Risk of Rain 2 Artificer: how to unlock the final character

Not sure how to grab Risk of Rain 2’s Artificer? Risk of Rain 2 has come out of nowhere to impressive sales and plenty of praise. The once 2D roguelike is proving to be even better in 3D and brings with it some familiar faces as well as some new characters. While most of these characters can be unlocked by simply running through the game a few times, one of the Risk of Rain 2 characters is a little more elusive. Unlocking them is well worth it though as each of the playable characters in Risk of Rain 2 brings their own gameplay mechanics. The final character, Artificer, simply tasks you with completing the Pause challenge. However, your only hint for doing this is ‘Free the survivor suspended in time’ - that’s not much to go on. It turns out that there are a few steps required in order to save this survivor. Rather than being a skill-based challenge, this is more of a time investment mixed with the joys of RNG. Artificer deals the highest damage in the game, far more than any of the other survivors, so those of you who like dishing out big damage numbers will definitely want to unlock this trapped character. Here is how to get to the Artificer.
