Gladiator's Finale is another pivotal artifact set in Genshin Impact, particularly for characters who deal normal or charged attack damage. Here’s a detailed look at this set:
Artifact Set Bonuses:
•2-Piece Set: Increases Attack (ATK) by 18%.
•4-Piece Set: If the wielder of this artifact set uses a Sword, Claymore, or Polearm, their Normal Attack damage is increased by 35%.
How to Obtain:
•Domain: This set can be farmed in the Midsummer Courtyard domain, located in the Mondstadt region, specifically in the area of Windwail Highland. The domain includes a Ley Line Disorder that increases incoming damage, making it somewhat challenging.
•Artifact Strongbox: Like other artifact sets, crafting an Artifact Strongbox at any crafting bench is an option. You'll need to sacrifice three 5-star artifacts to get one random piece from the Gladiator's Finale set.
•Weekly Bosses: Pieces of this set can also drop from weekly bosses like Childe, Azhdaha, and the Spiral Abyss reward shop.
Best Characters for the Set:
Melee DPS with Normal/Charged Attack Focus: Characters who primarily deal damage through their normal or charged attacks benefit greatly:
•Diluc, Razor, and Eula are prime examples for Claymore users.
•Keqing can use this if she's built for normal attack damage with her Sword.
•Xiao for his plunging attacks, although his best in slot often includes other sets, this can be viable for certain builds.
•Characters like Bennett or Beidou might use this for their normal attack damage in specific scenarios or team comps.
Notes:
1.The 4-piece set bonus is quite specific, focusing only on Sword, Claymore, or Polearm users, which means it's not universally applicable across all characters but very potent for those it does suit.
2.Since the set boosts normal attack damage, characters with high base attack or those who scale well with ATK benefit the most. Combining this with weapons that also boost ATK can lead to significant damage increases.
3.It's often mixed with other sets like Bloodstained Chivalry for characters like Razor or Eula to get the best of both worlds, providing an ATK boost and a physical damage increase.
4.For characters who don't benefit from the 4-piece bonus (like those using Bows or Catalysts), the 2-piece bonus is still beneficial as a general ATK boost when combined with another set.
5.This set does not provide any Elemental Mastery or Elemental damage bonuses, so its utility is more focused on raw attack power rather than elemental reactions.
