Equipment options · Main stats · Team examples

Your build plan

For Hu Tao, compare Artifact Set while keeping the recommended Elemental Mastery or HP% · Pyro DMG Bonus · CRIT Rate or CRIT DMG setup fixed. A weapon or set change is easier to judge when you do not also change the team and skill timing.

Equipment options

12 options

Start with equipment you can actually obtain. These are alternative recommendations, not pieces to equip together. Refinement, set size and team restrictions change the result.

Test your setup

Balance critical rate with critical damage. A large damage number is less useful when critical hits are inconsistent; evaluate the complete setup rather than a single item.

Keep the recommended defensive stat when the character scales with it. An offensive-looking replacement can reduce both survivability and the contribution expected from this setup.

Choose one option, run the same encounter twice, and change one variable. Record whether the next rotation starts on time and whether the team survives without losing its damage window.
