Building the Perfect Raiden Shogun: A Guide to Artifact Farming
The Raiden Shogun, also known as Ei, is a powerful Electro character in Genshin Impact who thrives on her ability to deal consistent damage. Building her right means finding the perfect artifacts that amplify her strengths.
Currently, the optimal artifact set for Raiden Shogun is a mix of "Thundering Fury" and "Emblem of Severed Fate". Here’s a breakdown of why and how to get these artifacts effectively:
The Power of Two Sets:
- Thundering Fury (2 Pieces): This set boosts Electro damage by 15%. This is crucial for Raiden Shogun, as it enhances her core ability to inflict Electro damage.
- Emblem of Severed Fate (2 Pieces): This set increases your Energy Recharge by 20%. Raiden Shogun relies heavily on her Elemental Burst, which is the ultimate source of her damage. This boost ensures you can use her Burst more often.
Why This Combo Works:
- Maximizing Electro Damage: Combining these sets gives you a substantial increase in Electro damage and energy recharge, ensuring your Raiden Shogun deals massive Electro damage frequently.
- Synergistic Perks: Each set amplifies the other, creating a powerful cycle: more energy recharge means you use your Burst more often, which increases your Electro damage, allowing you to unleash more bursts and deal even more damage.
The Perfect Artifact Stats:
Now, let’s talk about the specific stats you want on your artifacts:
- Sands of Eon: Energy Recharge (prioritize this over Attack% for Raiden Shogun).
- Goblet of Eonothem: Electro Damage Bonus.
- Circlet of Logos: Critical Rate or Critical Damage (depending on your current build).
- Sub-Stats: Prioritize Energy Recharge, Critical Rate, Critical Damage, and Attack%.
The Current Domain Rotation:
You can find both "Thundering Fury" and "Emblem of Severed Fate" artifacts in the "Momiji-Dyed Court" domain which is located in Inazuma. The domain has three difficulty levels:
- Level 0: Recommended for lower-level players, drops 4-star artifacts.
- Level 1: Suitable for mid-game players, drops 4-star and 5-star artifacts.
- Level 2: The ideal level for farming 5-star artifacts, drops 4-star and 5-star artifacts.
Optimizing Your Farming:
- Resin Management: Don’t waste resin! Focus on farming the "Momiji-Dyed Court" domain at Level 2 for maximum 5-star artifact drops.
- Strategic Drops: The "Momiji-Dyed Court" domain has different drops based on the day of the week, so check the Genshin Impact map for specific days.
- Utilize the "Refine" Function: If you’re lucky enough to get good 5-star artifacts, refine their sub-stats to get even better perks!
Don’t Give Up!
Finding the perfect set of artifacts for Raiden Shogun can be a challenge, requiring patience and dedication. Keep farming, refining, and refining again until you have the perfect set for your Electro powerhouse!
