I've been playing Darksiders. In the course of beating the souls out of dumpsters, traffic cones, and sign posts, I discovered a Fallen Legion Artifact.

The game helpfully popped up "Ooh, take this to Vulgrim and be rewarded!" So I did, and on Vulgrim's interface there was a new "press R to trade artifacts". I did so... and nothing seemed to happen.

The button disappeared, so I think I did trade something, I'm just not sure what I did. What does trading artifacts to Vulgrim do, and is there any reason not to?

So, the only purpose the Fallen Legion Artifacts exist (outside of achievements) is to be traded for souls.

There are a limited number and I do know some people don't trade them in to keep track of how many they still have to pick up, but having 1000/1000 the game myself, I can tell you its not a necessity.

For reference

Fallen Legion Soldier Artifact: 500 souls (there are 20)
Fallen Legion Champion Artifact: 1000 souls (there are 8)
Fallen Legion Overlord Artifact: 5000 souls (plus a wrath core, there is 1)

I found a page in the inventory screen which has a slot for each Fallen Legion artifact, so it seems it's not even useful to keep around for that. – Raven Dreamer♦ Jul 7 '11 at 20:11
