One ofGenshin Impact’s main assets are Artifact pieces, but the energy-locked, RNG facet of acquiring that perfect piece can be both daunting and draining for players.
Players usually have to spend hundreds of Resin to aquire a decent artifact set, especially for the Goblet piece. Artifacts have always been one of the core features of a goodGenshin Impactbuild that can make all the difference, especially in the latter stages of the game considering that theSpiral Abyss has become harderwith each update.

AGenshin Impactleaker named Tangzhu has revealed more details about a new artifact set. The new set apparently suits one ofGenshin Impact’s strongest DPS characters, the Anemo user Xiao. According to the translation provided within the Reddit thread, the artifact set will apparently have the following stats:
This artifact set is made for a “selfish DPS” character considering that the four-piece bonus is applied only if the character is on the field. Selfish DPS characters are considered a small DPS subclass that is only effective when they are on the field. The two main representatives are probably Xiao and Razor since their elemental bursts which provide an overall damage buff damage are imminently stopped once they get swapped out.
Xiao has seen an increase in popularity since his second appearance in the most recent double banner re-run which arrived inGenshin Impact update 2.4. Xiao is one of the strongest DPS characters inGenshin Impactat the moment, on par with Ganyu and Hu Tao. Even though he’s paired with the new character Shenhe on the current banner cycle, many players still choose to spend their Primogems to finally acquire Xiao and build up his constellations.
Xiao’s first four constellations provide a utility boost, but his damage stays fairly the same. However, his last constellation,Conqueror Of Evil: Guardian Yaksha, is one of the strongest in the game right now allowing him to gain additional Elemental Skill charges while using his Plunging attack during the Burst duration.
Genshin Impactis available now on PC, PS4, PS5, and mobile devices. A Switch version is currently in development with no confirmed release date.
