Genshin Impact Kamisato Ayaka Best Build Guide – Best weapons and Artifacts

Published by

Here is our Best Build Guide for Ayaka, the eldest daughter of the Kamisato Clan in Genshin Impact. Find the best weapons and artifacts for her!

Ayaka is a 5-star Cryo character in Genshin Impact. She is not just an Inazuma Royalty but also quite skilled at using the sword. We first got a glimpse of her in the closed beta but didn’t hear much about her.  Because of her social status as the eldest daughter of the Kamisato Clan of the Yashiro Commission and as the Shirasagi Himegimi, Ayaka is seen as a model of perfection.

Her talents and abilities suggest she is a DPS-oriented character with a lot of Cryo elemental effects. Mona and Ayaka are a natural match because Mona’s Hydro talents set up Ayaka’s follow-up Cyro effects to freeze enemies on the spot, but there are a few other options. Players can also pair her with Xingqui or Xinagling for similar Elemental Reactions. Find out more in our Ayaka Best Build Guide.
