Sethos is a unique 4-star Electro DPS character in Genshin Impact with multiple playstyles. Luckily, no matter how you play him, Sethos can be built the same way. Here are the best weapons and artifacts for Sethos!
Sethosā best weapons in Genshin Impact
Hunterās Path: best 5-star weapon for Sethos
Sethosā best weapon is the 5-star Hunterās Path. Despite being Tighnariās signature Bow, Hunterās Path has a great passive for Sethos, increasing his Charged Attack damage based on his Elemental Mastery. If you happen to have Hunterās Path in your inventory, Sethos makes for a great user. I wouldnāt recommend pulling Hunterās Path specifically for Sethos, though.
Slingshot: most accessible weapon for Sethos
Oddly enough, the 3-star Slingshot is one of Sethosā best weapons. It has a low base ATK, but it provides a good amount of CRIT Rate as well as a DMG buff to Normal and Charged Attacks. As long as youāre not too far from your enemy, Slingshot is able to buff Sethos by a significant amount. Slingshot is easily obtained through wishes, and you should aim for Refinement Rank 5 if possible.
Cloudforged: decent 4-star weapon for Sethos
If you donāt have an R5 Slingshot in your inventory, you can opt for Cloudforged instead. Its passive works for Sethos whether heās using his Normal Attacks or Charged Attacks. Still, I recommend using Slingshot if possible.
Despite being featured in promotional material, Scion of the Blazing Sun is not worth buying for Sethos, especially since it requires spending real-life money on the Battle Pass.
Artifact sets for Sethos in Genshin Impact
4pc Wandererās Troupe
4pc Wandererās Troupe is Sethosā best artifact set. It provides both Elemental Mastery and an unconditional Charged Attack buff. Wandererās Troupe artifacts can be farmed using artifact strongboxes, though you can get additional pieces while defeating world bosses.
4pc Gilded Dreams
4pc Gilded Dreams provides Sethos with a large amount of Elemental Mastery depending on his teammatesā elements. Gilded Dreams artifacts are easier to farm than Wandererās Troupe, but Wandererās Troupe provides more consistent buffs. Still, the two are similar enough where you can use whichever you feel more comfortable with.
Artifact stats to prioritize for Sethos
Sands | Goblet | Circlet |
Elemental Mastery | Electro DMG | CRIT Rate/DMG |
Sethos should have about 120% Energy Recharge for comfortable rotations. Just make sure he triggers a reaction with his Skill, which shouldnāt be an issue as long as you have other elements in your team. If paired with Fischl, Sethos can forgo building Energy Recharge entirely.
Prioritize Sethosā offensive stats, which are primarily CRIT and Elemental Mastery. ATK doesnāt hurt either, but most of Sethosā damage scaling comes from Elemental Mastery rather than ATK.
