Long Night’s Oath: Unleash Plunging Attack Power
The Long Night’s Oath is one of the standout artifact sets arriving in version 5.5, featuring impressive set bonuses:
- 2-Piece Bonus: Increases Plunging Attack DMG by 25%.
- 4-Piece Bonus: After executing a Plunging Attack, Charged Attack, or Elemental Skill on an enemy, the equipping character receives 1/2/2 stack(s) of “Radiance Everlasting.” This effect can be triggered every second and enhances Plunging Attack damage by 15% for 6 seconds. Up to 5 stacks can accumulate, with each stack’s duration counting separately.
This artifact set is tailor-made for maximizing Plunging Attack damage, making it a top-tier choice for characters like Xiao, Hu Tao, Venti, and even Diluc when synergized with Xianyun. The dual bonuses amplify Plunging Attack damage significantly, making this set a must-have for dedicated players.
Finale of the Deep Galleries: A Cryo Character’s Best Friend
The Finale of the Deep Galleries is the second new artifact set introduced in Genshin Impact 5.5. Here’s a breakdown of its set bonuses:
- 2-Piece Bonus: Grants a 15% increase to Cryo DMG.
- 4-Piece Bonus: When the equipping character is at 0 Elemental Energy, Normal Attack DMG and Elemental Burst DMG both increase by 60%. Once the user deals Normal Attack DMG, the Elemental Burst effect will pause for 6 seconds, and vice versa. This ability can activate even if the character is off the battlefield.
The 2-piece bonus is ideal for enhancing Cryo characters. However, the specific conditions required to trigger the 4-piece effect may limit usage among current characters, suggesting it is likely designed for an upcoming Cryo character.
