#How glyphon uses artifacts?

So Glyphons on Aegis can use character's artifacts, like Engi in RoR2.
But which ones? I've been doing some tests but it's really hard to see the difference, so which artifacts does and which doesn't work on glyphons?

I'm guessing flat buffs like damage, aura and just time based arts do, cause glyphons gain the circles from "Argument" and the other spiky one.
The "On skill hit" seems to not work cause glyphon attack doesn't count as a skill.

Does "Eli's String" work? Does glyphons attack count as elemental? Also does HP, shield and DR artifacts work? Cause it's really hard to check the HP of a glyphon, so I have no idea.

And that's the general issue with this upgrade. I like the idea and I want to use it, but I don't have any idea how to build this thing, how to know what works and what doesn't

Eli string only affects any ability that has "elemental damage bonus" or any artifact

#

I'm pretty sure glyphons work the same as those golem artifacts, where they share ur hp and base atk i think, so i assume glyphons work the same way, and I think the only artifacts that would work is the ones that are on hit rather than skill hit

Do they?

but i feel like it should be generally explained more rather than it just saying "ability to use artifacts" just sounds really vague

Also does Base damage scale glyphons damage?

#

Like I said, I really love the idea and want to play with it, but the game just doesn't explain anything about how it works

Rather than explain the ability I feel like the artifacts that apply to the glyphon should have the same style/flavor text that the enhancer(?) item has for void models 2 ability where it says it functions differently with void models. A simple “applies to glyphons” would solve the issue

So, why don't the glyphons spawn in half metal heads 🤔
