Why You Might Be Farming the WRONG Way for Artifacts | Genshin Impact 

All of my DPS characters have really good crit ratios but only one has 2000+ ATK, and that character has a 5 star weapon. It's pain, ATK hates me.

When the artifact strongbox first came out almost all of the content creators said it was a waste of artifacts exp so I was very hesitant to try it out and now here I am with my best circlet ever (crit rate with 36% crdmg) from the strongbox I just want them to add more artifacts to the strongbox so I don't have to farm the hell that is blizzards and crimson domains

The social media analogy really hits close to home. Though, my opinion about artifacts still stands. It may not be the worst RNG out there, but it's pretty close to the bottom, and definitely needs improvements.

Just want to share a story. So I was playing my friend's acc and I got a anemo dmg vv goblet with cr. It was good until my friend raised it and got it to I think 40+ cv, at that point it was godly. Then maybe an hour later I was playing another friend's acc and got a cd circlet with cr substat. I'm still wondering why I can guide others to a treasure I cannot possess

3:10 That's a good goblet. It's on set Hydro Dmg, and it has a fairly high Crit Rate even if the other substats aren't useful. Because it is on set you can have a different artifact be your off piece which can easily make up for this artifacts very slight downside of having 3 useless substats. I have a similar Electro Dmg EoSF Goblet with 12.1% Crit Rate on Raiden

My Itto only has 2 on set husk pieces, the flower and feather. Everything else is random. His crit ratio is 70:160 which is great to me, just wish he had a full set.

I just leveled up my atk% goblet with crit rate and damage and guess what, it all rolled to HP%!

I feel like for the people whose standards are "too high" it's probably more accurate to think that they have good artifacts already but can't get anything better than what they have. For example the artifact they have is CR - 6.2 CD - 20.7 HP - 555 HP% - 4% But the artifact they want would replace the hp stats with atk% and EM with higher crit rolls.

I don't think the artifact rng is bad either however it becomes excessive when you take into consideration the resin system attached to it. I think artifacts would be a lot more manageable if the end was actually in sight when deciding to farm them, for example with weapon ascension materials I know roughly how many it will take to 1-90 a new weapon but with artifacts it is impossible to know where the end is because of the rng. This causes an issue where you don't really now how much resin it will consume from the resin you get this week or even month. Farming for artifacts is the only way this game has ever burnt me out and I do think some changes are necessary to at least have that end in sight. I don't know what this new mechanic should be but I do think there should be one.

Good video. People’s expectations are becoming ridiculous. The HoD cup with hydro and 4 rolls of CR is a very strong artifact. If you are aiming for a similar artifact with 5-6 rolls of CR and CD, you could spend tens of thousands of resin and not get that.

When it comes to the strongbox right now; I highly recommend people to just save all their 5* artifacts and farm it after Dendro drops (if it drops with Sumeru, that is). That way you can knock out 2 birds with 1 stone. Dendro%, and farming off-pieces. I'm 2/3rd the way to completely filling my bag with artifacts lol 10:33 - That is my Hu Tao. Walked into Crimson Witch domain; got her full 4 piece set 60/220 within 8 runs 🤣 Best extreme I've ever had in this entire game.

A lot of players dispose artifacts that has just one crit stat on a 4 stat starter. In my experience those artifacts are the ones that surprisingly rolls well. For instance I recently got a 4 stat starter, with just crit damage and atk % and it rolled 35+crit damage and 1 into attack % =9.9% atk. That artifact is one of my highest crit damage pieces. Now for me, because this piece has high crit damage, I try finding a another piece that has high crit rate rolls to compliment with it and bring balance in stats. It's nice to have both crit rate and damage rolls on all pieces, but it's still possible to work around the imbalances in rolls per pieces.

I never farmed noblese, I only use the strongbox. The artifacts i have are godly, i recomend using it

The great thing is that you can use fully upgraded artifacts to level up new ones. So just use mediocre artifacts, feed them to good ones when you get them and then to great ones. Rolls are a thing so this isn't at all a perfect strategy, but it helps a lot at building new characters

the goblet you showed is really good, but for me, everything that goes above 7% crit rate is, since i just happen to be unlucky with crit rate, while i do get high crit damage rolls. my standards are just: is the artifact i got better or worse than what i already have on my account, if its worse i probably wont use it, if its about the same then i'll keep it. because it got me SO long to get an electro goblet, i do not care if it all goes to def, atleast i can replace the four star one with hp rolls. i tend to give a lot of artifacts a chance, i needed a feather on the vv set, i got one with def, hp, and atk, all flat stats, i got it to four and got crit damage. it rolled 23%, and that isn't the best (i have pieces with 34%, but thats only rare and not even necessary) but it's better than a four star with flat def rolls. regarding the strongbox: i got my two best artifacts from there, and it is so cool.

I agree the strongbox is useful, however I will stop using it. I have no artefact exp and i have many artefacts with potential that cannot be upgraded. I need to save every artifact to fodder into exp. I guess it's also because when I do get good artifacts, they don't roll well enough where it is an upgrade for some of my pieces. Every case is unique, i know someone who's the same ar as me but has 500 artifacts to fodder at any time

Problem with that retoric is : when you already have « ok artifacts » on a character, you need « amazing artifacts » to perfect your characters. When you’re in that step, you need those overall 230 Crit Value on your character.

Great vid and excellent point. Players really do need to temper their expectations. Comparing yourself to others makes you vain and bitter and keeps you from appreciating the things you have for what they are. And I’ve always believed that Genshin Impact, with its lack of pvp and leaderboards and any form of in-game competitive gameplay, embodies that very virtue.

Honestly sometimes the ok kind of artifacts always turns out the better.

One of my early mistakes in artifact farming was trying to crit hoard , i didn't realise the value of those other stats , now that I have realised my life has become infinitely more easier

I totally get your point, but the thing is, you into can have so many artifacts to fodder into others, so that you do have to be critical with which ones you want to give a chance.

I always aim for usable artifacts before good ones. As long as the main stat is good and there's at least one or two good substats, it's better than nothing. However, it is indeed very frustrating to see those pieces not be as good as more optimal pieces could be.

i might be cursed by hp but as a hu tao main.. i see that as an absolute dub

this is why we call it the crimson witch of PAIN

I generally have lower standards for sand/goblet, i find those to be the hardest to farm good piece. Circlets by their very nature are pretty good, so my standards are higher for them. Strongbox, I thought it was a scam at first, still kinda do. On the other hand theres nothing to do with all the artifacts laying around in your inventory.

I think the main issue with artifacts rn is that its so resin consuming, especially since u have to use it for bosses and talents also. it spreads your supply so thin that the RNG of it feels unfair

earlier, i received a good glad feather from the strongbox after 1 month of feeding trash to it. i tested my luck to see the bonus substat since it only has crit rate on it, and crit damage was added. then i fed a trash level 20 and it all went to hp:)))

yeah i think ur kind of right tho xD but i wanna tell you this anyway : so i have an average resin contingent of 200 resin a day (sometimes i do top up one if i have the primos or a fragile or transcient resin) and since 12 weeks i am farming the Viridescent Domain every day. That means i spent 12 weeks x 7 days x ~ 200 resin = 16.800 resin on the viridescent domain since then. and i happened to monitor my artifact drops todo some statistics on my average luck since i have nothing else to do anyway xDD. I got 1139 gold artifacts in total. Sadly my luck was so bad that i got 2 EM viridescent pieces (wich is 0.17% of all drops) and 5 EM pieces in total (wich is 0.43% of all drops). Additionally i got 783 DEF mainstat pieces in total (wich is equal to 68,74% of all drops) and the last 30,83% are shared of feathers, plumes and other mainstat pieces such as HP%, ATK%, elemental/physicalDMG%, CRITDMG/RATE. According to the wiki the drop chance for EM pieces is 2.5% which means i should have 28 EM pieces in total and the chance between maidens set and viridescent set is 50/50, which means i should have got 14 virdescent em pieces. where are my artifacts xDDD And since this is the viridescent set and i wanna stack as much EM on my Venti / Kazuha i dont really care about the substats lmao. yeah what d'you think when i will get those huh xD

6 weeks + 15 fragile resin at blizzard strayer domain and only 2 useable pieces for Ayaka (1 is only 17cv gross) yet 500 good HoD pieces... but i dont have anyone to use them on, the game does this on purpose i swear. Same with the clam domain, ive gotten so many crit pieces from there which are USLESS for my kokomi.

I remember farming for diluc and didn't get a single atk sands or pyro goblet or crit circlet after a whole month of farming. I would've settled for just the main stat being right. It was so painful. And then after getting Eula I farmed for 2 days and had a full perfect set for her.

My best atk sands has 33% crit dmg... Along with 3 meh substats. I was so desperate for a noblesse atk sands that I took a gamble on it. The emotional pay off of rolling everything on that single was *mwah* chef's kiss.

That Hydro Goblet is decent imo, I'd use it for Childe 'cause of it being on-set and Congrats on the Physical Goblet looking really good (hehe) Thank you for the Video, it's exactly what I tell my friend The standard of "what is good enough" is just different for people and sometimes decent gets the job done as well instead of grinding mindlessly

3:10 That is a very nice artifact for the average player due to 24.8 crit value and having Hydro DMG on a Hydro set cup As for my own standards, I think that if you can have artifacts for a character (without crit weapons or ascension stats) to be like 60/105 then I'd considering it pretty good in my opinion

I’m kind of a masochist when it comes to farming artifacts. Here’s my routine: 1 - I look at what my character needs based on his scaling, weapon given and role 2 - I choose what set I want for them 3 - On a piece of paper I write “Flower of Life”, “Plume of Death” etc. 4 - For every piece of the set I choose the Main Stat 5 - then, on another page, I write the Sub Stat I need/want until I reach 20 (4 Sub Stat for 5 pieces). Max 5 times each Sub Stat, you can’t get the same one on the same piece 6 - I distribute them equally on the pieces 7 - I start farming the set until I get a PERFECT artefact. If my piece had to be: Sands of Eon Elemental Mastery ATK ATK% CRIT Rate CRIT DMG I don’t stop until u get that EXACT piece. If it’s missing a stat I level it up to level 4 and check. If it is the stat I wanted I continue, otherwise I’ll continue farming 8 - once I found the perfect piece I level it up to level 20 but what I hope for is kind unusual: I hope it rolls once for every Sub Stat. I don’t believe in the supremacy of the CRIT. If Itto scales DEF he’ll need as much CRIT value as DEF so one roll on each is the best for a balanced character. 9 - repeat step 7-8 until satisfied 🥲

I had pretty low expectations at the beginning. But then all my artifacts started rolling all DEF, no matter how good substats were to begin with. Now i won't even consider leveling up until i get crit rate and crit dmg substats, which is extremely rare to get (and it's still rolls all DEF lmao). It would be so nice to have some kind of pity on artifacts, that RNG just kills me.

your channel is highly underrated man love your commentary and humor, and yes the social media analogy in genshin impact is really well explained and it doesn't just apply to artifacts but the pulls and other aspect of RNG too.

I actually didn't mind artifact farming for a long time...until the Lost Valley came out. The Lost Valley is the bane of my existence because I only have one character who could use either of the artifact sets (Xiao). It was a nightmare to farm decent artifacts for him and it felt like such a waste of resin because, for many other domains, the artifacts farmed could be used on SOMEBODY. I'm hoping in the future that genshin will release more characters that will benefit from the Lost Valley to make the domain much more worthwhile

The Artifact system in this game is too frustrating for me so i decided i'd skip it entirely and rely on Gladiator/Wanderer alone, maybe sprinkle in some 2pc Berserker, and i noticed again and again just how low my standards are, for obvious reasons, but i'm happy with this decision. Oh and the Strongbox was godsent for me

People just value crit too much when atk% and er is just as important for most characters.

I really needed this video. I was really scared to roll for artifacts, but thanks for the advice! You've geniunely been the most reliable genshin channel on the internet, and i thank you for that on our community's behalf. Entertaining and informative? You're an absolute gem!

I'd label that hydro goblet you asked about as perfectly serviceable. If all other artifacts for a character were of that quality I'd just move on to farm other things. I prefer raising talent levels and new characters over perfecting artifacts. It's just more fun. Though I do have a bit higher standards for one of my favoured characters compared to some random character I levelled just because I thought it might be fun.

Weird enough I managed to fully build my Ganyu with Full Wanderer's set by feeding trash artifacts to the strong box. Also most of my good off set artifacts came from it.

My big problem with artifacts is when I start out with a decent one and the game gives me flat HP twice, flat attack twice, and flat defense once even though I had a good elemental goblet with crite rate substat. It just takes so much damn farming and mora to even begin to sort through the artifacts.

Watching a few of these types of videos, I realized that “op” artifacts are the one that have crit rate and crit DMG in substats (and after spending 37 fragile resin, I have got some good artifacts enough to leave raiden and Barbara satisfied, and leave kaeya, Bennett, tighnari and gaming slightly satisfied), and I asked other AR 50+ players for their advice, but they say that my artifacts are a beyond average than the artifacts of other people at my AR

Watch me make fun of the history of banner opinions: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PyHj9l3U0i0.html

I totally agree on strongbox. At first content creators are all saying strong box is a trap etc. But what I saw in strongbox is opportunity, opportunity. On the first day of strong box, I used all my trash artifacts (500-700 pcs) and suddenly my Ganyu is bonkers! 55/210 crit and a 200 EM!! All the rolls goes to EM and crits only except for the circlet since thats the hardest.

You made a good point on that Strongbox giving me a reason to try using it cause it's not as much of a loss as I thought it was

Fantastic video. Thanks for the perspective.

Currently the best piece I have on my account is a geo goblet with around 17% crit dmg and 11% crit rate.....or so I thought but just realized recently that is said 17% crit RATE and 11% crit dmg

The Crimson Witch domain is the bane to my existence. I never really care about substats but sometimes when I see any of the flat stats (atk, def or hp) I usually disregard them and I’m aware no one should do that

The track, we went from nostalgic, to fun, to memorable, to everything. Love it dude.

Bro your thumbnail hooked me well played I'll subscribe now hopefully the channel grows to the moon

3:27 This artifact is kinda scuffed but it depends on the character that uses it On childe it's cope, because 3 dead stats On koko it's just bad, if flat hp was hp% it would be ok also 3 dead stats On ayato it's ok, this the type of artifact you switch out once you get a better one. It mainly depends on what the character needs, and how many sub stats that character can utilize.

"Too much grind" is not my main complaint. No, it's that there's no progress floor - i.e. no limit on how much effort you can invest and get _no_ return, even if you are evaluating new artefacts rationally. For a progression mechanic that is also time gated, this is both not even necessary and potentially far too punishing. If you could e.g. burn a large number of high rarity artefacts to predictably shift an attribute of an existing one to something more favourable, that would provide at least an assurance that your efforts aren't going to be entirely wasted. Any competent game designer should be able to build that system such that it doesn't break the intended progress rate compared to average luck not using it.

Chongyun was the first 4-star character I got from Genshin wishes, and I INSTANTLY fell in love with him. I've been lucky enough to C6 him, as well. I know that he's rated relatively low amongst meta-Travelers, but I personally love that he can increase my Itto's attack speed and has good synergies with other claymore users (my favorite weapon type). I recently decided to stop hoarding my resources (cough cough 17 crowns collecting dust in my inventory cough cough) and REALLY build him, and see how I can use other units like Rosaria and Shenhe to maximize his potential; this has been SO much fun. The Peak of Vindagnyr is a menace, an abomination, a tragedy, a barren hellscape, a ruthless tyrant, a cruel mistress, and a brutal trial all in one. It is the place where dreams are forever corrupted, where aging becomes rapid, where families are torn apart, and where patience yields to rage. It is a domain completely absent of good people; it's inhabitants drink the blood of their victims from the useless goblets that sustain players' presences in its shadowy depths. The Peak of Vindagnyr is where Dad went so many years ago. Now, I've reunited with him...and now, neither of us can go back to Mom. 10/10 experience will farm this domain until the next cataclysm.

I thought the thumbnail was clickbait, but that was a pretty clever way to make a point.

3:06 IMO the goblet is average at best 24.8 CRIT value isn't bad (most of my artifacts have that much) the big issue comes with 3 flat stats this is something i likely wouldn't give a chance unless i completely overlooked the flats when leveling it on impulse for reference i trash an artifact if it has 2 flats and only 1 CRIT stat rolled

Love the video. The only thing I want to touch on is in reference to the grind. I agree that genshin’s grind amount is not bad. The amount of grind you need to do is actually super small in the grand scheme of things. What I find bad about it is the subtype of grind it is. It’s restrictive grind. So you may not spend too much total time grinding the game, but it demands that the time you do spend grinding it be consistent. Which, yes, is what most game developers strive for as it makes their numbers look good especially for a game like Genshin that doesn’t have any real replayable content. However, this is where the majority of players’ frustrations come from. Most games people play allow you to grind on your own time. Don’t have the time to play the game for a week? That’s fine, you can sit down on a day you’re free and grind for 8 hours to try and accomplish what you set out to do that day. In Genshin, you don’t have that feeling of accomplishment when you’re grinding artifacts specifically. Because the grind is time gated, if you miss a day, it truly feels bad because you cannot make up for that grind when you are capable of doing so. If compressing resin wasn’t limited or at the very least, had a much higher cap than 5, this might alleviate the frustration a lot. But as is, the time gates rng rolls on top of the layered rng doesn’t feel as though you’re accomplishing the task of progressing your account because you can go so many sessions with failed grinds. And these grinds are failures not because of your own capabilities or perseverance. So while you may succeed in bettering your account eventually, even when you succeed, it comes off the back of many sessions that can be counted as failures for most or even wasted effort for some.

The strongbox really needs more love! I've gotten the majority of my 4pc sets from it. Like 3 full Noblesse sets, Wanderer's for Ganyu, good glad pieces and recently Crimson, TF and Thundersoother. I've actually never set foot in the crimson domain, and from what I hear that's a blessing. As far as the worst domain for me it's also undoubtedly Peak of Vindagnyr. I was trying to gear up my beloved Kamisato siblings for ages but that domain only contains feathers and flowers!! Luckily the strongbox was able to finish out the sets for me pretty well. Oh, and good job... now I really want to boot up the old PS2 and replay FFX. That nostalgic music...

I really love your videos man, feel really fresh and entertaining, keep it up!

10:00 well, RNG is not so random... it can be controlled the rate of prock for individual stats and sub-stats, have you noticed that after farming a lot in a domain the amount of circlets with ATK, HP and DEF are always higher than CRIT? also if you farm in the Slumbering Court Domain, you imagine that will be a piece of cake to have the DEF and HP pieces you need, but the game trolls you by giving a lot of pieces of DEF in the kokomi's set and HP in the Itto's set, that's because each individual substat have a drop rate that can be controlled by developers, so the chances are never equal, the goal is to keep you locked farming dungeons because if you have easily all you want from that domain you will loose interest in the game, at least that's what the developers think

Bad artifact moment

When your artifact almost matches with the thumbnail one (I got crit rate kabuto (the hat), crit DMG, and some other sub stats)

I do agree to an extent. Basically the artifact grind struggle for me is trying to get an UPGRADE. I have usable pieces all around and it gets so much more difficult when you're trying to balance 4 stats on a character (Crit, ATK, ER), ESPECIALLY on Emblem artifact set users. Getting optimal energy recharge, good crit AND elemental damage and the atk/hp substats etc is HARD. artifact grinding from scratch feels so much better because eventually you throw on a 4pc set of usable artifacts and hope for an upgrade. My raiden shogun GENUINELY has double crit on *every single piece* but I still have a sub-50% crit rate. I think bare minimum QoL improvements to artifact system would be the ability to reset an artifact to level 0 while maintaining substats, or completely rerolling substats and preserving the main stat.

Just discovered your channel and I’m actually happy that I did!

Good perspective. Earned a sub man.

Awesome tips ratheil! I hope u add these tips in a follow up vid. I've helped friends with their accts and so many people don't know the treasure they're sleeping on 1) Getting a 3 sub-stat artifact with Crit rate, crap, and more crap, and unlocking Crit DMG as the 4th stat is the same as having a 3 sub-stat artifact with both Crit rate and Crit DMG. With this logic, Ive rolled tons of artifacts that looked like the hydro goblet in the vid, and ended up with a godly 30-35 Crit value. 2) If it's a Crit circlet, keep in mind that you CAN'T get the same main stat as your sub-stat. So if it's a Crit rate circlet with 3 substats, just try rolling to +4 and see if it gets Crit DMG. You never know, it has the potential for 31.2 Crit DMG in substats. 3) you also don't lose any artifact XP by throwing a +4 into a new artifact (or maybe you do, but it's a negligible amount). I've used the same +4 fodder about 20+ times before, without it ever going down to +3. Just about everything is worth trying to +4 at least

3:20 I saw that cup and verbaly said "Mona?" oop

I have levelled so many artifacts that i unintentionally have all my character equip with fully lv 20 artifacts . Maybe my standard is too low or i have been played for too long lol .

Love your vids man keep it up 👍

The quickest way, in my experience, to understand what artifacts can be good is to use an optimizer. Many pieces I used to think were meh end up being on my optimal builds. And after equipping like 5 characters for DPS, I can often have 30 and 40 CV pieces left out (usually bc those pieces have no ER)

Artifact Strongbox was a savior for me who frequently use that Burst buff set. You tell me. Spend Resin and get useless Physical artifact, or spend artifacts you already wasted Resin on to get that artifact you wanted.

" I think we all have that 1 domain that screws us so many times" me who screwed by every domain i have been farming : some people are just lucky

This right here is one of my favorite Genshin videos, and I think you need to promote this every few months in order to make sure people see it and understand its OKAY to only have 2 stats that are good on a piece,. This video was the Push I needed to finally give Emblem Domain Grinding a try, and I've been having a Blast wiith my Weird Rosaria National Team. So really, thank you so much for making this, and you earned yourself a like on every video and a sub.

I hate the Crimson Witch domain more than any other. I've had terrible luck there and although I don't find it difficult to complete, it is dreadfully slow. I got Klee right when she first released so she was one of the first characters I built but now her artifacts are outdated and I'm struggling to find the motivation to go back in there and get replacements.

I learned to not chase the perfect crit ratio. The only thing I avoid are the flat stats (and even that only when I can). Not to mention, I lovered my expectations for any elemental cup. I do look around for the best one, of course, but even a mediocre or a copium one is good for a time. Farming artifacts takes time. You need to develop patience (or a thick wallet, but patience is preferred). Also, strongbox is great! Recently I decided to build a wanderers Yanfei and it's super helpful since otherwise this set is hard to farm properly.

Good perspective, thanks

This video got me to log in and try the box thing again. I've now come to realize I have no idea where to go to use the thing.....

it's crazy how you don't have more subscribers especially when considering how many views you get per video. these are amazing quality videos man keep it up!!

Yeah... This video did help. Basically a shining light into the darkness that is the despair of strangers (and the grind that is artifact domains that always drop the wrong set).

I literally farm the emblem set for Raiden since this domain is out. Over 2 years of constant suffering and I still don't have really good artifacts. I really have no explanation of this why this domain screws me over for years. Maybe it is because I am using Raiden and the game automatically thinks the artifacts have to be bad because I have a character that needs it. That is my only explanation.

After watching this video, I realized that I have been setting the bar too high for my artifact standard. Now looking back at my account, I'm having lots of decent artifact pieces and sets, ty!

People comparing others best artifacts to your bad ones. What a lesson to be learned.

The Thundering fury domain that domain has fd me up so hard,

The biggest problem with artifacts is inventory space. HYV expanded it to 1500, but I still have like 1450 5* artifacts, and I’m too hesitant to sort it. And I’ve already sorted them once!

I couldn't agree more. This is so true. I am really tired of viewing comments from most videos cause most of the time I come across a complaint on the artifact RNG system. lmao.

living for the ffx music in the background

Thank you for this advice. I have waaaaaay too high of standards apparently and took your advice and rolled a deep wood memories goblet and it got crit damage and increased its crit rate. All I had to do was take a small step and it paid off!! (I will say, it’s on YaoYao LMAO but cuz Nahida’s current artifacts have such incredible EM and CD%)

Watching this made me remember the time when pyro goblets were as rare as billets and always getting cursed with bad sets with good main and substats and great sets with bad main and substats.

Damn, this is the first time I saw someone talking about the pov of players when it comes to artifact's standards. This is actually a really great video to share with the Genshin community. Although some might be in denial about the truth of artifact standards, it all comes to the opinion of themselves. Overall, a great video with great details. Keep up the effort! 🎉

The thumbnail scared me because that artifact is almost identical to what i have on my raiden

I started to do the exact same thing as you with my husk of opulent dreams, like when I see a crit rate/damage I level it up just a bit to see if it rolls nicely xD

This was a really eye opening video. Personally my account has had really amazing luck with artifacts but because of that now, when I farm for new stuff I thinks all shit unless it is on par with the same stuff that got me 200 crit damage xiao(back when he first came out this was a really hard margine for low spenders especially someone who started playing only a week before his banner ended). It didn’t help that I was definitely the person who ran a domain 4 times and came out with the perfect set. But this video definitely opened my eyes to the possibility that the stuff I used to consider as trash is actually really good or at least more usable than I think.

i also feel that when it comes to crit substats, i seem to prefer multiple crit dmg roles as opposed to crit rate? perhaps it's due to the higher-looking numbers, despite offering the same value, or maybe it's my abundance of crit rate circlets

viridescent domain hates me, but at least it's super quick to farm, especially if you have venti. a punch in the gut when you get maiden's for over a week, but it is what it is

"their average artifacts" *SHOWS UP A PRETTY GOOD ARTIFACT*

I used to think strongbox was not worth the exp trade for better roll chances, tried it a few times and now most of my 30-40 CV rolls come from it.

3:20 it actually depends on the context, if it is for a DPS Critkomi, its beautiful, if it is for a Yelan, its perfect, don't even touch it, if it is for Tartaglia, baby its good but i know you can get a better artifact but it should do as a place holder

What I learned is you can go god rolla on flower and feather, reasonable on circlet, and realistic on sands and time piece on the last two you just need main stat and a single good substat

The strongbox has a higher probability of getting 4 substats, and it ends up giving you about 50% more chance for a good artifact roll. It also lets you now roll for sets like VV without dealing with subpar second sets like Maiden Beloved.
