If you want to make Baden perform at peak performance in AFK Arena, you need to run the right built. While many players think simply maxing out will do the trick (well, not too wrong), there are certain sweetspots with Baden that will give a big boost so I have some recommendations below that you will very likely find interesting.
Baden’s Signature Item should be at +10. Baden’s Signature Item is horribly designed. The additional health for the phantoms doesn’t help at all because they simply don’t have much health and still die fast. His +30 effect is a joke..

Furniture Recommendation
Overall it’s recommended to get Baden’s 9/9 furniture set bonus. Baden’s Healing clones is useless because they normally die instantly when hit but his immunity of the full bonus is actually nice to prevent fatal damage in the right setups. Still not worth the investment. If you want to learn more about in what order to unlock your heroes furniture sets, check out my furniture priority guide here.
Recommended Artifacts
Chaosbringer is the best artifact to run with Baden in most cases, although you can also consider running Duras Eye or Duras Blade as backups, depending on your team setup and what artifact you have available.
Engraving
In terms of Engravings, your final goal should be E36.. With his engravings you can scale but only effective in rounds in Cursed Realm where he is the damage dealer, so nothing to worry about as a regular player. Learn more about my recommended engraving priority here.
