Yanqing build

Equipment options · Main stats · Team examples

Your build plan

For Yanqing, compare In the Night while keeping the recommended CRIT DMG · Speed >= ATK% · Ice DMG >= ATK% setup fixed. A weapon or set change is easier to judge when you do not also change the team and skill timing.

Equipment options

Team examples

A lineup is a starting point: check that each teammate is available and that your team can repeat its resource cycle. Replacing a unit also changes buff timing and defensive coverage.

GACHABUILDS

Test your setup

Balance critical rate with critical damage. A large damage number is less useful when critical hits are inconsistent; evaluate the complete setup rather than a single item.

Choose one option, run the same encounter twice, and change one variable. Record whether the next rotation starts on time and whether the team survives without losing its damage window.
