This build is centered around increasing the damage across all of Ayaka's attacks. This will allow her to be an on-field Cryo main DPS that can deal a good chunk of DMG even with just her Cryo normal attacks.

For this build, the focus is on increasing the damage for Ayaka's Burst. She can still act as an on-field DPS, but most of her damage will come her Burst instead of her Normal Attack. Also good for quick swap teams.

Crit Rate/Crit DMG Weapons Are Best

When it comes to Ayaka's weapons, it's recommended that you use high rarity weapons that have either a Crit Rate or Crit Damage sub-stat. The Mistsplitter is her BIS weapon, but the Primordial Jade Cutter is a good replacement for it.

Better To Not Build Energy Recharge In Weapon

Although this is a Burst DPS build, it's not recommended that you use a weapon with an Energy Recharge sub-stat. You can alleviate this with either a Cryo battery or ER artifact stats so it's best to leave your weapon for CR/CD or ATK%.

Amenoma Kageuchi Is A Good Weapon For This Build

Although the Amenoma Kageuchi is not a 5-Star weapon, it's one of the best weapons for this build because it will allow Ayaka to get her Burst up quickly without sacrificing her damage.

Noblesse Oblige 2-Piece Will Increase Her Burst Damage

For this build, your main focus is to increase the damage of Ayaka's Burst. This makes the 2-Piece Noblesse Oblige a good pick for her. You can either go for Blizzard Strayer 2-piece or a Gladiator's Finale 2-piece to compliment it.

Notes About Team Comps For Ayaka

Due to Ayaka's kit, she's limited to mostly being an on-field DPS. You can use her for quick swap, but she really shines the most as an on-field DPS due to her continuous Cryo application with her Normal Attacks.

Ayaka Skill Guide & How To Use Ayaka

Recommended Rotation For Ayaka

Recommended Rotation
1Use Elemental Skill to buff your normal attack and dash towards the enemy
2Attack until the Cryo infusion ends and dash once again after then continue attacking
*Use your Elemental Burst for finishing

Uses Of Ayaka's Elemental Skill

Cryo 1

Most Of Her Damage Comes From Skill + Attack

Ayaka already has an high damage scaling for her normal attack but this is further powered when her elemental skill hits. Maximize the damage of Ayaka by juggling between these two.

Applies Cryo To Multiple Enemies

Enemies within Ayaka's Skill will take Cryo damage if they are within their range. This is a quick and easy way to apply Cryo to a whole group of enemies.

Uses Of Ayaka's Elemental Burst

Continuous Cryo DMG Great For Frozen Enemies

Cryo 2

Ayaka's Elemental Burst summons a powerful wave of Icy Wind that will greatly damage enemies on its path. The wind slows down once it lands on the opponents enabling multiple damage tics and Cryo infliction.

Knocks Back Enemies

Ayaka's Burst works similar to Diluc's wherein it pushes back enemies. Take note of this when using her Burst since you may end up missing out on DMG trying to follow after knocked back enemies.

Ayaka Wish & Constellation Guide

Should You Get Or Wish For Ayaka?

Pull If You Need A Cryo DPS

Ayaka

Ayaka is a top-class DPS that deals powerful Cryo attacks. She can imbue her sword with Cryo whenever she uses her sprint. This allows her to have an almost 100% uptime for Cryo application. She has good scaling and can fit in most Cryo-reaction comps.

Constellation 4 For Highest DMG Increase

With constellation 4, when using Ayaka's elemental burst the opponent's defense will decrease to 30%, and giving more Cryo damage towards the enemies. This makes Ayaka's already powerful Elemental Burst more devastating.

2/2) So I removed all Blizzard strayer4pc from her and change it with Severed4pc. I give her 220 ER stat. And the result is pretty good. The burst dmg stay big, uptime is good, & can ACT as SubDPS.
But E & CA dropped

Monymousah 70

1/2) In this era with Neuvillette and Knave as the champion of mainDPS, my old Ayaka cannot finish floor 12 under 3 minutes even after using Xilo-Kazu-Furina. All because 80 burst energy cost.

Anonymous 69

Huh? How old is this Ayaka guide? I wanted to see is they added anything about Furina, Marechaussee Hunter or Finale of the Deep. Meanwhile there isn’t even a single mention about Shenhe, who is Ayaka’s best support

Anonymous 68

Thank goodness this place is free from the toxicity that is game8.

Anonymous 67

I think a new good team for ayaka is now ayaka furina Charlotte kazuha pretty decent team with lots of damage
