Aloy is the heroine from “Horizon Zero Dawn”, a PS4 and Microsoft Windows game. She was introduced as a collaboration and crossover character between Guerrilla Games and miHoYo.
It was introduced between Versions 2.1-2.1 on PlayStation and Version 2.2 on all platforms. Now, you can obtain her when you reach Adventure Rank 20.
Even if she’s not a Genshin Impact original character and doesn’t have a quest, you can consider her to be part of your party. If you need a Cryo user in your team and you don’t have any except her, we present you some builds for her!
3. Gladiator’s Finale and Blizzard Strayer
Guide:
Blizzard Strayer (or Icebreaker) is an Artifact Set available at 4-star and 5-star rarities which can be obtained from Peak of Vindagnyr. The 2-Piece Bonus of this set increases Cryo DMG by 15%.
The 2-Piece Bonus of Gladiator’s Finale increases your character’s ATK by 18%. Shimenawa’s Reminiscence Set has this bonus too and can be farmed in a domain.
- Aloy’s Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst deal Cryo DMG. The use of Blizzard Strayer increases this Cryo DMG.
- Gladiator’s Finale increases Aloy’s basic attacks. These two sets make Aloy a really good Sub DPS, since she doesn’t have enough ATK to be a DPS.
- The perfect weapon for this set is Predator, a bow that increases Aloy’s normal and charged ATK by 10% for 6s every time she deals Cryo DMG. A substitute can be Thundering Pulse, a bow that increases her ATK by 20%.
2. Blizzard Strayer
Guide:
The 4-Piece Bonus of Blizzard Strayer increases CRIT Rate by 20% every time a character attacks an opponent affected by Cryo. If the opponent is Frozen, CRIT Rate is increased by an additional 20%.
As we said, Aloy’s Elemental Burst and Skill deal Cryo DMG. This set will increase these skills and charge attack’s DMG. This set is focused for a Burst DPS Aloy.
Characters such as Xingqiu, Bennet, or Sucrose will be perfect for your Aloy’s team. You have to be able to do Elemental Reactions to deal more Cryo DMG and these characters are perfect for that.
The Thundering Pulse is the best weapon for this build.
1. Blizzard Strayer and Noblesse Oblige
Guide:
Noblesse Oblige is an Artifact Set available at 4-star and 5-star rarities and can be obtained from Clear Pool and Mountain Cavern. Its 2-Piece Bonus increases Elemental Burst DMG by 20%.
- If you need a Burst Support, Aloy with this set is perfect for that. Her only purpose with this build is to deal a lot of DMG with her Elemental Burst while another character does Elemental Reactions.
- Diluc, Tartaglia or Hu Tao are perfect for this team. They are really good DPS that can deal a lot of DMG and get a lot of benefits from Elemental Reactions.
- The Stringless is perfect for this build. This bow increases Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst DMG by 24%. Another good option is the Sacrificial Bow, a weapon that has a 40% chance to end its own CD when you hit an opponent with a skill.
We know that Aloy isn’t the best support, the best Cryo character, or the best DPS, but we wanted to prove to you that she can be as useful as any other character,
Now it’s your time to decide if you want her in your team!
