Unfinished Reverie is a specialized set aimed at enhancing damage in Burning-focused team compositions. While it can be potent in the right setup, its reliance on a specific reaction limits its general applicability. If you're interested in how this set might look in action or need help with team-building around it, I can offer to generate images or provide further gameplay tips.
Set Effects:
•2-Piece Set: Increases ATK by 18%.
•4-Piece Set: After leaving combat for 3 seconds, grants a 50% DMG bonus. In combat, if there are no Burning enemies nearby for over 6 seconds, this buff decreases by 10% per second until it reaches 0%. If there are Burning enemies nearby, the buff increases by 10% per second until it reaches 50%. This effect applies even if the equipping character is off-field.
Location:
•Domain: You can farm this set from the Faded Theater domain in the Petrichor region, which is part of the Nostoi Region south of Fontaine and north off the coast of the Sumeru Desert.
Best Characters:
Dendro and Pyro Characters:
•Emilie: A Dendro character who can make good use of the Burning reaction.
•Kinich: Expected to be a Dendro main DPS from Natlan, potentially excelling in Burning and Burgeon reaction team comps.
•Ganyu: Specifically for Burnmelt teams where Burning is used to establish a Pyro aura before triggering Melt.
However, this set is considered niche due to its reliance on the Burning reaction:
•Niche Use: While it can be beneficial for characters in teams focused around Burning, the set has limited applicability since Burning isn't as commonly utilized as other elemental reactions in Genshin Impact. Characters like Xiangling or Thoma could be used to apply Pyro off-field to maintain the Burning status on enemies.
Mechanics:
•Burning Reaction: This set's effectiveness hinges on maintaining the Burning reaction, which occurs when Pyro meets Dendro. The set buffs the damage output significantly when Burning enemies are present, but the buff diminishes without this condition.
Community Feedback:
•Viability: There's a mixed reception. Some players see potential in niche teams or specific character builds, particularly those centered around Burn or Melt reactions. Others argue that the conditions for the set's full effectiveness are too restrictive, suggesting more versatile sets like Shimenawa's Reminiscence or Wanderer's Troupe for broader utility.
•Farming: Players often discuss the frustration of farming this set alongside the Fragment of Harmonic Whimsy, another set from the same domain, noting the low drop rates and the randomness in substats.
Lore:
•Natlan Connection: The artifact set's lore ties back to Natlan, with cultural references to Mesoamerican civilizations like the Maya, Aztec, and Inca, indicated by names like Sakkuk, Yupanqui, Atawallpa, and Waskar.
Practical Considerations:
•Team Composition: Teams should include both Dendro and Pyro to trigger Burning consistently. The set's effectiveness largely depends on how well you can keep enemies in a Burning state.
•Artifact Stats: Focus on ATK% for the Sands, Elemental Mastery or appropriate Elemental DMG Bonus for the Goblet, and CRIT Rate or CRIT DMG for the Circlet to maximize damage output.
