Artifact Farming Efficiency Guide

The Golden Rule: 80/20

80% of your character's damage comes from:

• Correct main stats
• Artifacts leveled to +16/+20
• Right set bonus

Don't chase perfect substats - it's a trap!

When to Stop Farming

Acceptable Artifact Criteria (5★)

1. Correct Main Stat - Non-negotiable
2. 2+ Useful Substats - CR/CD/ATK%/ER%
3. No Triple Dead Rolls - If 3+ rolls into DEF/HP flat, replace

"Good Enough" Standards

Piece	CV Threshold	Notes
Flower	20+	Easiest to farm
Feather	20+	Second easiest
Sands	15+	Right main > substats
Goblet	10+	Elemental DMG is rare
Circlet	Any CV	Right main stat priority

CV (Crit Value) = Crit Rate × 2 + Crit DMG

Resin Investment Priority

Early Game (AR 45-50)

1. Focus: Main DPS 4pc set
2. Supports: 2pc combinations OK
3. Skip: Don't farm before AR 45!

Mid Game (AR 50-55)

1. Complete main team sets
2. Start working on second Abyss team
3. Balance talent/weapon farming

Late Game (AR 55+)

1. Min-max main DPS
2. Strongbox aggressively
3. Build variety for Abyss flexibility

Strongbox Strategy

Best Sets to Craft

1. Emblem of Severed Fate - Universal, fits most supports
2. Noblesse Oblige - Every team needs one holder
3. Viridescent Venerer - Anemo support staple

Fodder Efficiently

• Feed +0 artifacts to Strongbox
• Use 1★/2★/3★ artifacts as EXP
• Don't over-level garbage pieces

Domain Efficiency Tips

1. Use Condensed Resin - Saves time, same rewards
2. Co-op when weak - Others can carry
3. Check both domain sets - Both might be useful
4. Daily artifact routes - Free 100+ artifact EXP

The Math: Diminishing Returns

Going from 0 to 20 CV = ~15% DPS increase Going from 20 to 30 CV = ~7% DPS increase Going from 30 to 40 CV = ~5% DPS increase

Invest resin in other characters instead of perfecting one!
