INAZUMA ARTIFACTS: Emblem of severe fate seem the perfect fit for Baal

This artifact is great for supports. It looks like its tailor made for Baal, the electro archon who will be available very soon.

Shinemawa’s Reminiscence
2 piece set: ATK +18
4 piece set: When casting an elemental skill, if the character has 15 or more energy, they lose 15 energy and normal/charged/plunged attack DMG is increased by 50% by 10 seconds.

So far a very niche artifact, it's useful to some extent for Yoimiya and Ganyu (evaporate). 2 piece boost of damage is useful, considering Gladiator Artifacts are hard to get.
