The second half of the Genshin Impact 2.3 version has just begun. As we say goodbye to the fun 'Shadows Amidst Snowstorms' quest and the double Albedo and Eula Rerun banner, we welcome the many events and new banners coming in the next half. Two all-new characters are being introduced to the game- AratakiItto and Gorou. The geo duo complements each other perfectly, and if you want to learn how to build each, this is the perfect place. But today, we'll see how to build AratakiItto in the best possible way.
AratakiItto is the leader of the Arataki Gang. He's a Geo Vision bearing character with claymore as his weapon of choice. AratakiItto is a descendant of the Crimson Oni, a creature that looks a lot like humans. The biggest differences are that they have horns and have a ferocious personality. He plays the role of a DPS character whose damage increases by Def scaling. Zero stamina consumption enhances the charged attack. Itto has a high Crit rate at the start of the game.
His bull friend, Ushi, is a Geo construct that taunts foes and gathers them for effective strikes.
As for the Ascension Materials, you'll need these set of items:
As for the Talent Materials, you'll need these set of items:
Ushi, a juvenile akaushi bull and an auxiliary member of the Arataki Gang, hurls opponents, causing Geo damage. Surrounding opponents are taunted, attracting their attacks. HP is inherited as a proportion of Ushi's maximum health. When its HP is depleted, or its duration expires, it will flee.
Itto's ATK will be increased based on his DEF. His Normal Attack SPD will also be increased. On a hit, the first and third attacks of his Normal Attack combo will grant Itto 1 stack of Superlative Superstrength. The Raging Oni King state will be cleared when he leaves the field.
His BiS weapon "RedhornStonethresher" Claymore, which is currently available to summon for on the weapon banner, is the greatest weapon. If you don't have the primogems for him and want to opt for a 4-star option, you can go for White blind or Serpent Spine. Whiteblind has a def% sub stat, and Serpent Spine has a crit rate sub stat which both are just as good for him as a 5-star weapon.
As for the artifact set, this version came out with a new domain with the perfect Artifacts for Itto- Husk of Opulent Dreams. The domain is called the Slumbering Court domain, and you can find it in Fort Hiraumi on the Serai Islands. Itto is a def-scaling character, and if you want to build him in the best way possible, I would recommend you go for a 4-piece of this set.
Husk of Opulent Dreams:
DEF and +6% Geo damage in stacks of one every 0.3s, for a total of four stacks. One stack is gained every three seconds when off-field. The buff loses one stack every 6 seconds if no new stacks are gained.
As for the stats, you will need Def, Crit Rate, Crit Damage, and Energy Recharge. If you're lacking Energy Recharge and have a battery character like Raiden Shogun. A mono-geo team consisting of Gorou and Albedo would also make him very viable.
AratakiItto can be built mostly as the main DPS, but he can also be built as a sub-DPS if desired. Regardless, his kit is one of the best we have seen so far, and if you're saving up to summon for him, Good luck!
