Best Implements for Argos

Retainer's Code

Best

HP % +12% (4 pieces). Increases the holder's HP by 12%. When the character's Ultimate Charge Efficiency exceeds 150%, all other team members gain 6% DMG.

  • For a Secret Lock, Retainer's Code Neck ImplementFor a Secret LockNeck
  • For a Peaceful Sleep, Retainer's Code Secondary Weapon ImplementFor a Peaceful SleepSecondary Weapon
  • For a Fine Afternoon, Retainer's Code Accessory ImplementFor a Fine AfternoonAccessory

Why: Our pick: the HP line feeds his Bartending Insight ATK buff, and past 150% Ultimate Charge Efficiency every teammate gains 6% DMG.

Queen's Divine Right

Alternative

Ultimate Charge Efficiency +15% (4 pieces). Increases the holder's Ultimate Charge Efficiency by 15%. When the character's Amplitude Multiplier exceeds 150%, all other team members gain 18% Amplitude Multiplier.

  • Terror Over Adoration, Queen's Divine Right Secondary Weapon ImplementTerror Over AdorationSecondary Weapon
  • Fear Not Cruelty, Queen's Divine Right Accessory ImplementFear Not CrueltyAccessory

Why: Raw Ultimate Charge Efficiency means more Eye of Argos casts per fight, which is when his 40s team ATK buff refreshes.

Implement stats are fixed, not rolled. Set data is fan-compiled from the game files; where each set drops is in the Implements guide.

Best Epiphany for Argos

The Red Shoes Epiphany

The Red Shoes

Best

Ultimate Charge Efficiency +30%

Increases the holder's Ultimate Charge Efficiency by 20%. When they deal Ultimate DMG, all characters on the team gain 1 stack of Sanguine Step. Each stack of Sanguine Step increases CRIT DMG by 14% for 40s, stacking up to 3 times.

Why: Our pick: his Ultimate is the trigger, so one cast on each swap-in gives the whole team up to 42% CRIT DMG for 40s.

Resurrected Monstrosity Epiphany

Resurrected Monstrosity

Alternative

Ultimate Charge Efficiency +30%

Increases the holder's Ultimate Charge Efficiency by 20%. Upon unleashing their Tactical Assault, Skill, or Ultimate, they gain 1 Testing Records stack, lasting 40s and stacking up to 3 times. Testing Records stacks are consumed when a character unleashes their Tactical Assault, increasing their Amplitude Multiplier by 41.5% for 16s.

Why: Behind a Resonance carry such as Bentham, its 41.5% Amplitude Multiplier on a teammate's Tactical Assault beats CRIT DMG that resonance does not use.

The Epiphany is the fifth gear slot, one per character. Duplicates raise its stats, never its effect. Effects are fan-compiled from the game files.

Argos stats

Chase Max HP first: Bartending Insight adds ATK to every teammate on top of its flat 1,000, and that extra part scales with his Max HP (character stats guide). Then take Ultimate Charge Efficiency above 150%, the line where Retainer's Code shares 6% DMG with the team. The Red Shoes brings 30% of it as a main stat, and his own ATK hardly matters.

Argos skill priority

  5. 5Bartending Insight, Argos's PassivePassiveBartending InsightOne levelBartending Insight's flat ATK buff

Our order, not a creator's. Argos spends seconds on the field, so materials go into the three buttons he actually presses on a swap-in: The Eye of Argos, Celebratory Champagne and Screwdriver. Cane and Spirits only matters for the one empowered hit during Piercing Gaze.

What every level costs is on the Argos materials page.

Argos Psyches

  1. Psyche ICity Wanderer. During Piercing Gaze, Argos's Lv. 2 Charged Attack increases the DMG dealt by all characters on the team by 20% on hit.
  2. Psyche IINon-Violent Communication. Increases Argos's Tactical Assault DMG by 20%.
  3. Psyche IIISelf-Fulfilling Prophecy. Argos's skills reduce the enemy's DEF by 15% for 40s.
  4. Psyche IVPerceptual Blindness. Increases Argos's Ultimate DMG by 10%.
  5. Psyche VOld Reserves. After Argos uses his Ultimate, he increases the Glacies DMG of all characters on the team by 15% for 40s. Does not stack.
  6. Psyche VIAll-Seeing Eye. During Piercing Gaze, Argos's Final DMG increases by 10%.

Each Psyche costs one more copy of Argos. Effects are fan-compiled from the game files. Our reading: City Wanderer (Psyche I) matters most, since his empowered Charged Attack during Piercing Gaze then gives the whole team 20% DMG, and Self-Fulfilling Prophecy (Psyche III) with its 15% DEF cut comes next. The character progression guide explains the system.
