How to override crafting costs for you.
If you don't understand how it works, give me what you want I will help.

First, open Game.ini and mod folder

Mod Folder location
Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\346110\937322940

Game.ini location
depenon your server you play in. So. just find the folder name ShooterGame
ShooterGame\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor

And you need this link: https://ark.gamepedia.com/Artifacts

I give you example this way works with other artifacts too.

For example you want to change Artifacts of the Devious costs
First click the link I gave you and click the artifacts you want to change.
look at Spawn Command . For Ex Devious spawn command is

All you need is PrimalItemArtifact_04 <<< Mean Artifacts of the Devious.

Next, Go to mod folder search for PrimalItemArtifact_04.
You will find 2 file
PrimalItemArtifact_04_Child2.uasset.z
PrimalItemArtifact_04_Child2.uasset.z.uncompressed_size

everything you need is PrimalItemArtifact_04_Child2 <<< Mean Devious for mod.
Put _C after that should be like this.
PrimalItemArtifact_04_Child2_C

Now, You got the item code!!.
Open Game.ini Put this under [/script/shootergame.shootergamemode]

What dose it mean?
ConfigOverrideItemCraftingCosts = class name you want to change costs.
BaseCraftingResourceRequirements = class name resources you want Wiki can help u
BaseResourceRequirement = How much resources you want to use
bCraftingRequireExactResourceType = let it be false.

If you want more resources just put , after ResourceType=false)
If you finished don't put , just put duble )) in the last.
That mean you finish changing crafting costs 1 artifacts.

If you don't understand just leave a comment I will help you.

Would you please be able to list each of the "Item Class Strings" for the artifacts? I don't have the mod folder until I run it though the game, but I want to have the INI changes ready to go for then. It would also make it quicker and easier for other people to do it, rather than going though the item class strings themselves.

Replace from "PrimalItemResource_Thatch_C" to "PrimalItemResource_Electronics_C" and set BaseResourceRequirement=30.0

To override the element cost try this:

ConfigOverrideItemCraftingCosts=(ItemClassString="PrimalItemConsumable_craftable_element_C",BaseCraftingResourceRequirements=((ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_MetalIngot_C",BaseResourceRequirement=40.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=false),(ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_Electronics_C",BaseResourceRequirement=10.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=false),(ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_Gasoline_C",BaseResourceRequirement=40.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=false))

now one consumable element costs about 40 MetalIngot, 10 Electronics and 40 Gasoline.

Is there a way to disable the element crafting entirely?

Put this code in Game.INI

OverrideNamedEngramEntries=(EngramClassName="EngramEntry_TFE_crafter_Artifacts_C",EngramLevelRequirement=1,EngramPointsCost=1,EngramHidden=True,RemoveEngramPreReq=False)

I have been trying to override the crafting costs for the artifacts, but whenever I boot up the game, it still uses the vanilla value (100 electronics, 500 metal ingots).

The command in the .ini is currently:

ConfigOverrideItemCraftingCosts=(ItemClassString="PrimalItemArtifact_04_Child2_C",BaseCraftingResourceRequirements=((ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_MetalIngot_C",BaseResourceRequirement=50.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=false),(ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_Electronics_C",BaseResourceRequirement=50.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=false)))

I have this for any articaft for the Island and the Artifact of the Devious (as seen in the example). Any idea what I have to correct to make this work?

For anyone having this issue, try removing the "2" in the artifact string. It looks like this may have been changed. So for the one above:

ConfigOverrideItemCraftingCosts=(ItemClassString="PrimalItemArtifact_04_Child_C",BaseCraftingResourceRequirements=((ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_MetalIngot_C",BaseResourceRequirement=50.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=false),(ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_Electronics_C",BaseResourceRequirement=50.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=false)))

For any one that needs it here is my code for all artifacts. I made each artifact need 5 metal ingot and 5 electronics. Of course you can change the value to whatever you prefer.

ConfigOverrideItemCraftingCosts=(ItemClassString="PrimalItemArtifact_04_Child_C",BaseCraftingResourceRequirements=((ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_MetalIngot_C",BaseResourceRequirement=5.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=false),(ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_Electronics_C",BaseResourceRequirement=5.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=false)))
