Crafting the Perfect Dendro Ensemble: A Guide to Artifact Farming
So you’ve got a cool Dendro character and you want to make them the absolute best they can be? That means getting their hands on some seriously good artifacts! But with so many different sets and stats, where do you even start? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered.
Understanding the Goal:
First, let’s talk about what we’re aiming for. Dendro characters thrive on two key stats: Elemental Mastery (EM) and Dendro Damage Bonus.
- Elemental Mastery amplifies the damage from Elemental Reactions, especially the powerful "Bloom" reaction that Dendro characters excel at.
- Dendro Damage Bonus boosts the base damage of Dendro attacks, making them hit harder.
The Artifact Sets:
Here are some popular artifact sets for Dendro characters:
- Deepwood Memories (4-Piece): This set is the undisputed king for Dendro DPS characters. It increases Dendro damage and reduces the enemy’s Dendro resistance, making your Dendro attacks hit even harder.
- Gilded Dreams (4-Piece): If you’re focused on Elemental Mastery, this set is your go-to. It boosts both EM and damage bonuses for the element you have the most of. Since you’re likely building Dendro, it’ll be a fantastic choice!
- Wanderer’s Troupe (2-Piece) + Gilded Dreams (2-Piece): This hybrid set is great for characters who benefit from both high EM and a decent Dendro damage bonus. You can also use it to mix and match other 2-piece sets for specific character builds.
Choosing the Right Set:
So how do you decide which set is best for your character? It depends on their role:
- Main DPS: Deepwood Memories is usually the top choice for dealing the most Dendro damage.
- Support: Gilded Dreams or the hybrid set is preferred to maximize your EM and boost your teammates’ Elemental Reactions.
Where to Farm:
Now that you know which sets to aim for, you need to know where to find them!
- Deepwood Memories: Found in the Vourukasha’s Domain in Sumeru.
- Gilded Dreams: Found in the Domain of Blessing: Realm of Faraway Stars in Sumeru.
- Wanderer’s Troupe: Found in the Valley of Remembrance in Liyue.
The Grind for Perfection:
Remember, finding good artifacts is a long process! It involves a lot of grinding domains, rolling for good substats, and praying to the RNG gods.
Tips for Artifact Farming:
- Use your resin wisely: Don’t waste your resin on domains that don’t give you the sets you need.
- Focus on desired substats: Keep an eye out for artifacts with good substats like Elemental Mastery, Crit Rate/Damage, and Energy Recharge.
- Upgrade carefully: Only upgrade artifacts with good potential. Don’t waste your resources on mediocre ones.
Don’t Give Up!
Artifact farming can be frustrating, but remember: patience and persistence are key! With a little effort, you’ll eventually equip your Dendro character with an artifact set that will make them a true force on the battlefield.
