We can also help you choose the best characters with our Genshin Impact tier list, and we’ve got a whole heap of freemos up for grabs with our Genshin Impact codes.

So, without further ado, here’s everything in our Genshin Impact Ayaka build guide.

What is the best Genshin Impact Ayaka build?

Heralded as one of the best DPS characters in Genshin Impact, Ayaka is a powerful cryo sword wielder capable of taking down just about any enemy that gets in her path.

Her simple playstyle and amazing burst potential make her a powerful unit for any player looking for that extra oomph in battle.  She has respectable energy generation, great cryo application, and she doesn’t rely on any specific units in order to shine – meaning her team comps are pretty flexible.

If you’re not a fan of alternate sprint animations, you may struggle to get used to her – but her ability to apply cryo after sprinting makes for very little downtime in her cryo application, which can be a truly forgiving asset during cooldowns or if your rotations go awry.

Her front-loaded damage also makes her a great option in quickswap teams, as you can whip her out and nuke the enemies with a massive, icy blast, then switch to someone else to make the most of the tasty elemental reactions she set up.

Basically, Ayaka is best girl, and most players will get some great use out of her. Plus, she’s really cute – come on, didn’t you see her little fan dance?

What are the best Genshin Impact Ayaka weapons?

The best weapon for Ayaka is her signature sword, Mistsplitter Reforged, as it’s tailored to her kit and she can make full use of its passive. But, if you don’t have the wishes to splash on a limited five-star banner, don’t fret – surprisingly, the craftable weapon Amenoma Kageuchi is an amazing option too, especially at R5, as it cuts down her energy recharge requirements by roughly 40%.

For a more in-depth look at how each of the different swords size up, check out the weapon choices section of the KeqingMains Ayaka guide.

Weapon Effect How to obtain
Mistsplitter Reforged Base stat: crit damage
Skill: the wielder gains a 12% elemental damage bonus for all elements and received the might of the Mistsplitter’s Emblem. At stack levels 1/2/3, Mistsplitter’s Emblem provides a 8/16/28% elemental damage bonus for the wielder’s elemental type. The character obtains one stack of Mistplitter’s Emblem under the following conditions:

  • their normal attack deals elemental damage (stack lasts five seconds)
  • after they use their elemental burst (stack lasts ten seconds)
  • when their energy is less than 100% (stack disappears when their energy is full)
    Each stack’s duration is counted independently.
Gacha
Amenoma Kageuchi Base stat: attack
Skill: after the wielder uses an elemental skill, they gain one Succession Seed. This effect can trigger once every five seconds, and each seed lasts for 30 seconds. Up to three Succession Seeds may exist simultaneously. After the wielder uses their elemental burst, they consume all Succession Seeds. Then, after two seconds, the wielder regenerates six energy for each seed they consumed

What are the best Genshin Impact Ayaka artifacts?

Without a doubt, Blizzard Strayer is Ayaka’s best artifact set in most situations. It increases not only her cryo damage, but her crit rate when attacking frozen or cryo-affected characters, essentially boosting and complimenting the cryo resonance bonus. Even if she’s not on a freeze team, the benefits of this set are pretty hard to beat for our sweet gal.

Alternatively, you can mix two pieces of Blizzard Strayer with two pieces of an attack set, like Gladiator’s Finale or Noblesse Oblige, which does boost her overall attack by about 20%. However, it’s pretty tough to find pieces with sub-stats that outdo the benefit of a full set of Blizzard Strayer, whereas you find that additional 20% attack through sub-stats pretty easily.

For more info on the different artifact sets and how they work, be sure to check out our Genshin Impact artifacts guide.

Artifact set Effect How to obtain
Blizzard Strayer Two equipped: +15% cryo damage bonus
Four equipped: increases the equipping character’s crit rate by 20% when they attack an enemy affected by cryo. Their crit rate increases by an additional 20% if the enemy is frozen
Peak of Vindagnyr domain, Dragonspine
Gladiator’s Finale Two equipped: increases attack by 18%
Four equipped: increases normal attack by 35% if the wielder uses a sword, claymore, or polearm
Artifact strongboxes, world rewards, etc.

Artifact stat recommendations

If you’re looking for a truly accurate portrayal of what stats and sub-stats you should focus on, you should use the Genshin Optimizer tool. However, as a general rule, here are our recommendations.

Main stats

  • Sands: attack%
  • Goblet: cryo damage
  • Circlet: crit damage or attack%

Sub-stats

  • Energy recharge (aim for roughly 140% for team flexibility, 110% if you’re using Anemona Kaguechi)
  • Crit damage
  • Attack%
  • Crit rate

What are Genshin Impact Ayaka’s skills?

Here are all of Ayaka’s skills. Through her alternate sprint and front-loaded kit, she’s pretty flexible, and it’s quite easy to set up her skill and burst.

The main thing you need to master when it comes to Ayaka’s playstyle is lining up her elemental burst properly, as that is her main damage dealer. For the optimal outcome, you also need to grips with how to manage energy across your entire team so that you can get Ayaka’s burst up as quickly as possible, while still allowing her allies enough energy to buff her and set up elemental reactions beforehand.

Above all, you need to ensure that you buff her before she uses her burst – then, position yourself to make sure that her burst can hit as many enemies as possible before you let it rip. If you struggle with this, pairing her up with an anemo character that has grouping capabilities like Sucrose, Venti, or Kazuha is super handy – more on that in the team comp section later.

If you fancy diving a little deeper into meta and mechanics, take a look at Keqingmains’ tips on mastering Ayaka’s playstyle.

What are the best Genshin Impact Ayaka team comps?

Ayaka’s quick, fluid playstyle and high cryo application means that she can be a massive damage dealer in a wide variety of team comps. However, she excels best in freeze teams, where her talents can truly shine.

Freeze teams should generally see Ayaka teamed up with another cryo unit to take advantage of the cryo resonance buff. Of course, she also needs a hydro character to trigger those freeze reactions – preferably one that can apply hydro from off-field while Ayaka’s dishing out the on-field damage.

Ayaka freeze teams are also greatly complimented by an anemo character like Sucrose, Venti, or Kazuha. These breezy buds offer some great elemental resistance shred through their swirls, and can group enemies together to make it easier for Ayaka to hit them with her burst.

Alternatively, you can go for a ‘mono-cryo’ team comp, which offers great cryo particle generation and often sees a boost in single-target damage. Despite the name, Ayaka mono-cryo actually pairs up Ayaka with two other cryo units and one of those handy-dandy anemo enablers. Generally, Ayaka mono-cryo teams rely on you having Shenhe to boost Ayaka’s damage, but she’s not an absolute necessity.

So, here are some examples of Ayaka team comps. Feel free to experiment and try different line-ups based on your personal playstyle and preferences. Click on the character icons in the table below to open their individual build guides in a new tab.
