Synergy Of Cryo Support Kaeya Team

Character	Detail
Diluc	A powerful Pyro DPS. He benefits from the buffs provided by Tenacity of the Millelith, Noblesse Oblige, Thrilling Tales, & Freedom-Sworn.
Kazuha	He can shred the enemies' resistance with Viridescent Venerer x4 while providing decent crowd control, and an elemental damage bonus with his Burst.
Kokomi	An excellent healer who can consistently apply Hydro for Freeze & Vaporize. With Thrilling Tales & Tenacity artifact, she can also provide an ATK buff that can benefit both Diluc & Kaeya.

The objective of this team is to funnel all buffs to Diluc. Aside from ATK bonus, Kazuha's Freedom-Sworn can increase Diluc's normal & charged attacks when the effect has been triggered.

Pros & Cons Of Cryo Support Kaeya Team

Pros	- Diluc can deal heavy damage consistently - Cryo, Hydro, & Pyro works simultaneously
Cons	- Diluc needs to cast Burst before having Pyro infusion

Rotation Of Cryo Support Kaeya Team

No.	Procedure
1	Use Kaeya's Burst & Skill for Cryo application
2	Switch to Kazuha
3	Use Kazuha's Burst for Cryo-Swirl
4	Use Kazuha's Skill for crowd control
5	Switch to Kokomi
6	Use Kokomi's Skill for Hydro application
7	Switch to Diluc
8	Use Diluc's Skill once for enabling the set effect then Burst for Pyro DMG & infusion
9	Utilize Diluc's Skill followed by a series of Normal Attack ※ Optimal attack rotation: Skill → Burst → 2 Normal Attack → Skill → 2 Normal Attack → Skill → 3 Normal Attack
10	Repeat from step 1

Since Diluc's infusion does not disappear when switching to another character, you can occasionally switch to Kazuha for crowd control.

Substitute Characters

Character	Sub	Details
Diluc	Ayaka Klee Keqing Ayato	- Choose a DPS who can make the most out of Kaeya's Cryo application
Kazuha	Zhongli Mona Yae Miko Xiangling	- Use this slot for either a support buffer or off-field DPS who can utilize Kaeya's Cryo application & beneficial for the main DPS
Kokomi	Bennett Diona Jean Kuki Shinobu	- Include a healer who can utilize Kaeya's Cryo application & beneficial for the main DPS

Since Cryo does not react with Dendro, Kaeya is not recommended to be included in a team comp that involves Dendro.

Synergy Details

Synergy Of Physical DPS Kaeya Team

Character	Detail
Raiden Shogun	With her Skill, Kaeya & Mika can trigger Superconduct periodically which reduces the enemy's Physical RES that stacks with Zhongli's Physical RES debuff from the shield.
Zhongli	A great shielder who can decrease the enemies' Physical RES and provide ATK buff to the team with Tenacity of the Millelith x4.
Mika	Mika is great support for Physical DPS. Mika has buffs for boosting ATK SPD & Physical DMG Bonus which is beneficial for Kaeya. With Favonius Lance, Mika becomes a great battery for Kaeya.

The objective of this team is to funnel all buffs to Kaeya. The Physical RES of the enemy can be reduced with Superconduct & Zhongli's shield.

Physical RES Cap

The Physical RES debuff multipliers can stack and reduce an enemy's Physical RES to 0%. However, excess multipliers beyond 0% can still stack but would have a diminishing return.

Multipliers Work Differently

With the current characters that can reduce an enemy's Physical RES, reducing it beyond 0% is already possible but this works differently to Ruin enemies as this enemy type has a high Physical RES.

Pros & Cons Of Physical DPS Kaeya Team

Pros	- Kaeya can deal heavy Physical DMG consistently - Can reduce the enemy's Physical RES that can stack with other sources such as Mika's Skill, Superconduct, & Zhongli's shield
Cons	- Combat handicap when enemies are scattered - May have a hard time destroying shields - Cryo can slow down the attack rotation of Kaeya

Rotation Of Physical DPS Kaeya Team

No.	Procedure
1	Use Zhongli's Skill for shield
2	Switch to Raiden Shogun
3	Use Raiden Shoguns's Skill for a coordinated attack that can apply Electro for triggering Superconduct
4	Switch to Mika
5	Use Mika's Burst & Skill for buffs
6	Switch to Kaeya
7	Use Kaeya's Burst & Skill for Cryo application
8	Use Kaeya's Normal/Charged Attack until the buffs are gone
9	Return to step 1

From time to time, you can switch to Zhongli to refresh the shield's duration & Raiden for Electro application. You can also use Zhongli's Burst for crowd control.

When To Use Raiden's Burst

Use Raiden's Burst when Resolve stacks are full. For 7 seconds, Raiden's damage is greatly amplified and ATK SPD is improved. Raiden's Burst is also useful for removing the shield of Abyss Mages that is not immune to Electro.

Substitute Characters

Character	Sub	Details
Raiden Shogun	Yae Miko Fischl Lisa	- Always include an off-field Electro DPS with Kaeya for triggering Superconduct - Aside from Superconduct, Lisa can also decrease the enemy's DEF while inside the range of her Burst and this stacks with Physical RES debuff
Zhongli	Layla Xinyan Noelle Yanfei	- Layla is a good shielder who can increase the active character's NA / CA DMG at C4 - Xinyan is a decent shielder who can decrease the enemy's Physical RES at C4 - Noelle & Yanfei are also viable shielders but Yanfei's shield is locked at C4
Mika	Shenhe Diona Bennett Kuki Shinobu	- When a healer is optional, Shenhe can reduce the enemy's Physical RES - Diona is a great substitute for Mika since she has not only heal but also shield - Bennett can simultaneously heal & provide an ATK buff - Kuki is a good Electro applicator, especially with melee DPS

To consistently trigger Superconduct, it is logical to reserve one slot for an Electro character. Enabling Cryo resonance is also helpful for raising Kaeya's CRIT Rate.

Consider Bennett's Constellation

Bennett is only useful for Kaeya if he has a constellation below C6. When he is already at C6, he will infuse Kaeya with Pyro if she is inside the Burst AoE and this cancels out the Physical DMG. Bennett's C6 makes him incompatible with Kaeya.

Synergy Details

Synergy Of Hyperconduct Kaeya Team

Character	Detail
Kuki Shinobu	With her Skill, the enemies surrounding the active character are applied with Electro periodically and with Freedom-Sworn, Kaeya's Normal/Charged Attack gets an increased damage.
Nahida	The mark can be triggered with either Kuki Shinobu or Xingqiu. Since Xingqiu's barrier can apply Hydro faster than Kuki Shinobu's Electro, blooms are produced which then turn into Hyperblooms.
Xingqiu	He is a great off-field Hydro DPS, especially in close combat. With consistent Hydro application, bloom can be produced easily with Nahida's mark.

The objective of this team is to trigger Superconduct & Hyperbloom simultaneously.

Hyperbloom Completely Ignores Enemy DEF

Since the Hyperbloom can completely ignore the DEF of the enemy, only Kaeya can optimize the debuff done by Superconduct.

Nahida's Circlet Depends On Elemental Mastery

If you are able to reach 1,000 EM, you can opt for CRIT DMG instead of CRIT Rate since Nahida can gain a maximum of 24% CRIT Rate thru EM alone.

Pros & Cons Of Hyperconduct Kaeya Team

Pros	- Kaeya can deal higher damage due to Superconduct - Bloom can easily break shields - Kaeya is not the only one inflicting the damage - Xingqiu's barrier can reduce incoming damage & increase the resistance to interruption of the active character
Cons	- Kaeya is susceptible to interruption if not protected by Xingqiu's barrier or if the enemy is not frozen - Hyperbloom is less effective to opponents that are resistant or immune to Dendro

Rotation Of Hyperconduct Kaeya Team

No.	Procedure
1	Use Nahida's Skill to mark the enemies
2	Switch to Xingqiu
3	Use Xingqiu's Burst & Skill for Hydro application
4	Switch to Kuki Shinobu
5	Use Kuki Shinobu's Skill for Electro application & healing
6	Switch to Kaeya
7	Use Kaeya's Burst & Skill for Cryo application
8	Use Kaeya's Normal/Charged Attack until the buffs are gone

From time to time, switch to Kuki Shinobu for healing since she sacrifices a portion of her health whenever she uses her Skill.

Substitute Characters

Character	Sub	Details
Kuki Shinobu	Raiden Shogun Yae Miko Dori	- You cannot trigger Hyperbloom without Electro - If you already have a healer, you can opt for an off-field Electro DPS
Xingqiu	Yelan Mona Kokomi Barbara	- Reserve 1 slot for a Hydro support - If you need a Hydro applicator that can heal, opt for Kokomi or Barbara
Nahida	Collei Dendro Traveler Yaoyao Baizhu Kirara	- Always include a Dendro support for triggering bloom - If you do not have a healer yet, either Yaoyao or Baizhu can be used

To trigger Hyperbloom, you need to include Dendro, Hydro, & Electro in the team. With Kaeya as the main DPS, the mentioned elements must be a support/healer so they can synergize with Kaeya on the field.
