✦✦Ayato Build Guide!✦✦
> Points to consider before building :
- Ayato is a Hydro Sword user, who probably has the most easy and vanilla kit to exist in the game. His playstyle involves pressing his E skill and dealing damage with his "Shunsuiken slashes" in a wide AoE infront of him.
- He is highly F2P friendly and very easy to build and play. You can defeat multiple enemies by only holding down left mouse button as his attacks autolock on enemies!! This makes him a very good comfort character for mobile players.
- He is intended to be a DPS role unit, and hence provides the most value when played in that role.
- If you add another hydro unit in your team besides Ayato, You get "Hydro Resonance" - which increases all party member's max HP by 20%.
- He requires ATK%(with Hp% substats) to utilise his kit to the fullest. So try to balance these stats while managing Crit rate/Damage, when farming for artifacts.
- Artifact Priority : Sands - ATK% | Goblet - Hydro Dmg Bonus | Circlet - Crit Rate/Dmg
- Playstyle : Q > E > *NA > Repeat | *hold down left mouse button, attacks autolock on enemies
✦✦Ascencion Meterials✦✦
- 1 x Lazurite Silver | 9 x Lazurite Fragments and Chunks | 6 x Lazurite Gemstones
- 46 x Dew of Repudiation [obtained from Hydro Hypostasis]
- 165 x Sakura Bloom(s)
- 18 x Old Handguard | 30 x Kageuchi Handguard | 36 x Famed Handguard
✦✦Artifacts✦✦
- Heart of Deapth : Bis Artifact set in all scenarios. Use this if you want consistent "Shunsuiken slash" damage. Makes Hypercarry playstyle very rewarding. same with Gladiator's Finale, but this set gives +18 attack instead of hydro dmg bonus.
- Nymph's Dream : Great set that increases hydro dmg and atk in longer battles, however farming HOD domain is more valuable in the long run.
- Echoes of an Offering : Good set overall, but be adviced as its passive becomes inconsistent with higher ping. (The additional 70% normal attack dmg is easier to achieve at 90ms or lesser ping) so keep this in mind when farming for this set.
- Mare Hunter : A good set but is outperformed by HOD. however if Furina is in the team, it makes Mare Hunter a potentially stronger option as the constant HP drain from Furina's E skill makes its very easy to build Ayato. Priortise ATK% on Goblet if you are going for this set and team comp[as you get 75% dmg bonus from furina's fanfare anyway]
✦✦Weapons✦✦
- Heran Geppaku Futsu : His Bis Weapon. grants massive normal attack damage boost!
- Mistplitter Reforged : Ayaka's BiS weapon, however if you can cast your Burst every rotation(this allows the weapon to accumulate 3 stacks) this weapon can outperform the Heran in some senerios. Try to get some ER in artifacts when farming.
- Jade Cutter : A great weapon that gives 33% crit rate and increases HP by 20%.
- Black Sword : It is availible in the battle pass and gets stronger with refinements, it is a solid option for Ayato as it increses crit rate and grants a decent normal attack boost!!
- Amenoma Kageuchi(r5) : Inazuma Craftable weapon, its high atk% substat makes it valuable and its passive refunds some energy after casting Burst. a great option for F2p(s).
- Finale of The Deep(r1-r5) : A great option for Ayato in Furina teams, it applies Bond of Life that when cleared by using a healer grants ALOT of attack. Normally you would use a teamwide healer to obtain fanfare stacks in a furina team, resulting ayato to be buffed with the weapon's full passive, as well as furina's burst. at Refinement rank 5, its damage outperforms the Mistplitter reforged.
✦✦Team Comps✦✦
Classic Ayato Hypercarry : Yunjin can be swapped with Kokomi or any Pyro flex.
Mono Hydro : This team excels in single target senarios. Like Millenial Seahorse.
Ayato Hypercarry - Furina Variation : Use Finale of The Deep on ayato here. Yelan is Flex
Kuki-Ayato Hyperbloom : Kuki E > Ayato E > NA. Very strong team!! Collei flex
Disclaimer : these are marely examples, a logical team can only be determined by the support's builds, artifacts, weapons, and team rotation stratagy. play around with multiple team and see what fits you the most!!!
