C0 Ayaka The Black Sword VS Blackcliff Longsword – Genshin Impact



An updated comparison between C0 Ayaka using The Black Sword VS Blackcliff Longsword. Both weapons are refinement 1 (r1), level 90. In both the clips shown, C0 Ayaka crits harder with Blackcliff but less frequently than the Black Sword, which crits much more frequently but does less damage on her elemental burst. This is a side by side comparison between C0 Ayaka wielding The Black Sword vs Blackcliff Longsword on Pyro Regisvine test, two of the best 4 star weapons for Ayaka.

  2. so the blackliff better than blacksword? the blackliff pasive seems conditional but the cdmg helps it better. but im curious, how about the aa and charged attack against boss? is blackliff still better? i want to try black sword but crit rate already helped by cryo resonance and 4pc blizzard but the blackcliff pasive too conditional need to kill mobs first. thank if anyone give me an answer

  3. Wow thanks for the test. I see in cases where the target can be frozen/crowd of enemy, Blackcliff is stronger, whereas when facing big bosses or enemies with elemental armor that cannot be frozen or Iced, the black sword is more useful. I will choose the black sword because of the stability in the build

  4. With my testing… Ayaka 90/90 – Talents 8-8-8 ( 4 piece blizzard but different sub-stats depending on the weapon to maintain good crits)
    .
    Black Sword R1 – 1750 ATK – 38 Crit Rate – 226 Crit Damage
    Blackcliff R1 – 1788 ATK – 34 Crit Rate + 268 Crit Damage
    .
    Blacksword dealt better damage with Auto Attacks and Charged Attacks + the healing is nice to have.
    Blackcliff dealt less damage with AA / ChA but with two or more stacks it outdamaged the black sword + it dealt a lot more damage to her Skill and Burst.
    .
    TL:DR : Blackcliff is better overall, as it deals a lot more damage using her Skill and Burst. With more than 2 stacks, it deals more damage in AA / CHa than the Black Sword.
    Hope it helps somebody.

    EDIT: with a couple more days of testing, i found out that an ATK Circlet is much better than a Crit Damage Circlet, when you already have more than 190+ of Crit DMG.

    Using the Black Sword + ATK Circlet (2058 ATK – 47 Crit Rate – 195 Crit Damage) I had like 10-15% more damage instead of the Crit DMG Circlet.

    Using the Blackcliff + ATK Circlet (2188 ATK – 28 Crit Rate – 219 Crit DMG) I had 15-20% more damage (without stacks. Asuming 3 stacks, it can outdamage 5 star weapons).

    The thing to consider is the consistency of the crit rates. I recommend at least 35% Crit Rate if running 4 piece Blizzard + Cryo Resonance. With my only 28 Crit Rate on the Blackcliff build, my average damage is a bit lower against the black sword.
