Flower, Plume, Sands, Goblet and Circlet. Only Sands, Goblet and Circlet have broad main-stat choices.
Most sets activate at 2 and 4 pieces. The fifth slot is normally your best off-set piece.
A correct main stat usually matters more than forcing a set with unusable stats.
An artifact cannot roll its own main stat as a substat and cannot have duplicate substats.
A 5-star artifact gains or improves a substat every four levels, up to level 20.
Level 90 domains guarantee a 5-star artifact, making AR45 the efficient starting point for serious farming.
Use the individual character pages for the final choice. This table shows what each slot can roll.
| Slot | Main-stat options | Fast rule |
|---|---|---|
| Flower | Flat HP only | Judge it mainly by substats. |
| Plume | Flat ATK only | Judge it mainly by substats. |
| Sands | HP% · ATK% · DEF% · Energy Recharge · Elemental Mastery | Use ER when the rotation cannot Burst reliably. |
| Goblet | HP% · ATK% · DEF% · Elemental Mastery · Physical/Elemental DMG Bonus | Elemental DMG is common for damage dealers; scaling stats can win on some kits. |
| Circlet | HP% · ATK% · DEF% · Elemental Mastery · CRIT Rate · CRIT DMG · Healing Bonus | Balance CRIT, activate Favonius reliably, or maximize healing/support scaling. |
