Artifact WOULD help - but it could also be used elsewhere for even greater effects.
What abominations lack in SC potential, they make up for in survivability. Consequently, they tend to make better, more cost-effective* platforms for, say, the Soulstone of the Wolves. And I still think they're a decent choice for Kurgi's Gift, what with having no spell levels to lose, and being ultimately expendable.


*25+20(GoR)}+5(Amulet of Antimagic) gems vs a Tartarian's 10-30+equipment+means of healing afflictions). Bearing in mind the Achilles' Heel that is undeath, to say nothing of superior HP and built in lifedrain/regenration combo, I find abominations well worth the slightly higher base cost.
