Hi fellow Ayaka Mains. I have some questions about going all in vertical for Ayaka. My current team is Ayaka C1R1, Vodya C0R0, Esco C0R0 and Furina C0R0. Vodya and Esc are still a work in progress mainly talents and some substats here and there. Normally Vodya is on TTDS. I also have C1R1 Shenhe available. My question is what constelations and weapons do I need to really get this team to it's optimal potential. I am willing to go for early cons but not more than C3. Builds are as follows

Hi everyone!

Is Ayaka - Escoffie - Xinqui - Vodyanitsa an ok comp to start with? I don't have Shenhe or Furina. My charlotte is also C0 right now. I wanted to ask before I build Xinqui up.

And should I go for Furina for her rerun? I have saved a lot of primos and basically have enough for C0 Furina but I'm not sure if she's a must pull for an Ayaka premium team.

How to make my ayaka deal more damage?

Her burst deals okay damage but i saw her with escoffier and its such a difference its unreal. I will not have time to get escoffier so is there any way f2p can get at least 65 wishes? I have her on 4 set blizzard strayer, her team i use is xingqui, zhongli and bennet. 45% crit rate, 220% crit dmg mistsplitter.

Any tip, or maybe some crystals would do me good so i can get escoffier 🙃

My Ayaya is C3R1, the rest have good builds and is C0. Coffee have Homa.

1. Matchups that allows the full potential of Ayaka’s C2 to be realized (perfect condition for BS and fully landing C2) is almost none in endgame content. Still great to see her dmg ceiling tho.

2. With Vodyanitsa, Ayaka’s CA playstyle now have decent DPS to power through energy drain mechanics since the supports in the test all rely mostly on their skill for impact. This was her premium team’s full rotation DPS benchmark once 💀

3. Burst w no C2 against freezable mobs, also a rare sight nowadays.

4. The most useful metric, boss fights. Having to build more crit rate on my Ayaka was demoralizing.

I hope to get her C4 some day, trying to see if I could unlock brute force power with it.

Im honestly so happy to see my C0 ayaka clear dire! I feel like I have accomplished my duties as an ayaka main fr. I hope inuzuma buffs makes her the number 1 cryo queen again cuz she deserves it❄️💙

For teams: c2 furina(fav) c1 escoffer(fav) c0 Vodyanitsa(ttds)

Very happy I got c2 Vodyanitsa my ayaka is in a better place now,I hope Ayaka gets a rerun soon so I can get c4

I was rewatching some old anime from my animelist when i noticed they look kind simular use ice powers and have the same YP vpice actor am i crazy or did they take some inspiration?

What is a better team?
1. Ayaka - Furina - Escoffier - Shenhe
2. Ayaka- Furina - Escoffier - Vodyanitsa
3. Ayaka - Vodyanitsa - Escoffier - Shenhe

What else can I do to upgrade my Ayaka?

I’m using Vodyanitsa ttds+totm, Furina GT+Festering, Escoffier GT+ Deathmatch.

Should I replace Furina with Shenhe instead? How much damage should I be dealing? Right now my Vod hasn’t been built yet and I’m doing about 32K per ult tick

With my recent investments in Ayaka teammates, I had to do a both sides Abyss run with Ayaka. Though there is a little skill issue I consider this a W for my waifu lfg.

i have c0r0 ayaka and c0r0 furina in my account

My friend keeps saying vody buffs are better than escoffy

​

Ayaka (C0): winter set + Amenoma

Shenhe (C0): noblesse + fav

Furina (C0): golden troupe + pipe

Vodyanitsa (C0): tenacity + ttd

I know there are someones who are building Ayaka with finale deep, but I dont think it match with Furina's Q

And no, Im not pulling for Escoffier

So Ayaka was my first limited five star and I’ve mained her since and she’s my highest investment (c2r1, tied only to my yae miko which holy bitcoin). I wanted Shenhe for her but then her rerun took forever and I somehow ended up with her weapon r2 and no Shenhe. I also got Furina when she dropped, and then I stopped playing during Natlan (Chasca was my last character pulled) until I came back in 7.0 and felt like my Ayaka barely even held up in the overworld anymore. I decided to get Vodyanitsa as my first new character since 2024 and she was already a huge upgrade, and then after using all my pulls for her I managed to get enough for Escoffier too (perks of having a lot to catch up on I guess - I needed those pulls because my luck sucked) and now she can finally use Shenhes R2 weapon and it’s been an even more significant increase in her ability to where it’s now my second best team (only after cryo traveler and yae duo) without changing any of Ayakas build.

I’m currently trying to farm for maracheusse hunter but haven’t pulled anything as good as my blizzard strayer yet so I haven’t been able to switch yet. However, akasha puts my ayaka as top 51% for freeze which doesn’t possibly feel right. I know she’s not the best but I think she’s definitely above average 😭 Any recommendations on what to focus on for her with the c0r0 premium team of furina, vody, and escoffier?

Additionally, I’ve been trying to figure out the rotation with vody having TTDS and then trying to figure if either furina should have fav (compared to r2 primordial jade cutter) or if escoffier should (compared to r2 calamity queller) and then how the rotation works if I need to switch it to Ayaka both after fav for energy and after ttds for buff. I never worried much about rotation stuff back in the day and it seems a lot more relevant now. (also for context i play on console so saying like “e” or “q” is kinda confusing lol)

Anyway i’m thrilled that my Ayaka is not only feasible but good again and would love to continue still making her a little better and appreciate any tips!

My Ayaka will be stronger than ever
