DPS Kamisato Ayato focuses on doing large amounts of on-field damage with his Skill and Burst.
Try to activate Kamisato Ayato's Burst before using his Skill to maximize his Normal Attack DMG. Getting enough Energy Recharge for this is important, and varies based on team. Since the casting time is so long, it may not be worth snapshotting into buffs.
The amount of slashes Kamisato Ayato can do during an Skill window is sometimes influenced by the player's set FPS.
