How to play Arataki Itto in Genshin Impact ?

Arataki Itto is played as the main DPS. To take advantage of its full potential, we advise you to upgrade all its talents.

The gang leader offers a gameplay that is both simple and enjoyable. First of all, execute his normal attack: Legend of the fight. You will be able to chain 4 sword strikes together. The^2nd and^4th strike will give him 1 and 2 superlative Megaforce accumulations. After accumulating 5, perform Itto's charged attack. You will perform kesa giri without consuming stamina. Once all the charges have been used, Arataki Itto will inflict a very powerful attack on his opponents. You can follow the progress of the stacks thanks to the Oni aura placed on Itto's back.

You also gain Megaforce charges from the elemental attack: Anti-Demon Zetsugi: Akaushi Catapult. Arataki Itto summons Ushi, a bull that unleashes great damage upon arrival, while drawing enemies to him.

But Itto's most ferocious ability is without a doubt his elemental rampage: Evil Oni King: Itto's Coming. All his attacks are now impregnated with the Geo element, but also faster. Finally, his ATK is increased according to his DEF. On the other hand, if you change character, unlike Noelle, her elemental rampage will end.

To play Arataki Itto well in Genshin Impact, start by triggering the buffs and burst of your support characters. Then summon Ushi, and use his normal attack so that you have enough superlative Megaforce to perform a charged attack. Continue this until his ultimate attack has been able to charge. It will take a lot of energy to activate it.

In which team should Arataki Itto play?

Arataki Itto is played as the main DPS, he is only there to hurt and that is already very good, especially in the spiral depths. But you can still increase his damage with his team. The team will mainly be used to boost him and give him the energy particles he desperately needs.

We advise you to play at least 3 Geo characters, including Gorou. The 4-star archer is almost indispensable thanks to the bonuses he provides.

You can also choose Zhongli to apply a shield and decrease the enemy's resistance. Albedo The elemental attack will inflict continuous damage while providing energy.

If you can compose a team of 4 Geo heroes, we recommend you to choose a^4th character of another type in order to benefit from elemental reactions. For example, Fischl Fischl and Shogun Raiden will apply Electro damage. Bennett is also possible to boost Itto's assaults and heal your team if Gorou doesn't have his^4th constellation.
