2 piece: ATK+18%

4 piece: After using the Elemental Burst, the character’s ATK will gain a buff of 8% for 16 seconds. When the character loses HP, Their ATK will increase by 10%. This increase can occur up to once every 0.8s, for 4 maximum stacks.

2 piece: ATK+18%

4 piece: Normal Attacks have a chance of 36% to trigger an effect which will increase the Normal ATK DMG of the character to 60%. This buff will last for 0.05 seconds

This artifact primarily focuses on Ayato’s Normal ATK DMG. If Ayato receives further buffs, then it is possible that his signature artifacts might change. Nevertheless, these Genshin Impact 2.6 leaks should be taken with a grain of salt as of now.
