FREEZE Build 👍
Kaeya Freeze is mostly used in a team with Chongyun and Xingqiu/Barbara while having Blizzard Strayer (4) equipped. In this team, Kaeya has 55% crit rate against Frozen enemies without any additional Crit stats, which means Crit Rate substats are generally prioritized less than ATK% or Crit DMG. Crit Rate Generally has less value than the other offensive stats due to Blizzard Strayer and Cryo Resonance If not paired with Chongyun, Skill takes priority over Normal Attacks
ABILITY TIP
As a Freeze DPS, he gains over 55%+ Crit Rate with the right team set up: - 15% from Cryo Resonance against Cryo affected enemies - 40% from Blizzard Strayer against Frozen enemies - 15% from [C1] against Cryo affected enemies
