Yanfei Wish & Constellation Guide

Should You Get Or Wish For Yanfei?

Pull If You Need A DPS

Yanfei

Yanfei is a Pyro DPS that can deal constant damage with her normal & charge attacks. Her 4th constellation can shield the active character when using elemental burst. Even if Yanfei's constellation improves her abilities, it is not recommended to aim for Yanfei when pulling unless Yanfei's rate is boosted.

Best Constellation For Yanfei

Constellation 1 Stamina Cost Reduction

All Catalyst characters suffers from huge stamina needed to deal Charge Attack. With the constellation 1 of Yanfei, you can reduce that stamina needed depending on the number of Scarlet Seals you have.

Constellation 4 Allows Yanfei To Be A Shielder

Constellation 4 gives an Elemental Shield to Yanfei every time she uses Elemental Burst making her a good shielder for the team.

Go For CR/CD Weapons

As a main DPS, it's important to build CR/CD before anything else. Having a CR/CD weapon will make it easier for you and will make Artifact building less restricting. If you don't have a CR/CD weapon, an ATK% weapon will do.

For Yanfei Fans:
Don't be offended she's C, she can do charge attack per 2 secs with 48k damage to area,
While Neuvillette do 65k per 0.5s in a huge area..

It's not yanfei is bad, It's just at her max C6, it's her ceiling and other limited banner DPS dmg just too huge even at C0

I would say, she's A tier dps character. Team her with xingqui and layla and it's reaction galore. She can be built with lower investment as you can leave her skill and burst until lvl 6 only and she's still good normal + charged attack dps that can trigger reactions.

The guy beneath me: I FUCKING LOVE U, thought i was the only 1 that thought like that

Anonymous 17

Anonymous 16

The Eye of Perception is a good option for her.
