Best Tartaglia build: Weapons

Best Tartaglia build: Artifacts

While Childe’s incredibly versatile, your best bet for his artifacts is almost always going to be a 4-pieceHeart of Depthset. This set will boost your Hydro DMG and increase Normal and Charged Attack DMG after using an Elemental Skill. Since you’ll be using Normal Attacks and Elemental Skills frequently, this set is your best friend.

Not feeling up for the Heart of Depth?Noblesse Oblige, which boosts your Elemental Burst DMG and increases ATK after using your Burst, is also a solid option for dealing with bosses. Finally, theWanderer’s Troupeset can work as well thanks to its Elemental Mastery buff, though we’d recommend using one of the other two in this list since Wanderer’s Troupe buffs Charged Attack DMG, which isn’t something you’ll need much of.

When selecting stats and substats for Childe’s artifacts, we’d recommend sticking with ATK%, Hydro DMG Bonus, Elemental Mastery, and CRIT Rate/DMG.

Best Tartaglia build: Ascension Materials

To fully ascend Childe, you’ll need 1 Varunada Lazurite Sliver, 9 Varunada Lazurite Fragments, 9 Varunada Lazurite Chunks, 6 Varunada Lazurite Gemstones, 46 Cleansing Hearts, 168 Starconches, 18 Recruit’s Insignia, 30 Sergeant’s Insignias, and 36 Lieutenant’s Insignia.

Best Tartaglia build: Talents

To fully level Childe’s talents, you’ll need 9 Teachings of Freedom, 63 Guides to Freedom, 114 Philosophies of Freedom, 18 Recruit’s Insignias, 66 Sergeant’s Insignias, 93 Lieutenant’s Insignias, 18 Shards of a Foul Legacy, and 3 Crowns of Insight.

Maxing out Childe’sElemental Skillfirst is always your best bet since this is where most of his damage comes from. When using this skill, though, be aware that the longer he’s in his Melee Stance, the longer his Skill’s cooldown will be. We’d recommend leveling hisBurstand then hisNormal Attacknext regardless of if he’s a main or sub DPS. Here’s what Childe has to offer:

Best Tartaglia build: Constellations

Childe definitely doesn’t need any Constellations to carry your team, but if you’re looking to go above and beyond,Constellation 1is incredibly useful since it shortens his Elemental Skill’s dreadfully long cooldown period. Since Childe excels with his Skill, anything that boosts this ability will be a great addition to your build.Constellation 3is also great for this reason and will increase his Skill’s level. Here’s everything Childe’s Constellations have in store:
