Well... there goes my Kaveh funds.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Good news is I finally have Gorō to buff my WIP Geo characters, I'm married to Chiori now, and she even let me pick up her favorite accessory from the smithie. Bad news is if Kaveh shows up any time soon on a limited banner, I'm fucked for his constellations.
Alhaitham can sit at C0 for another year. Assbutt fought me tooth and nail the first time to come home. And he's 100% viable at C0 with a 3☆ weapon.

Losing the 50/50
He was right there.
So close yet so far.
And yet Diluc was pushed forward.
He could only sit there in devastation while watching them frantically try to get more primogems to try and get him to come home.
Now they were yelling at Diluc, and blaming him for them losing the 50/50.
They were wrongfully blaming Diluc, they knew that. But they just didn't want to accept that they lost the 50/50, and no less to DILUC. They said if they lost the 50/50, they wanted to lose to Qiqi or Keching.
"You! Why?! What did I ever do to you?! I already have Kaeya! I don't nEED PYRO KAEYA!" "Don't call me a Pyro version of that annoying ass man." The red haired man huffed, "Well that's whatchu are! You're his brother or whatever! Still! I wanted Xiao! I was SUPPOSED to have XIAO! He was supposed to come home! But no! You just HAD to take his place, didn't you?!" They yelled, glaring grabbing their own hair "Halo, calm down.. It's not his fault-" Albedo tried to cut it, "Yes it IS his fault! He could've not come! He could've let Xiao come home! Or at least have Qiqi or Keching go in his place but NOoooooOoo! He wanted to ruin it!" They shook their head "my disappointment is immeasurable and my entire life has been ruined." They growled, "That's an over exaggeration…" The blonde said.
"I want to tHROW YOU! I WANT TO HATE CRIME YOU! I WANT TO CHOKE YOU! WHY CAN'T I TRADE YOU IN FOR MY FUCKING ADEPTUS?!" They screamed, starting to tear up "it's just a game, it's not the end of the world-" Diluc tried to speak but got talked over "Yes! It IS the end of the world! I DON'T HAVE THE MEANS TO BE ABLE TO SPEND THOUSANDS ON THIS! I'M FUCKING BROKE! I'M WORSE THAN POVERTY!" "Why not blame Albedo?!" Diluc asked, "Hey! I didn't do anything." Albedo said in defense, "HE'S the one who made you get his first Constellation. Had you of lost that 50/50, you'd have Xiao by now. But sure, let's keep blaming me. Even when it was Albedo's banner that you won the 50/50 twice on." Diluc crossed him arms.
"I'm still salty about that, because I absolutely know I would've gotten Xiao if I didn't get 'Bedo's Constellation. I'd rather C0 Albedo and Qiqi with a guarantee of Xiao C1 Albedo and no Xiao. But you're STILL the one who showed up when it was time for Xiao to come home!" They said with a huff, tears starting to fall down their face.
"You'll get him, you're good at collecting things when you need to." Albedo said, wrapping his arms around them and holding them close, "I'll waste 100 dollars from Christmas money if I have to.." They said with a small sniffle, "that should give me around 81 more pulls, after throwing in I think… 40 from spending 2 sets of 15 dollars- with discounts- for more primos.." They muttered, leaning into the blonde's touch.
Yun Jin approached them quietly, "you at least have me. You did say you wanted me, so you at least have me even if you don't have that Gorou boy." She said and Halo nodded some "you're Constellation as well…" They said, "But… Xiao.."
That night Halo cried themself to sleep, and that hurt both Xiao and Albedo. The alchemist had seen Halo cry before, but it was in happiness when they had won their first 5 star, him. They cried for an hour and ran around with him just messing around. They worked hard to get him to be their highest level, and they were always proud to say it. Until they had to get others to level 80 to pass the AR Ascension 3. But they worked on getting him artifacts first, along with Xiao's. He figured they had enough materials to get Xiao to level 60-80, but nothing to upgrade Talents yet.
He was determined to get Xiao home, even if that meant breaking the game. He's Teyvat's best alchemist (save for his creator), he can surely do it.
And that he did. He didn't know the Adeptus personally, but Halo talked about him nonstop as well as explaining the reason for fighting the primo geovishap. Albedo questioned it since normally they never went anywhere NEAR that thing. They explained how they needed about 96 Juvenile Jade for Xiao, and 169 or so Qingxin flowers.
Then they went to a few domains to collect artifacts, only ever 4 stars though since they weren't strong enough to get 5 stars- aside from when a friend of theirs joined and helped them.
Once Halo had shut down the game and went to bed, Albedo started searching for a way to break the game. Miraculously, he found a way. He got into the system and hummed to himself "They have around… 18 or so wishes after Diluc? Yes. They planned on getting the one that will give them around… 81 wishes, 6,480 Genesis crystals, you're given an extra of that on first purchase makes 12,960… that gives 12,960 and you need 160 per wish… yes yes 81 wishes. 81 plus 18 is 99… that SHOULD ensure getting Xiao since it's supposed to be guaranteed the promotional character if you look the 50/50.." He muttered to himself.
"Forget paying 100 dollars for primogems, they can use that money on other things that are more important." He said, taking the 6,480 primogem purchase along with the extra 6,480 given and opens the Welkin Moon page. "I'll just break the game and give it to them for free." He said, putting it with the 90 primogems they already get daily, "There. And if this fails… I'll be doing some not so polite things." He closed the page and hummed to himself as he went to bed.
The next day, Halo had opened the game when they got home, hitting the X on their controller for the welkon moon until they realized there was a second set of primogems beside the 90 primos they already got. "Huh??" They tilted their head, studying the amount. 12,960.
They gasped and went into the shop, getting 82 intertwined fates "no way… how? There's no way I got that magically! I didn't even buy it yet!" They went through the wishes, gasping when they got Chongyun "Okay! Finally got him! Good I didn't need to pull on Childe's banner." They grinned, going through each 10 wish and holding their breath every time a color showed up. It turned purple but at first they'd mistake it for gold. They typed down on their wish calculator on their phone how many wishes they were in. They had done a few single pulls to get to 20 and went from there "60 pulls… okay almost there.." They nodded. 
Meanwhile, Albedo smiled knowingly, watching as everything went down.
The next 10 pull made 70, and thats when the star became gigantic and golden. They gasped and bounced in their seat "PLEASE! XIAO! PLEASE COME HOME! I'M SUPPOSED TO BE GUARANTEED YOU NOW!" They yelled, clicking through the things they received, recording on their phone all the while. That's when the shadow appeared.
I'll be quick to note that their younger sister was there as well- Aife.
The shadow of Xiao's splash art came and hadn't even lit up when they screamed "XIAO!! HE'S HOME! HE'S HERE! MOM!!" They got uo and raced into their moms room "I GOT HIM! HE'S HOME! I HAVE NO CLUE HOW BUT HE'S HOME!" They said excitedly, crying just like they did when they got Albedo.
They ran as fast as they could back to the couch and took a few pictures. "That's amazing how you knew it was him before even seen him fully- like.. just when his art was blacked out." "Well I've studied his character and everything," They responded, quickly switching out Sucrose and putting Xiao in the party "I'm so sorry Sucrose, I love you." They apologized.
"Finally, it took you long enough. You just took your sweet time, didn't you?" Albedo said as Xiao appeared "Oh hush. It's not like I wanted them to fail the 50/50. The wish thing just didn't let me." Xiao said while crossing his arms. "Well. They have 29 fates left.. are they going to pull again to try and get your constellations?" He hummed, "it only seems fair for both of us to have a constellation." He added, "doubt it. You'd have to be incredibly lucky to get my Constellation with 29 fates." Xiao shook his head.
"True, they don't have enough primogems to get more either. And they can't get more from the…stardust??? Starglitter??? I think it's starglitter… the more common one, the one that doesn't give you characters." Albedo said, that's when the two boys heard them speak.
"What about the rest?" Aife asked, "I'm saving the other 29 pulls. I'm saving for SCARAMOUCHE!" They said proudly, "you don't even know if he's gonna be playable though??" She tilted her head, "I've seen a leak that talked about dataminers seeing some of his data in there. He uses a catalyst, just like I said! He's supposed to come out on version 3.0 so.. I'm saving for him. I have enough time to save since this is version 2.4, but if I tried pulling for.. say.. Shenhe or Zhongli- kinda want Zhongli but the only ones I desperately want are Albedo, Xiao and Scaramouche." They said, "even if I pulled for like Zhongli in the next phase, to be honest I don't think from then to 3.0 would give me enough time to save. Because I need save enough to be able to afford doing 180 pulls in case I lose the 50/50 like with Xiao." They said, "I'm HOPING Scaramouche will be a 4 star for the sole reasoning that it'll be easier to get him that way." They continued and Aife nodded, "Alright then.."
"Welcome home. You have no idea how upset they were," Albedo said and Xiao huffed a bit "I have a small understanding of just how upset they were. Crying, even. But it feels good to finally be here." He said, watching through the screen as Halo got situated. "Unfortunately you won't be up to my level just yet because they don't have EVERYTHING necessary, but we're close. Minus the flowers, we have enough to get you up to 80 like me. And I'm still stuck at Ascension because they aren't AR50 yet," Albedo said, "sucks to suck." "I'm still going to be the highest level though.. They purposely didn't level Xiangling up because wanted me to stay the highest… until they HAD to for AR Ascension. You've got a lot to catch up on." Albedo shrugged and Xiao nodded in agreement, "I can see that."
Halo leveled Xiao all the way to level 64 "level 64 and yet he can kick inazuman enemies asses better than ALBEDO…" They said, "Hey! I'm not MEANT to be a main DPS you idiot!" Albedo huffed, "I try.." "do you always deal with this?" "Kind of… they've complained that razor- at level 60 needing Ascension- does better damage than I do. He's done up to the 800s meanwhile I'm typically stuck at 300s… o think the highest I did was 400??? And once was 1000 or so but solely because of my salad isotoma." Albedo explained, "damn, you're shit at this aren't you?" Xiao asked and Albedo groaned, "I'm supposed to be support.. not DPS… hell, my SWORD gives me higher defense, not attack. I think.my artifacts do the same thing." He said, "they worked hard to get yours sorted out. One of their friends came online who had like… level 90 characters and helped them get some 5 star artifacts and fight Childe… they were able to get my talent from like.. level 6 to 7. They haven't tried fighting him since because the last time they did that before getting help.. I basically died like 5 times in one go… I'm still asking myself how Barbara lasted longer than I did.. and Xiangling.. those two can dodge.." Albedo trailed off, "Well seems I have more 5 stars than you," Xiao said "Oh be quiet.. They have like a whole 5 star set for noblisse Oblige, but if they gave me those, it'd mess up the whole set they have for me because they want to keep the Archaic Petra for the geo damage. They're trying to get some 5 star Archaic Petra artifacts so they can fix everything- they just don't want to remove my Tiara Of frost… which is Clearly the better artifact… over everyone else's." Albedo said with a playful tone, showing the Tiara "don't others have that?" "Yes but mine is better," "pff, imagine having a Tiara as an artifact-" "you have one as well." Albedo interrupted, "damn…" He muttered.
"They make sure everyone has some sort of Tiara. Preferable the Tiara of flame or Tiara Of Frost because those lower the amount of time we are affected by cryo or Pyro. Most of the Pyro characters have the Frost Tiara I think- minus me and I think you." Albedo explained, "just a play style preference I suppose. Because most of the artifacts- minus the tiara- are 4 pieces.. they planned it out as 2 piece set of one artifact, 2 piece set of another artifact and then tiara. Or a 4 piece set and Tiara. They make sure to have artifacts for like Archaic Petra that can go on all other areas so the head piece is open … not sure how to explain it." Albedo hummed, "makes sense since the Tiara is a one piece set though," He added.
 "Oh yeah, that reminds me. Prepare to have all your talents really low for a while. They typically forget the talents exist… it took until I was… around the 70s for them to upgrade my talents." He informed the yaksha and the boy looked st the alchemist in disbelief "That's like… that main way you get damage higher! How can you forget about that?!" He asked and Albedo shrugged, "good question, but that explains why I've done shit damage for so long."
Barbara skipped over "I have!... um.. I think my 3rd Constellation!" She said excitedly, "great now if we can get your 6th one…" Albedo said and Barbara rested her hands on her hips "as long as the rest if you are able to keep me alive that's the only way the 6th Constellation will work," she said and Albedo chuckled, "is she always on the team?" Xiao asked and Albedo nodded "she's the designated healer. Well… the ONLY healer we have. Sucrose can self heal I think… only because of the catalyst she uses, same thing with Barbara." Albedo said, "Halo wanted Qiqi if they were going to lose the 50/50. Qiqi is also a healer I believe." He hummed, "why not Jean though? Jean also heals!" Barbara pointed out and Albedo nodded in agreement.
"I wonder that too, but Halo said it was because they just didn't want her. They had you and in their opinion you're the better option. You don't need to have an ultimate to heal, your skill does the healing. Your ultimate just heals more and faster." He responded and Barbara thought for a minute, "I suppose that makes sense. But they also only have 3 anemo users now. Xiao, Sucrose and the traveler- Lumine." She said.
"Either way, we have Xiao here now. And that's what matters… Now all we have to do is wait for that harbinger- not the ginger one.. I always forget his name. But the puppet one, Scaramouche." Albedk sighed softly, "oh, Childe. He gets on my nerves, I understand why Halo hates him." Xiao said, "They said they had NIGHTMARES about getting Childe 3 times in one 10 wish." "That's horrifying." Xiao shivered some, "that's enough to make me run away." "It sucks because Chongyun was there during Childe's THIRD RERUN. Luckily they got him now, but they never pulled on Childe or Hu Tao once out if fear." Albedo said with a small smirk, "thats dedication though. They're the only person I've seen that skips banners with ease. Everyone else says it's going to be difficult to skip… say… Hu Tao's banner so they can wait for someone else… meanwhile ours is over here acing the banner skips. The only thing that's hard for them to hold back with is wasting primogems on the standard banner." Xiao chuckled a bit.
"Why worry about skipping a 5 star banner when you should be worrying about wasting your primogems on the standard banner whole waiting for the character you want." Albedo joked, "Hey! What weapon is Xiao using?" Xiangling hopper up and asked "Um… Deathmatch." He said, "wait they got the polearm from the battlepass?!" She asked and Albedo nodded, "yes, they bought the gnostic chorus pass, so they also skipped ahead 10 levels. They said they needed the.. 680 primogems." He said, "they leveled it up to 50 like.. 8 days before the battlepass ended." He added, "They wanted to get the Jade winged spear but they only have 29 intertwined fates and they want to save those. Sucks, I won't get my normal spear. But this one seems to do well. I like the perks of using it." Xiao hummed, inspecting the red and white spear.
"They aren't too worried about that though," Albedo said, "why?" Barbara, Xiangling, and Xiao asked in unison, "Because the Jade winged spear is also on the standard banner but with a normal drop rate. The drop rate is just raised on the weapon banner for it right now." He explained, "oh, I never knew that!" Xiangling gasped, "that means I might get to have the Deathmatch spear! Might not be soon but.. one day!" She giggled and hopped up and down a few times. "You have.. that one polearm with the axe thing at the end, back off." The yaksha put his spear behind his back protectively, "oh, still! It looks so cool!" She said with a small huff.
Albedo looked towards the screen, "what do we do now, love?"
"Simple. Grind for more primogems, and race to get more stuff to get Xiao to your level. And also collect Acquaint Fates from the leveling up… also grind to AR50 so I can get you 2 to 90. First we need to get more Hero's Wit." Halo responded, "Blossom of Revelation?" The Alchemist and the Yaksha asked together. 
"Blossom of Revelation." They nodded.
I got Xiao- as my title of my page says- I said I'd write a fic on losing the 50/50 to diluc, but Xiao was TRYING to come home. So I did. I may make a version with reader instead, but this fanfic was a self projection and personal experience. A bit of a coping mechanism, I started this BEFORE I got Xiao.

Genshin impact guide - how to into artifacts
How to into artifacts and team set.
A guide by me for my kawaii @stupidneko and whoever is in need.
Okay, so, as a word of introduction before well start with this long ass post, I’ve never wrote anything like this so be patient with me.
ALSO ENGLISH IS NOT MY FIRST LANGUAGE SO SORRY IN ADVANCE FOR ANY MISTAKES
In my personal opinion artifacts are more important than the characters themselves, they can turn every 4* into a main dps (yes, even amber). 50% of your DMG will come from items, then the other 50% will come from weapon, talents and the character itself, but this is a story for another post.
First let’s take a look at what kind of artifacts do we have. Each and every character have 5 slots for artifacts:
Flower of life - or just flower, for short
Plume of death - feather
Sand of eon - time watch piece
Goblet of Eonothem - goblet
Circlet of Logos - head piece
Each of the pieces have two types of stats: main stats and sub stats. The first two pieces, flower and feather, always have the same main stat.
For flower it's HP
And for feather it's ATK
Then for the rest of them it can be anything, from good main stats like this:
(The following items have high stats because most of them are on max lvl)
Tumblr media
... to less of a good stats, like this:
Tumblr media
Goblets also are the only artifacts that has the possibility to have element DMG bonus as the main stats:
While head piece are the only artifacts that can have CRIT DMG and CRIT rate as a main stats:
Tumblr media
... but they too can have less of a good stats like healing bonus or DEF.
Now, to the sub stats. They can vary from less appealing stats like HP, DEF and Elemental Mastery:
Tumblr media
To a great stats like CRIT DMG, CRIT rate and ATK:
Tumblr media
Unfortunately that's where the tricky part comes in. You cannot chose which substats the item will have. They will randomly appear. All that's left is to cry and pray.
But how do you get more stats on your item? That's simple, you need to level it up! We call it 'enhancing'. Depending on the rarity of your item( they vary from 1* (one start) to 5*(five stars) ) there are different max lvl cap. I'll mostly focus here on the 4* and 5* items. Max lvl cap for 4* is lv16 and for 5* is lv20.
Every artifact you'll get is always lv1. To enhance an artifact you'll need mora and another artifacts. The main stats will grow with each level, but the substats will update every 4th level (so for 5* item new substats will appear on 4th, 8th,12th, 16th and 20th level). Let's take this 5* feather: Bard's Arrow Feather
As all feathers it has ATK as a main stats and quite decent substats. You can enhance it by giving it other artifacts. You can also auto add artifacts of given level (1*, 2* or below, 3* or below and 4* or below)
Or you can chose items manually if you click on the gray '+' icon. Once you do it, there will be a list of artifacts you can use for enhancing. Only items that are not given to any characters will appear here.
Let’s enhance it up by one lvl (there’s limit of pic so I can’t show it ksmosjnwk). As I said, the main stats got better, but the substats didn't change because that was only the 1st level. So now let's enhance it to lv4. Once we choose enough artifacts to enhance it to lv4 we’ll see an information that one new substat will appear. (It doesn’t always have to be new substats. Sometimes the substats that the piece already have can get a boost).
Let's see what I'll get:
Tumblr media
... Yea, I'm going to cry.
But for real now, that's how the artifacts work. Depending on your luck you can get a great items or a depression.
Usually people always aim for artifacts with ATK and CRIT as a both main and substats, but that all depend on you team composition.
But Akii, how do I chose good artifacts for my characters? How do I build my team?
I'm happy you asked. We can have up to 4 character in the team. Usually people aim for a team consisted of one main DPS, one healer and two supports, but ofc that all depends on your style of the game and your needs.
What is the most important in building your team and deciding on artifacts is the characters talents themselves. You absolutely have to check their talents and passives before giving them any artifacts, cause for some of them items with HP as a main stat could be actually good (like Barbara, since her role is only healing she doesn’t make more than 100 dmg on her normal attack but she heals a TONS).
Let's take my team for example, I’ll explain what their talents do and choose artifacts accordingly:
Razor as my main DPS
Qiqi as my healer
Xingqiu as my support
And Xiao that is none of the above but I just got him so I really wanna use him lmao
Usually I'd have Bennett in my team that would work as both healer and support, but yea, Xiao happen. Anyway, back to the topic
Since Razor is my main DPS I am focusing mostly on the DMG he can do. That's why when choosing artifacts for him I was aiming for the one with ATK/CRIT.
I do believe right now is a good moment to introduce artifacts sets. Each artifact has its own sets. There are plenty of sets to chose from. Now, the question is, does it matter from which set the item comes? Yes, it does.
Every set has all 5 types of artifacts to offer (a flower, feather, time watch piece, goblet and head piece). Depending on how many of the pieces from the same set you'll have you can get different stats. Let's take everyone's favorite Gladiator's Finale set. If you equip 2 pieces of Gladiator your get additional 18% of your base attack. IT'S A LOT!
Tumblr media
But if you equip 4 pieces of Gladiator your normal attack (the single mouse tap, not the skills or the hold tap) will be increased by 35% IF your character has a sword, polearm or claymore (so it doesn't work on characters with books and bows, sorry Amber).
As I was saying, since my Razor is my main DPS and his role is to hit, not deal Electro DMG, I gave him 4 pieces of Gladiator's Finale just so he can have these additional 35%. But his head piece belongs to Wandener's Troupe. Why? Since every character can have 5 different artifacts, and the set's bonuses are only up to 4 pieces, the last one can belong to any other set. I chose Wandener's because it have CRIT rate as a main stats, so it's perfect for main DPS character. (The last piece doesn’t have to be the head piece, it can be any of the other 4 pieces).
You can check the character stats and the difference in the artifacts by going to your character menu and then clicking on the ‘details’.
For example here are my Xiao stats calculated with all the artifacts he has right now on him:
Tumblr media
And here I have my Xiao without any artifacts and with 1* weapon:
Tumblr media
DO YOU SEE THE HUUUGE DIFFERENCE?
Next we have Qiqi, my healer. One would think that, if she's a healer, then it would be good to have a set that is designed for healers on her, right? Wrong.
Let's take a look on Qiqi elemental skill (You can check your character skills by clicking on ‘talents’ in the character menu):
(APPARENTLY TUMBLR WONT ALLOW ME TO POST MORE THAN 10 PICS IN ONE POST SO ILL HAVE TO PASTE THE INFO FROM WIKI, THANKS)
When Qiqi hits a target with her Normal or Charged Attacks, she regenerates HP for all party members and all nearby allied characters. Healing scales based on Qiqi's ATK. Regenerates HP for current character at regular intervals. Follows the character around, dealing Cryo DMG to enemies in its path.
It's says that the heals she gives is based on her overall ATK. Which means the more ATK she has the better her heals are. That's why, in my personal opinion, it's better to focus on raising her ATK and energy recharge. Ofc, there's nothing wrong in having for example 2 pieces of Maiden Beloved (set's name designed for healers, 2-Piece Bonus: Character Healing Effectiveness +15%) on her. If those pieces main stats will be ATK then this will work amazing, but unfortunately I don't have any artifacts like this.
Next are supports, Bennett and Xingqiu. Since their role is not dealing DMG, but more of a supporting you can give them sets of a 2 pieces. Let's take a look at their elemental burst:
Bennett:
if the health of a character in the circle is equal to or falls below 70%, their health will continuously regenerate. Regeneration scales based on Bennett's Max HP. If the health of a character in the circle is higher than 70%, they gain an ATK Bonus that is based on Bennett's Base ATK. Applies the Pyro element to characters within the Field.
Basically you just ult and switch to your DPS (or whoever you want honestly). If the character you switched to (or Bennett himself, his ult works on him too) HP is below 70%, they will receive heals. If their HP is above 70%, the incoming healing with cease and they will get attack bonus based on Bennet BASE ATK (only when you have him c0, so with no constellations. On c1 (his first constellation is unlocked) there is no HP restriction, so his ult buffs the attack no matter of your character current health). So it’s not the same case as Qiqis. Base attack is the base amount the character have with weapon equipped but without any artifacts on, so the only way to rise base ATK is to maximize character level and to give them weapon with high amount of attack. Then we should focus on giving him as much of an energy recharge as we can so he can load his ult faster. Then it’s up to you whether you wanna make is a healer or side DPS. In healer case you should focus on rising his HP amount by giving him artifacts with that stats and substats cause, on the contrary to Qiqi, the heals he gives are based on his own max HP, not his ATK. In side DPS case you can focus on the overall dmg he makes.
Now let's take a look on my Xiao. His role is a dps, just like Razor. So one would think that it would be the best to max physical DMG on Xiao too, right? Wrong.
Let's take a look on Xiao's elemental skill and Elemental burts:
Skill:
Xiao lunges forward, dealing Anemo DMG to opponents in his path.
Burst:
Greatly increases Xiao's jumping ability. Increases his attack AoE and attack DMG. Converts attack DMG into Anemo DMG, which cannot be overriden by any other elemental infusion. In this state, Xiao will continuously lose HP. The effects of this skill end when Xiao leaves the field.
Both of them covert the DMG into Anemo DMG. Which mean that no matter the physical DMG bonus, if he doesn't have any Anemo DMG he won't be as useful as he could be. That why my Xiao has 2 pieces of Gladiator and 2 pieces of Viridescent Venerer that gives him +15% of Anemo DMG bonus. (y’all have no idea how long it took me to write this thing correctly lmao)
Tumblr media
As the last piece i used Wandener's head piece again to give him that additional CRIT rate. (yes, his Anemo DMG can be scaled with CRIT rate, too). Ofc my Xiao still lacks a lot of power we can see on some videos on yt.
Okay Akii, I understand how does the artifacts works and what to which to chose when thinking about the character role, but how do I actually get the artifacts?
That's actually the hardest part. You can get them from domains. Each domain have two sets of artifacts at the same time, which means depending on your luck you'll get the artifacts from the set you want or the artifacts you don't want BUT can use for enhancing later on! Gladiator's and Wandener's don't have its own domain, but can be achieved by fighting bosses like cubes or regisvines and from weekly bosses like Dvalin, Andrius and Childe.
Now that you know everything you need to know about artifacts you can go and start doing the domains...
only to waste all of your resins and get tons of shit artifacts with DEF as a main stats and then start crying after your one good artifact with ATK as a main stat and CRIT as a substat gets shits like HP, DEF and more HP after enhancing. Have fun <3
