Okay, let’s talk about finding the best artifacts for your Dendro characters!
First, it’s important to understand that everyone has different preferences and playstyles. There’s no single "best" artifact set for every character. It all depends on how you want to build your character and what team you’re using them in.
Understanding the Basics
There are two main categories of artifacts:
- Artifact Sets: These give unique bonuses when you equip two or more pieces from the same set. For example, the "Deepwood Memories" set increases your Elemental Mastery and Dendro damage.
- Artifact Substats: These are the little extra bonuses that appear on each artifact piece. Some examples include:
- ATK%: Increases your character’s attack power.
- Elemental Mastery: Boosts your ability to trigger Elemental Reactions.
- Crit Rate/Crit DMG: Improves your chances of dealing critical hits and the damage they do.
- Energy Recharge: Increases how quickly your character gains energy for their Elemental Burst.
Choosing the Right Set
Here are some popular artifact sets for Dendro characters:
- Deepwood Memories (4-Piece Set): Increases Dendro damage and reduces the enemy’s Dendro Resistance. This is a great set for dealing massive Dendro damage and is especially good with characters like Nahida or Tighnari.
- Gilded Dreams (4-Piece Set): Increases Elemental Mastery and boosts the damage of all elements based on your Elemental Mastery. This set is good for characters who use a lot of Elemental Reactions and want to boost the damage of all the elements in their team.
- Wanderer’s Troupe (2-Piece Set) + Deepwood Memories (2-Piece Set): This combination gives you the Dendro Damage bonus and increased ATK%. This is a good option for characters who want both strong Dendro damage and a good attack boost.
Substats: What to Look For
When choosing substats, you want to prioritize:
- Elemental Mastery: This is crucial for Dendro characters because it increases the damage of Elemental Reactions like Aggravate and Spread.
- Crit Rate and Crit DMG: You want to find a balance between these two to maximize your critical hit damage. A good rule of thumb is to aim for a 1:2 ratio (for example, 50% Crit Rate and 100% Crit DMG).
- ATK%: Increases your character’s base attack power.
- Energy Recharge: This is important if you want your Elemental Burst to be ready more often, especially for characters with high energy costs.
Farming Tips
- Artifact Domains: The best way to get good artifacts is by farming them in special domains. These domains are designed to drop artifacts for specific sets and have different levels of difficulty.
- Resin: Each run in an artifact domain consumes Resin, a resource that regenerates over time. Be strategic about how you use Resin!
- Patience: It can take a lot of time and effort to get good artifact sets. Don’t be discouraged if it takes a while. Just keep farming and you’ll eventually get the pieces you need.
Remember:
- There’s no such thing as a perfect artifact set. You’ll always have to make compromises.
- Experiment with different artifact sets and substats to see what works best for you and your team!
- Have fun! Building characters can be a rewarding experience.
I hope this helps you find the best artifacts for your Dendro characters. Happy farming!
