Yelan is Genshin Impact's newest 5-star character, and she definitely pulls her weight in a battle. She can crowd control enemies and generate a ton of energy with her Elemental Skill. She can also deal a ton of damage and apply Hydro to foes with her Elemental Burst. Due to her burst persisting off-screen, Yelan will become an invaluable member of many of the game's best teams. Here are some of her best traits in the game:
5) Easy to build
Thanks to Yelan scaling off of HP for almost all of her damage, players can focus on maximizing HP% and Crit stats on all of their artifacts. This can make building Yelan much easier, as fans can use many of the artifacts that they would have otherwise passed on due to high HP substats.
4) Synergy with Dendro reactions
As a result of her ability to deal Hydro damage from both off-screen and on-screen, Yelan will be an amazing character to use with the game's latest set of Dendro Elemental Reactions. The Overgrown Reaction is triggered by the combination of Hydro and Dendro, causing a mushroom to spawn on the ground that will bloom into a burst of AOE Dendro damage. With Yelan's constant Hydro application, she will be a potent choice for utilizing this reaction type in battle.
3) Incredible buffs
Yelan provides buffs not only to herself, but also to the party she is paired with. Her first self-buff, Turn Control, will allow her to increase her overall damage just by being paired with more Elemental types, which is perfect for National style teams. Her 'Adapt With Ease' passive boosts the damage of the active character on the field as long as her Elemental Burst is active.
Thanks to her burst persisting while she is off-field, it can be applied to a powerful damage carry like Raiden Shogun, allowing her to increase her damage significantly. Many of Genshin Impact's strongest carries will benefit a lot from this buff.
2) Off-field Hydro Application
Yelan's Elemental Burst is the biggest part of her kit, and makes her invaluable to any team that relies on Hydro reactions. Her burst creates an Exquisite Throw, a floating die that will deal coordinated Hydro attacks to enemies when players attack. This is very similar to Xingqiu's Elemental Burst, and it persists even when Yelan switches out. This can be used for many Elemental Reactions like Freeze, Vaporize, Electrocharged, and more.
1) Team flexibility
Yelan offers players the ability to flex other Hydro support in their teams, opening the chance to play multiple reaction-based compositions in the Spiral Abyss. This is a huge benefit, as many of the game's strongest teams are based on Hydro reactions. Many players wished they were able to fit Xingqiu into two teams in the Spiral Abyss, and with the addition of Yelan, they will finally be able to do so in the game.
Genshin Impact's newest 5-star character offers a ton of options and flexibility, making her an amazing choice for many teams.
