Compassionate, refined, and elegant as well as a powerful swords fighter.

She has an impressive area-of-effect attack that uses a snowstorm to push her enemies away.

Here’s how to get the most out of Ayaka in Genshin Impact.

Best weapons for Ayaka in Genshin Impact

Ayaka is a versatile character who needs to both activate her abilities and attack regularly.

All of these are boosted by the critical damage stat, which Mistsplitter Reforged can provide you with.

This is Ayaka’s signature weapon and will increase her elemental damage as well.

The sword’s passive ability will infuse her normal attacks with Cryo power.

Here are some alternative weapons for Ayaka in Genshin Impact:

• Haran Geppaku Futsu (five-star sword)
• Amenoma Kageuchi (four-star sword)
• The Black Sword (four-star sword)

Best artifacts for Ayaka in Genshin Impact

A full set of Blizzard Strayer is the best artifact set for Ayaka, as it boosts her Cryo damage by 15%.

It also increases the critical hit rate of enemies affected by Cryo by 20%.

This is a devastating combination, particularly if she has a weapon that already boosts critical damage.

In addition, if Ayaka is on a Freeze team, her critical hit rate is boosted by a further 20%.

You should get the following stat distribution on Ayaka’s artifact set:

• Flower: HP (main stat), Critical Hit Rate, Critical Damage, Attack%, Energy Recharge (secondary stats)
• Plume: Attack (main stat), Critical Hit Rate, Critical Damage, Attack%, Energy Recharge (secondary stats)
• Sands: Attack% (main stat), Critical Hit Rate, Critical Damage, Attack, Energy Recharge (secondary stats)
• Goblet: Cryo Damage% (main stat), Critical Hit Rate, Critical Damage, Attack%, Energy Recharge (secondary stats)
• Circlet: Critical Hit Rate or Critical Damage (main stat), Critical Hit Rate or Critical Damage, Attack%, Energy Recharge, Attack (secondary stats)

Best teams for Ayaka in Genshin Impact

As mentioned before, Ayaka works best on Freeze teams, and she is the best option when trying to build one.

Ayaka will stay on the field as long as possible, and will benefit from the Cryo Resonance that Shenhe provides.

This will further increase the critical hit rate by 15%.

Kazuha provides crowd control by collecting all targets in one area, which makes it easier for Ayaka to freeze them.

He also shreds the elemental resonance with his Swirl reactions. Kokomi heals and applies Hydro for the Freeze.
