Best artifacts for building a Cryo DPS Klee team in Genshin Impact

Okay, let’s talk about building a Cryo DPS Klee! This is a fun and powerful team composition that takes advantage of Klee’s amazing Pyro damage and Cryo’s ability to freeze enemies.

The Goal: Maximize Cryo Damage and Support Klee’s Attack

Remember, we want to make Klee hit like a truck with Cryo damage, and that means focusing on two key areas:

Cryo Damage Bonus: This is the most important stat to boost Klee’s Cryo attacks.
Attack: This is vital for maximizing Klee’s overall damage output, including her Pyro attacks, since she’s still primarily a Pyro character.

Artifact Sets

Here’s a breakdown of the best artifact sets to achieve our goal:

Blizzard Strayer (4-Piece): This is the core of your Cryo DPS Klee build. It provides a whopping 15% Cryo Damage Bonus and a 20% Cryo Damage Bonus when you hit a frozen enemy. This is huge!
Gladiator’s Finale (2-Piece) / Shimenawa’s Reminiscence (2-Piece): These are your go-to choices for the remaining two artifact slots.
- Gladiator’s Finale (2-Piece): Offers a simple 18% Attack Bonus, which is a great boost for Klee’s overall damage.
- Shimenawa’s Reminiscence (2-Piece): Provides a 18% Attack Bonus, but requires you to use Elemental Skills before using your Elemental Burst. This can be a bit tricky, but it’s worth considering if you can manage it.

Sub-Stats to Look For

Now, let’s talk about the sub-stats on your artifacts:

Cryo Damage Bonus: This is your highest priority. The more, the better!
Attack%: This is second in line. You want to make sure Klee’s base attack is high enough to compliment her Cryo damage.
Critical Rate/Critical Damage: These are essential for maximizing damage output on both Cryo and Pyro attacks.
Energy Recharge: This is important for Klee’s Elemental Burst uptime, especially if you’re running a team with Cryo support.

Artifact Farming:

Blizzard Strayer: Found in the Peak of Vindagnyr domain.
Gladiator’s Finale: Found in the Hidden Palace of Liyue.
Shimenawa’s Reminiscence: Found in the Momiji-Dyed Court domain.

Team Composition

Here’s a sample team composition:

Klee (Cryo DPS): Our main damage dealer.
Rosaria: A Cryo support with great Cryo damage and a Cryo damage bonus on her Elemental Skill.
Diona: Provides a shield, Cryo application, and Energy Recharge to the team.
Bennett: Offers massive attack buffs and healing with his Elemental Burst.

Tips for Success

Freezing: Use Rosaria and Diona to consistently freeze enemies, maximizing the Cryo Damage Bonus from Blizzard Strayer.
Rotation: Utilize Rosaria’s Elemental Skill, Diona’s Elemental Skill/Burst, then Bennett’s Burst, followed by Klee’s Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst.
Optimize Sub-Stats: Don’t be afraid to farm for a long time to get good sub-stats on your artifacts.

Remember, this is just a starting point. Feel free to experiment with different team compositions and artifacts to find what works best for your playstyle!
