Farming for the Crimson Witch of Flames artifact set can be a bit of a challenge, but with the right strategy, you can get those fiery artifacts flowing into your inventory!
1. Prioritize Domains:
- The Domain of the Crimson Witch of Flames is your main source for these artifacts. It’s located in the Liyue region, specifically in the southeastern part of the Guili Plains. This domain is a weekly reset domain, meaning you can only run it once a week for the best rewards.
- Choose your difficulty wisely: Higher difficulties provide better artifact stats but also increase the chance of enemies being tougher. Starting at a lower difficulty and working your way up as your characters get stronger is a good idea.
2. Run the Domain Smartly:
- Focus on specific pieces: Don’t waste resin on pieces you don’t need. If you’re looking for a Flower or Plume for your Pyro DPS, target those specific artifact slots in the domain.
- Use your resin strategically: If you’re short on resin, save it for this domain. You’ll want to get the most out of your weekly reset.
3. Understand the Set Bonuses:
- 2-Piece Bonus: Increases Pyro DMG Bonus by 15%. This bonus is very important for maximizing your Pyro DPS’s damage output.
- 4-Piece Bonus: Increases the character’s Overloaded and Burning damage by 40% and their Vaporize and Melt damage by 15%. This bonus is particularly good for characters that deal a lot of damage using these reactions.
4. Don’t Be Afraid of Artifact Refinement:
- Artifacts can be upgraded! You can use artifact enhancement materials to increase the stats of your artifacts, making them even better.
- Focus on the right stats: Prioritize the main stat that will benefit your Pyro character the most, such as Pyro DMG Bonus, ATK%, or CRIT Rate/DMG.
- Don’t forget substats: Keep an eye out for substats that boost your character’s damage, such as ATK%, CRIT Rate, CRIT DMG, and Elemental DMG Bonus.
5. Be Patient and Persistent:
- Farming artifacts takes time. You might not get the perfect set right away.
- Don’t get discouraged: Keep running the domain, and eventually, you’ll start getting those good drops.
Bonus Tip: If you’re really struggling to get a specific artifact, try using the "Artifact Strongbox" feature in the Paimon’s Bargains shop. It allows you to trade unwanted artifacts for a chance to get one you need.
Remember, the key to efficient artifact farming is to be strategic, patient, and persistent! Just keep running the Crimson Witch of Flames domain and eventually, you’ll have that fiery set ready to burn through those enemies.
