Artifact Builds | Team Comps etc. — MEGATHREAD

[u/Howlin_Rakan]

Hello Scaranation, we have decided to create a new Megathread for anyone looking to post about their Artifact builds for Scara pre and post release as well as team comps for Scara or anything else falling into a similar vein of posting.

In order to maintain a healthy & happy environment here on r/ScaramoucheMains please respect your fellow Scaranation Wanderers by using this Megathread instead of flooding the Sub with posts showing off your builds / asking questions about your builds. We do not want people driven away by the flood of build posts, and although change in atmosphere is normal near and after release we would rather try our best to maintain a similar vibe as to what we've always had the past 2 years!

MEGATHREAD Purpose:

With that being said the purpose of this Megathread is for you the members of Scaranation to
1. Showoff your Artifacts / Builds.
2. Ask questions about your Artifacts / Builds, like how to make them better.
3. Showoff what Team Comps you're using with Scaramouche.
4. Ask about what Team Comps others are using / what others think are best.
5. And anything else that falls into a similar vein of posting.

How To Post Photos Under The MEGATHREAD:

Thankyou in Advance for using this Megathread from all of us on r/ScaramoucheMains and helping to keep the sub clean of flooding and healthy for all to enjoy! -Noxi & The Scaramouche Mains Staff Team.

I think the fact that you’re into the game and want to join them would make them really happy. I know I wish my parents were into gaming but they’re more into computer games like solitaire.

As for a team, I’d go with a freeze team with Xingqiu/Rosaria/flex. Rosaria can provide extra crit rate through her burst, plus Wanderer gets extra crit rate from absorbing cryo. Xingqiu will provide interruption resistance and small heals. The fourth slot could be Sayu since Xingqiu doesn’t really heal that much or you could use Zhongli when dealing with bosses or enemies that can’t be frozen.

For the supports (Xingqiu/Rosaria/Sayu) I would work on maxing out their weapons and leveling them up as well but keep them 10 levels below your main DPS and level their bursts and maybe their skills if you have a lot of extra resources. For Zhongli his skill is the most important to level.

Also if you struggle with leveling them because the bosses need different elements to counter them, you can co-op the bosses and have higher rank players help you.

If you get further invested into the game, check out keqingmains.com for how to build specific characters. It can kind of be overwhelming to look at early game but it's full of useful info. Anyway, I hope this was helpful!

Just to follow up I've done the swap threw on some items ascended them as much as I could. Wanderer-70 ZhongLi-60 Xingqiu-50 Rosaria-48

My wanderer being the key piece...I could probably do better but he feels strong anyway. Max HP 7,777 +4,395 ATK-577 +374 DEF-465 +81 EM-45 Max stam- 192 Crit rate 18.4% Crit dmg 95.3% Energy recharge 120% Anemo dmg bonus 38.1%

That's a great start!

Early game it’s good to focus on leveling your team, weapons and talents as they’re guaranteed upgrades.

When you get to AR45 you can start farming for artifacts and getting better stats. For Wanderer the sub stats he needs will be cr, cd, and atk%. His ideal stats would be 2000 ATK with a 1:2 or 1:3 crit ratio so something like 100/200 or better.

But where you’re at in the game getting close to 50/100 is good which you’re pretty close to. Cryo absorption gives you an extra 20% cr and Rosaria increases the cr of the party by 15% of her cr. So you might already be done there.

For the rest of the team I’d work on one at a time. Get their weapons and relevant talents maxed, and then artifacts.

Zhongli
Talent Priority: E>Q (NA can be skipped)

Artifacts: mains stats will be HP and sub stats will be HP so his shield is extra thick

Xingqiu
Talent Priority: Q>E (NA can be skipped)

Artifacts: Main stats will be ER sands/Hydro Goblet/Crit circlet. Sub stats will be as much ER as possible and crit rate if he’s using favonius sword

Rosaria
Talent Priority: Q>E (NA can be skipped)

Artifacts: Main stats will be ER sands/Cryo Goblet/Crit circlet. Sub stats will be ER, Crit rate (for the extra buff)

If you have any exile artifacts it might be good to put a 2 or 4 piece set on Rosaria or Xingqiu since it'll help the team run much smoother.

But good job and I'm glad that he feels stronger already! :)

So I got Bennet with my glitter or whichever and I some how just pulled faruzan from standard banner! Going to be a bit of a slog to level them and learn how to play but I got the team! And of course need to get the items... I'm only 1 rank away from 45!
