Players will also have the opportunity to improve their inventory by collecting a series of new Artifacts, available as rewards that you can obtain by defeating powerful enemies in the Nation of Eternity.
With that said, let's take a look at the two new Artifact Sets you'll find in Update 2.3.
Clam in the colors of the ocean
The first of two sets will be the Ocean-Hued Clam, a series of artifacts primarily focused on powering up the divine priestess of Watatsumi Island, Sangonomiya Kokomi.
These artifacts are based on the environment you can find on this island, with shell accents adorned with majestic pearls.
There are a total of five items added as part of this set:
- Sea Tinted Flower (Flower)
- Deep Palace Feather (Feather)
- Cowries of separation (sand)
- Pearl cage (goblet)
- Couronne de Watatsumi (Circlet)
Looking at the effects of the set with two pieces, it will increase everything 15% healing, while with four, all healing effects will generate one Healing Bubble (HB), up to once every 3,5 seconds.
These HB will accumulate stacked healing (SH) as characters are healed and burst after three seconds, heal all nearby characters (50% SH) and damage nearby enemies (90% SH).
Obviously, these effects will benefit not only Kokomi but also Barbara, Qiqi and Jean.
Ocean-Hued Clam scenery pieces will be found in a new area that will be revealed on Seirai Island.
Carcass of Opulent Dreams
The second new set will be called Husk of Opulent Dreams, and this will be key to maximizing the damage and defensive stats of Arataki Itto and Gorou.
These artifacts will have a more traditional look with gold and black tones, adorned with decorative stones.
There are a total of five items added as part of this set as well:
- Bloom Time (Flower)
- Deluxe Feather (Feather)
- Song of Life (Sand)
- Awakening gourd
- Skeleton Hat (Circlet)
As for the effects of artifacts, with two pieces, it increase DEF by 30%, while with four, the character's Geo damage on the ground will grant +6% DEF and +6% Geo Damage, up to one stack every 0,3 seconds, for a maximum of four stacks.
Off the court, a stack is won every three seconds. When new stacks are not gained, the buff loses a stack every six seconds.
Thanks to its geographical affinity, characters like Albedo and Noelle will be some of the best to use this set if you fail to pull any of the new gacha characters in this update.
As with the Ocean-Hued Clam set, the Husk of Opulent Dreams parts will be found in a new area on the island of Seirai.
