It's statline is:

Speed: 4 Defense 2
Acc: 3 Damage: 16L/5L
Rate: 5 Overwhelming, Piercing.
Attunement: 10, activated: 6: Blazing Solar Bolt (ST modified, unsure on the details.)
That's not really a 4-dot artifact. It is a very powerful 3-dot one (possibly too powerful to exist). At 4-dot, you shouldn't get more powerful than a grand goremaul in pure stats, which this is. Instead, you should add on interesting things. This is not interesting.

Also, you only have to pay double to attune to magical material bonuses or powers too tied to the magical material associations.
