Getting the Perfect Flames for Hu Tao: A Guide to Farming Crimson Witch of Flames
Hu Tao, the fiery ghost girl, thrives on dealing Pyro damage. To maximize her potential, you need a strong Crimson Witch of Flames set. This guide will help you farm this powerful artifact set and equip your Hu Tao for fiery glory!
Understanding the Set Bonuses:
The Crimson Witch of Flames set is all about amplifying your Pyro damage. Here’s the breakdown:
- 2-Piece Bonus: +15% Pyro DMG Bonus. This is a solid boost for Hu Tao’s already impressive Pyro attacks.
- 4-Piece Bonus: Increases your Pyro DMG by 15% and increases your Vaporize and Melt damage by 40% when your elemental skill is active. This bonus is crucial for maximizing Hu Tao’s damage output. She uses her elemental skill, "Guide to Afterlife," to trigger Vaporize reactions for massive damage.
Where to Find the Crimson Witch of Flames:
You can find this set in the Domain of Guyun, located on the eastern side of Liyue. This domain has three different artifact sets that can drop, but you’re focused on Crimson Witch of Flames. Keep grinding this domain to collect those sweet, fiery artifacts!
Important Stats to Look For:
- Sands of Eon: HP% is king for Hu Tao. She wants to maximize her HP to boost her attack.
- Goblet of Eonothem: Pyro DMG Bonus. This boosts Hu Tao’s Pyro damage output significantly.
- Circlet of Logos: Crit Rate or Crit DMG. You’ll need a balance of both for consistent crits.
- Sub-Stats: Focus on HP%, Crit Rate, Crit DMG, and Pyro DMG Bonus. These are the most valuable sub-stats for Hu Tao.
Optimizing Your Artifact Farm:
- Resin Management: Don’t waste resin! Farm the domain when you have a full resin bar and be sure to use the Condensed Resin for better artifact drops.
- Artifact Enhancement: Once you have a decent set, focus on enhancing the best pieces to level 20 or even 20. It’s a long process, but the rewards are worth it.
- Artifact Rerolled: Sometimes, the artifact stats you get aren’t ideal. Use Mystic Enhancement Ore to reroll sub-stats, hoping for a better roll.
Building a Powerful Hu Tao:
- Weapon: Staff of Homa is the best-in-slot weapon, boosting HP and providing a hefty attack boost. If you don’t have that, Dragon’s Bane and Primordial Jade Winged-Spear are good alternatives.
- Talents: Focus on leveling her Elemental Skill, "Guide to Afterlife", and her Elemental Burst, "Spirit Soother".
- Team Composition: Pair Hu Tao with other strong Pyro characters or Hydro characters to trigger Vaporize. Consider Xingqiu, Yelan, or even Xiangling!
Patience is Key:
Farming for the perfect artifact set takes time. Don’t get discouraged if it takes a while to find the perfect pieces. Keep at it, and you’ll be rewarded with a powerful Hu Tao ready to unleash fiery justice!
