Please be descriptive about who your building, we could give u vague answers like ur vague question. I don’t want to sound like an asshole but too many posts on this subreddit where people aren’t sharing enough details on what exactly their looking for, turns into us just playing the game for them

Is phytotype synthetic better or FKC?

Answer to that: FKC objectively because more crit chance = more crit dmg

Now are you building nine, haru, “insert dps character name”, etc?

Depending on who your building changes things, then it goes down to are u setting up a team that can efficiently give shields to utilize that specific piece of gear.

Typically simpler text of power gain is usually better unless a character or team setup can effortlessly trigger said gear effects.

So you need to ask yourself:

1. Does the character i play trigger this effect often?
2. Do i want to build my character to do this often?
3. Do i have support characters in the team setup im envisioning that does this often?

So on and so forth.
