Kaeya's Legendary Build

Frostwind Swordsman

An accomplished swordsman and a strategic thinker in the Knights of Favonius, rumored to hail from beyond Mondstadt.

Cryo

Region

Mondstadt

Affiliation

Knights of Favonius

Constellation

Pavo Ocellus

Birthday

November 30

Talent Priority:

  • As in most teams, by application or as a support, it is not very necessary to increase the normal attack.

  •  Kaeya's short cooldown and energy requirements allow us to easy building as a reliable party member.

Constellation Recommendation:

Being a free and permanent character with few chances of getting its constellations, many of them like its C2 that does not allow to increase the damage by always having the ultimate.

Video Summary

Kaeya Build Guide

This guide explores the versatility of Kaeya as both a Cryo carry and a reliable support unit. By understanding his talent scaling and constellation benefits, players can optimize this starter character for high-end content like the Spiral Abyss.

Best Weapons

  • Mistsplitter Reforged: This is the premier choice for a main DPS Kaeya build, especially when paired with Chongyun to maintain Cryo infusion. It provides massive elemental damage bonuses that significantly boost his Elemental Burst and Skill damage.
  • Primordial Jade Cutter: A top-tier generalist sword that offers a massive Critical Rate boost, making it easier to balance his stat priorities. It works exceptionally well in various team comps where maintaining a high crit ratio is essential for consistent damage.
  • Amenoma Kageuchi: This craftable option is excellent for managing Energy Recharge needs while providing a solid Attack percentage. It is highly recommended for F2P players who want to ensure Kaeya can use his Elemental Burst on every rotation.
  • Favonius Sword: The best choice for a dedicated support role, acting as a battery for the entire team. Use this when Kaeya is focused on utility and needs to funnel energy to hungry teammates like Xiangling or Rosaria.
  • Iron Sting: A strong niche pick for Reverse Melt builds where Elemental Mastery is a priority. It enhances the damage of Kaeya's Cryo reactions when paired with Pyro enablers like Bennett and Xiangling.

Best Artifacts

  • Blizzard Strayer: The definitive 4-piece set for Permafrost team comps, providing a massive 40% Critical Rate against frozen enemies. This allows you to focus almost entirely on Critical Damage and Attack in your artifact substats.
  • Noblesse Oblige: A flexible 2-piece set that grants a 20% Burst damage bonus, often paired with Blizzard Strayer for sub-DPS roles. It is ideal for teams where you cannot consistently freeze enemies but still want high burst output.

Teams and Stat Priorities

  • Stat Priorities: Focus on Attack percentage Sands, Cryo Damage Bonus Goblet, and Crit Rate or Damage Circlet, while aiming for sufficient Energy Recharge substats. In Reverse Melt teams, prioritize Elemental Mastery to maximize reaction damage.
  • Permafrost Team: Utilizing Kaeya, Xingqiu, and Chongyun creates a permanent freeze lock on enemies. This niche relies on the Blizzard Strayer set to maximize crit efficiency while keeping enemies completely immobilized during combat.
  • Reverse Melt Team: This composition features Kaeya, Rosaria, Xiangling, and Bennett to trigger powerful Cryo-on-Pyro reactions. It focuses on high elemental scaling and requires good internal cooldown management to ensure Kaeya melts his heavy-hitting icicles.
  • Vaporize-Melt Hybrid: A specialized team featuring Hu Tao and Xingqiu where Kaeya acts as a Cryo flex unit. He provides occasional freezes and melts, adding extra layers of elemental reaction damage to Hu Tao's powerful charged attacks.
