<\/span>Hu Tao Best Artifacts Guide<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\nWhile the weapon you wield is of utmost importance, choosing the best artifact for a DPS Hu Tao build is essential. That being said, the term “best” can actually vary depending on your playstyle. That’s why we did not only talk about the best artifact for this character but also listed the ones that serve as an alternative. Let’s dive in and have a look at the artifacts you can go with for the beloved Pyro.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/span>1.
