Kamisato Ayato has enchanted the Genshin Impact community since his debut in the 2.6 patch update.
The head of the Kamisato Clan is truly a unique and valuable asset for many teams. With his versatile kit and fast-paced style of DPS, Ayato has quickly grabbed his place in many Spiral Abyss teams and has made his mark on the current meta.
The new patch update also introduced a new artifact domain that drops Ayato’s signature weapon. However, he is not picky with his artifacts and can take advantage of many other artifacts for his builds.
This article will discuss everything players need to about F2P builds and P2W builds for Kamisato Ayato in Genshin Impact.
Genshin Impact: Best artifacts, and weapons for Kamisato Ayato build (F2P & P2W options)
Kamisato Ayato is a Hydro Sword user with a versatile set of abilities, making it possible to build him for both off-field and on-field playstyle.
Ayato's elemental skill changes his stance and increases his normal attack speed, allowing him to do three combo attacks in a single duration. These attacks are infused with Hydro to deal maximum Hydro damage.
Ayato can make a total of 15 rapid attacks without his elemental burst and other speed buffs. Players should focus on his elemental skill if they want to build Ayato to be the main damage dealer or on-field enabler.
Genshin Impact players who want to play Ayato as an off-field damage dealer and Hydro enabler can focus on his Elemental Burst. With a duration of 18 seconds, Ayato has the longest elemental burst duration and burst animation in Genshin Impact, as it will rain Hydro droplets inside his AoE.
With an 80 Energy cost, Ayato does not face energy issues due to his Passive talent, as he can generate particles for himself when he is not on the field.
Kamisto Ayato has crit damage, as his ascension stat can have 88.4% crit damage when he ascends to level 80/90. Hence, Genshin Impact players will not have a tough time investing in their desired Ayato builds.
Like his playstyle, Ayato is very flexible with his artifacts as well. Currently, Ayato can take advantage of four artifacts so players will already have 2-piece sets ready for him.
