Uses Of Yaoyao's Elemental Skill
Elemental Skill Summons A Bunny That Heals & Attacks
For Elemental Skill, Yaoyao summons a bunny that throws radish to enemies. It deals damage to the enemy while healing when you are close to the radish.
The Bunny Targets The Player When Players Have Low HP
The Bunny mainly targets the enemies but when a player with less than 75% HP is within its area, it will target that player.
Uses Of Yaoyao's Elemental Burst
Elemental Burst Summons 3 Bunnies At The Same Time
Elemental Burst summons 3 Rabbits instead of 1 that attacks the opponents and heal the team.
Elemental Burst Disappears Once Yaoyao Is Off-Field
The 3 raddish-throwing rabbits will disappear once Yaoyao leaves the field so make sure to not quickly switch out when using Yaoyao's Elemental Burst.
Provides Additional Buff To Yaoyao
The following buff will be given to Yaoyao after using Elemental Burst. This will also disappear upon leaving the field.
- Movement Speed +15%
- Dendro Resistance + 50%
- Yaoyao throw Raddish during Jump or Dash (After unlocking Starscatter)
Should You Pull for Yaoyao's Constellation Or Best Weapon?
All of Yaoyao's Constellations are Good to Have
| Constellation Priority |
|---|
| C6 > C4 > C2 |
C6 is Ideal But Not Necessary
Yaoyao starts off at C0 with an already strong baseline in terms of healing, making all her constellations desirable, but not important for her to function well as a supportive character. C6 is her best constellation since it further boosts the healing in her Burst mode, which her specific teams are likely to appreciate. C2 and C4 are good stopping points if you want to pull for Yaoyao specifically since it makes getting her Burst up a little easier, but going all the way to C6 can be considered if you have the means to do so.
Yaoyao's Constellations & Effects
| Rating | Constellation Effect |
|---|---|
| ★★★・・ | C1: Adeptus's Tutelage When White Jade Radishes explode, active characters within their AoE will gain 15% Dendro DMG Bonus for 8s and have 15 Stamina restored to them. This form of Stamina Restoration can only be triggered every 5s. |
| ★★★★・ | C2: Innocent While affected by the Adeptal Legacy state caused by Moonjade Descent, if White Jade Radish explosions hit opponents, 3 Energy will be restored to Yaoyao. This form of Energy regeneration can occur once every 0.8s. |
| ★★★・・ | C3: Loyal Kind Increases the Level of Raphanus Sky Cluster by 3. Maximum upgrade level is 15. |
| ★★★★・ | C4: Winsome After using Raphanus Sky Cluster or Moonjade Descent, Yaoyao's Elemental Mastery will be increased based on 0.3% of her Max HP for 8s. The maximum Elemental Mastery she can gain this way is 120. |
| ★★★・・ | C5: Compassionate Increases the Level of Moonjade Descent by 3. Maximum upgrade level is 15. |
| ★★★★★ | C6: Beneficent For every 2 White Jade Radishes Yuegui: Throwing Mode throws out, the next throw will also release a Mega Radish that will have a larger AoE than the standard White Jade Radish and have the following effects upon exploding: - Deals AoE Dendro DMG based on 75% of Yaoyao's ATK - Restores HP for the active character based on 7.5% of Yaoyao's Max HP Every Yuegui: Throwing Mode can throw out a maximum of 2 Mega Radishes. |

Yuegui: Throwing Mode
| Effect |
|---|
| Throws out White Jade Radishes that will explode upon hitting characters or opponents, dealing Dendro DMG to opponents within a certain AoE, and healing characters within that same AoE based on Yaoyao's Max HP. If a radish does not hit either an opponent or a character, the radish will remain where it is and explode on contact with a character or opponent, or will explode after its duration expires. Yuegui: Throwing Mode will choose its radish-throw targets. ・If all nearby characters have more than 70% HP remaining, then it will throw the radish at a nearby opponent. ・If nearby characters have 70% or less HP remaining, it will throw a radish at the character with the lowest HP percentage remaining. If no opponents exist nearby, Yuegui will throw White Jade Radishes at characters even if they all have more than 70% HP remaining. A maximum of 2 instances Yuegui: Throwing Mode can exist at any one time. |
