:The name is decided upon at least when the dwarf begins work, maybe before that. The item is not decided upon until it is completed, but if a dwarf has a preference for an item that would be a valid artifact for his moodtype, then he'll make that item predictably. So if your fey weaponsmith likes picks, he's going to make a pick every single time, and save scumming won't change anything. This can be used to your advantage, for instance, if you discover a weaponsmith that likes war hammers....[[Special:Contributions/98.203.173.56|98.203.173.56]] 20:19, 28 July 2011 (UTC) | :The name is decided upon at least when the dwarf begins work, maybe before that.

::Possessed dwarves will mutter the name of the artifact when listing their demands, so it's decided at least as early as when the workshop is claimed. If you can kill a moody dwarf before a workshop can be claimed, engrave a Memorial - if it says "Creator of [artifact name]" (despite the mood having failed), then it's conclusive evidence that the name is decided the instant the dwarf is taken by a mood. --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 01:24, 29 July 2011 (UTC) | ::Possessed dwarves will mutter the name of the artifact when listing their demands, so it's decided at least as early as when the workshop is claimed.
