Genshin Impact;Kamisato Ayato Guide

We tell you which artifacts, weapons and commands are best for Kamisato Ayato

The Genshin Impact 2.6 update introduces a new 5-star character from the Inazuma region, Kamisato Ayato. He is the brother of Kamisato Ayaka and is the current head of the Kamisato clan. And in this article we will tell you about skills, artifacts, weapons and commands for Kamisato Ayato.

Kamisato Ayato’s skills

This character is notable for its elemental skill and elemental explosion.

With the help of an elemental skill, he enters a special state in which his normal attacks are replaced with Shunsuiken attacks and they are endowed with Hydro infusion. While in this state, you cannot use charged attacks or falling attacks, but Shunsuiken attacks are affected by buffs like normal attacks.

Elemental Skill Kamisato Ayato

The explosion of the element creates an area in which enemies receive Hydro damage, and a character present on the battlefield receives a normal attack damage bonus.

How to play as Kamisato Ayato

Kamisato Ayato can be played both as a character that deals basic damage with an elemental skill (DD), and as a character that deals additional damage from an elemental explosion and enhances normal attacks (sub-DD). Mostly we will consider Ayato as the main damage dealer.

If he deals the main damage and is on the battlefield for most of the battle, then before using the elemental skill, you need to maximize his normal attacks, that is, use all the boosts that affect his normal attack, such as his elemental explosion or the buffs of other characters.

Skill Upgrade

The sequence of skills that should be improved depends on his role in the team. On the role of DD, you should simultaneously improve the elemental skill and the explosion of the elements, you can not improve the normal attack, since it does not affect the damage from the special state of the Takemaguri kanka of the elemental skill.

On the role of sub-DD in priority, we improve the explosion of the elements.

A weapon suitable for Kamisato Ayato

Five star

Of the five-star weapons suitable for Kamisato Ayato, we can distinguish:

  • Haran Geppaku Futsu. The most suitable option for Ayato, has a fairly high base attack power, critical hit chance and increases the damage of a normal attack and damage with all elements. But keep in mind that the full potential will be revealed if all the conditions of the passive effect of the weapon are met.
  • Breaking fog. It has a high base attack power, critical damage and increases elemental damage quite a lot.
  • Precious abyss. Also a pretty good weapon that increases the chance of a critical hit and gives an attack bonus depending on the maximum HP.

These weapons can be obtained from temporary prayers.

  • Montenegrin long sword. Also one of the strongest, has a good base attack power and increases critical damage. It can be bought at the Paimon store.

Artifacts for Kamisato Ayato

For Ayato, who deals the main damage, the full set of Echoes of the Offering artifacts is best. The bonus of this set increases the attack power and damage dealt by normal attacks, this bonus also affects the damage of the elemental skill. It can be knocked out in the Lost Valley dungeon in the Breach.

Artifact Echoes of Offering

Since a complete set with good stats is quite difficult to assemble, you can use two more pieces of Heart of the Deep and two pieces of Offering Echoes (these can be replaced with Gladiator’s End, Shimenawa’s Memories and Cinnabar Afterlife). Depths can be obtained from Vindagnir’s Peak Dungeon in Dragonspine Mountains.

Up to adventure rank 45, you can use the full Warrior set on him, which increases the damage of his normal attack.

Artifacts for Kamisato Ayato

For sub-DD Ayato, you can use the full set of “Emblem of Severed Fate” or “Ceremony of the Ancient Nobility”.
