Artifact set bonuses
Genshin Impact‘s Artifacts all belong to a particular set. Each one provides players with unique set bonuses.
At the start of Genshin Impact‘s campaign, you’ll likely have access to only a few of these coming from quest rewards or monster drops. This is why I mentioned in our beginner’s guide how the Adventurer and Lucky Dog sets remain beneficial during the early-game experience.
Later, though, you’ll obtain more Artifacts from higher-tiered sets and rarities. Many of these will come from the following activities, so try to check the possible rewards on your map too:
- Farming elite monsters and clearing domains
- Defeating Stormterror
- Defeating Andrius/The Wolf of the North Challenge
- Spiral Abyss dungeon
Note: The rarity of your drops in Genshin Impact is tied to the World Level. This is further increased as you ascend your Adventure Rank.
