published

Here is our complete Aloy Best Build Guide in Genshin Impact for this girl from another world. Find out the Best Weapons and Artifacts for her!

Aloy is 4-Star Cryo Bow user in Genshin Impact. The official PlayStation Twitter account made an unexpected announcement, informing fans that Aloy from Horizon Zero Dawn will be visiting Teyvat for a limited time. All Travelers with an Adventure Rank of 20 or higher were able to claim Aloy for free using the in-game mail system. Between Versions 2.1 and 2.2, PlayStation owners were able to get Aloy first, while all platforms were eligible for Version 2.2.

Aloy Best Build Guide

Strengths

  • High Cryo Elemental Burst DMG with low Energy Cost. 
  • Can convert her own Normal ATKs into Cryo. 
  • Debuffs Enemy ATK while buffs Party Members’ ATK.

Weaknesses

  • Coil Stacks depend on Enemies being hit by the scattered Bombs deployed by her Elemental Skill. 
  • Conversion of Normal ATK into Cryo depends on Coil stacks. 
  • No Constellations.

Aloy Talents

Rapid Fire (Normal Attack)

Normal Attack – Performs up to 4 consecutive shots with a bow.

Charged Attack – Perform a more precise Aimed Shot with increased DMG. While aiming, biting frost will accumulate on the arrowhead. A fully charged frost arrow will deal Cryo DMG.

Plunging Attack – Fires off a shower of arrows in mid-air before falling and striking the ground, dealing AoE DMG upon impact.

Frozen Wilds (Elemental Skill)

Aloy throws a Freeze Bomb in the targeted direction and triggers an explosion, dealing Cryo DMG. After it explodes, the Freeze Bomb will split up into many Chillwater Bomblets that explode on contact with opponents or after a short delay, dealing Cryo DMG. When a Freeze Bomb or Chillwater Bomblet hits an opponent, the opponent’s ATK is decreased and Aloy receives 1 Coil stack. Aloy can gain up to 1 Coil stack every 0.1s.

Coil

  • Each stack increases Aloy’s Normal Attack DMG.
  • When Aloy has 4 Coil stacks, all stacks of Coil are cleared. She then enters the Rushing Ice state, which further increases the DMG dealt by her Normal Attacks and converts her Normal Attack DMG to Cryo DMG.

Prophecies of Dawn (Elemenal Burst)

Aloy throws a Power Cell filled with Cryo in the targeted direction, then detonates it with an arrow, dealing AoE Cryo Damage.
