Asuming they can touch it.
Surely you noticed that when you try several times to drop the box, it "hurts" your haracter (it makes zapping sound and flash a little) ... maybe is is capable of even stronger attack, i mean we dont really know what killed those Mind Flayers, do we? laugh

Yes, i know its just theory ... but i dare to presume that if Mind Flayers let Shadowheart keep the weapon, they had to have some really good reason. laugh

There is also second option, few times mentioned here ... they simply didnt know about it. laugh

... or it could simply be an overlook by Larian. If we can get the artifact, why not some random mindflayer? And yes, they know about the artifact - as was stated a few times, US warns us of opening SHs pod, she is sealed in by a console and the gith attacked and followed the mindflayer ship to Avernus (which is strange as Lae'zel admitted) - so it can be assumed that it was known, that the artifact was there (with the gith not knowing, where on the ship).

And I'm pretty sure, the mindflayer would have had enough time, to take the artifact from SH, since they had time, to infect all those people in teh ship with tadpoles after teh raid from teh prologue.
