifacts rotate weekly and are unit-specific: Pop Green belongs to Captain (God) and improves his plant explosions.
Pop Green: Recipient, Effect, and Reward Route
Treat Pop Green as a farming project for Captain (God), rather than a general reward to spread across your roster. Its benefit is tied to his plants, so prioritize it according to how much you want to use that unit.
How to Plan Your Artifact Runs
- Find Elf Mage in the lobby and inspect the currently offered Artifact Stage. Use that activity as your starting point because the featured stage rotates weekly.
- Read the reward's named recipient before choosing your farming goal. If you want Pop Green, match it to Captain (God); Artifacts are unit-specific rather than interchangeable Relics.
- Check the current stage's entry conditions before forming a team. Read any level or entry-item requirements displayed there, and make sure you can enter before organizing repeated runs.
- When Pop Green is offered, clear its Artifact Stage for a chance at the reward. The stage lasts 20 waves and has a 20% Pop Green reward chance per clear, so a successful clear can still leave you without the Artifact.
- Inspect the grade when you receive Pop Green. Grades run from C- through SSS, with higher grades improving bonuses; compare your reward before deciding whether to keep farming.
Check Availability Before Committing to a Farm
The weekly rotation is the availability check that matters before you organize a farming session. Inspect Elf Mage's current activity and its named recipient each time you return. An earlier Captain (God) rotation does not mean Pop Green is available every week.
Use the current stage's displayed conditions when deciding whether you are ready to enter. Check access before arranging a team, then make sure everyone is aiming for the same reward. This keeps your preparation focused on the activity you can actually play.
- Confirm that the offered reward matches the unit you want to improve.
- Read the stage's current entry conditions before gathering teammates.
- Set your farming goal before starting: obtain the Artifact, or compare a new reward with the grade you already have.
Keep Artifacts Separate From Relics and Traits
Artifacts follow a unit-specific reward path, while Relics are a separate system of crafted unit buffs. Traits are another upgrade system, applied through rerolls. Choose which upgrade you are pursuing before spending resources or organizing a farm.
Should You Farm Captain (God)'s Artifact?
- Is Captain (God)'s Artifact worth farming before it rotates away?
- Prioritize it if Captain (God) is a unit you want to build around. Pop Green improves his plant explosions, making it a relevant upgrade for that specific unit. Check Elf Mage first, then farm while his Artifact Stage is offered instead of assuming it will remain in the next rotation.
- Can Pop Green upgrade a different unit?
- Pop Green is Captain (God)'s unit-specific Artifact. Match other Artifact rewards to their own named recipients instead of treating Pop Green as an interchangeable Relic.
