Being an Anti Hero sucks then.
I mean, the helmet is ugly, can barely hit someone with Fire of the Gods even with power throw 10 and high throwing plus the fact it means we get to play original boring native **** for lots of days while we can just rob cemeteries and obtain the read death armour set in less time.

It also means you get an extra 12 stat points.
I also MAY add recipes for converting Fire of the Gods into ammo for firearms, bows and crossbows at some point.
No... I suggest, however, to convert the Artificer to a dual-sided class, both Necro-Hero and Anti-Hero. You see, my idea here:
http://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/topic,132712.msg6782737.html#msg6782737
can be slightly polished, i.e. Artificer stands BETWEEN The Fountain and Da Vinci, and can join either faction!!!
I never thought the Artificer as a kind of Necromancer, actually, Artificers have nothing to do with death... Artificers are prodigies, and a prodigy is either born(Da Vinci/Anti-Hero side), either made(by demonic powers of the Bloodfountain)...
This would require to add two more option in character building:
Your father was an... Inventor
+2 intelligence, Artificer's Manual
You start your early life as... A Prodigy Child
+4 intelligence, +Possibility to use Artificer's Manual
Artificer's Manual can be bought at the Blood Fountain for 3 Blood, 3 Sludge and 3 Gold Golems or at a book merchant for a very big amount of gold, and it can be sold to Da Vinci for 1 Elixir Adamas.
An artificer is not as strong as a Necromancer but yet it provides some fun gameplay kabogh wants until you get in the right level to earn the Helm of Prometheus. Oh, and there is another difficulty in playing artificer:
Chapters I, II and III can be used by everyone who, either is a prodigy, either learned by the Blood Fountain to use the Artificer's Manual.
Chapters IV, V and VI require the Infinity Stone in inventory to be used.
Chapters VII, VIII and XI require Helm of Prometheus and Fire of the Gods in inventory to be used.
EDIT:
There is also a difference between Da Vinci and Fountain Artificers.
All artificers can have a simple golem tree: Clay->Iron->Silver->Gold
Fountain Artificers may acces the Engine tree, in which
Clay-(Necronomicon)->
Sludge Engine or
Clay-(Necronomicon)->
Blood Engine
Da Vinci Artificers have acces to another tree:
Clockwork Man-(Manual)->
Electric-Powered Man
Also, Da Vinci Artificers may use Firearms(2 pistols, 4 rifles) and Explosives(Currently Molotov, but maybe Shrapnel and some Anti-Undead explosive if you want, may even change amount from 1 to 4 ammo-per-item, always if you want)
and, by talking to Gold Golems, there is an option to use Elixir Adamas to make Diamond Golems.
