Aloy Cryo DPS

One of Aloy’s strengths is that she has insane Cryo power. She gets stronger if she can trigger Melt and Freeze reactions. Plus, she has great AoE. Here are the recommended weapons and artifacts for Aloy Cryo DPS:

Weapon Recommendations

Highly Recommended

Thundering Pulse (5✰): Increases ATK by 20% and grants the might of the Thunder Emblem. At stack levels 1/2/3, the Thunder Emblem increases Normal Attack DMG by 12/24/40%~24/48/80%. The character will obtain 1 stack of Thunder Emblem in each of the following scenarios: Normal Attack deals DMG (stack lasts 5s), casting Elemental Skill (stack lasts 10s); Energy is less than 100% (stack disappears when Energy is full). Each stack's duration is calculated independently.

Predator (4✰): Inflicting Cryo DMG to opponents increases this character's Normal and Charged Attack DMG by 10% for 6s. This effect can have a maximum of 2 stacks. Additionally, when Aloy equips Predator, ATK is increased by 66.

Alternatives

Viridescent Hunt (4✰): Upon hit, Normal and Aimed Shot Attacks have a 50% chance to generate a Cyclone, which will continuously attract surrounding opponents, inflicting 40% of ATK as DMG to these opponents every 0.5s for 4s. This effect can only occur once every 14s.

• Flower of Life: Flat +HP;
• Plume of Death: Flat +ATK.
• Sands of Eon: ATK%

Blizzard Strayer + Gladiator’s Finale

Talents

You need lots of resources to level up Aloy’s Talents, which means you'll also need to spend a lot of time doing so. Therefore, you should prioritize her Talents in this order:

1. Prophecies of Dawn (Elemental Burst);
2. Normal Attack: Rapid Fire;
3. Frozen Wilds (Elemental Skill).

Team Comps

As for the team comp, it’s highly recommended to have a Pyro character along with Aloy to trigger Melt reactions. By triggering Melt reactions, Aloy will be able to dish out an insane amount of damage. Here’s the recommended team comp for Aloy Cryo DPS:

Recommended

1. Aloy (Main DPS);
2. Xiangling (Sub DPS);
3. Venti (Support);
4. Bennett (Support)

With this team comp, Aloy will be able to trigger Melt reactions so easily as she’ll have Xiangling and Bennett inflict Pyro damage. You can start with Xiangling’s skills, followed by Venti to put the opponents together, use Bennett’s Elemental Burst, and lastly, you can finish off with Aloy’s attacks.

Venti’s role is quite flexible in this team comp and you can switch him with other characters like Kaedehara Kazuha, Sucrose, or even Sangonomiya Kokomi to trigger Frozen reactions.

F2P

1. Aloy (Main DPS);
2. Xiangling (Sub DPS);
3. Traveler Anemo (Support);
4. Barbara (Support Healer),

If you don’t have a star-studded team for F2P, you can use this team comp. The combo is pretty similar, you can use Guoba as the Pyro damage dealer, and spread the Pyro damage using Anemo attacks with Traveler.

You can use Barbara at crucial moments to heal or trigger Frozen reactions.

Talents

1. Prophecies of Dawn (Elemental Burst);
2. Frozen Wilds (Elemental Skill).
3. Normal Attack: Rapid Fire;

Team Comps

Aloy Burst DPS needs a similar team comp with her Cryo DPS version, as both rely on Melt reactions to double her damage output. 

Recommended

1. Aloy (Main DPS);
2. Xiangling (Sub DPS);
3. Kaedehara Kazuha (Support);
4. Xingqiu (Support)

This team comp provides flexibility for Aloy as she can withstand attacks and trigger Frozen reactions with Xingqiu, yet still able to dish out a significant amount of damage with the help of Xiangling and Kaedehara Kazuha.

You can switch Xiangling and Kazuha for Bennett and Venti if necessary. However, Xiangling is the best pair for Aloy to trigger Melt reactions.

F2P

1. Aloy (Main DPS);
2. Xiangling (Sub DPS);
3. Traveler Anemo (Support);
4. Bennett (Support),

It’s not so different for F2P as you just need to switch Kaedehara Kazuha with Traveler (Anemo) to spread Pyro effects.
