HIGH ENERGY REQUIREMENTS (OFF-FIELD DPS) Build 👍

Yelan is an off-field DPS who is able to apply Hydro via her Elemental Burst, this part of her kit acts similarly to Xingqiu's Elemental Burst. Yelan mainly scales off HP%, so don't build her with ATK%. Yelan also wants a lot of Energy Recharge to be able to maintain her Elemental Burst uptime, this can decrease depending on the number of Hydro units or energy providers in the team. Regarding Weapon Choices: Elegy for the End: This weapon is to be used only in reaction based comps such as Vape Hu Tao, Yelan's personal damage is lower than other options on this list, but is more beneficial for the team's damage per rotation. Mouun's Moon: This weapon works best at [R3+] and makes HP% Goblet potentially a stronger option instead of Hydro Bonus especially in comps with strong DMG% buffs. Sacrificial Bow: This ideally needs to be at refinement [R3-R5] to function properly in most Yelan teams rotations without desyncing the rotation and extending her field time. Aqua Simulacra: Can still perform well at high Energy Recharge as long as your minimum Energy Recharge requirements are met. Hunter's Path / Polar Star / Thundering Pulse: These weapons are very potent on Yelan being some of her best DPS weapons, but she doesn't take full advantage of them. It is recommended to use them on characters who benefit more from their passives. Regarding Artifact Main Stats: Goblet: HP% Goblet is to be used only if the Hydro DMG% option has terrible substats and HP% option has great substats, or if Yelan has strong DMG% buffs such as Emblem of Severed Fate (4) + Mouun's Moon (especially with refinements) or Raiden + Kazuha and so on. On top of that it's never recommended to run more than 2 HP% mainstat artifacts at a time. Regarding Talent Priority: Normal Attacks: Level this up only if you want to constantly use her Breakthrough Barbs. Big thanks to Vladone ツ#9281 and jstern25#1399 from Yelan Mains for helping us with the calculations.

Talents
Normal Attack: Stealthy Bowshot

Normal Attack: Stealthy Bowshot

Normal Attack
Performs up to 4 consecutive shots with a bow.

Charged Attack
Perform a more precise Aimed Shot with increased DMG.
While aiming, flowing water will accumulate on the arrowhead. A fully charged torrential arrow will deal Hydro DMG.

Breakthrough
Yelan will enter a "Breakthrough" state after spending 5s out of combat, which will cause her next Charged Aimed Shot to have 80% decreased charge time, and once charged, she can fire a "Breakthrough Barb" that will deal AoE Hydro DMG based on Yelan's Max HP.

Plunging Attack
Fires off a shower of arrows in mid-air before falling and striking the ground, dealing AoE DMG upon impact.

Lingering Lifeline

Lingering Lifeline

Fires off a Lifeline that allows her to move rapidly, entangling and marking opponents along its path.
When this rapid movement ends, the Lifeline will explode, dealing Hydro DMG to the marked opponents based on Yelan's Max HP.

Tap
Moves a certain distance forward swiftly.

Hold
Engages in continuous, swift movement, during which Yelan's resistance to interruption is increased.
During this time, Yelan can control this rapid movement and end it by using this Skill again.

Additionally, each opponent marked by the Lifeline when it explodes grants Yelan a 34% chance to reset her Breakthrough state.

Not until she begins to tug on the strings do evildoers, crooks, and scheming villains alike know that there is no escape.

Depth-Clarion Dice

Depth-Clarion Dice

Deals AoE Hydro DMG and creates an "Exquisite Throw," which aids her in battle.

Exquisite Throw
Follows the character around and will initiate a coordinated attack under the following circumstances, dealing Hydro DMG based on Yelan's Max HP:
- Can occur once every second when your active character uses a Normal Attack.
- Will occur each time Yelan's Lifeline explodes and hits opponents.

"A gambling addiction is going to do you no good. I mean, let me just do the math for you as the dealer. What do you think your odds of beating me are, when I have seven dice and you, only one?"

The Mastermind state lasts 20s and will be cleared after Yelan fires 5 arrows.
