Once maxed out, the weapon has a 608 base attack and a 33.1% critical rate. The weapon’s skill, Honed Flow, increases all elemental damage by 12%. Not to mention that this is Ayato’s signature weapon.

Furthermore, we can recommend Jade Cutter, which also has a critical rate as the additional stat. At max level, the weapon has 542 base attacks and a critical rate of 44.1%. The weapon’s skill is called Protector’s Virtue, and it increases health by 20% and provides an attack bonus of 1.2% of the max HP of the character.
We can also recommend Mistsplitter Reforged, which has critical damage as the additional stat. The sword has a base attack of 674 and 44.1% critical damage at max level. The sword’s skill is called Mistsplitter’s Edge, which provides a 12% elemental damage bonus for every element and the Mistsplitter’s Emblem.

If you do not wish on the weapon banner often, then we can recommend the Black Sword, which is a 4-star weapon. It has a critical rate as the additional stat, and at max level, it has a base attack of 510 and a critical rate of 27.6%. The weapon’s skill is called Justice, which increases damage from normal and charged attacks by 20%.

The sword’s skill is called Iwakura Succession, which provides a succession seed when an elemental skill is used. Using an elemental burst will consume seeds that regenerate 7.5 energy each.
Best Artefacts
We recommend going with the 4-piece Echoes Of An Offering set. This increases attack by 18%, and there is a 36% chance of triggering Valley Rite when hitting a target with normal attacks. This increases normal attack damage by 70% of attack. Furthermore, if a normal attack does not trigger Valley Rite, the odds of triggering the effect the next time are increased by 20%.
If you are going for a sub-DPS Ayato build, we recommend going with 2-piece Heart Of Depth and 2-piece Noblesse Oblige. This will increase hydro damage by 15% and elemental burst damage by 20%.
Furthermore, you can also go with the 4-piece Heart of Depth set, which increases hydro damage by 15% and increases normal and charged attack damage by 30% after an elemental skill.
