Okay, so you want to build a Pyro DPS character in Genshin Impact with a focus on high crit rate, right? That’s a great goal, as it’ll help you deal big damage consistently! Let’s break down the best artifact sets and their advantages for you:
1. Crimson Witch of Flames (4-Piece Set): This is the undisputed king for Pyro DPS. Here’s why:
- 2-Piece Bonus: Increases Pyro damage by 15%. This is a huge boost to your Pyro attacks right off the bat.
- 4-Piece Bonus: Increases your character’s Overload and Burning damage by 40% and Vaporize and Melt damage by 15% after using an Elemental Skill. This makes your Pyro reactions absolutely insane, giving you the best damage output. You’ll be melting and vaporizing everything in sight!
2. Wanderer’s Troupe (2-Piece) + Crimson Witch of Flames (2-Piece): This is a great option if you want to balance out your crit rate with some additional damage.
- Wanderer’s Troupe (2-Piece): Increases your character’s ATK by 18%. This provides a solid damage boost without sacrificing the power of Crimson Witch.
3. Crimson Witch of Flames (2-Piece) + Gladiator’s Finale (2-Piece): This is another solid option for maximizing damage, but it might be harder to obtain.
- Gladiator’s Finale (2-Piece): Increases your character’s ATK by 18%. Similar to Wanderer’s Troupe, this provides a strong boost to your damage output.
4. Shimenawa’s Reminiscence (4-Piece): While not strictly focused on Pyro, this set can be a great option for certain characters.
- 4-Piece Bonus: Increases ATK by 50% of your character’s Energy Recharge. This can provide a massive ATK bonus if you’re running a build with high Energy Recharge. This set can be particularly good for characters like Hu Tao who benefit from high base ATK and Energy Recharge.
Focusing on Crit Rate:
- Artifact Substats: When you’re hunting for artifacts, you’ll want to prioritize Crit Rate as your first substat. Look for artifacts with at least 5% Crit Rate.
- Weapon Choices: Choose a weapon that offers a good amount of Crit Rate as its secondary stat. For example, the Staff of Homa, or the Primordial Jade Winged-Spear are excellent options.
- Goblet of Flame: For the Goblet of Flame (the artifact slot that determines elemental damage bonus), make sure you pick the Pyro Damage Bonus option. This is essential for maximizing your Pyro damage.
Important Considerations:
- Character Abilities: Different characters have different skills and abilities that will influence your artifact choices. For example, Diluc benefits greatly from Crimson Witch, while Hu Tao may be better suited for Shimenawa’s Reminiscence.
- Team Composition: The other characters in your team will also influence your choices. If you have a Hydro character, you’ll want to focus on Vaporize reactions, so you may want to prioritize Crimson Witch.
Remember, building the perfect artifact set takes time and patience. You’ll need to keep farming those domains and be picky about the substats you’re looking for. But with the right strategy, you can create a Pyro DPS powerhouse that melts anything in their path! Good luck!
