Kamisato Ayato’s main strength relies on his Elemental Skill in Genshin Impact, which leaves players with many options for building a team around him. The elder brother of Kamisato Ayaka and head of the Kamisato Clan, Ayato is a Hydro character that wields a sword, just like Genshin Impact’s Xingqiu. Ayato’s arrival in Genshin Impact has been one of the most anticipated in the game’s history. Ayato’s Elemental Burst can cause Hydro rain on the field, and due to the nature of his ability, he works best in the role of main DPS.
After Ayato’s release, players knew the ultimate pairing to use with Ayato: his sister and Cryo user, Kamisato Ayaka. Aside from the obvious symmetry of Ayato’s Hydro with Ayaka’s Cryo, the two siblings' abilities were designed to work in harmony. Genshin Impact's Ayaka is one of the strongest Cryo DPS in the game and can be used to freeze enemies in place when combined with Ayato’s Elemental Burst. Additionally, players can round off the team to add a second Cryo or Hydro user for elemental resonance, plus another Support or Healer.
If players don't have Ayaka or a similar Cryo DPS like Ganyu, they can opt for a non-freezing team that uses Ayato's Hydro abilities to trigger elemental reactions. Ayato's Hydro can be used well alongside Pyro or Electro to trigger Vaporize and Electro-Charged elemental reactions. Genshin Impact has several free Pyro characters, like Outrider Amber and Liyue's best chef Xiangling, that even new players will be able to obtain without spending money.
Best Team Composition For Kamisato Ayato
Kamisato Ayato will likely act as the Main DPS for any team he’s in, and there are several good options for teams using Ayato in the Main DPS role:
- Team One: Ayato (Hydro DPS), Yoimiya/Hu Tao (Pyro DPS used for Vaporize), Zhongli (Geo Shield/Support), Yun Jin (Geo Support used for resonance). Yoimiya and Hu Tao can be used interchangeably depending on which characters the player owns.
- Team Two: Ayato (Hydro DPS), Ayaka (Cryo DPS), Kazuha (Support), Kokomi (Hydro Support/Healer used for resonance). This team sees the Kamisato siblings fight side by side. Ayaka, one of Genshin Impact's Cryo characters, freezes enemies affected by Hydro, thanks to Ayato.
Best F2P Team Composition For Kamisato Ayato
- Main DPS: Ayato
- Sub DPS: Xiangling
- Sub DPS: Kaeya
- Support: Noelle
The best team composition for Kamisato Ayato in Genshin impact relies heavily on capitalizing on chaining Reactions. As such, players who are looking to build a F2P team around Ayato would want to take full advantage of that. Kaeya and Xiangling’s Bursts often last long, which is the perfect situation to switch to Ayato and use his skill. Noelle is a better fit in the support role in this team composition as it allows players to be a bit more aggressive. Noelle's best build in Genshin Impact is effective at creating Shields that heal the party and absorbs 400% of damage equal to her defense.
Ayato is a powerful Hydro DPS who can be used effectively alongside Pyro or Electro to trigger Vaporize and Electro-Charged elemental reactions, dealing devastating damage. Ayato is arguably most effective when used alongside his younger sister, Kamisato Ayaka, a powerful Cryo DPS who can freeze enemies in place. 5-star Hydro user Kamisato Ayato is an exciting addition to Genshin Impact and a fantastic Main DPS choice for any team composition.
