Best Team

| The best lineup for Kaeya

Kaeya can act as a Physical main DPS or one Extra DPS for Tape boom. His Burst is valuable as it is an ability on the field and can match most Ice reaction features.

Senior team

Extra DPS Main DPS Extra DPS Support
kaeya Dilute Winds dione

 

– Kaeya's main contribution to the team is his Burst. It's best used after Diluc's Burst or when he raises the skill from Cooldown. Do not use it alone to make the most of its value.

– Diluc will be Team main DPS and will be on the field most of the time. Toss his skills with Kaeya's to continuously promote Melt. It's best to only use his Burst after Venti has grouped the enemy.

- Ability crowd control Venti's works well with Kaeya or Diluc because whether it's Ice or Fire that Swirl, it will work for the whole team. His explosion also prevents enemies from being knocked back when hit by Diluc's Explosion.

– Diona and Kaeya will give the team extra Crit Rate by their elemental resonance. Diona and Kaeya can also act as a battery for each other depending on whether you need healing or damage.

Recommended gameplay
1 Get started with Diona's Skills for Ice and shields app for your team.
2 Switch to Venti then use his Burst. Make sure it hits enemies hit by Ice.
3 Use Diluc's Burst to hit enemies captured by Venti.
4 Close the gap and get to where the enemy will land after Venti's Burst, and use Kaeya's Burst.
5 Switch to normal attack Diluc. You can also use the Diluc Skill if the Fire infusion from his explosion has expired.

 

Team F2P

Extra DPS Main DPS Extra DPS Support
kaeya xiangling chongyun Bennett

 

– Toss the Ice skill Kaeya's with Chongyun's to continuously promote Melt. Their Elemental Resonance will also give the team an extra Crit Rate.

– Xiangling will be Main DPS. While Chongyun's Skill will turn all her attacks into Ice, this can be taken advantage of when her Burst is out. This will ensure all of her Burst attacks will hit Melt thanks to Cryo Infusion and Xiangling's fast basic attacks.

- It's best to save Chongyun's Skill until Xiangling got his ultimate. If you use it without her Burst, it will be very detrimental to the team. It can work if you use Kaeya with Cryo DMG Goblet and Blizzard Strayer 2
pellets.

– Bennett will provide the group healing and damage required at the start of the combo.

| Best constellation ratings and legends

Ranking Constellation effect
C1 ★★ ☆ • Very good constellation for a main Kaeya DPS.
C2 ★★★ • Increases Kaeya's DMG Burst.
• Energy return is appreciated due to reduced Energy Recovery requirement.

Perfect at C0 for sub DPS

Kaeya's constellations barely increase his damage as an extra DPS, so he's completely feasible at C0. While C2 looks attractive, it is highly unlikely that his blast will defeat an enemy when its DMG rate is low.
