Here is our Genshin Impact Kamisato Ayato Best Build Guide. Find out which artifacts and weapons you should be using for him.
Kamisato Ayato is a 5-Star Sword user with the Hydro Vision in Genshin Impact. He is the older brother of Kamisato Ayaka and the current head of the Kamisato Clan. This fine gentleman has tons of responsibilities since he is the Yashiro Commissioner. But he makes time for himself every day and enjoys some nice Boba Tea.
Ayato is a great Hydro DPS character with continuous Hydro application which is very helpful to trigger Elemental Reactions. He is very easy to play for beginners as you just have to use his Elemental Skill and hold the attack button for quick attack combos. Here is our Genshin Impact Ayato Best Build Guide.
Normal Attack – Performs up to 5 rapid strikes.
Charged Attack – Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to dash forward and perform an iai.
Plunging Attack – Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging enemies along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact.
Kamisato Ayato shifts positions and enters the Takimeguri Kanka state. After this shift, he will leave a watery illusion at his original location. After it is formed, the watery illusion will explode if opponents are nearby or after its duration ends, dealing AoE Hydro DMG.
Takimeguri Kanka
In this state, Kamisato Ayato uses his Shunsuiken to engage in blindingly fast attacks, causing DMG from his Normal Attacks to be converted into AoE Hydro DMG. This cannot be overridden.
It also has the following properties:
Takimeguri Kanka will be cleared when Ayato leaves the field. Using Kamisato Art: Kyouka again while in the Takimeguri Kanka state will reset and replace the pre-existing state.
Unveils a garden of purity that silences the cacophony within. While this space exists, Bloomwater Blades will constantly rain down and attack opponents within its AoE, dealing Hydro DMG and increasing the Normal Attack DMG of characters within.
When Kamisato Ayato cooks a dish perfectly, he has a set chance to receive an additional Suspicious dish of the same type.
If Ayato is not on the field and his Energy is low, he will regenerate a set amount of Energy at regular intervals.
When Ayato uses his Elemental Skill and when the watery illusion explodes, he will gain a set amount of Namisen stacks.
Base Attack: 46
Bonus Effect: CRIT Rate 7.2%
Skill Effect – Obtain 12% All Elemental DMG Bonus. When other nearby party members use Elemental Skills, the character equipping this weapon will gain 1 Wavespike stack. Max 2 stacks. This effect can be triggered once every 0.3s. When the character equipping this weapon uses an Elemental Skill, all stacks of Wavespike will be consumed to gain Rippling Upheaval: each stack of Wavespike consumed will increase Normal Attack DMG by 20% for 8s.
Base Attack: 44
Bonus Effect: CRIT Rate + 9.6%
Skill Effect – HP increased by 20%. Additionally, provides an ATK Bonus based on 1.2% of the wielder’s Max HP.
Base Attack: 42
Bonus Effect: CRIT Rate 6.0%
Skill Effect – Increases DMG dealt by Normal and Charged Attacks by 20%. Additionally, regenerates 60% of ATK as HP when Normal and Charged Attacks score a CRIT Hit. This effect can occur once every 5s.
Ayato has Crit Damafe as his Ascension bonus so it makes sense to use a weapon with Crit Rate as the Bonus stat. Unfortunately, his best weapons are the two 5-star ones and a battle pass one. A free to play friendly option is the Amenoma Kageuchi.
Ayato has a special artifat set tailored to his abilities. But you will need to invest a ton of resin to get good artifacts. Heart of Depthand Gladiator’s FInale are great since they are reaily available and can be used by other characters as well.
Shunsuiken DMG is increased by 40% against opponents with 50% HP or less.
Namisen’s maximum stack count is increased to 5. When Kamisato Ayato has at least 3 Namisen stacks, his Max HP is increased by 50%.
After using Kamisato Art: Suiyuu, all nearby party members will have 15% increased Normal Attack SPD for 15s.
After using Kamisato Art: Kyouka, Ayato’s next Shunsuiken attack will create 2 extra Shunsuiken strikes when they hit opponents, each one dealing 450% of Ayato’s ATK as DMG.
Both these Shunsuiken attacks will not be affected by Namisen.
If you like Ayato, you can go for more constellations to make him more powerful. C2 is a great constellation as it increases the Elemental Skill damage. And C4 is great for sub-DPS Ayato.
