This is sooo prettyyy

Our beloved Yang Yang artwork was gorgeous and divine.

What do you think of Tides and Stars Artwork of Yang Yang?

This is a more polished guide from the last one i made, mainly because I want to see both Yangyang and Yangyang SP deal dmg simultaneously while being in the same team (2 Yangyangs are better than one)

♫ Forte Circuit - Melody ♫

Yangyang has 4 different ways of gaining forte stacks:

• 4th basic attack
• Res. Skill
• Intro skill
• Zephyr Song
  • Heavy Attack or Dodge counter + Basic attack = Zephyr Song

At max (3) stacks, she'll gain access to the following attacks, which are stronger relative to their non-enhanced counterparts:

• ‌Heavy Attack/Dodge counter -> Stormy Strike (Considered a heavy attack, does not spend Melody Stacks)
• ‌Mid-air attack -> Feathers Release (Considered a basic attack, spends all Melody Stacks)

♪ Sequence nodes ♪

• S1: A nice +15% Aero DMG bonus upon casting intro skill, which adds up to 23% due to her inherent skill that grants another 8% from the same conditions
• S2: Flat +10 energy after casting a heavy attack, can be triggered once every 20 seconds, not much to say about this one besides being a nice thing to have
• S3: Permanent +40% res. skill dmg bonus. The pulling effect of her attacks is stronger, and the range is expanded by 33%, enhancing her crowd control capabilities
• S4: Feather's Release DMG is increased by 95%. Straight up direct upgrade to her DPS, with this you'd want to make sure to get several basic attack DMG bonuses
• S5: Res. Liberation DMG is increased by 85%. Another upgrade to her DPS to her already strong liberation
• S6: +20% ATK after casting Feather's Release. Extremely valuable, as Yangyang really wants any source of ATK% to make up for her low base atk

⚔︎ Weapons ⚔︎

• 5 stars will be considered as being R1
• 4 stars will be considered as being R5

🌌 Emerald of Genesis [5 star] 🌌

• 587 base atk
• 24.3% Crit Rate
• 12.8% Energy Regeneration
• 6% ATK bonus after casting a resonance skill for 10 seconds
  • She can't gain the two ATK% stacks this weapon can provide, as the cooldown of her resonance skill also lasts for 10 seconds. She can, however, maintain 100% uptime with the 6% ATK bonus

The high base attack of this weapon helps her offset her own low base attack of 250 and the extra energy regen allows her to cast her liberation far more consistently, overall her best in slot.

🌸 Red Spring [5 star] 🌸

• 587 base ATK
• 24.3% Crit Rate
• 12% ATK
• 10% Basic Attack DMG bonus upon casting Basic attacks, up to 30% BA DMG bonus

More focus on the damage that Feather's Release deals while also granting a nice ATK bonus. Sidegrade/minor downgrade relative to Emerald of genesis due to the lack of ER%

🔥 Blazing Brilliance [5 star] 🔥

• +587 base ATK
• +48.6% Crit DMG
• +12% ATK
• +4% Res. Skill dmg bonus after dealing damage (+1 stack) and casting res. skill (+5 stacks), this buff stacks up to 14 times/56% skill DMG bonus*

Partial downgrade compared to the options above since she already has 40% Res. Skill DMG bonus from her S3, this weapon would only bring diminishing returns for an attack that comes once every 10 seconds. However, if you lack said Sequence, if (somehow) it's the only 5 star sword you own and/or if you have an insane Crit Rate echo, you can comfortably use this weapon.

🟣Endless Collapse [4 star]

• +462 Base ATK
• +18.2% ATK
• Gain +10 Flat Energy and 20% ATK after casting res. skill, lasts for 16 seconds. These effects can be retriggered after 20 seconds

"What if Emerald of Genesis gave birth" the weapon. Overall a nice F2P all rounder, granting ATK everywhere with the only downside of having to wait 4 seconds for the ATK% buff to be retriggered.

⚪ Somnoire Anchor [4 star event weapon]

• +462 Base ATK
• +18.2% ATK
• +4% ATK after dealing damage, stacking up to 10 times (1 sec cooldown between each stack gained). At 10 stacks, gain 8% Crit Rate

I'll confidently say this is a downgrade compared to even Endless Collapse, considering she'll take a minimum of 10 seconds to get all of those stacks regardless of how fast she is. 40% Attack and 8% Crit Rate sounds nice but by that time you've also already lost her own 23% Aero DMG bonus from the intro skill.
HOWEVER, this weapon is perfect and better than endless collapse whenever you want to do a solo run with her, since she'll be the only one the team.

၊၊||၊ Sonata sets ၊၊||၊

🍃Sierra Gale (5pc)

• 2pc: 10% Aero DMG bonus
• 5pc: 30% Aero DMG bonus after casting Intro skill

With this set, plus her own +23% Aero DMG bonus, she gains 53% Aero DMG bonus from an intro skill alone, for 8 seconds (+10% permanent Aero DMG bonus).

For the main echo slot, ranked:

1. Nightmare: Feilian Beringal
   • Unconditional 12% Aero DMG bonus and heavy attack DMG bonus. It is also a summon echo, so you can just cast it whenever it's off cooldown for extra damage
2. Feilian Beringal
   • Buffs the same things as N:F.B., except it's conditional now, it requires you to cast the echo skill to gain those buffs
     • Do NOT dash cancel the echo, you have to wait until the monkey slams the massive chunk of tree down to gain the buffs, otherwise you won't get anything.
3. Cyan Feathered Heron
   • This echo doesn't bring any benefits compared to the options above, nor does it have the highest damage option, however, it is a nice burst option for early builds, and you can make great use of its unique parrying properties for attacks with a red flash against specific bosses.

🍃 Windward Pilgrimage

• 2pc: 10% Aero DMG bonus
• 5pc: After hitting an enemy inflicted with Aero Erosion, gain 30% Aero DMG bonus and 10% Crit Rate

Upgrade from Sierra Gale, however you're trading team flexibility for increased personal damage, as only 2 SUPPORT characters so far can apply Aero Erosion, and one of them also depends on another character to even apply Aero Erosion (Aero Rover). If you lack these options or don't want to build them, stick with Sierra Gale.

For the main echo slot, ranked:

1. Nightmare: Kelpie:
   • Kelpie grants an unconditional 12% Aero DMG bonus... and that's it (The glacio dmg bonus might as well not exist). Kelpie also allows Yangyang to have another burst option by casting her outro skill, which will make him deal 405% Aero DMG. This attack is a separate ability from the echo skill button and does not have a cooldown. This burst option makes her stronger in a quickswap setting (Thank you so much u/Severe-Two-8822 for giving me this insight, i legitimately did not know about this). If you plan to use this, only cast the echo skill button once you're about to swap out.
2. Kerasaur:
   • 12% Aero DMG bonus and 12% Liberation DMG bonus, both buffs are something Yangyang heavily benefits from. It also has quite the high damage output, although it comes with the downside of being a transform echo that takes too long to attack as well. If you plan to use this, only cast the echo skill button once you're about to swap out.
3. Reminiscence: Fleurdelys
   • Fleurdelys grants 10% Aero DMG bonus, technically the worst one in terms of both buffing and damage, but it comes with the benefit of being a summon echo that you can just pop whenever you like, only consider using this if it's your best 4-cost echo and you've gotten straight garbage from the options above

🧷Moonlit Clouds — Sub-DPS focused>!(Ik i said this was a main dps guide build, but i felt like i should add this set either way)!<

• 2pc: +10% Energy Regen
• 5pc: After using Outro Skill, increases the ATK of the next Resonator by 22.5% for 15s.

If Yangyang SP ends up scaling off ATK and if you end up pairing her with Yangyang SP, this'll be her best option>!(PLEASE don't, I want to see her scale off HP or literally ANYTHING else so i don't have to convert the hard earned Sierra Gale set that Yangyang 4* has into tubes and tuners)!<

For the main echo slot:

1. Impermanence Heron
   • After casting this echo, if the wielder uses an outro skill, the next character's DMG increases by 12%. Ideal for Yangyang SP hypercarry build
2. Bell-Borne Geochelone
   • After casting this echo, the whole team gains a 10% DMG boost for 15 seconds, disappears earlier if everyone in the team gets collectively hit thrice. Ideal for a dual DPS build with two Yangyangs

🥀2pc/2pc options (Unlucky-Lucky)

Only consider using this if you have absolutely insane echoes from different sets or if you're planning to do a solo challenge with her.

2pc combination options:

• Sierra Gale (+10% Aero DMG)
• Windward Pilgrimage (+10% Aero DMG)
• Gusts of Welkin (+10% Aero DMG)
• Sound of True name (+10% Aero DMG)
• Lingering Tunes (+10% ATK, last resort option)
• Reel of Spliced Memores (+10% ATK, last resort option)
• Moonlit clouds (+10% Energy Regen, last[er] resort option)

In all 2pc + 2pc scenarios, for the main echo slot:

1. Lady of the Sea
   • Similarly to Kerasaur, she grants an unconditional 12% Aero DMG bonus and 12% Liberation DMG bonus, both buffs are something Yangyang heavily benefits from. This echo also grants another traction option into her kit upon casting it, further expanding her crowd control options
2. Reminiscence: Fenrico
   • This is essentially another Nightmare: Feilian Beringal; 12% Aero DMG bonus and 12% Heavy Attack DMG bonus, and they both deal nearly the same amount of damage.
3. Any other echo that grants Aero DMG bonus
   • Since 2pc + 2pc sets are flexible, any echo that grants an Aero DMG bonus will do just fine in the main echo slot.

🦚Echo setup (for all scenarios): 43311

• 4 cost: Crit Rate/DMG
  • If Crit DMG weapon -> Crit Rate echo
  • If Crit Rate weapon -> Crit DMG echo
  • If no crit weapon -> Crit Rate echo
• 3 cost: Aero DMG bonus
• 3 cost: ATK% or Aero DMG bonus (It'll depend on your build, but preferably go for an ATK% echo)
  • If you're running moonlit clouds, you can also (very rarely) consider an energy regen% echo
• 1 cost echo: ATK%
• 1 cost echo: ATK%

🦚Ideal echo substats:

• Crit Rate
• Crit DMG
• ATK%
• Energy Regen% (Ideally, you'd want her to have +130% ER)
• Basic Attack DMG bonus
• Res. Liberation DMG bonus
• Flat ATK

👥Teammates

• Healer.

☘️ Ciaconna ☘️

• +24% Aero DMG bonus.
• +15% Aero DMG bonus (From the Gusts of Welkin set).
  • Since Ciaconna can inflict Aero Erosion, Yangyang can comfortably use the Windward Pilgrimage set.
• Applies a debuff that removes 10% Aero RES from enemies (From her signature weapon).

✦ F2P Options ✦:

Verina: >!(Veri-FRAUD)!<

  • Since Aero Rover can inflict Aero Erosion, Yangyang can comfortably use the Windward Pilgrimage set.
    • HOWEVER, Aero Rover has to CONVERT existing negative status effects that are already inflicted on the enemy into Aero Erosion, so he requires another character that can apply another negative status effect that isn't Aero Erosion. The most accesible option will be Buling; if you don't have anyone else who can inflict negative status, stick with Rej. Glow instead.
• Sub-DPS and Healer

☯️ Buling ☯️

Pairing both of them together gives you the benefit of learning the art of quickswapping without spending a dime.

📄Tips

These tips come from my own personal experience by playing Yangyang as a main DPS for several patches in a row, feel free to add more.

• Yangyang's max dps window lasts for 8 seconds, this is due to her already mentioned 23% Aero DMG bonus buff lasting for that long, therefore it is generally better to slot her in a quickswap team.
• Fastest way of getting 3 forte stacks, assuming you're starting from 0, is:
  1. Intro skill -> Plunge attack (+1)
  2. Res. Skill (+1)
  3. Heavy Attack -> Zephyr Song (+1)
• To get the most amount of damage in the shortest amount of time, do the following rotation:
  • Intro skill
  • Plunge Attack (Ignore if you have max forte stacks)
  • Cast Skill
  • Heavy attack into Zephyr Song (Ignore if you have max forte stacks)
  • Cast Liberation
  • Jump
  • Cast Feathers Release
  • Outro Skill
• Cast Feathers Release (If available) while her Res. Liberation is still active to squeeze in as much damage as possible.
  • In a quickswap team, if possible, try to outro skill after casting Feather's Release. This is due to Yangyang not having any sort of interruption resistance built in her kit; swapping out while Feather's Release animation is still going gives her that kind of universal pseudo-interruption resistance

QueenYang tops every other character in game easily, no diff

She really looks like her and am astonished, wuthering waves is doing great job with the expy units...

Seems like a collab outfit leak. But omg Yangyang is gorgeous, both are!

The previously mentioned Shoryuken like move in Yangyang's gameplay is the Rising Dragon in the image.

Take it with a grain of salt.
It's most likely AI, but to give us an idea of what to expect.

They said the below with it attached;

Yangyang SP and Suisui will have special intro outro voicelines for each other, just like IUNO-Augusta.

Yangyang SP has a shoryuken like move in her gameplay (Pls note STC)
