like this video if u returned in one piece pulled ayato and played him on stream to showcase some stuff: www.twitch.tv/braxophone twitter.com/braxophone Additional info: His burst snapshots If you want to try Hyper Ayato, you run him with Yun Jin, Kazuha, and Bennett, but it's not really as worth as running most other hyper teams and it costs a lot of expensive units so I'm not a fan personally.
@@zzz-1 Hello! I don't actually have a set team for Kaeya, but tend to switch around depending on what I'm doing. It's usually Kaeya + Xingqiu, a cryo unit for the crit (usually Diona since I haven't built Rosaria yet) and a flex (currently bennett since he's just good and needs the friendship). I'll be slotting Ayato in where Xingqiu is now for the normal attack bonus he gives. I have Kaeya built as a physical dps though so it could be different depending on who you have and what you built him as!
@@HPFireYT I think diona might actually be better than rosaria unless you run something like jean or bennett, cus healing/shield is still important no matter what
same! i got him early too! i got him on one 10 pull at 12 pity! i was so happy because i was broke on primos after i lost at the weapon banner, getting kokomi's donut instead of raiden's spear lol
He will be great for Co-op and multiplayer play. Things not often talked about are the differences between how you optimally go into co-op vs playing single player. In normal play Childe will out perform Ayato, however, in a co-op or multiplayer scenario Ayato would be significantly better. I can only hope that Mihoyo gives us wonderful multiplayer content soon. Once i get Kazuha and Ayaya i'm going to feel fairly burnt out on the game with nothing to use my characters for. Thanks for your review and all that you do.
This. As someone who does domains exclusively in co op even if I don’t have or play any characters who need friendship just bc it’s more fun, he’s pretty good there. I just hope they revamp co op a bit in the future cause there’s so much that can be done but it’s not tapping into it’s full potential.
I got Ayato and I love his game style. Thank you for the video because you showed the team I wanted to play with him Ayaka, Ganyu and Kazuha. I will put him with other teams that you said would work. It going to be fun trying to get 36 star in the Abyss. I am going for his new artifacts set and I don't mind because I am also getting the other set for Xiao.
Got him on release twice in same pull and have given up on him, I can't get him to make decent damage compared to the rest of my teams no matter how hard I try. :(
I screamed when you said your favorite team comp was Ayaka, Ayato, Venti and Diona haha, that's the team im planning to use him on!!! Just got Venti and Ayato today, and I really want to pair them both with my Kamisato Queen :') Amazing video!
He looks fun. He'll go into the "I'll pull someday" group with Ganyu. That day is not today though. I figured I'd wait to see some reviews/gameplay but I'm going to go for Ayaka and then Kazuha instead.
This was the most thorough character build guide I've ever seen, I love how a lot of alternative options are included, or "if you don't have these artifacts, this is a good temporary solution!". Love this, super helpful. Also now I know to switch out my sac sword for the f2p craftable one that looks better on him anyway 😍 (I usually go for aesthetic over meta when it comes to weapons, so I'm happy this works out. Plus I unfortunately don't have a 5 star sword to give him, but maybe someday). I want my Ayato to be my new main DPS because I have had DPS Diluc for about a year now, and he's strong and I love playing him and all, but whew boy it is really time to switch it up, it was a bit annoying feeling stuck with him since he's my strongest. I like how to me, Ayato has a similar feel to play as playing Diluc. Well, his Burst takes way longer to charge, but the feeling of having a DPS elemental application skill active every 6 seconds is so satisfying. Makes me feel strong even when my Ayato isn't built much yet. Anyway thanks again for the guide. Really helpful. Now I can replace out both my Diluc *and* Barbara cause I like Freeze teams (even if I usually end up taking the easy way out and spamming Diluc most of the time) so Ayato will give me wiggle room to switch out my maxed Barbara too so my other healers have a chance to shine. Personally I need a healer on every team, even if a battle is easy it bothers me when health isn't constsntly restored to full. So Ayato perfect replacement for both Diluc and Barbara, for my weird specific method of choosing teams. Also I somewhat recently got Zhongli and holy heck he also has a perma-spot on my team for shielding. I love to go: 1: main DPS, 2: sub dps/support/shield, 3: HEALER, 4: support/free space for whoever I'm in the mood for be it my strong af burst Xiao or goofing around with a decent build Yanfei.
Thanks for the great video 👍🏻 Ayato literally fits everywhere, strong at C0, a very F2P friendly indeed. I’m glad that Hoyoverse are paying attention to this point to balance out their 5* release.
Great guide thank you. He looks fun and a very flexible unit which is nice compared with the more niche ones we’ve been getting. Looking forward to trying him with lots of teams just for fun, but mostly want to try him with raiden & yae
@@luiss428 Depends really. Childe still has his nuke. They seem pretty similar in terms of power in most cases. Though Childe is still better at hydro application.
@Yk On As a Childe main who happily pulled Ayato to be used in the other abyss team (and in the same team in overworld), I don't stand by these accusations :p
@Yk On tbh the comparison is inevitable. they're both hydro infused "melee" type dps. considering the role of hydro currently, people would want to see if ayato can either vaporize or enable (or both, or even hypercarry). the only other unit who can dish out good auto atk dmg while applying hydro is childe. ayatos burst enables the team a lot. ayato is very versatile (carry or off field), and has a lot of options for builds. childes dmg quickly increases the more enemies are around, but ayato has consistent dmg through out. i also have no complaints with his skill. it reaches ventis burst, and the tracking and shifting forward movement is sooo comfortable! (but if accounting for his burst, it does have quadratic scaling!) also, im the one who commented on his 6s cooldown LMAO. is there something wrong with pointing that out? I definitely feel like a burst you can have active almost all the time plus a skill that is strong and has a short cooldown makes a character really fun and comfortable to play, right?
really wanting to try him out on a Radien national team where they are tag teaming the damage output and triggering so many reactions that Ayato's 80 cost is nbd
Play ayato beidou Raiden kazuha/xq but XQ is useless here So I play with Bennet for buff and healing U use Raiden E beidou Ult. swap to ayato and use E, when it finishes use his Ult then go to Raiden and use her Ult ( the time ur E recharges on ayato will make beidou Ult disappear so don't wait, just Ult then swap to Raiden) All that after Bennet Ult and see the DMG by yourself
3:18 actually it depends, usually you'd be using Ayato's Q first as it's actually a Q with The longest duration in the game, you can after that just swap out, do his rotation and swap in with his Q still active, so basically a reliable passive damage. After that you can just do Ayato's E rotation normally.
That's always how I decide who to get and level. If they don't feel fun to play in some way, I know I won't use them. The moment I understood how he skill worked and tried it, I was like "Yeah!". XD He's already 70 on my account. Only the fact that I hate gathering items is holding him back, lol. The fact that I got off my butt and farmed some asap makes it clear how eager I am to have him available for content. :)
I accidently got him and honestly I had no idea what to do with him. I won my 50/50 and got Venti (the one I was actually saving for), 10 pulls later I got Keqing and then with a pity of 6 I got Ayato and God am I poor but hey now I know who and what to farm for Thanks for the video! It's extremely helpful :D
What's the primary thing I like about Ayato? *His satisfying katana slashes & elegant water drops from his burst* And I got him on a 50/50 win. Not regretting pulling for him. *This is gonna be epic!*
Thank you for the video. I missed Ayaka the first time around, and I had planned to pull both twins and ended up getting Ayato pretty quickly. I've been to involved in Elden Ring to keep up with this game or new developments very well so I appreciate the video where I can just get a quick summary of everything I should slap on him. Especially since it validates that Primordial I pulled.
Can’t say he’s a must have for me. But I’m gonna throw him a 50/50. Just cause he looks fun to play. If I get him great, if I don’t no big loss. Mainly though I just really want more Yun Jin constellations. Lol.
I thought my nearly fully built Kaeya was doing a lot of damage, but then I got Ayato and had to raise my world level by 2 and ascend because he is obliterating everything in his path lmao I adore how he plays and he'll probably be my first fully crowned character.
After getting Ayato I tried abyss Again and Still full star it. 1: Raiden, Beidou, Ayato and Xingqiu 2: Zhongli, Ningguang, Bennett and Xiangling I love his Swap rotation with Raiden.
I think I’m pulling for Ayato solely for that Yoimiya teamcomp as I like Yoimiya very much, and Ayato can give a new playstyle to my Yoimiya team. Hoping for Yoimiya rerun next patch to get TP for her 🤩
I saw a quick test on iwintolose's channel earlier. From that video, it seems not bad, totally viable, just not optimal, especially since it takes up both bennett & kazuha/sucrose.
i feel like his massive range hydro ult makes him worth the summon if you have ayaka, will get her, or have ganyu. just allows massive area control, paired with venti and all of a sudden you’re cutting a large group of enemies to bits and pieces. even if he himself doesn’t do a massive amount of damage in one attack like a lot of the crazy meta characters, he does it over 15 attacks over like 6 seconds with upwards of 30k per slash, with a good team he’s a good sub dps where you throw in his skill after some elemental application, and continue with your rotation of skills and ults. i definitely don’t think he’s nearly as bad as ppl make him out to be. he’s not super meta like ganyu but he is another ganyu buff. he does good damage as well as being able to attack a small group bc of his wide slashes, and his ult gives him probably the best hydro application besides xingqui (he only works with normal attacks tho) i feel he’ll be another sleeper character that ppl wind up over looking but it comes out some time later that he’s really crazy. ppl also say he’s gonna be immediately power crept by yelan but all i really see with her is something new to the game being her skill, an explosive arrow and a xingqui ult? maybe i’m missing something but the highest numbers i’ve seen her do from the leaks is a 34k crit from her skill, which really isn’t anything crazy, but who knows what build the leaks had on her if any, maybe she will be crazy. sorry for the rambling, it’s very late and i had to defend my summons to no-one other than my brain after seeing mediocre dmg w him, him possibly being PC’d by yelan and slight regret bc of these things
I got him by accident, and he’s one of my most cracked characters, I love him so much cuz he’s so easy to play, and with my Ayato, Venti, Bennett and Zhongli he absolutely destroys enemies :D
I prefarmed everything, talent to lvl 10, had the black sword r5 90, I got Mona (huge win was super happy I've been waiting for her since day 1). I saw Yelan and I decided to skip him... Yesterday I pulled on the weapon banner and I got his sword! So I had to pull for him, he is an amazing character so fun to play with Katsura! Thank you for the guide, you explained everything, the edition and transitions are so smooth
In short: Weapon: His signature weapon or jade cutter are BiS, with mistsplitter being close second. Artifact: 4pc heart of depth is best with a number of other good alternatives. Stats: General DPS build. Don’t focus HP as the scaling isn’t good enough for that but it’s not bad to have on your substats if its there. Comps: National teams with Beidou + Venti (his E slashes do reach high enough) or Freeze teams with Ayaka preferred.
Got double 5* for the first time pulling for Ayato plus winning 50/50 twice so i got c1 Ayato with Haran now, i wanna make the best out of him 🥰🥰 still trying to find his perfect team
He's my first 5* which i got from the recent banner, and I never regret pulling for him. now he became my lucky charm since I got an early(45 pity) and won my 50/50 in the shogan banner. now she's my second 5*
The only other character that gave me the same kind of bonking satisfaction is my C0 Itto. My C2 Raiden comes close (just annoying that she requires so much setup and if you don't get enough hits in if enemies die or dash away, you don't get her ult back. Same with Itto, Ayato is a pretty complete characters at C0. His constellations are truly optional. The best thing about him is that he has soooooo many team comp options, as he is Hydro, and has both off-field and on-field capabilities, and only requires 6 seconds for on-field DPSing at a time.
Same, Itto and his aniki feels complete at C0 and very satisfy to play. I'm gonna spend the next patches before Sumeru experimenting with his team comps.
Pulled for him with 100 wishes, 0 pity (last wish in history was a C1 for Ganyu) and 50/50. But the 4*s were to good to pass on especially since I didn't have Sucrose. First 10-pull I got a Diluc out of nowhere :) He then took a full 90 to get but definately worth it.
I lost my 50/50 to jean and now I have decided to save till he has a rerun. I am watching all these kind of videos to build him when (AND IF) he gets a rerun... He will be so godly with Kaeya on the team and as a Kaeya main I need Ayato to help Kaeya reach his full potential.
The new set is too good, a lot of youtuber rate it low but it's actually insane, the fact that a 48/180 new set destroys my 55/253 Gladiator im surprised, around 10% damage increase even with stats being far below
i've put him in a team with kaeya, thoma and bennet! i'm gonna farm the new artifact set since i've been saving condensed resin for months exactly for this, and i'm gonna take advantage of the fact that i want to farm the new artifact set for xiao as well :D
thanks so much, i was searching for videos clarifying the difference between hod and echoes;;;; thank goodness i have a decent hod set right now, i was dreading having to refarm for echoes
The fact that I've only won Ganyu & Ayato to a 50/50 makes me think that all 5-stars had a burst similar to theirs- if only I didn't loose my 50/50 to Raiden..
I got him because husbando>>>meta, but I'm having a lot of fun playing him and I'm happier after seeing your video and learning that he can be built into a good teammate for my current characters. Thank you
I haven’t unlocked inazuma but a friend of mine let me farm her world and now my Ayato is lvl 60.. At least I now know how to build him from here. I have a Lion’s Roar sword and a four piece 5⭐️ gladiator set ready. Thanks dude much appreciated
I didn't have any good 5 star character (only had Kokomi and the Traveler), so I was using Kaeya, Xiangling, Xinyan, Diona. They were pretty good, but hooo man when I pulled Ayato, he changed my whole game. I started running Ayato, Xiangling, Bennet, Diona and they were smashing through everything. Also pulled for Venti a lil bit later, and he makes most fights trivial. Ayato is also very fun to play ngl. He kinda gives me a samurai Jack vibe, and that used to be my favourite cartoon when I was a wee lil lad.
I got him and his weapon!! Seriously the most luck I've ever had, yes I had to be the whale to get more wishes, but it was totally worth it 💖✨ He's just perfect for my team and SO PRETTY and HE DRINKS BOBA LIKE CMON 😂
Not the best but my team currently for my Ayato is Ayato C0, Jean C5, Yunjin C6, Zhongli, C6. With geo resonance and yunjin support ontop of healing/grouping and more atk speed using jean is super fun.
Thank you for this really clear and newbie-friendly video! A lot of tutorials feel catered to skilled, experienced players (all the acronyms seem like they're speaking a new language lol). And your "Don't worry about XXX" is super reassuring haha too. New sub, just got my first Ayato so I'm so excited to try this. Only thing that worries me juuust a bit is not having any 5 star artifacts/weapons lol... my WL is 2 or 3 (I forget) 🫠 anyway thank you for this video !!!
In my opinion 7/10 because xiangling will probably have energy problems so bennett/ kazuha or fischl will be much more optimal yunjin also have that er problems and from what I know zhongli isn't great at generating particles(correct me if Im wrong cuz I dont hav him) well unless if ur yunjin has godlike er artifacts
@@abanana8313 8/10, well it wil boost ayato atk spd but the damage is not the best. Yunjin and Fischl is good but for chongyun it doesn't synergize well If you're going for freeze comp I would rather choose rosaria or kaeya If ur not going freeze then In my opinion you should swap chonghyun into a healer (bennett to be exact but only if he is still available ) or any anemo that spread elements and cc enemies well like Venti,Kazuha,Sucrose (Just Sharing) I'm actually running ayato hyper carry team (Ayato,Yunjin,Benettt,Kazuha) It works for me because my Yun Jin has good artifacts and she is c6 my benett and kazuha also has good arti and doesnt suffer from ER so my rotation is really good and my ayato is equipped with skyward blade (sounds crazy but hear me out) In my opinion ayato burst should always be active because the +20% na buff is good to have (lvl10Talent) but he suffers from ER and that's where my skyward blade comes in and the weapon effect is also viable to ayato My rotation is Ayato E to apply hydro(1slash is enough) then swap to Kazu to E/Q > Benett E/W > Yunjin E/Q> Ayato Q/E > Kazuha E> Yunjin E> Bennett E> then all of their energy is full and ready for another rotation again except for Ayato his burst duration is long anyways but after 2nd rotation his burst will be ready again then the whole process repeats ( Notice that I alwys E whenever my supp appear cuz ayato still has 6secs downtime so we need to compensate that, I also save ayato burst in the final part so he will enjoy the buff of syward) I deal 30-35k per slash and since I have bit atk spd its very fast too and sometimes I even vaporize and deal 55-60k Note: AYATO - 64/160 CR/CD (4 HoD) Yunjin- C6 270% ER (Favonious Lance) Benett - C5 (crowned) Kazuha - C0 / R1 freedomSw /1k elem mast. I just shared how I ran my Ayato with the resources I have. Feel free what team you want to run as long you are having fun with it~ (edit: I mistype and put 40-45k per slash lol) (For ppl that is curious, im f2p and lucky, Ignore this if u don't care)
Not very optimal If u don't kill enemies in 1 rotation u get shit on after No one will have his burst bc energy probs Only ayato can get it easily but others will take so much time Use : Ayato Xiangling Anemo: kazuha the best but sucrose F2p Bennet So here u buff and heal with Bennet, hydro shred with anemo and sub DPS xiang ( i use her with favonuis polearm my DMG isn't high but I get her Ult easily when I finish a rotation it's already 80% ) and vaporize ayato I used this and dealt 45k with ayato clone when it explode and slashes hits only 12k without vaporize but 20k or something like that with vap
I pulled for him but he politely refused as he saw me struggling with the enemies, so he gave me a C4 Sucrose and a guaranteed Zhongli. Along with some cons for Yun Jin and Xiangling.
Got him early but no Yun Jin constellations :,) Was hoping to get at least C2 to help his damage even more but I already had a fairly cracked setup waiting for him so I'm coping rn.
thanks for the hard work. I pulled him as soon as I tried him out and confirmed his playstyle is something I can work with. I also can't believe how lucky I've been recently, he's my third won 50/50! I used to lose every single 50/50 so it's a big deal lol. I risked getting Raiden right before him, so I wasn't sure if I manage to bring him home, but I did! I'm not sure how I'm gonna utilise him yet, but I'll figure something out
I actually didn’t mean to get ayato… I got him at 28 pity, but I have been ignoring him since I have ganyu, although I now realize that I should probably build him if I want to do spiral abyss.

its beautiful. I pulled him specifically for raiden and yae team comp, plus ganyu

got jean at 20 pity, then got ayato at 30 pity NOW IT'S TIME TO BUILD HIM!
I got Jean too and I'm crying but I won't give up :'
@@sergioexpinosa8651 don't give up! try throughout the banner. i couldn't get the weapon, so I'll try my best too :(
3:18 actually it depends, usually you'd be using Ayato's Q first as it's actually a Q with The longest duration in the game, you can after that just swap out, do his rotation and swap in with his Q still active, so basically a reliable passive damage. After that you can just do Ayato's E rotation normally.
Nice guide! I got Ayato and Venti in less than 20 pulls. Now it’s over for those damn vishaps at floor 12 chamber 1 😈
Ganyu × Ayato x Venti is the real monster team for Ayato. Ganyu and Ayatos burst together almost have 100% uptime and Venti can battery them.
"the sibling who got the good genes" EXCUSE MEE D; my poor ayaka
Ayaka's still A LOT better than him lol
Ayaka is so pretty tho why he roastin her like that TvT
@@eligbnsu71 brax is a ganyu/yoimiya simp thats the reason.
@Eligbnsu Bc she got a big forehead
Her head blocks gameplay :c
My daughter stunned him up as - he feels fun to play.
So he’s always going to be a good addition.
That's always how I decide who to get and level. If they don't feel fun to play in some way, I know I won't use them. The moment I understood how he skill worked and tried it, I was like "Yeah!". XD He's already 70 on my account. Only the fact that I hate gathering items is holding him back, lol. The fact that I got off my butt and farmed some asap makes it clear how eager I am to have him available for content. :)
I accidently got him and honestly I had no idea what to do with him. I won my 50/50 and got Venti (the one I was actually saving for), 10 pulls later I got Keqing and then with a pity of 6 I got Ayato and God am I poor but hey now I know who and what to farm for
Thanks for the video! It's extremely helpful :D
Super stoked i was able to get him along with his sister. (Bp & blessing player) hes deff one of my fav chars. Good luck to everyone.
What's the primary thing I like about Ayato? *His satisfying katana slashes & elegant water drops from his burst*
And I got him on a 50/50 win. Not regretting pulling for him. *This is gonna be epic!*
Thank you for the video. I missed Ayaka the first time around, and I had planned to pull both twins and ended up getting Ayato pretty quickly. I've been to involved in Elden Ring to keep up with this game or new developments very well so I appreciate the video where I can just get a quick summary of everything I should slap on him. Especially since it validates that Primordial I pulled.
Can’t say he’s a must have for me. But I’m gonna throw him a 50/50. Just cause he looks fun to play. If I get him great, if I don’t no big loss. Mainly though I just really want more Yun Jin constellations. Lol.
did you get him? >.>
Hopefully you get him at least once
I got him this morning trying to get sucrose cons lol. Didn’t really care but he seems good
Literally same situation here
Pulled just for Sucrose and was able to raise her to c4, and got Ayato as a bonus lmao
yeah all the female dps are worth it for you, wonder why
I thought my nearly fully built Kaeya was doing a lot of damage, but then I got Ayato and had to raise my world level by 2 and ascend because he is obliterating everything in his path lmao
I adore how he plays and he'll probably be my first fully crowned character.
I got him and I'm happy to see he's good in Taser. Once I level up my Fishcl that'll be my go to comp with him.
After getting Ayato I tried abyss Again and Still full star it.
1: Raiden, Beidou, Ayato and Xingqiu
2: Zhongli, Ningguang, Bennett and Xiangling
I love his Swap rotation with Raiden.
i'm gonna try it but instead of xingqui i'm gonna go for Childe cuz he's FINALLY lvl90
Nice guide. I had a blast with Ayato in Spiral Abyss. I got 36 stars using a team with Ayato, Electro Traveler, Sucrose and Bennett.
I am going to use the same team. But I have beidu instead of electro traveller.
His ult hits depend on how big the enemy hit box is. The bigger the enemy, the more hits, Max 23 (azdaha)
I paired him with my raiden. No idea if it's strong enough but the reactions are just so fun when mix and matching the other 2 team members :)
i graduated from the school of kamisato ayato. thanks brax for this vid, was very helpful and neatly put together!
I think I’m pulling for Ayato solely for that Yoimiya teamcomp as I like Yoimiya very much, and Ayato can give a new playstyle to my Yoimiya team. Hoping for Yoimiya rerun next patch to get TP for her 🤩
Has anyone tested a "Hyper" Ayato team yet? something like a Yunjin, Benny, Anemo team
I saw a quick test on iwintolose's channel earlier. From that video, it seems not bad, totally viable, just not optimal, especially since it takes up both bennett & kazuha/sucrose.
Really good damage, but because yunjin and bennets CD are not in sync with Ayato it might cause problems
I believe Tectone did Ayato, Yujin, Benny, and Fischl. It was dope, Including Ayato C6 he damaged his enemy with 60K
I was thinking of that team when I got him
Hmm its problem is ER
i feel like his massive range hydro ult makes him worth the summon if you have ayaka, will get her, or have ganyu. just allows massive area control, paired with venti and all of a sudden you’re cutting a large group of enemies to bits and pieces. even if he himself doesn’t do a massive amount of damage in one attack like a lot of the crazy meta characters, he does it over 15 attacks over like 6 seconds with upwards of 30k per slash, with a good team he’s a good sub dps where you throw in his skill after some elemental application, and continue with your rotation of skills and ults.
i definitely don’t think he’s nearly as bad as ppl make him out to be. he’s not super meta like ganyu but he is another ganyu buff. he does good damage as well as being able to attack a small group bc of his wide slashes, and his ult gives him probably the best hydro application besides xingqui (he only works with normal attacks tho) i feel he’ll be another sleeper character that ppl wind up over looking but it comes out some time later that he’s really crazy. ppl also say he’s gonna be immediately power crept by yelan but all i really see with her is something new to the game being her skill, an explosive arrow and a xingqui ult? maybe i’m missing something but the highest numbers i’ve seen her do from the leaks is a 34k crit from her skill, which really isn’t anything crazy, but who knows what build the leaks had on her if any, maybe she will be crazy.
sorry for the rambling, it’s very late and i had to defend my summons to no-one other than my brain after seeing mediocre dmg w him, him possibly being PC’d by yelan and slight regret bc of these things
Brax! When did you start getting 100k views!? I'm so happy for you and how your channel is growing! 💛
I got him by accident, and he’s one of my most cracked characters, I love him so much cuz he’s so easy to play, and with my Ayato, Venti, Bennett and Zhongli he absolutely destroys enemies :D
I prefarmed everything, talent to lvl 10, had the black sword r5 90, I got Mona (huge win was super happy I've been waiting for her since day 1). I saw Yelan and I decided to skip him... Yesterday I pulled on the weapon banner and I got his sword! So I had to pull for him, he is an amazing character so fun to play with Katsura!
Thank you for the guide, you explained everything, the edition and transitions are so smooth
In short:
Weapon: His signature weapon or jade cutter are BiS, with mistsplitter being close second.
Artifact: 4pc heart of depth is best with a number of other good alternatives.
Stats: General DPS build. Don’t focus HP as the scaling isn’t good enough for that but it’s not bad to have on your substats if its there.
Comps: National teams with Beidou + Venti (his E slashes do reach high enough) or Freeze teams with Ayaka preferred.
Thanks . You helped me A LOT. I was in a bind as an f2p player. I had the flute for my Ayato at first. Gonna try out for the amenoma now.
very detailed guide brax, I'll wait your review of new artefacts esp echoes bcs you are my guider for yoimiya 👍🏿
Looking at my Ayato, he’s surprisingly well built, my only issue right now is resources
my favorite thing is to use albedo and ayato together its so satisfying
that ayaka forehead measure had me dying lmfao
My ayato feels more like a 4 star, but playing him with Raiden is so fun that I had to get him
11:20 Ayato and Ganyu's burst have the same AoE diameter and both keep everything permafrozen.
"Your supports need field time too, you maniac" made me crack up, I've been thinking that when people recommend the TF set
Brax doing and Ayato cosplay would be pretty fire..
Got double 5* for the first time pulling for Ayato plus winning 50/50 twice so i got c1 Ayato with Haran now, i wanna make the best out of him 🥰🥰 still trying to find his perfect team
Nice luck dudeeee
Shimenawa is a good set for him, The Flute is really good on him too
He's my first 5* which i got from the recent banner, and I never regret pulling for him. now he became my lucky charm since I got an early(45 pity) and won my 50/50 in the shogan banner. now she's my second 5*
literally everyone in the game: ayAto
UA-camrs: Ayato
💀💀💀
The only other character that gave me the same kind of bonking satisfaction is my C0 Itto. My C2 Raiden comes close (just annoying that she requires so much setup and if you don't get enough hits in if enemies die or dash away, you don't get her ult back.
Same with Itto, Ayato is a pretty complete characters at C0. His constellations are truly optional. The best thing about him is that he has soooooo many team comp options, as he is Hydro, and has both off-field and on-field capabilities, and only requires 6 seconds for on-field DPSing at a time.
Same, Itto and his aniki feels complete at C0 and very satisfy to play. I'm gonna spend the next patches before Sumeru experimenting with his team comps.
Pulled for him with 100 wishes, 0 pity (last wish in history was a C1 for Ganyu) and 50/50. But the 4*s were to good to pass on especially since I didn't have Sucrose. First 10-pull I got a Diluc out of nowhere :) He then took a full 90 to get but definately worth it.
I lost my 50/50 to jean and now I have decided to save till he has a rerun. I am watching all these kind of videos to build him when (AND IF) he gets a rerun... He will be so godly with Kaeya on the team and as a Kaeya main I need Ayato to help Kaeya reach his full potential.
The new set is too good, a lot of youtuber rate it low but it's actually insane, the fact that a 48/180 new set destroys my 55/253 Gladiator im surprised, around 10% damage increase even with stats being far below
Been playing him for a while now think he's best teams are with electro charge.
Ayato, Beido, Yae and Jean
I feel motivated playing this team
agree he works well with electro charge staggering enemies
Do you feel like a storm that is approaching
@@flambango9710 Yes, provoking the clouds of isolation
I’m so glad I won his 50/50 I’m currently running an all electro/ hydro team ( ayato, razor, Kokomi, and yae) and it’s so much fun.
brax the goat with another great video
I dont really care about dmg I'm just here to play with good looken character
Based
Bennet, XL, and Kazuha is pretty good too
his gameplay is sooooo fun wow.
i've put him in a team with kaeya, thoma and bennet! i'm gonna farm the new artifact set since i've been saving condensed resin for months exactly for this, and i'm gonna take advantage of the fact that i want to farm the new artifact set for xiao as well :D
I just got him c3 on 70 pull and holy hell he slaps hard.
I had 0 wish pity and my last wish I got xiao. Then today I wish one ten pull, I got ayato. Man my luck is really good
I keep seeing people saying that 4pc heart of depth isnt good on him but this video convinced me to give it a try :D
Who said that? HoD is one of his top 3 sets
thanks so much, i was searching for videos clarifying the difference between hod and echoes;;;; thank goodness i have a decent hod set right now, i was dreading having to refarm for echoes
Thank you very much, I really love your videos!
The fact that I've only won Ganyu & Ayato to a 50/50 makes me think that all 5-stars had a burst similar to theirs- if only I didn't loose my 50/50 to Raiden..
Pulled him double crowned him got decent artifacts for him he’s fun and makes for a different playstyle 10/10 would pull again
Just got him, I was so damn happy
I got him because husbando>>>meta, but I'm having a lot of fun playing him and I'm happier after seeing your video and learning that he can be built into a good teammate for my current characters. Thank you
I haven’t unlocked inazuma but a friend of mine let me farm her world and now my Ayato is lvl 60.. At least I now know how to build him from here. I have a Lion’s Roar sword and a four piece 5⭐️ gladiator set ready. Thanks dude much appreciated
I didn't have any good 5 star character (only had Kokomi and the Traveler), so I was using Kaeya, Xiangling, Xinyan, Diona.
They were pretty good, but hooo man when I pulled Ayato, he changed my whole game. I started running Ayato, Xiangling, Bennet, Diona and they were smashing through everything.
Also pulled for Venti a lil bit later, and he makes most fights trivial. Ayato is also very fun to play ngl. He kinda gives me a samurai Jack vibe, and that used to be my favourite cartoon when I was a wee lil lad.
I got him and his weapon!! Seriously the most luck I've ever had, yes I had to be the whale to get more wishes, but it was totally worth it 💖✨ He's just perfect for my team and SO PRETTY and HE DRINKS BOBA LIKE CMON 😂
I got him on my first pull
Needed someone to help klee out haha
His playstyle is fun too, very nice vid
I just got Ayato, but at the cost of losing 50-50 to Qiqi... I hope my Ayato won't disappoint me. 😁
Just got my Ayato in a single wishe right after Rosaria, very happy😁
Not the best but my team currently for my Ayato is Ayato C0, Jean C5, Yunjin C6, Zhongli, C6. With geo resonance and yunjin support ontop of healing/grouping and more atk speed using jean is super fun.
Got him on my birthday on my first ten pull! He was my first 5star character I wanted and got and never came of my team ever since ❤
Thank u for guide ill pair him with ganyu ayaka and sucrose .
Thank you for this really clear and newbie-friendly video! A lot of tutorials feel catered to skilled, experienced players (all the acronyms seem like they're speaking a new language lol). And your "Don't worry about XXX" is super reassuring haha too. New sub, just got my first Ayato so I'm so excited to try this. Only thing that worries me juuust a bit is not having any 5 star artifacts/weapons lol... my WL is 2 or 3 (I forget) 🫠 anyway thank you for this video !!!
Saving for Kazuha
I’m soo excited to start building my ayato I just got him yesterday and he’s so fun to play
Husbando ✅
Deals decent damage ✅
Hydro (perfect on my vape team) ✅
Time to open my wallet after the maintenance ✅😆
He isn't good on vape teams like Hutao, Yoimiya etc. cuz his burst doesn't apply hydro fast enough.
He has big ICD issues so not the best on vape teams sadly
Still works with Xiangling ✅
Can you rate how good this team is in the abyss:
Ayato- DPS
Xiangling- sub DPS
Zhongli- support
Yunjin- support
In my opinion 7/10
because xiangling will probably have energy problems so bennett/ kazuha or fischl will be much more optimal
yunjin also have that er problems and from what I know zhongli isn't great at generating particles(correct me if Im wrong cuz I dont hav him)
well unless if ur yunjin has godlike er artifacts
Yea big energy issues.
@@oiishiii2590 is this team also good ayato chongyun yunjin fischl
@@abanana8313 8/10, well it wil boost ayato atk spd but the damage is not the best. Yunjin and Fischl is good but for chongyun
it doesn't synergize well
If you're going for freeze comp I would rather choose rosaria or kaeya
If ur not going freeze then In my opinion you should swap chonghyun into a healer (bennett to be exact but only if he is still available ) or any anemo that spread elements and cc enemies well like Venti,Kazuha,Sucrose
(Just Sharing)
I'm actually running ayato hyper carry team
(Ayato,Yunjin,Benettt,Kazuha)
It works for me because my Yun Jin has good artifacts and she is c6
my benett and kazuha also has good arti and doesnt suffer from ER so my rotation is really good
and my ayato is equipped with skyward blade (sounds crazy but hear me out)
In my opinion ayato burst should always be active because the +20% na buff is good to have (lvl10Talent) but he suffers from ER and that's where my skyward blade comes in and the weapon effect is also viable to ayato
My rotation is
Ayato E to apply hydro(1slash is enough) then swap to Kazu to E/Q > Benett E/W > Yunjin E/Q> Ayato Q/E > Kazuha E> Yunjin E> Bennett E> then all of their energy is full and ready for another rotation again except for Ayato his burst duration is long anyways but after 2nd rotation his burst will be ready again then the whole process repeats
( Notice that I alwys E whenever my supp appear cuz ayato still has 6secs downtime so we need to compensate that, I also save ayato burst in the final part so he will enjoy the buff of syward)
I deal 30-35k per slash and since I have bit atk spd its very fast too and sometimes I even vaporize and deal 55-60k
Note:
AYATO - 64/160 CR/CD (4 HoD)
Yunjin- C6 270% ER (Favonious Lance)
Benett - C5 (crowned)
Kazuha - C0 / R1 freedomSw /1k elem mast.
I just shared how I ran my Ayato with the resources I have. Feel free what team you want to run as long you are having fun with it~
(edit: I mistype and put 40-45k per slash lol)
(For ppl that is curious, im f2p and lucky, Ignore this if u don't care)
Not very optimal
If u don't kill enemies in 1 rotation u get shit on after
No one will have his burst bc energy probs
Only ayato can get it easily but others will take so much time
Use :
Ayato
Xiangling
Anemo: kazuha the best but sucrose F2p
Bennet
So here u buff and heal with Bennet, hydro shred with anemo and sub DPS xiang ( i use her with favonuis polearm my DMG isn't high but I get her Ult easily when I finish a rotation it's already 80% ) and vaporize ayato
I used this and dealt 45k with ayato clone when it explode and slashes hits only 12k without vaporize but 20k or something like that with vap
Here for the yoimiya combo. Not disappointed 😂
I got him on my first 10 pull!
Me too! Literally couldn’t believe my eyes because I was at very low pity, so it was pure luck for me 🥲
I did as well
i got him c1 in a single 10 pull. so happy
I pulled for him but he politely refused as he saw me struggling with the enemies, so he gave me a C4 Sucrose and a guaranteed Zhongli. Along with some cons for Yun Jin and Xiangling.
You did not bust out idubbbz to measure Ayaka’s forehead at the start lmao
Got him early but no Yun Jin constellations :,) Was hoping to get at least C2 to help his damage even more but I already had a fairly cracked setup waiting for him so I'm coping rn.
thanks for the hard work. I pulled him as soon as I tried him out and confirmed his playstyle is something I can work with. I also can't believe how lucky I've been recently, he's my third won 50/50! I used to lose every single 50/50 so it's a big deal lol. I risked getting Raiden right before him, so I wasn't sure if I manage to bring him home, but I did! I'm not sure how I'm gonna utilise him yet, but I'll figure something out
Him and beidou make for an insane duo
i got him at C1 today bc i had wishes to spare since i got him early at 28 pity & i rly dont have anyone i want in the future… IM SUPER HAPPY 🥰
He’s just so pretty 😭 I’m trying to build him and I just love him so much
I actually didn’t mean to get ayato… I got him at 28 pity, but I have been ignoring him since I have ganyu, although I now realize that I should probably build him if I want to do spiral abyss.
ngl I wasn't feeling him at first but that judgement cut had me sold
Ayato is currently on my tazer team with Raiden and Yae with Diona as my support. Once I get the CR up for Yae, my team would be unstoppable
