Weaving BladePriority: Low (1-6)

4pcA character equipped with this Artifact set will obtain the Curiosity effect in the following conditions: When on the field, the character gains 1 stack after hitting an opponent with a Geo attack, triggering a maximum of once every 0.3s.

When 6 seconds pass without gaining a Curiosity stack, 1 stack is lost.

Husk of Opulent Dreams performs very similarly to Golden Troupe and can be slightly better if you use Chiori's Elemental Burst consistently.
