Note: In the C1 discussion, I wasn't able to verbally say that Normal attacks also proc the effect (mb i misspoke, not sure how I forgot to say it aloud too), but the video example clearly showed NA and CA triggering it and it says so right there in the description. Tell me how much you love Ayaka (keep it wholesome pls) I reacted to Ayaka's recent "story trailer" on my other channel! ua-cam.com/video/_ssPTCAafYE/v-deo.html Twitch: www.twitch.tv/Sevy_Plays
I wasn't gonna pull for her but my favorite character is Ayato ever since I got him - and I love the interactions between him and Thoma and Ayaka! So after I saw the trailer today which was so well made, I was really on the fence - then I played her trial so many times and her playstyle really grew on me. So I decided to bring her home to her brother!
Can you estimate how much er and crt I need for Ayaka in this comp? Main dps Ganyu (r2 Amos bow with Blizzard set), sub dps Ayaka (r5 Amenoma Kageuchi with Noblesse/Blizzard set), support Shenhe (r1 Calamity with 36% atk set), and support Kokomi (r5 TTDS with Tenacity set)? What I like about this team is that everyone can synchronize well with each others. Ganyu can boost 20% cryo with her burst to improve Ayaka’s burst. I’m not certain if Shenhe’s Calamity can double the attack buff gained from Kokomi’s TTDS to boost cryo dmg of overall team even further. Hoping I can win the 50/50 to obtain Ayaka tomorrow so I can build my dream team!
I didn't know Ayaka's burst snapshots. Then is it possible to get the buff from all three stacks of Mistsplitter's passive for her ult? It feels like she can get only 1 stack of the passive for buffing her ult.
The way Sevy explained Ayaka's kit makes me 101% convinced to pull for her. Thank you Sevy for explaining everything in concise manner. All the questions in my head were answered as well as the gray area lurking in my mind 🤩🥰
@@JoyousOblivion The dash is the reason I keep coming back to her a lot, lol. She's so fast and fun to use and I always get the best feeling ever when crossing large distances with her. With time and use you learn which surfaces could get her stuck and which don't as well.
I appreciate this guide so much Sevy! I was lucky enough to pull a Shenhe in January and so have been awaiting the Egg headed Princess for a while! Your guides have always been excellent and they only continue to escalate in quality, clarity and ease of use with each new release! The ultimate guide for both new and experienced players!
I like how Sevy explains it slowly but not too slow, because most of the viewers weren't probably using English as their first language. I like it because it's clear and easy to understand. Thank you so much for the video! Now I want Ayaya so badly ꒰⑅ᵕ༚ᵕ꒱˖♡
+Best element&resonance in the game +No need for cons and 5 star weapon +f2p friendly cope teams +Even though she's burst dps, has one of the best charged atk in the game I think Kamisato family had a favorite child
+Ayaka works well with ALL hydro support (Barbara, Xingqiu, Mona, Kokomi and maybe Yelan in the future) unlike the other one. Edit: I'm so sorry for the ambiguity, what I mean by "the other one" is Ganyu not Ayato. I just want to give more points for Ayaka lol.
@@forfuchsake2254 My Ayaka uses amenoma, no shenhe/mona/kokomi only diona and barbara with sucrose Meanwhile my Ayato with haran who benefits from c3 yunjin+c5 bennet+Venti+Elegy doesn't feel as strong as %50 of what Ayaka brings to the table Ayato is just slightly better than Childe in taser teams which is also better off with Kokomi
I almost never leave my Ayaka without Rosaria and Mona. That team works insanely well together that I don't even care that I would have to try to dash out of the way as either Ayaka and Mona and get hit for seemingly no good reason. It has served me a lot along with Ayaka's canon weapon being so good. Then again, it is mostly because I was lucky but the weapon does indeed help her out. It is good that she has other options, including a three star sword, making her easy to build and finally the fact that she is still great even at C0 is a blessing because, I gotta tell you, most of the time when top tier players say you NEED a five star character to get to insert constellation here just to make them good, is irritating because of RNG and most likely money. So the fact that Ayaka is fine at C0 is especially good for your wallet so she is fine as is lol. Overall, nice good and quick build video of Ice Bernadetta or Ice Raphtalia Sevy!
An extra tip about Shenhe, it’s good to use Shenhe’s tap E first, and go through your Anemo and other rotations after that, by the time Ayaka uses her burst, she uses up all of Shenhe’s stacks towards the latter half of the buffs duration, then Shenhe has her tap E up again before Ayaka’s burst ends, effectively getting 10 quills in a burst instead of 5
Recently started playing her after benching her since 2.0 since I lacked freeze comp units then. She's so f2p friendly. Im running dudu stats on her bit with Amenoma, blizzard strayer, and cryo resonance, she can burst almost every rotation. Such a comfy comp to play.
If you are still deciding whether or not to roll on ayaka after this video... just do it.. ayaka will 100% live up to your expectations and she might even be more useful to you than you expected
I’m still waiting for an alt to blackcliff sword for my ayaka, cause I realized that the amenoma is a bit weird, after i got it to r3 i was getting energy too fast, as i’d have my burst ready again before her burst came off cooldown, due to having a cryo battery, so i’m at a point where I feel more benefit from the damage of the blackcliff, as i already run a team with ttds, tom and noblesse, which helps the damage alot more due to higher base attack and giving more multiplication compared to amenoma, the mistsplitter would have been the answer but having WGS and Broken pines makes a pretty decent weapon, the unforged, undesirable, in addition to the fact that the 4 star pool isn’t that spectacular. I hope they one day make a perfect mistsplitter banner or a good 4 star weapon alternative for me.
I was also thinking about pulling on Mistsplitter for my Ayaka but when I saw the banner I noped on it. Blackcliff is fine compared to the horrors of ANOTHER unforged
sure you gotta get some er too but for a dps unit like ayaka there are only 4 useful stats either way, CR, CD, ER and ATK%, so you'd be looking to get ER either way, and since she has blizzard strayer and cryo resonance, you'd not need CR as much thus it only becomes ER, ATK% and CD, on amenoma you only really benefit from getting CD, since amenoma already gives ATK%, and the sands will give ATK% and has low base attack any further ATK% subs become diminishing returns, and any ER% becomes near meaningless, so you have to only get CD from the rolls. with blackcliff sword all of the 3 useful stats are still very very useful.
The best units to run with ayaka for cryo resonance are diona and rosaria who are cryo batteries. The only unit who could give cryo resonance that isn’t a cryo battery that has actually synergy is shenhe.
i find her best team to be Mona : damage boost + freeze Diona : sheild, heal, and amazing battery with sac bow Venti : CC, resist shred and battery when his burst swirl cryo (alot of ppl tend to forget how venti is a good batery too)
@@avian3548 4 piece VV is allways the best. the shred is huge dmg boost than 20% more on venti burst that do like 2000*20 per tick is only 20% on 40000 dmg is only like 8000 more. while VV shred -40% def could pump ayaka burst from 15k per tick = 300k to 20k per tick = 400k dmg. you do the math. you want 8000 dmg or 100000 dmg?
There’s enough champs in the game to be able to play whoever you want now over high-meta comps :) I always found Barbara boring to use but I’m sure she’s 100% viable and strong!
I think barbara weakness is that she doesn't help team with particle generation unlike xq with sacrificial sword can also function as a battery. Not to mention xq can provide more consistent hydro application than barbara off field
I've had Ganyu since Day 1 and I've had Ayaka since Day 1 I love both of them damage wise but Ayaka's gameplay is so much fun. For both abyss and explorations, I've used her a ton. My fav Ayaka team is Venti, Xinqiu, Ayaka and Diona
Last night I was pulling for Ayaka but got a copy of Keqing at 75 pity which, I must say, made me heart broken. Then I used my last 3 remaining Intertwined fates due to me being salty about getting C1 Keqing. I skipped the animations, and then boom, Ayaka showed herself at my 3rd pull. I felt like my heart stopped, then I screamed because of disbelief and excitement. Now I'm trying to raise her painstakingly, but GOD does she bring so much value already. From her play style to her design, it's just great! Now I'm watching this to bring out Ayaka's full potential. Thank youuu
Thank you so much! Love your guides, soft calming voice which doesn’t lack any technical details. Yes, still not recommended set in stone artifacts and show alternatives for low AR players. Or newer players with less options. Hope many guides will follow!!
Ayaka was that one character that made me shake and consider pulling when I was saving for Hutao (I got into genshin bcs of Hutao). Her story quest was very good! definitely one of my top favorites from all of the characters. I also like her design and personality, added by the fact that she's a Cryo DPS which I currently don't have. Thankfully, Hutao's rerun banner came sooner after the banner which made it easier for me to start saving up for Ayaka. My Ayaka build would be 2pc BS 2pcs Noblesse with the Haran sword and the team consists of Mona, Diona and Venti/Sucrose. Thank you for asking! Also, I really like the video. I'd say this guide series would be my go-to aside from Zyox's. Keep up the good work :D
thanks for the vid! my ayaka is CRACKED just at level 6 talents and with poopy artifacts. i thought maybe i fed her something weird but she’s just like that. thank you for explaining her kit fully so i could understand. if anyone is considering pulling for her PLEASE DO! SHE HITS LIKE A TRUCK LOL
i always love sevys guides! even though ive had ayaka since the day of her release, i still watched it entirely to see things i may have missed -- thanks for the awesome guides sevy!
I have a C0R1 Ayaka with Mistsplitter, she's 4 blizzard and her team is usually Diona XQ Sucrose with Sucrose running TTDS, but in this current abyss where shields are a detriment, I run her with Shenhe and Sucrose uses prototype Amber with ER set. The healing from XQ also helps
Barbara with Thrilling tale weapon and ayaka seems legit to me because i only use waifu over meta, lets hope i can win yelan next patch, thx you for the guide btw, i really need it right now
She is powerful!, my ayaka is 4PC blizzard strayer and mitspliter. she has 55 Crit Rate(but almost a hundred with the 40% crit from the set, and more than 100 crit with cryo teammate), and 230 crit damage and 150% ER I have found 150ER is a good spot because she does generate 5 particles. So with two E's, she is good. I put a lot of investment into her. If I want zero downtime on her burst, I run her with ganyu. but it's not back to back since there is like a 12mins cooldown after her whole burst finishes, but with rotation, its up. she definelty a great investment. i dont use her all the time but if i see a challenging abyss she and raiden are my OP units
I just got into the game right as Ayaka began her most recent (and most infamous) rerun. I couldn’t level her up for the longest time since her ascension materials are in Inazuma, and I was still in Mondstadt when I got her. But even though she was the lowest level character on my team, she was still the best I had. I had been hoping for Keqing. But after all the maniacal fun I’ve had freeze trapping enemies foolish enough to fight me in the rain or in a puddle, I don’t think I miss Keqing so much anymore. Still want her, and Zhongli and Hu Tao. But Ayaka will probably be my main for a long, long time.
Started playing during 2.0 even though I made my account back in 1.0. Missed her on her first run because I used most my beginner primos on standard(rip). But now during her 1st rerun, imma get her at all costs especially I’m a big fan of Hayami Saori, her JP VA
Omg i did the same thing with my beginner primos. I didn't know better and wanted to pull a keqing. I hope you get her. I'm gonna pull too but I'm guaranteed (30) pity with 25,000 primos. Good luck
I mainly use her alongside Shenhe, Rosaria & Kokomi. It's so fun to use (multiple dash skills) and all 3 cryo units can battery each other. This team indeed lacks Anemo VV shred, but it's more comfortable & easy to play.
There's not THAT much need for VV shred when you have shenhe on the team, honestly. Her ultimate already shreds resistance well, and gives a cryo bonus in its field, plus TTDS on kokomi works wonders for added damage!
My freeze team consists of Ayato (Black Sword, Echoes), Ayaka (Blackcliff, Blizzard), Venti (Windblume, VV), and Diona (Sacrificial, Noblesse). The team has shield, healing, freeze, res shred, crits, cc, and 2 dps carries. Rotation doesn't need to be strict and no need for 5-star weapons. All characters at level 80 with above-average artifact stats. Does well in Abyss.
I got Ayaka yesterday and I’m following this guide still doing decent damage for now but still building her rn I have always wanted her and I’m happy I got her
hey sevy! tysm for the build tips. for my ayaka build I use cold steel as a f2p option because at r5 it increases damage against opponents affected by cryo or hydro by 24%! i compared the damage and it was INSANE!
I'm really glad I watched this--Ayaka was my very first five star so I kinda had to just speed build her artifacts--and I was planning on re-farming for her very soon. I was pretty confused on how to deal with her permafreeze crit rate boost (I have xingqiu and diona for now, hoping for a Kazuha rerun soon, or a Mona pull) but this video was very useful in explaining how to deal with it. Also considering changing my sword from blackcliff to amenoma (but I'll have to experiment with that one), and potentially being more stamina-efficient. Thank you for the very simple and useful video! Very funny as well :D
well i usually use her in a freeze comp with diona(4pc noblesse), mona(4pc tenacity with ttds) and alternating with venti(for vv shred) or ganyu(cryo buffer and also for double dps comp), so basically the morgana comp. This comp is pretty strong no matter what the enemy is. Got me through the abyss multiple times.
In this rerun I was able to win Ayaka in 50/50 and also get the Mist splitter in the weapon banner I couldn't get more happier in life after that experience.
I was honestly hoping that I’d lose the 50/50, but I really do love her kit. I just really was waiting on yelan/yoimiya and wasn’t expecting to get both Mona and Ayaka in a pull lol
Sevy I've been subbed for a bit now and thought should tell you that your random bouts of savagery with your professional speaking pattern absolutely murder me 😆. "A simp endeavor"
That's exactly the way I use Ayaka! on 2.4 Spiral Abyss I used her in mono cryo comp along with Shenhe, Diona and Sucrose, Maguu Kenki didn't stand a chance; and on this current iteration I'm using Freeze Ayaka along with Mona, Shenhe and Venti (now that I finally got him Freeze team and Sucrose tazer at the same time are possible)
Grinding out quests and stuff to go for a last chance Sucrose on my 4* only account, a real struggle lol I enjoy her on my main account and still use her with a mono cryo team with Shenhe, Diona, Venti
been through the pain and suffering of farming blizzard strayed in the first month of its release put all the best on ganyu then ayaka come and said to ganyu : "OUR artifacts"
@@BlueCrystalAnimatez i avoid farming wanderer troupe intentionally and only take what i get from doing weekly bosses or farming ascension mats and yeah, what i have is still not quite as good (specifically, i'm lacking good crit damage head, atk timepiece and cryo goblet, so i had to use subpar artifacts on one of them, which brings my ganyu's overall damage down), so i still use perma freeze shotgun-yu doesn't really matter though since i use ganyu less and less nowaday.... aiming with controller is not so efficient compared to just spam ayaka's NA/CA
ive been seeing your videos recently and they’re great your guides are useful and informative also just simple and easy to understand ❤️‼️ wasnt planning to get ayaka but i wanted a cryo character and i might have enough for kazu
I just got her! I won the 50/50! T.T Planning to get Yelan, but I've been wanting a new character for some time now, and Ayaka looks like a really great unit ^^ Hopefully I willl not regret this haha thanks for the guide!
I was planning to buy Blackcliff long sword (which ive been saving starglitter for weeks) because I was losing hope at weapon banner, then I decided to do a 1 pull and proceeded to drink my coffee.. when I looked at my phone.. I freaking got MISTSPLITTER!!! now im gonna buy bennett con :v I want that C1
Since I've gotten Ayaka I have used her quite regularly and she's definitely my second fav cryo character after kaeya. I really want to build her properly as a cryo dps because her play style is just so fun. This video has so much useful info, some that I wasn't even aware of before. Hopefully I'll be able to put all this to use.
wow :D i used kaeya once and i just didnt like his elemental skill so i benched him right away :O also he kinda got that jack sparrow gay pirate vibe :x
@@darkgix6326 I mostly use kaeya as a burst support because it remains after switching characters and moves with them. Since I had to get up and personal with the enemies while using Razor it was pretty handy. I also like his "pirate aesthetic" as you say not to mention his colour scheme. Other cryo characters are also good but I just never quite liked them as much as Keaya and Ayaka. That's why all of my other cryo characters are benched and I haven't build them up as much.
Hopped on Genshin for the first time in about 2 or 3 weeks. Had saved 125 fates for Ayaka before. Pulled Diluc and Ayaka BACK TO BACK after 50 summons. Then right after I pulled Mistsplitter on my first summon on the weapon banner. Basically 3 five star things in 60 summons.
started playing 2 weeks ago already at AR 45 with every map unlocked and discovered, Ayaka as my main, never regretted pulling for her and manage to get my hands on the Mistsplitter as well
After hearing about how much Ayaka can do and how long the rerun would be around for, I decided to shake for vons and I got super lucky! I got her to C4 in about 300$, by comparison in the most unlucky scenario that wouldn't be enough for just one con starting from no pity
I still havent gotten any good artifacts with blizzard yet i still hit 10k, considering i gave her my hp emblem set and it’s not even that leveled up! She’s sooo good. 💖 hoping to get more luckier in the blizzard domain!!
Note: In the C1 discussion, I wasn't able to verbally say that Normal attacks also proc the effect (mb i misspoke, not sure how I forgot to say it aloud too), but the video example clearly showed NA and CA triggering it and it says so right there in the description.
Tell me how much you love Ayaka (keep it wholesome pls)
I reacted to Ayaka's recent "story trailer" on my other channel! ua-cam.com/video/_ssPTCAafYE/v-deo.html
Twitch: www.twitch.tv/Sevy_Plays
I love her a little less than ganyu 💙💙(that’s a LOT considering I really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really LOVE ganyu)

Can you estimate how much er and crt I need for Ayaka in this comp?
Main dps Ganyu (r2 Amos bow with Blizzard set), sub dps Ayaka (r5 Amenoma Kageuchi with Noblesse/Blizzard set), support Shenhe (r1 Calamity with 36% atk set), and support Kokomi (r5 TTDS with Tenacity set)?
What I like about this team is that everyone can synchronize well with each others. Ganyu can boost 20% cryo with her burst to improve Ayaka’s burst. I’m not certain if Shenhe’s Calamity can double the attack buff gained from Kokomi’s TTDS to boost cryo dmg of overall team even further.
Hoping I can win the 50/50 to obtain Ayaka tomorrow so I can build my dream team!
She's my waifu so i'm waiting for her to come home ever since we said goodbye 🫂
I didn't know Ayaka's burst snapshots. Then is it possible to get the buff from all three stacks of Mistsplitter's passive for her ult? It feels like she can get only 1 stack of the passive for buffing her ult.
Amenoma Kageuchi is definitely my favorite weapon for Ayaka.
It just looks so aestethically pleasing on her like it was made for her.
if only we can mod weapons, I'll definitely pick Amenoma
well of course genius it's her signature weapon

It's absolutely worth it and she doesn't really need constellations to be a top unit.
Ikkrr , everytime i wanna see a build , i search for her videos and always find all the info i needed ❤❤

ayaka,ayato,venti & diona~ already did 36 stars in day 1 after the spiral reset.
I am hyped for the next spiral rotation!
I’m still waiting for an alt to blackcliff sword for my ayaka, cause I realized that the amenoma is a bit weird, after i got it to r3 i was getting energy too fast, as i’d have my burst ready again before her burst came off cooldown, due to having a cryo battery, so i’m at a point where I feel more benefit from the damage of the blackcliff, as i already run a team with ttds, tom and noblesse, which helps the damage alot more due to higher base attack and giving more multiplication compared to amenoma, the mistsplitter would have been the answer but having WGS and Broken pines makes a pretty decent weapon, the unforged, undesirable, in addition to the fact that the 4 star pool isn’t that spectacular.

I love both of them damage wise but Ayaka's gameplay is so much fun. For both abyss and explorations, I've used her a ton.
My fav Ayaka team is Venti, Xinqiu, Ayaka and Diona
She finally came home yesterday at 75 hard pity (150 wishes total) and I couldn't be happier, her and Ganyu are great together
Thank you, this how guides to build characters should be like, everything was perfectly explained, we need more content like yours on UA-cam
i got ayaka the first day in her banner anx im trying to improve her rn and this helped sm!! tyy
omg first girlie i seen talking about genshin on here
Thanks for the awesome information! Your guides are always so easy to digest, I appreciate that. Can't wait to pull for Ayaka!
Last night I was pulling for Ayaka but got a copy of Keqing at 75 pity which, I must say, made me heart broken. Then I used my last 3 remaining Intertwined fates due to me being salty about getting C1 Keqing. I skipped the animations, and then boom, Ayaka showed herself at my 3rd pull. I felt like my heart stopped, then I screamed because of disbelief and excitement. Now I'm trying to raise her painstakingly, but GOD does she bring so much value already. From her play style to her design, it's just great! Now I'm watching this to bring out Ayaka's full potential. Thank youuu
Your breakdown was dope! Much easier to follow than some others I've seen. Thank you!
Thank you so much! Love your guides, soft calming voice which doesn’t lack any technical details. Yes, still not recommended set in stone artifacts and show alternatives for low AR players. Or newer players with less options. Hope many guides will follow!!
She works really well with C6 Barbara with Ocean Hued, and Furina C1!
I love her so much 🥺 been waiting for her since I tried her in Misty dungeon and I’m ready for her to join my account
Just pull Ayaka this morning and enjoying her quite a bit.Mainly run her in Freeze comp
Thank you Sevy for always giving us the best guides. 💖
Ayaka was that one character that made me shake and consider pulling when I was saving for Hutao (I got into genshin bcs of Hutao). Her story quest was very good! definitely one of my top favorites from all of the characters. I also like her design and personality, added by the fact that she's a Cryo DPS which I currently don't have. Thankfully, Hutao's rerun banner came sooner after the banner which made it easier for me to start saving up for Ayaka. My Ayaka build would be 2pc BS 2pcs Noblesse with the Haran sword and the team consists of Mona, Diona and Venti/Sucrose. Thank you for asking! Also, I really like the video. I'd say this guide series would be my go-to aside from Zyox's. Keep up the good work :D
Back because im for the first time whaling for a genshin character.
She's coming home
C6 is like "getting hit by a 100 ice cream truck at once" xD I love your commentary, great video as always!
thanks for the vid! my ayaka is CRACKED just at level 6 talents and with poopy artifacts. i thought maybe i fed her something weird but she’s just like that. thank you for explaining her kit fully so i could understand. if anyone is considering pulling for her PLEASE DO! SHE HITS LIKE A TRUCK LOL
i always love sevys guides! even though ive had ayaka since the day of her release, i still watched it entirely to see things i may have missed -- thanks for the awesome guides sevy!
I won a 50/50 for her and I have no idea how to use her, so this helps, thank you
I have a C0R1 Ayaka with Mistsplitter, she's 4 blizzard and her team is usually Diona XQ Sucrose with Sucrose running TTDS, but in this current abyss where shields are a detriment, I run her with Shenhe and Sucrose uses prototype Amber with ER set. The healing from XQ also helps
Thank you for all your guides! I just pulled Ayaka and can't wait to build her up alongside Shenhe, who I haven't had a use for so far.
Barbara with Thrilling tale weapon and ayaka seems legit to me because i only use waifu over meta, lets hope i can win yelan next patch, thx you for the guide btw, i really need it right now
She is powerful!, my ayaka is 4PC blizzard strayer and mitspliter. she has 55 Crit Rate(but almost a hundred with the 40% crit from the set, and more than 100 crit with cryo teammate), and 230 crit damage and 150% ER I have found 150ER is a good spot because she does generate 5 particles. So with two E's, she is good. I put a lot of investment into her. If I want zero downtime on her burst, I run her with ganyu. but it's not back to back since there is like a 12mins cooldown after her whole burst finishes, but with rotation, its up. she definelty a great investment. i dont use her all the time but if i see a challenging abyss she and raiden are my OP units
Just watched the vid and made ammendments on my ayaka and she's hitting like a TRUCK. Really appreciate it Sevy
I just got into the game right as Ayaka began her most recent (and most infamous) rerun. I couldn’t level her up for the longest time since her ascension materials are in Inazuma, and I was still in Mondstadt when I got her. But even though she was the lowest level character on my team, she was still the best I had. I had been hoping for Keqing. But after all the maniacal fun I’ve had freeze trapping enemies foolish enough to fight me in the rain or in a puddle, I don’t think I miss Keqing so much anymore. Still want her, and Zhongli and Hu Tao. But Ayaka will probably be my main for a long, long time.
Started playing during 2.0 even though I made my account back in 1.0. Missed her on her first run because I used most my beginner primos on standard(rip). But now during her 1st rerun, imma get her at all costs especially I’m a big fan of Hayami Saori, her JP VA
Omg i did the same thing with my beginner primos. I didn't know better and wanted to pull a keqing. I hope you get her. I'm gonna pull too but I'm guaranteed (30) pity with 25,000 primos. Good luck
@@toast7969 50 pity guaranteed here with 21k primos. Hopefully we get her early
@@skullzyy22 😊 crossing my fingers. Early bird pull would be best!
I remember, I joined your channel during original Ayaka release, you made a nice pre-release video then on Ayaka
I mainly use her alongside Shenhe, Rosaria & Kokomi. It's so fun to use (multiple dash skills) and all 3 cryo units can battery each other.
This team indeed lacks Anemo VV shred, but it's more comfortable & easy to play.
There's not THAT much need for VV shred when you have shenhe on the team, honestly. Her ultimate already shreds resistance well, and gives a cryo bonus in its field, plus TTDS on kokomi works wonders for added damage!
My freeze team consists of Ayato (Black Sword, Echoes), Ayaka (Blackcliff, Blizzard), Venti (Windblume, VV), and Diona (Sacrificial, Noblesse). The team has shield, healing, freeze, res shred, crits, cc, and 2 dps carries. Rotation doesn't need to be strict and no need for 5-star weapons. All characters at level 80 with above-average artifact stats. Does well in Abyss.
My best friend and I decided to pull for Ayaka 2 days ago and we got her. This guide will be really helpful for us, thank you so very much!
I got Ayaka yesterday and I’m following this guide still doing decent damage for now but still building her rn I have always wanted her and I’m happy I got her
the haran actually looks more aesthetically pleasing and matches ayaka's outfit much like what mistsplitter is to ayato.
Ok it's either u color blind or I'm crazy
Nvm its me
Thanks a lot for the video, cleared all the questions I still had for her, now I am confident I'll build her right!
I lost 50/50 trying to get Ayato so now I'm gonna try to get Ayaka. Thank you for the guide and good luck to everyone pulling for her!
This is the best tutorial i have seen so far
Just rolled her. I seem to have good luck with cryo characters. Thanks for this vid!
Thanks I was waiting for a guide you're the best can wait to experiment with ayaka and yelan 😁
i'm guaranteed for her! cant wait to have her in my team. im gonna miss xiao in my team for a while later but anything for my baby ayaya!
Thank you for giving best guide I'm here because I got Ayaka today such a dream come true✨
hey sevy! tysm for the build tips. for my ayaka build I use cold steel as a f2p option because at r5 it increases damage against opponents affected by cryo or hydro by 24%! i compared the damage and it was INSANE!
Good explaination and very easy to understand !!! 😍😍😍Thank you soo much !!!!! Already subscribe , keep it up🤘🏻
Your guides are amazing Sevy, keep up your amazing work!!!!
I'm really glad I watched this--Ayaka was my very first five star so I kinda had to just speed build her artifacts--and I was planning on re-farming for her very soon. I was pretty confused on how to deal with her permafreeze crit rate boost (I have xingqiu and diona for now, hoping for a Kazuha rerun soon, or a Mona pull) but this video was very useful in explaining how to deal with it. Also considering changing my sword from blackcliff to amenoma (but I'll have to experiment with that one), and potentially being more stamina-efficient. Thank you for the very simple and useful video! Very funny as well :D
well i usually use her in a freeze comp with diona(4pc noblesse), mona(4pc tenacity with ttds) and alternating with venti(for vv shred) or ganyu(cryo buffer and also for double dps comp), so basically the morgana comp. This comp is pretty strong no matter what the enemy is. Got me through the abyss multiple times.
I already got ayato after losing 50/50 on his banner but I’ll still try to get his sister to have a wholesome duo in my overworked team
I can't wait for tomorrow! Good luck everyone :)
In this rerun I was able to win Ayaka in 50/50 and also get the Mist splitter in the weapon banner I couldn't get more happier in life after that experience.
I was honestly hoping that I’d lose the 50/50, but I really do love her kit. I just really was waiting on yelan/yoimiya and wasn’t expecting to get both Mona and Ayaka in a pull lol
Sevy I've been subbed for a bit now and thought should tell you that your random bouts of savagery with your professional speaking pattern absolutely murder me 😆. "A simp endeavor"
exceptional guide as always, thank you
That's exactly the way I use Ayaka! on 2.4 Spiral Abyss I used her in mono cryo comp along with Shenhe, Diona and Sucrose, Maguu Kenki didn't stand a chance; and on this current iteration I'm using Freeze Ayaka along with Mona, Shenhe and Venti (now that I finally got him Freeze team and Sucrose tazer at the same time are possible)
Just got her today💙 after 150 wishes, glad i got her weapon last time months ago
Grinding out quests and stuff to go for a last chance Sucrose on my 4* only account, a real struggle lol
I enjoy her on my main account and still use her with a mono cryo team with Shenhe, Diona, Venti
the people who farmed full set of blizzard: please send me your strengths and prayers
It's easy, actually easier than building other 4pc set where you have to worry about crit ratio.
been through the pain and suffering of farming blizzard strayed in the first month of its release
put all the best on ganyu
then ayaka come and said to ganyu : "OUR artifacts"
For some reason I was super lucky so I might’ve used up some of the luck pool. I apologize ahead of time.
@@Saihamaru honestly blizzard is not as optimal on ganyu, ayaka benefits way more from it :^
@@BlueCrystalAnimatez i avoid farming wanderer troupe intentionally and only take what i get from doing weekly bosses or farming ascension mats
and yeah, what i have is still not quite as good (specifically, i'm lacking good crit damage head, atk timepiece and cryo goblet, so i had to use subpar artifacts on one of them, which brings my ganyu's overall damage down), so i still use perma freeze shotgun-yu
doesn't really matter though since i use ganyu less and less nowaday.... aiming with controller is not so efficient compared to just spam ayaka's NA/CA
I just got Ayaka today so ty for the guide :D
Thanks for the info. You are as awesome as ever ✌️
ive been seeing your videos recently and they’re great your guides are useful and informative also just simple and easy to understand ❤️‼️ wasnt planning to get ayaka but i wanted a cryo character and i might have enough for kazu
I just got her! I won the 50/50! T.T Planning to get Yelan, but I've been wanting a new character for some time now, and Ayaka looks like a really great unit ^^ Hopefully I willl not regret this haha thanks for the guide!
12:45
“The Black Sword is better used on someone else."
**Equipped by Qiqi**
SHE FINALLY CAME HOME!!!! I've lost my 50/50 on both her previous banners but finally she's here!!!
I was planning to buy Blackcliff long sword (which ive been saving starglitter for weeks) because I was losing hope at weapon banner, then I decided to do a 1 pull and proceeded to drink my coffee.. when I looked at my phone.. I freaking got MISTSPLITTER!!! now im gonna buy bennett con :v
I want that C1
I really wanted to pull for her but my account got hacked during her rerun... Just got it back at the start of Itto rerun
I just got her yesterday after getting Mona and I'm so happy, I'm building her rn as well
Since I've gotten Ayaka I have used her quite regularly and she's definitely my second fav cryo character after kaeya. I really want to build her properly as a cryo dps because her play style is just so fun. This video has so much useful info, some that I wasn't even aware of before. Hopefully I'll be able to put all this to use.
wow :D i used kaeya once and i just didnt like his elemental skill so i benched him right away :O also he kinda got that jack sparrow gay pirate vibe :x
@@darkgix6326 I mostly use kaeya as a burst support because it remains after switching characters and moves with them. Since I had to get up and personal with the enemies while using Razor it was pretty handy. I also like his "pirate aesthetic" as you say not to mention his colour scheme. Other cryo characters are also good but I just never quite liked them as much as Keaya and Ayaka. That's why all of my other cryo characters are benched and I haven't build them up as much.
Thank you for this! ♥️ I needed this guide for my Ayaka’s redemption arc 😭♥️
Hopped on Genshin for the first time in about 2 or 3 weeks. Had saved 125 fates for Ayaka before. Pulled Diluc and Ayaka BACK TO BACK after 50 summons. Then right after I pulled Mistsplitter on my first summon on the weapon banner. Basically 3 five star things in 60 summons.
Love your videos! Thanks for all the detailed information. :)
Finally got her after skipping her for Yoimiya. I don't need to feel bad anymore
Goodluck to Ayaka wanters!!!
SEVY I GOT AYAKA!! Thank u for this wonderful guide once again♥️
started playing 2 weeks ago already at AR 45 with every map unlocked and discovered, Ayaka as my main, never regretted pulling for her and manage to get my hands on the Mistsplitter as well
I am planning on using venti and anemona Sword so she will have no energy problems 👍
I already got 30/220 crit (after calculating) artifacts for her
This guide is awesome as always.
I got her without pity in some 20th-ish wish. Never expected that. Now I need to build her 😂😂
After hearing about how much Ayaka can do and how long the rerun would be around for, I decided to shake for vons and I got super lucky! I got her to C4 in about 300$, by comparison in the most unlucky scenario that wouldn't be enough for just one con starting from no pity
JUST GOT HER ON A SINGLE PULL LETS GOOO
I still havent gotten any good artifacts with blizzard yet i still hit 10k, considering i gave her my hp emblem set and it’s not even that leveled up! She’s sooo good. 💖 hoping to get more luckier in the blizzard domain!!
Wow, Sevy; you thorough good job!
Your guides are perfect!
