Who is Athame Artis suitable for in Genshin Impact?
Athame Artis is excellent for sub-DDs, who need to consistently use their ultimate and buff their team's and their own ATK. However, the weapon isn't suitable for playing with hyper-carries, whose key stat isn't attack power. In other words, in teams of Judge Neuvillette or Guide Mualani, the sword will not provide a significant increase to their personal damage.
The blade's wielder must meet certain criteria to be able to implement the equipment's effect:
- Possess an elemental burst capable of inflicting damage minimum for 3 seconds
- Have an ult that is an important part of the gameplay or is the basis of the hero's damage.
- Depend on attack power or is in a team where this stat is extremely important for main damage dealer.
- The team has two characters from the Hexenzirkel faction, and the weapon's wielder can be one of them.
Due to the limited list of Hexenzirkel character and their elements, some teams are unable to realize the full conditions of the passive. For example, the team of Warriors Skirk should consist exclusively of Hydro and Cryo heroes. However, given the elemental restrictions, such a team can only include Astrologer Mona, which doesn't fulfill the passive requirement, so the weapon is not suitable for her.
The poisonous dragon Durin is the best choice to own the sword, as he is the one it is intended for:
| Character | Features |
 |
The young man's signature equipment, possessing all the stats he needs. Due to his affiliation with the hexenzirkel, he only needs one character from the list to achieve the desired status and realize the second part of the bonus. |
When it comes to heroes with less gear synergy, the following companions are worth considering. Under certain circumstances, Athame Artis can even be given to a pure support if the ATK bonus for the primary damage dealer is of interest.
None of them are included in the Hexenzirkel list, so when using them, it is advisable to have two companions from this faction in the group.

The blade is inferior to his own Freedom-Sworn, but due to favorable conditions and the lack of strict requirements for teammates, the ronin from Inazuma has an easier time implementing this gear. The hero's role as a support and buffer will allow him to become an indispensable ally in some teams, and with C2, the need for additional energy regeneration will be more justified by the team's EM. |
 |
The Cavalry Captain has a suitable ultimate and fits easily into many teams. It's important to understand that to be effective, he requires consumables, which aren't easy to obtain. |
 |
For the Academy student, the sword is a viable option due to its suitably powerful elemental burst. Layla can utilize the passive ability of Athame Artis, but this should be viewed solely as a team buff, not as an increase to her personal damage output. |
 |
The Yashiro Commission boss can wield this weapon in a team that has astrologer Mona, alchemist's apprentice Sucrose, Archon Venti or Princess FischlAt the same time, he can occupy the role of both a secondary and a primary damage dealer. |
 |
The young writer from Liyue is also a worthy wielder of equipment due to high damage output of his Q. Given his high energy requirements, in many cases Sacrificial Sword will remain a more convenient and affordable solution. |
 |
Ms. Kamisato's key strength lies in her ultimate, which remains on the field for several seconds thanks to its unique mechanics. This makes her a potential Athame Artis wielder, which maximizes her passive. Even without fully utilizing the sword, she'll gain significantly more than other legendary options, with the exception of her Signature, especially with C2. For the weapon's talent to work to its full potential, Mona, Sucrose, or Venti are required in the party. |
How to use this weapon
The equipment's operating principle is quite simple: the wearer deals damage with their elemental burst and thereby distributes buffs. These buffs last for about 3 seconds. As a result, a hit counted as ultimate damage must hit enemies at least once during this time, so the buff is extended, and all active heroes continue to receive bonus ATK.
Having two companions with the "Magic" status in the group increases the amount of attack power and critical damage of the super ability by 75% of the initial damage, which is a significant increase. To utilize Athame Artis, use the following rotation during battles in Genshin Impact:
- Supports activate their key abilities. It's best to start with those whose bonuses last longer.
- Turn in your Blademaster skill to gain energy. If you've reached the required Q level, use your ultimate to utilize your passive and ATK distribution.
- The main damage dealer enters the field and, with all buffs, performs their own rotation. Once the buffs wear off, the entire process starts over.
It's a good sword, it's just a shame it dropped instead of Nicole's catalyst. At least Durin will be able to carry the signature.
will it fit on a skirt?
When will Diona be added to the Sabbath?
Will it work for cookies? I have absolutely nowhere to put it.
Guys, is it possible to put it on Skirk if she carries a r3 crafted Fontaine sword? I lost to Venti's Signa 🙁 and I don't know where to put the weapon. Durin is not there. What would be better, Durin's Signa, or should I leave it as is?
It's a good crit counter. If you frequently lose your ultimate, the first part of the passive will be useful and increase your damage. The attack damage buff is unfortunately too short, but the base attack and CS substats outweigh Durin's signature.
Can we put it on Al Haytham now that he has the oath of freedom on him?
