Song of times gone by Genshin impact — a set of 4-5⭐ artifacts from the region Fontaine. Half of the set has a healing bonus that is universal for healers, and the full set allows the healer to act as a buffer. The set places high demands on the amount of healing and rotation in the team.
In the guide, we will look in detail at who the Song of Old Times is suitable for, how to get the set and use it correctly.
Where to find Song of Old Times artifacts in Genshin Impact
The Song of Old Times artifact set can be obtained in the dungeon City of Thunderstorms, located at the eastern foot of Mont Atoneki, in Fontaine. Use the ground teleporter located just above to get to the dungeon. On par with the set in question, it stands out Night Whispers in the Forest of Echoes.
By rarity, artifacts are divided into 4⭐ and 5⭐:
- 4⭐ quality can be obtained on any dungeon difficulty;
- 5⭐ pieces of the set drop with some probability from level III, and are guaranteed to be issued at IV difficulty.
Available difficulty for Dungeon of Blessing: The Fragmenting Gathering depends on adventure rank.
How the Song of Old Times works in Genshin Impact
Half the set increases the owner's healing bonus by 15%. The full set works from the healing skills of supports, regardless of whether the character is on the field or not. The passive effect can only be triggered by healing, the value of which is recorded over the next 6 seconds. Then the damage of any attacks and skills increases by 8% of the fixed heal value. The buff lasts for 10 seconds or 5 buff-enhanced hits made by any active squad member.
Set Bonuses
2 parts: Increases healing bonus by 15%.
4 parts: Equipped character when healing squad members for 6 sec. creates an Aspiration effect that registers the performed healing (including excess). When the duration ends, Endeavor turns into Waves of the Old Time: When your active character hits an enemy with a Normal Attack, Charged Attack, Falling Attack, Elemental Skill, or Elemental Burst, the damage dealt is increased by 8% of the total amount of healing registered by Endeavor.
After 5 activations or after 10 sec. the effect of the Waves of those times disappears. A one-time effect of Aspiration registers up to 15 units. HP. Only one Aspiration can exist at a time, but it can register healing provided by multiple equipped characters at once. This effect activates even if the equipped character is not on the battlefield.

Who is suitable for Song of Old Times in Genshin Impact?
Both half and full sets are suitable exclusively for healers. The set allows you to increase the amount of character healing, which is transformed into a damage bonus. The effect will be useful for supports in almost any team, regardless of the element of the main DD and his play style, since the boost is universal and gives an increase in damage, and not individual characteristics.
The table lists heroes with the optimal amount of healing for the set to work. Also, the skills of the characters considered are high in duration and do not require being on the field, so they do not prevent the damage dealer from using all 5 stacks of “Waves of Old Times”.
Character | Recommendation |
---|---|
Furina | It is Furina who can best realize the effect of the set, but only if several mandatory requirements are met: a healing build (mode «Pneuma») and the presence of the main damage dealer from Fontaine, who reduces his HP throughout the entire battle. C2 is also desirable. The Streamsinger's healing works precisely in such a way as to fulfill the requirements of the set with minimal effect cooldown. Since the skill does not deal damage, all the buffs go to the party’s damage dealers—Furina’s main advantage over other healers. To accumulate the fanfare bonus, you need a main DD with the mechanics of lowering your own HP, otherwise the rotation will become much more difficult. |
Kokomi | Restores a huge amount of health, so it sells the kit well. Over the course of three ticks, the Oath of Kurage skill will accumulate enough healing for the full effect of the Waves of Bygone Times. During one use of the skill, it will be able to activate the effect twice, then go into cooldown. |
Xian Yun | Best option for teams that already have media emerald shadow. Will increase the quality of treatment and damage of allies, especially beneficial in units with Anemo damage dealers. |
Charlotte | The journalist's ultimate instantly restores a huge amount of health to all squad members and lasts only 4 seconds. However, the high cooldown of the elemental explosion cannot guarantee the frequent use of the set's effects. The situation is greatly simplified at C6, when Charlotte's marks gain the ability to restore the health of the active character every 6 seconds. |
Cookies | Can become a carrier of the set, but only outside of Budding units, since the enhancements do not apply to damage from reactions. The short cooldown window for the Ring of Sanctification skill ensures a stable accumulation of the effect throughout the battle. |
Dori | It is endowed with good periodic healing, so it can also equip a set. During the duration of the ultimate, it can activate the set effect twice, then a small cooldown window for the elemental explosion will appear. Difficulties may arise when playing due to the Djinn's small communication radius, since even excess healing must continue to be received, and enemies may be out of reach. |
Bai Zhu | A character with high and frequent healing of the ultimate ability will be able to activate the set buff throughout the battle. The small cooldown window is quietly filled with the healing skill. The only condition is that the team should not rely on damage from Budding, since the effects of the set do not increase the damage of reactions. |
Yaoyao | The baby boasts a skill healing frequency that increases many times after using an elemental explosion. Like Baizhu, he can equip a set outside of units with Budding, Blooming or Vegetation to increase the damage of his main damage dealer. |
Chevreuse | Thanks to high-quality healing, Chevreuse quickly activates the buff, strengthening the main damage dealer. One of the best carriers of the set, as the set complements her initial role as a support in the squad. |
Let's look separately at healers, who also give out a huge amount of treatment, but have more suitable sets or spend several stacks effect through skill damage.
- Qi qi: With her, the buff from the set only works with long breaks, since her ultimate is expensive and has a long cooldown, and also damages enemies when activated, which immediately costs one stack. In addition, the zombie girl's E-shka also has a long cooldown, but this can be solved by using Sacrificial Sword.
- Barbara: Similar to Qiqi, it only accumulates the maximum set bonus through an elemental burst. The skill and ult also have a high cooldown and regeneration intervals, and therefore the set is highly not recommended for a character;
- Diona, Bennettt, Jean и Sayu create a field for 10-12 seconds, within which the active character receives treatment. The amount of HP restored is enough to register the maximum of "Aspiration", however, the listed supports have much more suitable options that are combined with their mechanics and the duration of the effects.
Two parts of the set increase the healing bonus, therefore they are suitable for all of the above healers in combination with other sets. Heroes who could benefit from a healing boost can also add Noelle и Miku.
What artifacts to combine with the Song of Bygone Times set
Depending on the parameter that affects the amount of treatment for specific characters, the set can be combined with other sets. It also makes a good combination with a set to restore energy if the character critically needs an ultimate. Use the following options for attack power, defense, HP or mastery of the elements to increase the desired characteristic:
- Emblem of Severed Fate;
- Gladiator’s Finale (Shimenawa's Reminiscence, Vermillion Hereafter, Echoes of an Offering, Night Whispers in the Forest of Echoes);
- Husk of Opulent Dreams;
- Itinerant ensemble (Gilded Dreams, Paradise lost flower);
- Tenacity of the Millelith (Vourukasha’s Glow).

They lost Chevreuse, she heals 6 times in 12 seconds and can activate a set bonus 1 times for 2 meal. Considering that she is an excellent support, this set is generally a signature set for her. For full profit, you need to achieve a healing of 5k HP per tick, which is possible with C3, 46k HP and a cap in the healing bonus, which is quite possible to collect (especially with a black brush in your hands).
I wonder how much better it will be for Charlotte. I have it c6. And I’m thinking of leaving the milith set. Or farm this new set
I wonder how this set will fit on baby Sigwine, if according to rumors she is supposed to be a healer
according to rumors she is dd
As a result, the set is a complete mess that will not suit anyone. Of course, I laughed wildly at the furina in this set.
What are you talking about, yes furina sub dd, but first of all she is a buffer. and with this set she will heal for 7.5k, then she can be transferred to airborne, she will heal 2 pokes and peck enemies with ease. and if you have a furin in your squad, then you have a 100% healer, and since the set works even when the Persian is not on the battlefield, then the furin can’t even enter the imba set of the day into the pneuma and this is a new signa set of benet.
Who cares how much she heals if you lose a ton of damage. Collect furina in hil-i***tism in the terminal stage. Well, okay, a great signal for Bennettt, who was rude and doesn’t give a word at all.
Why is this set imba for her. firstly, with this set she will heal at 7.5k, you can put them in the stump, she will heal in pokes and then in usia. and if you have furina in your squad, then it’s 100% a healer, and since the set works even in the pocket, then you don’t even need to introduce furina into the pneuma. Yes, you lose damage, but your main DD will start to hit harder, is that bad or what?
Yes, this is bad, considering how much damage you lose on furin. Furina has too much damage from her pocket to ruin everything for her with such i***tism.
no one thought about Barbara healing from her pocket, no one tried this set on her?
Agree. Moreover, going to this dungeon without Navia or Itto makes no sense at all. And the Golden Troupe and The Hunter of the Twilight Court will be useful to many people. In short, this dungeon is for the future. Now it makes little sense.
