By the way, the game isn't balanced around artifacts, they are there to make the game easier so the current system is alright.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

We will have eventually, confirmed by Cuerzor, he just hasn't showed how it will work yet.

Yeah... because as i said, they would be available at chapter 8 and 11... so of course, there aren't any information about them in the wiki.

Have you verified

Chapter 1 and 4 secret artifacts will be available in chapter 8 and 11, respectively. Anyway, join the official MVZ2 Discord for updates, sneak peaks and spoilers of upcoming chapters (which was the information i just gave came from). You should also ask questions on the MVZ2 Discord to have more chances of getting an answer since there're more active people there.

Check the #mvz2-dev-showcase in the "MvZ2 Dev" category (sorry for not mentioning, i thought it was easy to find), btw 6/6 is chapter 4 planned release date so stay tune.

Ok, it looks like i can't quite explain it well to you, this is my recording of Wither Hard fight (no starshard for bonus lol).
Edit: The sound of the recording is a bit janky for some reason, so no need to pay attention to that :)

About the Golden Apple, you let the Wither eat it, Golden Apple will decrease Wither's health instead of healing it. Mesmerized Mutant is a pretty bad choice considering you just need to get to the 2nd phase to end him quickly by starsharding the Tesla Coils. Just read the Almanac and pay more attention to the lore, you can strategize your setup better (for example in 3-11 intro that you can recheck in the Archives, Shinmyoumaru did say that you can stop Wither's eating-healing by putting something "hard" in front of it so i did try Giant Bowl and Stone Shield first, and then with Golden Apple, it worked flawlessly).

Ok, set all those aside, i will answer all of your problems:
1. Mobile problems:
- Evocated Moonlight Sensor: lighting issue, will be fixed in the next update.
- Too many Furnaces: you can turn off "Particle Count" in settings to lessen the lag.
- Yeah lighting issue, Glowstones are the worst - a lot of players playing Endless notice that too.
- Well this is a remake so of course the performance will be affected.
- Same thing as the previous ones, the game hasn't been optimized (just dig all Glowstones when your FPS is low, you can't really do anything with the wave of mobs lag).
2. Wither problems:
- It seems that you don't know Golden Apple can make Wither lose health upon doing its eating-healing. Save some for the Wither.
- Yes and yes, full Hard mode on both PC and mobile so i know the lag issue and other stuff.
- It's fine. You just need to be more respectful (at least like that).
- Yeah, and again, the game hasn't been optimized and checked thoroughly (it's a free game anyway, cut some slack for the dev).
- Why don't you play 0.3.11, it's literally the best version you can have with the fewest issues.

   I will go through all of your paragraphs and i will give my own criticisms (and i will use Google translator so if i get it wrong, it's your fault for not writing in English).

   Firstly, annoying? Projection. Let's just assess your past replies:
- "If you dont played in Hard Mode i recomend you delete your comment." : Assumption on just a simple question, disregard Piostephanie for no reason.
- "You sound like a ignorant person, you no better my friend!": Again, projection. He was being nice, and what is your response? Oh... right, extremely combative and undermining him that you SHOULD know more than him (and your reasons are as stable as your Hard diff Wither's setup).
   Secondly, trying to be right? Ok, you're using projection a lot here, just reread your messages and if you see that nothing is wrong then i have nothing more to say (it's fine to be skill-issued, what is NOT fine is trying to make a scene out of it).
   Thirdly, oh no, what i don't like about you is your attitude (and even though i have no problem on mobile, i couldn't care less).
   Fourthly:
- "Hero"? Correlation? Off-topic.
- "Everything i said is true"? I'm speechless, again, reread the bracketed in my Secondly.
- "Satisfied"? Did i ever say that you suck, you're bad? No. Did i ever say that i'm better than you? No, same thing with Piostephanie (you owe them an apology). And sorry if my reply seems harsh, but that is the only sorry you will get.
   Fifthly, RNG, micro-management and setup planning/building. That's all i have to say.

   TL;DR, being skill-issued isn't the problem, being butthurt about it IS the problem.

Used a lot of strats ≠ all strats, your brain might explode if i tell you Wither on Hard diff is beatable without using starshard. It's really unfortunate that Piostephanie has to deal with this kind of person like you. Just calm down and stop going on a power trip thinking that you know everything (and fun fact: you don't).
And of course, i will leave tips/advices for you just because i don't want this discussion to continue endlessly:
- Tesla Coils at the 6th and 7th column.
- Thunder Drums for crowd control (1-2 columns preferably).
- Wooden Droppers (replace them with Stone Droppers).
- Stone Shields: prioritize placing on Glowstones, Tesla Coils, Stone Droppers, etc., respectively.
- Glowstone: since you aren't a newbie, you know what to do with these.
