The Weird Alien Artifact is a unique [[special]] [[item]] which can be used by any [[ship]] class, regardless of the displayed ship type.

==Death Protection==
An equipped Weird Alien Artifact will '''prevent''':
* [[Resources]] in storage dropped on death
* Repair Fee ([[credits]] penalty) on death
* Equipped item [[Durability]] loss on death
** The Weird Alien Artifact loses 20% [[durability]], and drops in the sector
* [[Hardcore Mode]] accounts will '''NOT''' lose items, ships, or XP on death
** They will lose the Weird Alien Artifact, which drops in the sector

==Notes==
* [[Rarity]] does not modify behavior
* It cannot be stolen, however other items may be through [[Item Theft]]
* Kills and Deaths from [[PvP]] are still counted
* WAA does not repair with nanorobotics [[technology]]
* WAA cannot be repaired with [[Engineering]]

==Other Uses==
Dropping a Weird Alien Artifact manually (Jettison Item) will randomly teleport everyone nearby to a random sector.

This also teleports the Weird Alien Artifact to a random sector.

This may not be done during Engagements, or in Blue and Grey sectors.

==I Want One==
The Weird Alien Artifact is only given out during special events.
