Building Nahida for Maximum Dendro Power
Nahida, the wise and powerful Dendro Archon, is a fantastic character for any team that utilizes the power of Dendro reactions. To get the most out of her, we need to build her with artifacts that maximize her Dendro damage output. Here’s a breakdown of the best artifact sets for Nahida, and how to find them:
The Ideal Set: Deepwood Memories
This 4-piece set is specifically designed to boost Dendro damage, making it the obvious choice for Nahida. It provides a significant 15% Dendro damage bonus, and the most important part: it reduces the Dendro resistance of enemies by 30% for 8 seconds when you trigger a reaction with Dendro. This means your entire team will deal more Dendro damage, making it incredibly potent for teams like Hyperbloom or Aggravate.
How to Find Deepwood Memories:
- Domain: You’ll find Deepwood Memories in the "Vourukasha’s Fane" domain, located in the Sumeru rainforest region.
- Difficulty: The domain has three difficulties: Normal, Hard, and Very Hard. The higher the difficulty, the higher the chance of getting 5-star artifacts.
- Recommended Team: Bring characters with strong Dendro or Geo abilities to help you deal with the domain’s enemies.
Other Options: Gilded Dreams
If you’re struggling to get good Deepwood Memories artifacts, the 4-piece Gilded Dreams set can be a decent alternative. It provides a 14% Dendro damage bonus and a 14% Elemental damage bonus for your chosen element. This works well for Nahida, as it boosts both her Dendro damage and her overall damage output.
Important Note: Gilded Dreams won’t provide the same level of Dendro damage boost as Deepwood Memories, and it lacks the enemy resistance reduction. It’s a fallback option, especially in the early stages of your artifact farming journey.
Artifact Stat Priorities:
No matter which set you choose, these are the main stats you want to prioritize on your artifacts:
- Dendro Damage Bonus: This is your primary focus for maximizing Nahida’s damage.
- Elemental Mastery: This stat is crucial for Nahida as it significantly amplifies the damage of Dendro reactions like Aggravate and Hyperbloom.
- Critical Rate/Critical Damage: These stats boost your overall damage output by increasing the chance of critical hits and the amount of damage they deal.
- Energy Recharge: This helps Nahida generate enough energy to use her Elemental Burst more frequently.
Finding the Right Artifacts:
- Patience is Key: Finding the perfect artifact set can take time. Don’t get discouraged if you don’t get the ideal pieces immediately. Keep farming the domain regularly and gradually improve your artifacts.
- Sub-stats: Pay attention to the sub-stats on your artifacts. You want to look for sub-stats that increase Dendro damage, Elemental Mastery, Critical Rate, Critical Damage, or Energy Recharge.
- Artifact Optimization: Once you have a good set of artifacts, you can use the "Artifact Enhancement" system to further improve their stats.
Remember: Building a great Nahida isn’t just about the artifacts. Her talents, weapon, and the team composition are all crucial factors in maximizing her potential. Good luck, and happy artifact farming!
