Husk of Opulent Dreams

  • The Husk of Opulent Dreams is an artifact set designed for Geo characters whose abilities scale with Defense, a perfect match for Arataki itto.
  • Arataki Itto damage will increase with the extra 30% DEF and the additional Geo DMG.
  • If you wish for the Redhorn Stonetresher, focus on DEF stats, otherwise Crit. DMG and ATK are the ideal secondaries.

Archaic Petra

Unfortunately, Arataki and Kuki Shinobu don't have a great synergy. The best squad for Itto is still a team full of Geo Characters.

Mono Geo Team

As the name indicates, this team focuses on characters from the Geo Element. Overall it is a very strong team against single targets like bosses.

The team doesn't depend on Elemental Reactions, but they can take advantage of a character with healing or defense shred.

Main DPS

  • Arataki Itto is the best DPS for this team, he benefits from the kit of most Geo supports.

Sub-DPS

  • Albedo & Zhongli compliment Itto very well, even when both are different, both have a similar DMG output. Therefore, if you have both, you can include them in the team.

Elemental Enabler

  • Gorou is a character whose main role is to make Geo teams viable.
  • With that, Gorou is the best partner for Itto, though he is not viable outside of Mono Geo teams.
    • Alternatives: Yunjin, Ningguang, Zhongli (Support Build)

Support

  • Even when the team is all about the Geo element, there are great benefits in adding a healer against corrosion.
  • Swirl reactions with a Viridescent Artifact Set reduce the defense of enemies. That means characters like Kazuha and Sucrose can add a lot to this team.
  • Kujou, Sara, and Bennet are also good attack boosters.
