Finding the Perfect Gear for Raiden Shogun: A Guide to Artifacts in Inazuma
Raiden Shogun, the Electro Archon, is a powerful force in Genshin Impact. To unleash her true potential, you need to equip her with the right artifacts. Here’s a breakdown of the best artifacts for her, how to get them, and what to look for:
The Must-Have Sets:
-
"Emblem of Severed Fate" is the absolute best set for Raiden Shogun. This 4-piece set gives her:
- 15% Energy Recharge: This is crucial for Raiden Shogun as she relies heavily on her Elemental Burst.
- 25% Bonus Electro DMG: Boosts her Electro damage output significantly.
- Extra Energy Recharge (based on Energy Recharge): For every 100% Energy Recharge you have, you gain a 25% bonus Electro damage increase. So, the more Energy Recharge you have, the stronger her Electro attacks become.
-
"Thundering Fury" is another good option, especially if you want to focus on dealing more Electro damage. This 4-piece set grants:
- 15% Electro DMG Bonus: Boosts her Electro damage.
- An additional 20% Electro DMG bonus for a few seconds after triggering an Elemental Reaction: This makes her very powerful in team compositions that utilize Electro reactions like Electro-Charged or Superconduct.
Where to Find These Sets:
- Emblem of Severed Fate: Farmed in the "Momiji-Dyed Court" domain, located in the Seirai Island region.
- Thundering Fury: Farmed in the "The Valley of Remembrance" domain, located in the Inazuma region.
Artifact Stats to Focus On:
- Energy Recharge: This is the most important stat for Raiden Shogun, as it allows her to use her Elemental Burst more often. Aim for at least 180% Energy Recharge, but more is always better.
- Electro DMG Bonus: This will increase her damage output on Electro attacks, making her hit harder.
- ATK%: Increases Raiden Shogun’s overall attack power.
- Critical Rate/Critical DMG: These stats help her deal more consistent damage, but are less important compared to Energy Recharge and Electro DMG Bonus.
The Sub-Stat Game:
While the main stats are important, the sub-stats on your artifacts are also crucial. When choosing artifacts, look for:
- Energy Recharge: This is always a great sub-stat for Raiden Shogun.
- Electro DMG Bonus: Another highly valuable sub-stat.
- ATK%: Increases her overall attack.
- Critical Rate/Critical DMG: These can help her deal more damage, but less important than other options.
- Flat ATK: Avoid this sub-stat, as it becomes less effective at higher levels.
Tips for Getting the Best Artifacts:
- Use Resin wisely: Use your Original Resin and Condensed Resin efficiently on domains that provide the best artifacts for Raiden Shogun.
- Don’t be afraid to farm: Getting good artifacts can take time, so be patient and keep farming.
- Focus on one artifact set first: Start by focusing on either Emblem of Severed Fate or Thundering Fury, and then work on getting the best sub-stats.
- Use the Artifact Strongbox: The Artifact Strongbox allows you to exchange unwanted artifacts for more desirable ones.
Important Notes:
- Build flexibility: While the above recommendations are generally considered best, you can adjust your build based on your team composition and playstyle.
- Practice makes perfect: Experiment with different artifact combinations and see what works best for you!
Remember, getting the perfect artifact set is a long-term process. Be patient, keep farming, and enjoy building your Raiden Shogun into a powerful and unstoppable force!
