If you want to make Safiya 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 Safiya that will give a big boost so I have some recommendations below that you will very likely find interesting.
Safiya’s Signature Item should be at +20. When first reading about her stacking buff you think this will be crazy strong… but in reality, this buff isn’t stacking up that fast. Getting her Signature Item to +20 is a good choice, no doubt, but only to +20 as the +30 effect is pretty useless because almost never triggered..

Furniture Recommendation
Overall it’s recommended to get Safiya’s -/9 furniture set bonus. Safiya Not useful because won’t apply. Extending the pyramid (3/9) won’t trigger as most battles are over before it even ends. The 9/9 increases her ultimate charge but is only useful in really fast team setups.

Recommended Artifacts
Warden of the Arcane is the best artifact to run with Safiya in most cases, although you can also consider running Windbinder or Duras Call as backups, depending on your team setup and what artifact you have available.
