Your build plan

For Yao Guang, compare When She Decided to See while keeping the recommended CRIT DMG > CRIT Rate · Speed · HP% > DEF% 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.

Keep the recommended defensive stat when the character scales with it. An offensive-looking replacement can reduce both survivability and the contribution expected from this setup.

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.
