II. Best ATK Combo Guide For Itto

Itto can play as the main DPS in any team. When you know how to combine his attacks and skills right, this DPS fighter can finish big monsters down quickly. Here are some highly recommended ATK combos for Arataki Itto.

#1. Solo Superlative Superstrength

You can get Superlative Superstrength stacks by combining his elemental skills and normal attacks. To get more stacks, you have to combine his skills and attacks in the order of normal attacks > elemental skill > normal attacks > burst after Ushi leaves the battle.

Alternatively, you can switch to another character while Ushi is in the battle and dealing DMG on enemies. You can also use Itto's charged attack in that phase. After collecting Superlative Superstrength stacks, you can use them to deal more DMG without consuming stamina during the phase of charged attacks. Moreover, this Geo DPS will get more interruption resistance. The ending slash of Itto when using Superlative Superstrength stacks is really deadly.

Itto's solo skills make him useful in the co-op mode.

#2. Overloaded Buffs

Itto can play solo well, but his skills can also combine with other characters' skills to deal tons of damage. In specific, Itto's Geo burst gives the Overloaded elemental reactions great buffs. In this build, you should let him team up with the Raiden Shogun and Thoma or Xinyan.

Their CRIT DMG of consecutive bursts in the chain of Geo > Pyro > Electro make enemies more vulnerable and easier to kill. Besides, you can use Zhongli or Noelle's skills to create a hard shield for better defense. It makes sure that you won't burn your characters and kill yourself.

Itto can support a Pyro team.

#3. Geo Resonance

Like Zhongli's best attack combos, Itto players are also recommended to use Geo resonance for higher elemental and physical damage. Zhongli, Gorou, and Albedo are highly recommended teammates for rich players. Poor players can use Ningguang, Noelle, Yunjin, or Geo Travelers to replace Zhongli and Albedo if they cannot obtain these 5-star characters for Itto's Geo team.

Gorou is a 4-star Geo character, so his drop rate is higher. He is a great Geo battery for this team. In the upcoming Latern Rite festival of Genshin Impact 2.4, players can get Yunjin or Ningguang for free. These female characters are also available in Shenhe and Xiao's banners now.

Bonus: How To Use Ushi?

Hurls Ushi is the bull pet of Arataki Itto. Itto will release his pet when using the elemental skill. Then, the bull will hit enemies with Geo DMG. You can use this bull as an auxiliary team member to support Itto. There are three tips you should know in order to use Ushi effectively.

The bull pf Itto is very useful.
  • Release Ushi in Burst phase: You should save his elemental skill and wait until the burst mode is available. Then, release the bull after using his elemental burst.
  • Hold and aim to release Ushi: You can hold the Elemental Skill button to aim and release the bull to the wanted target.
  • Use Ushi to distract enemies: Like the pets of Xiangling, Sayu, and Amber, Ushi can distract enemies when it's in the battle. It's very useful in the battle against a large enemy group.

Those are the best tips and Genshin Itto best weapon. You should pull for his highly-recommended weapons when they are available in upcoming banners or collect materials to forge a good claymore for him.
