Enhancing Artifacts in Genshin Impact

Enhancing Artifacts adds stats or increases the existing stats of the selected artifact, giving them up to four sub stats. With a good set of stats, players may then choose to level up this artifact. Artifacts can be leveled up to 12, but is lower depending on the rarity of the artifact. Focus on enhancing artifacts with a desirable main stat to gain complementing sub stats. Each enhancement has a chance to receive a bonus amount of exp. There is a 90% chance to have a regular x1 Bonus stat, a 9% chance to gain x2 EXP and a 1% chance for it to multiplied by 5. Once these stats are revealed, players may choose to scrap the artifacts with not so ideal stats in order to gain more EXP, and continue to upgrade those with the ideal set of stats.

How to Enhance Artifacts in Genshin Impact

Artifacts can be enhanced with Artifact EXP and Mora. Artifact EXP is gained by using artifacts as fodder and art EXP materials. Just like weapons, players may choose to scrap or recycle unwanted artifacts to gain Artifact EXP. This can be done through the enhancement menu found on the character screen- select the character with the artifact and enhance to enter the menu.

Set Bonus

Equipping 2 or 4 different types of artifacts that belong to the same set gives a special bonus depending on the set. Since characters are only able to equip 5 artifacts each character can only have the 2 and 4-Piece bonus from one set or two 2-Piece bonuses from two different sets.

Leveling

With a great set of stats, players will want to further level up an enhanced Artifact. 1 EXP point will cost 1 Mora, except when recycling a leveled up artifact.
