Great for Cryo-DPS

Blizzard Strayer is a very good Artifact Set if you want your DPS to deal a lot of CRIT hits, provided that the enemy can be affected by Cryo.

The character using the 4-piece set of this artifact will get not only a boost on Cryo DMG but also get an additional +40% CRIT Rate when enemies are affected by Cryo and Frozen.

So we recommend you pair your Cryo DPS with a Hydro character!

Best Characters and Explanation

Character Explanation
Wriothesley Image Wriothesley • Wriothesley's second best artifact set for Freeze teams. Lets him focus on CRIT DMG stats instead of CRIT Rate
Ganyu Image Ganyu • Ganyu deals massive Cryo DMG on all her attacks so the 4-piece set will strengthen her Cryo DMG on her Charged Attack, Elemental Skill, and Elemental Burst.
• Her Charged Attack boosts her Crit Rate by 20% for 5s so when they get affected by Cryo, Ganyu will get an additional 20% CRIT Rate and another 20% if her enemies get Frozen.
• Plus, Ganyu's AoE Elemental Burst can grant 20% Cryo DMG which will have a total of +35% with this set.
Ayaka Image Ayaka • Currently Ayaka's best 4pc. Artifact set.
• Boosts the damage of Ayaka's Normal Attacks, Elemental Skill, and Elemental Burst.
Shenhe Image Shenhe • Good alternative set if users wan't to give Shenhe more personal damage.
Kaeya Image Kaeya • The 4-piece set on Kaeya would boost his Cryo DMG and his CRIT Rate would scale up when he applies Cryo or Frozen on his enemies.
Chongyun Image Chongyun • Chongyun's Elemental Skill and Burst inflicts Cryo DMG on his enemies and a 4-piece set would strengthen that.
• In addition, Chongyun's AoE Elemental Skill deals constant Cryo and create many opportunities to inflict Frozen on enemies which would grant Chongyun more CRIT Rate.
Rosaria Image Rosaria • The 2-piece set effect on Rosaria would boost her Cryo DMG for her Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst.

Friendly reminds that this set is good for Ayaka too.

I mean if you really WANT to freeze, then yeah Blizzard is amazing. But this is strictly personal damage. overall team damage is a different story, one where Blizzard isn't BiS (since supports in freeze teams usually have poor dmg)
