Finding the Best Artifacts for Kazuha at Lower AR: A Guide for Beginners
Getting the perfect artifact set for Kazuha can be a bit tricky, especially at lower Adventure Ranks (AR). You might not have access to the best domains, and getting good rolls on your artifacts can be a slow process. But don’t worry! This guide will help you find decent artifact sets that will boost Kazuha’s abilities without spending hours grinding.
Understanding Kazuha’s Role:
Kazuha is a versatile character, excelling at crowd control, buffing your team’s damage, and even dealing decent damage himself. To maximize his potential, you need artifacts that focus on:
- Elemental Mastery: This stat is the most important for Kazuha, as it boosts his damage from both his Elemental Skill (E) and Burst (Q), as well as the damage of your team members when they use their Elemental Reactions.
- Anemo Damage Bonus: Increases Kazuha’s personal damage output, especially from his burst.
- Energy Recharge: This stat allows Kazuha to recharge his Elemental Burst faster, making him able to use it more frequently.
Early Game Artifact Sets:
At lower AR, you’ll likely be farming the "Adventurer" set, which gives a decent amount of HP, Attack, and Defense. While not ideal for Kazuha, they offer a good starting point. Focus on artifacts that have Elemental Mastery as a main stat or substat, as this is the most valuable stat for him early on.
As you progress, you’ll have access to more powerful sets:
- "Viridescent Venerer": This set is great for Kazuha, as it increases his Swirl damage and decreases enemy resistance to the element of his Swirl. However, the domain it drops from (Valley of Remembrance) unlocks at AR 45.
- "Gilded Dreams": This set increases both Elemental Mastery and Elemental Damage, making it a very potent option for Kazuha. The domain (Momiji-Dyed Court) unlocks at AR 45, so you won’t be able to farm it early on.
Finding the Right Artifacts:
- Artifact Domains: Focus on domains that offer artifacts with Elemental Mastery as a main stat, such as the "Thundering Fury" domain (for Goblet artifacts).
- Substats: Aim for artifacts with good substats like Elemental Mastery, Energy Recharge, Attack%, or Crit Rate/Damage.
- Prioritizing Substats: Even though Kazuha needs Elemental Mastery, remember that substats like Energy Recharge and Crit Rate/Damage are still crucial for maximizing his overall damage potential.
- Don’t be Afraid to Use 4-Star Artifacts: Don’t be discouraged if you don’t have 5-star artifacts with great substats. 4-star artifacts can be just as powerful, especially when you roll good substats on them.
Remember:
- Don’t worry about getting the perfect artifact set right away. Focus on getting the best artifacts you can at your current AR.
- You can always upgrade your artifacts later, so don’t be afraid to use artifacts that might not be ideal for now.
- Have fun with the game, and enjoy building your own unique Kazuha!
