Genshin Impact Artifacts Guide: Best Domains to use your resin

By Ivy CandelariaGenshin Impact Writer

After playing a certain time in Genshin Impact, players will find themselves making entire runs for acquiring and leveling up Artifacts.

It is undoubtedly the hardest grind in the game, and perhaps the part of the game that requires the most analysis along the way.

With that in mind, we have designed a list of the best domains to spend your precious resin and time in to become an expert in Artifacts.

What is Resin?

Before listing the best domains, let's first talk about Resin and why it is crucial not to waste this important resource.

Resin is an Energy resource necessary to claim rewards from Bosses, Domains, and small banks of world items called Ley Line Blossoms.

Different regions and domains will give specific artifact sets in exchange for some of your resin. This means you'll need resin to claim important rewards, and using this resin wisely in the right places will mean getting the best artifacts with less work.

DOMAINS: Domains are combat dungeons where players can obtain important materials

Original Resin regenerates at a rate of 1 unit every 8 minutes, but it will cap at 160 units.

Domains of Blessing

Domains of Blessing are combat dungeons that award Artifacts after defeating all enemies. Players will find two major artifact sets per domain.

Domains of Blessing are available all the time after unlocking them, and they will provide random artifact pieces for the cost of 20 Resin.

BIG REWARDS: Artifacts and their stats depend on RNG based on region

Players can claim rewards from these domains as many times they want as long they have resin.

Best Domains

Considering Resin is the only energy for so many types of artifacts and ascension materials in the game, players can improve their accounts plenty by making efficient use of Resin.

With that in mind, these are the most efficient Domains of Blessing in Genshin Impact 2.6:

Momiji-Dyed Court

  • Located on Yashiori Island in Inazuma.
  • Main Artifacts: Emblem of Severed Fate and Shimenawa's Reminiscence
    • Emblem of Severed Fate: Provides Energy Recharge and buff to Elemental Burst
      • BIS for characters like Yae Miko, Raiden Shogun, Xiangling, and great for Support characters.
    • Shimenawa's Reminiscence: The artifact Set is handy as a 2 piece combination build, providing 18% extra ATK to most characters.
      • 4 piece set good for Ganyu, Yoimiya, and Hu Tao.

Peak of Vindagnyr

  • Located on Dragonspine in Mondstadt.
  • Main Artifacts: Blizzard Strayer and Heart of Depth
  • This domain provides artifacts focused on certain elements, but both are very powerful.
    • Blizzard Strayer: Artifact set for Cryo characters. 4 pieces will provide up to 40% additional Crit. Rate against frozen enemies.
    • Heart of Depth: The four passive pieces are a bit niche, just good for characters like Ayato and Tartaglia.
      • Two pieces provide extra Hydro DMG, universally used with Noblesse Oblige for hydro characters.

Valley of Remembrance

  • Located near the Dawn Winery on Mondstadt.
  • Main Artifacts: Viridescent Venerer and Maiden Beloved
  • Only one set is useful in this domain, but the Viridescent set has a powerful passive.

      • Best set for all Anemo Characters except for Xiao, although he can use two pieces.

      • Best Artifact Set for Barbara.

Noblesse Oblige

Noblesse Oblige is an excellent artifact set for most support characters. However, we recommend getting these artifacts from the Mystic Offering in the Craft Table.

Specialized Artifact Sets

The following Blessing Domains have very niche but important uses. Players must farm these domains having in mind a certain character or team.

Slumbering Court

  • Main Artifacts:
    • Ocen-Hued Clam: Set that increases the DMG output for characters with healing
      • Good for Kokomi sub DPS and Qiqi.

Ridge Watch

  • Main Artifacts:
    • Pale Flame: Artifact set specialized in Physical Damage.
      • Best set for Eula and Razor.
    • Tenacity of Millelith: Four pieces provide a consistent outfield ATK buff.
