Finding the Perfect Flames: Building a Pyro DPS Artifact Set
Getting the best artifacts for your Pyro DPS character is a bit like crafting a perfect flame: it takes patience, focus, and a bit of luck! Let’s break down the process of finding those amazing artifacts with the right substats to make your character a fiery powerhouse.
1. Know Your Target:
First, you need to know what you’re aiming for. For a Pyro DPS, you’ll typically want to focus on these two artifact sets:
- Crimson Witch of Flames: This 4-piece set is the classic choice for Pyro DPS, boosting Pyro damage significantly and providing a critical damage bonus for your elemental reactions.
- Wanderer’s Troupe: This 2-piece set offers a bonus to your character’s attack, which is crucial for dealing high damage. It’s often paired with Crimson Witch or another 2-piece set for extra benefits.
2. Prioritize the Right Stats:
-
Main Stats:
- Flower (HP): Always go for Flat HP.
- Feather (ATK): Always go for Flat ATK.
- Sands (Clock): Always go for ATK%.
- Goblet (Cup): Choose Pyro Damage Bonus%.
- Circlet (Hat): This is where you have choices:
- Critical Rate%: This is essential for consistent crits.
- Critical Damage%: If your Critical Rate is already high, this can boost damage further.
-
Substats: This is where the real fun (and frustration) begins. You’ll want to prioritize these substats in this order:
- Critical Rate% and Critical Damage%: The heart of your DPS build!
- ATK%: Boosts your base attack.
- Elemental Mastery (EM): Important for vaporize/melt reactions.
- Energy Recharge: Needed to build energy quickly for your burst.
- Flat ATK & Flat HP: Less important but still offer some benefits.
3. The Grind Begins:
- Domain of the Crimson Witch: The best place to farm the Crimson Witch set. It’s a challenge, but the rewards are worth it.
- Domain of the Wanderer: Get your Wanderer’s Troupe pieces here.
- Artifact Strongbox: Use your Resin to get more artifact drops, but it can be a bit random.
4. The Art of Refinement:
Once you have decent artifacts, it’s time to refine them. This uses Mora and upgrade materials, and it’s a long-term process.
- Focus on the most important pieces first: Your Sands, Goblet, and Circlet should be your highest priority.
- Keep your eyes peeled: As you farm, you might find even better substats to replace those on your current artifacts. Don’t be afraid to start fresh!
5. Patience is Key:
Artifact farming is a marathon, not a sprint. It can take weeks, or even months, to find the perfect set. Don’t give up! Keep grinding, and eventually, you’ll have a Pyro DPS ready to unleash hellfire!
Remember: The optimal artifact setup can change based on your specific character and team composition. Don’t be afraid to experiment and adjust your build as needed. Good luck on your journey to Pyro mastery!
