Let me guess what's going to be said without watching the video: 1. Amazing character 2. Top meta 3. The best element 4. Works almost in every team 5. Pairs great with other hydro units 6. You don't need many hydro 7. Pull value depends on the characters you already have 8. Pull if you want, don't if you don't want (as per usual)

You are drastically overvaluing how important Aqua Simulacra is for the teams damage. Aqua increases Yelans personal damage by around 30%, not team damage. For Aqua to increase the teams damage by 30%, it would need to increase Yelans personal damage by like 90%, which is simply not happening.

@@tradingcomparisons6591ofc it is. it a signature for a reason. but if youre sacrificing her burst uptime for that, is it still worth it over her cons?
@@tradingcomparisons6591 Yelan's personal damage is still amazing without her sig weapon. Having Fav bow with HP sands is more valuable tho. If you use her weapon, you might need ER sands, which will result in low max hp.
I pulled c1 Yelan when I came back to the game not long before her first rerun and she has never left my overworld team since I honestly don't think I could play Genshin without her anymore 😂
Yelan is still a very universal hydro character, but then, so is Xingqiu and Furina. Hydro is such a top-tier element that you could really get almost anything off the menu and still be eating good. I have no regrets about getting c1 Yelan on release.
Pretty hard to disagree with the points here. She's still a top tier unit, but the only problem is Furina is really THAT good and Neuvillette is an absolute monster as well. Despite being able to make some of the strongest teams in the game, a good portion of them are slightly stronger with a Furina variant. I'd say Hu Tao, Arlecchino, and Kokomi still really want her, but she isn't really needed on any other teams at this point. I think a reaction focused hyperbloom team is overrated, and think quickbloom teams with characters like Al Haitham and Furina are the much better option so she's once again not meta for that, even though she does do quite well in the role. If you like Yelan, I absolutely think she's worth it and the QOL of her skill and not needing to play around Furina's HP mechanics make her very comfy to have on your account. She's similar to a good DPS character in pull recommendations rather than the basically universal supports like Kazuha, Zhongli, and Furina.
I still don't understand this comparison between neuvillette and yelan because yelan having hydro application is valuable neuvillette on the other hand really just care about his damage he might as well be a geo character and nothing will change much since his best teams are the one that Focus on his damage not hydro app Neuvillette is a on field dps character he has no business being considered the same as yelan or furina no matter how good he is he is still just a dps and they come and go
Yeah, Neuvi and Yelan have only 1 thing in common: damage. One is off field and other one is on field. Hydro doesnt mean anything for Neuvi cuz its all about his raw dmg. Like stop saying hes good cuz hes hydro, like bruh, he could like u said geo and still be this strong cuz what are we procing when using him? Low ass dmg 0 em bloom with baizhu? 💀💀 while Yelan gives super good off field consistant dmg, dmg buff to on fielder and amazing hydro app. If we speak about account value then Yelan all the way
Yelan is my "I'm going to eventually C6" character. Every time she's appeared, I've gotten a constellation. I'm up to C3 (got a miracle double last time.) Might just go all the way this time around. I have the pulls available and I'm not itching to get anyone from Natlan.
Some people be telling me that I shouldn't pull for Yelan because "she's just like a 2nd Xingqiu" BRUH I WILL BE PULLING FOR HER BECAUSE OF THAT REASON. BECAUSE SHE IS A BROKEN CHARACTER LIKE XINGQIU
@@ivanestrabo7952 I got here for my mono hydro team. I used Ayato, Furina, Xingqiu and Jean but swapped Xingqiu out for her, so that I can now use mono hydro on one side of the abyss and Xingqiu with my Al Haitham on the other side. Gotta say, the team feels even better now and having two really strong off field hydro appliers is really useful for me personally. If you dont have Xingqiu C6 i highly recommend her and if you do have him C6, I still recommend her if you have another good place for your Xingqiu.
Yes. I have her C1, XQ and furina. The thing is, she's SPEED. She will save you LOTS OF YOUR TIME. And besides she's strong, every constellation is good, etc.
I also habe xinqui n i love him but yelan is not only OP for DMG, she also is very very good for overworld Her Skill is fast n u recover stamina while running Ur invinsible while Skill And She is bow User, so easy for Shooting Puzzel
i have a c2r1 yelan and she will never leave my team. but objectively comparing c2 yelan with xinqiu, plus for yelan is only more damage and mobility. makes me realize how broken xinqiu is.
I strongly agree with you, and - because I already have C2 Furina and C6 Xingqiu - I will postpone getting myself Yelan as an f2p player for the time being, partly because I want to C1 my Neuvilette and C2 Nahida first, parly because her current banner has mediocre 4 stars besides Xiangling (mine is already C4, so...), partly because I want to see what's cooking with Natlan first, especially Mauvika and the Pyro Archon. That being said the opposite reasoning can also be made: knowing how strong a C6 Xingqiu is makes me realise how freaking strong Yelan is. And Abyss needs 2 teams and Hydro is always in very high demand; and now Imaginarium Theater as well. It's just the same argument as "Kazuha is just a glorified 5 star Sucrose"; sure, correct, so what...? Sucrose is already great, Kazuha is busted.
@@Exacerberus yep! But still, we can run fast with yelan though. I’ve been playing for 4 years and mobility is really valuable for me. Since i can already clear abyss.
5:26 as Someone who dosent have Kazuha, Running Kokomi/Yelan/Xingue/Furina was some of the fastest Kokomi clears I had, next to 3xEm+Fragments kokomi with Nilou superbloom.
So excited to finally get her! I started playing right at the time her banner came in Fontaine. Unfortunately, I had no clue how amazing she was, but I’m definitely going to get her this time!
Got me convinced to get her because I don't have the Neuvillette but have Hu Tao(C0) and Xianyun(C1). The plunging makes it so much easier to play Hu Tao since I have her at C0 lol Great Video^^
I find this statement strange: "There's never been must pull characters, but the amount of must pull characters is so low nowadays." EDIT: It seems like my intentions in pointing out this statement were unclear (which is understandable as I did not expand on my idea loll). Basically, I wanted to point out the contradiction within the statement itself: How could there be a *"Low amount of must pull characters nowadays"* if there *"has never been"* a must pull character? ;)
Yeah, what exactly is a MUST PULL character at this point? It becomes a useless distinction if you try and play the "Well they're good, but do you have to have them?" card. I'd prefer if he stopped using it because it gets annoying after a while. Just stick with calling them high value units or something.
@@noob.69sbnah Kazuha maybe (but still one of the best characters) definitely not nahida. She basically makes hyperbloom. Her dendro application is basically unchallenged.
@@baizhu By replaceable I don't mean the same amount of performance but more than 80% of her utility if you use any 2 dendro teams. Plus she is not even bis in a lot of dendro teams.
I pulled for Yelan after one of your previous videos (I had thought she just wasn't something I needed). She has been one of my most used characters since. For me I'm very glad you changed my mind.
this, I can't believe some people are saying to skip her just because furina exists Furina is nice, but Yelan gets more actual abyss usage for me. I've used Yelan in every single abyss since I pulled her, and she's the only character I have used 100% of the time. She's not even my favorite character, she's just that good.
I only use her for exploration, mono hydro and also when hydro is part of the theatre. Should you pick her up? Hard to say. But if you have designs on Natlan, I personally deem her one of the easiest skips of your life. On the flipside, if you want to build into either older or current teams at the time of writing, she's a decent pickup.
Can’t wait! I’m gonna get her and just realised I have a lot of her best teams so I’ll defo check those out! Thank you for your guides they really help me!
Before watching: The only reason I can imagine that'd lower her value is Furina existing. That's it. For artifacts: I've seen a Yelan running around with a full HP build on a Golden Troupe set. Her skill hit like a truck. Definietly a quirky and not an optimal build if you want her for off-field support, but it was a funny and functional build nontheless. My only issue with Yelan is, that I don't have any pyro on-field DPS with high attack speed to pair with her. My only on-field Pyro carry is Diluc. (I mean there's also Gaming, who's budget Diluc, and Xinyan who's budget Gaming, and Yanfei who's not built at all, similarly to the other 2 4 stars I just mentioned) I do have Yelan on my Clorinde team though. Not that I use that team much now that she reached friendship 10, but she's a pretty great carry and works really well with Yelan and Furina both. (That team: Clorinde, Nahida, Yelan, Furina) She's also on my Raiden Hyperbloom team, which is, probably not surprising, basically the same exact team, just with a different on-field carry. Out of the 2 teams I tried with Navia, one of the best ones was Navia/Zhongli/Xiangling/Bennett, which I have saved as a team, while the other one was Navia/Zhongli/Yelan/Furina, so even for that team I'd give a good recommendation for her. While I do appreciate her skill for exploration, I never really relied on that. And since I have Xianyun, who I got on C1 by accident, I don't even use Yelan for overworld movement most of the time. I did use both on the team for a while, but my Yelan is C0 not C1, so my C1 Xianyun simply outclassed her in that regard. TLDR: Yelan is great, the only reason her value went down is that characters who do parts of what she does slightly better came out. With the names of Furina and Xianyun. (Mostly Furina)
I just got Navia and I'm having a blast using her to drive double hydro. It can be yelan, furina and Bennett of circle imoact isn't a problem or yelan, Furina and any teamwide healer. Both works great and lead to a comfy clear. I definitely recommend this team.
This is a rare time where the weapon banner is actually worth pulling for once. Aqua works great with almost everyone; The polearm is still a decent stat stick; and I need refinements for my Wandering Evenstar.
@@bancy1527 Off the top of my head: Arlecchino, Xiangling, Hutao. If you pair them with a dendro unit, they can also take advantage of the bonus energy though you may be better off just using fav if you have energy issues. Keep in mind that it's still just a cope stat stick if you literally don't have anything else. In my case though, I managed to get Aqua in just 20 pulls and not once did I get copies of Wandering Evenstar so...... 🤷♀
I don´t understand, that Furina and Yelan replacing each other. I can run Neuvilette + Furina on one side and Xingqui + Yelan on the other side. And still want Kokomi + Nilou... And new Accounts getting so much primos, shuld just pull who is first. And Exploration, Speed + bow always in my team
Yelan completely changed my account before i used to think xingque can be played in replace of her but after the realisation that my c6 properly builted xingque cant out dps random 5 artifact sets on c0 yelan thats when i understand the difference between 5* and 4*. People will still argue that xingque can replace but i have never and ever touch xingque after that and probably will never have to do lol. The difference is just too much and funny fact i never even bother to build her bc of that its just 5 random piece of artifacts doing so much dmg, crazy shit of a character.yelan and kazuha literally changed my quality of life in genshin impact. So much utility + application insane units. I know some people will say u should get whatever u want but some characters just make the quality of life so much easier than others that there's not even an option of saying "NO".
Also c6 xinqiu has 36% more hydro than yelan, not an opinion just a fact. Count their icd, adding on you don't need to pull for yelan. Nahida, kazuha, furina all have much more value.
@@AlwaysThirstysno they absolutely do not. Yelans gap over xinqui is absolutely large even if you have him a five star weapon. She’s that much stronger
@@AlwaysThirstys XQ and yelans dmg os only close if XQ gets external buffs like totm and noblesse. If yelan can do 2Es per rotation, yelans dmg is higher even if XQ gets those buffs. In teams where xq cant get those buffs, Yelans dmg is significantly higher. XQs extra hydro app dosnt matter to 99% of the meta teams. All the vape carries (including hutao) can work with Furina or Yelans hydro app. The best dendro teams (Quickbloom and Nilou) prefer Furina, Yelan and Kokomi over XQ. Best taser teams use Yelan + Furina. XQ is literally not BiS in any team except sucrose national atm.
i agree, yelan is a great great character but we just have too many hydro units now. All of them who can do just fine and help you clear abbyss. Coming from a former yelan main
I always forget to use her burst...which is frustrating when I realize I should have used it. Apparently I need to reconfigure her artifacts, because I've got her with 2pc/2pc Tenacity/Vourukasha; which means she's at 41k HP, but seems that's not the best way to use her. The 3* bow is the Recurve Bow, which gives you 46.9% HP at level 90, and heals Yelan for 8-16% when she kills something, which isn't an insignificant amount when you get her HP up.
getting yelan for me is a must pull even tho i have furina and c6 xingqiu bc i always get stressed out on choosing where to put xingqiu and furina on each side of the abyss bc i main hu tao and i need that double hydro. getting yelan for me will solve all my problems in team building right now and defenitely in the future. in the end of the day they are the best 3 off field hydro characters why not get them all.
Yelan was my first 5-star and later I got Neuvillette C1. I almost pulled Furina until they announced Navia’s rerun, so the hydro problem applied for me except I was skipping Furina instead of Yelan. Navia was so worth it.
I made a lazy Gaming team with Yelan, Furina and bird lady. Always getting the vapes is really nice and frees up Bennet for the other team. I always get really fast clears with this team
Got her by accident in my 1st 10 pull during her Fontaine banner. She was my 2nd 5 star didn't want her since people say she's just a 5 star Xingqiu. Looking back at it, I got lucky she came home that day.
I've had Aqua since Yelan's release but didn't manage to get Yelan then. It was a weird situation. I'm going for her now, since while I have Furina and C6 Xingqiu, XQ is basically glued to my hyperbloom team and Furina is wanted basically everywhere. There's never enough hydro for me.
Since we are talking about Yelan, here's my Hu Tao main DPS team, and I've been using it since almost 2 years for constantly clearing one half of the Abyss: *Yelan (C2R1) *Mona (C2, but C1 does the trick, although C4 makes things even better; She uses 4PC Tenacity of the Milelith) *Zhongli (C0; He uses 4PC Instructor) *Hu Tao (C1R1) First things first, it may not be the cheapest team around considering that all units are 5 stars (with the respective limited weapons for Yelan and Hu Tao) and it has 3 Constellations between 2 limited characters... ...However, Hu Tao doesn't need her C1 for damage and Yelan was featured alongside Hu Tao, so I was able to get the signature weapons for both characters at the same time; On top of that, R5 Dragon's Bane is pretty close to R1 Homa anyways and Yelan doesn't need her weapon in order to offer decent support capabilities either, so C2R0 Yelan (R5 Favonius Warbow) and C0R0 Hu Tao (R5 Dragon's Bane) should be able to deliver more than 80% of their "premium" versions, no doubt. Second, this team uses Zhongli and Mona like no other one does, because vape is the only transformative reaction that Mona can buff with her C1 and Zhongli offers the fattest amount of damage increase when using instructor, but again, that only works for teams which can use Elemental Mastery to its fullest.
Yelan is broken for highly invested accounts or whale accounts, or those generally interested in high DPS & low survivability gameplay. She increases damage ceilings, and makes speedrunning feel satisfying. Wouldn't recommend her until AFTER you have Furina for F2P.
She had had always been better than XQ, but you’re expected to have a C6 XQ if you’re a long time player, but there’s no comparison as you get Yelan constellations.
I'm in a weird case where I don't need Yelan, because my 2 best abyss teams don't even use my C6 Xingqiyu Neuvillette/Furina/Kazuha team doesn't synergize with Yelan, and the other team is Raiden Hyper with Chevreuse 2 other teams I use are Neuvillette/Furina/Nahida/Kuki and Nilou Bloom Even though I really wanna have Yelan, imma have to skip her this time..
i recently got nilou and im left with only 30 pulls and dont think i will have enought time to get her..but she came home just after 30 pulls and won my 50/50...im so glad
Super great video. Really informative. Coming back to the game after 2 years it's changed a lot. 1. Question. Where'd you get those statues in the back of your video? They look incredible
@@tacotube8568crit rate% and the skill is If a Normal or Charged Attack hits a target within 0.3s of being fired, increases DMG by 36%. Otherwise, decreases DMG by 10%.
Probably her boobs and ampits discombobulated you and you didn't realise they have exactly the same cut and hair colour... If anything Yelan is hotter but Xingqiu is girlier inside.
She's still universal tho, her buff is viable for any DPS since its Bonus Dmg. In terms of Flexible Hydro Sub Dps, Furina>Yelan>Xingqiu, only because Xingqiu doesn't have that buff that Furina and Yelan offers but on the other side Xingqiu has the best hydro application compared to them.
Yelan is a character i loved so much i sort of played her too much, still bring her out sometimes but i feel like i overworked her, like she needs a rest. Really really excellent unit idc if Xingqiu exists that doesn't invalidate her lots of teams like both. Really hard to have too much Hydro options in Genshin. For me when it comes to electro charge sort of comps i prefer Raiden when considering Yelan, not because Kokomi is bad but because i prefer Fischl over Yelan there, EC over mono hydro, it sheets within about 1% for Single Target but has significantly higher AoE (swirls etc) and way better shield break. The Raiden Yelan stuff in general just feels really good, i've done Sara Jean too just for fun and it worked nicely.
one issue I have about the tier list is that alhaitham isn't apart of "best in slot for one of best teams" due to the reason being that furina and xingqiu exsist, but you also say that furina is neuvillette's best sub dps hydro, and double hydro hyperbloom with haitham is definitely one of yelan's best teams
Having had her since 3.4 (and also C5 Xingqiu and C1 Furina) And can confirm I still use her regularly. one of the best and most flexible units in my roster.
Bro i'm spiraling, i'm new to genshin and early game used a few primos on 10 pulls for standard banner. Ever since I found out yelan is coming i've been penny pinching my primos and trying to do world stuff to get enough saved for the guaranteed yelan. I accidentally started building pity on the navia banner (around 35) and can guarantee a 5 star, and then go on to do a few more 10 pulls. So either I win the 50/50 or have to wait for the next Yelan banner 🥲
Will be spending all my primos for Aqua and Yelan cons. I've been playing Genshin just a little over a year (started during the Kokomi rerun), and Yelan is one of my faves! Hoyo really cooked with her design and kit. 🎲🎲🎲🎲
Outside of Furina, Yelan is the best hydro unit you can have. I have a C6 Yelan so I rarely play her with Furina because I don’t really need the extra dps.
Thankfully even i am in hiatus mode, i already got most of the must have 5 stars in genshin except for Baizhu. But like Furina, Neuvillette, Raiden, Nahida, Kazuha, Kokomi, Ganyu, dendro keqing(forgot his name cuz been long time), and of course national team. Build all of them just fine based on f2p model with abit of mix with their signature weapon.
just the nature of hoyo games, its much better to invest on newer units given how hoyo loves to powercreep units. yes you can still finish endgame with older units, much more with old meta units but they will always find newer ways to make you pull for newer characters, albeit in the form of enemies that counter them, or downright making newer units stronger with lesser investment requirements. I hate how its like that but it is what it is.
Non sense. Hoyo literally created units to bring Keqing and Diluc back to the meta. They were really bad before 2 years ago, and now they are really good, that sometimes I even prefer to use them in abyss.
Given that Theater now requires multiple characters of the same types, I have to say that Yelan is GREAT. I have C6 Xingqiu and Furina and I would still pull Yelan if I didn't already have her. She is great all around - for abyss, she is a powerful support for the teams you mentioned, and having the flexibility to go for damage OR defense with Yelan or Xinqgiu is actually very valuable (on some teams you can do both!). You mention overworld, I also prefer Xianyun but Yelan is still really good, especially in the desert. If you put a lot into ER you can also wipe overworld enemies super quickly. And like I said, Theater is making her more valuable since you can only use Furina/Xingqiu twice. I would say if you don't have C6 Xingqiu, if you don't have Furina, pick up Yelan even if you don't have an immediate use for her because chances are you will find a use for her later and she will give an immediate power boost to whatever team that is (obviously only teams that use NA but MOST of them do so).
She was my first 5 star pull. Has been my main on almost every team since and always for overworld. Now to get C1 or Weapon. Using R5 Fav bow right now.
@lordfifth4520 Lately I've been running Yelan with Arleccinno, Kazuha, Bennett or with Chlorinde, Baihzu, Kazuha. Lost my 50/50 on Furina after going to around 80 pulls. So I stopped and started saving. Have around 70 pulls saved up so far.
I avoided her because I don't want to play the game less than I already do. Running around and exploring is the one interesting and refreshing thing still left. Don't wanna speedrun that too. For saving like 5-6 seconds at a time.
I have smol Yelan. I like my smol Yelan. Cringe aside, she's a great pull for newer players who'll have a hard time getting c6 Xingqiu, with how diluted the pool is nowadays
I just pulled Yelan at pity..... Then my first pull on the weapon banner I got 3 5* .... Two of her bow and 1 amos. No effing joke. Should I go for c1?!
At that point just do it if you like her design and how she plays. I wanted her on release but didnt get her and now im super jaded to xingqiu. Hate seeing him in every abyss team no matter what main dps i use 🙃
Slingshot is also great when you don't need ER
If i have furina c2 and xingiu c3 , would you say i dont necessarily need yelan rn ,im thinking to use those primos for nahida instead of yelan
it's great with C1 yelan!!

@@brandonramsaran8312go for nahida. She’s the best dendro character by far and a top three character of all time
@@ssarellashe didn’t mention it cause it’s an event banner. it’s not relevant for most people.
Let me guess what's going to be said without watching the video:
1. Amazing character
2. Top meta
3. The best element
4. Works almost in every team
5. Pairs great with other hydro units
6. You don't need many hydro
7. Pull value depends on the characters you already have
8. Pull if you want, don't if you don't want (as per usual)

Lol I use both. Xinyan is faster, but has longer cool down. So it's best to use both.
Yelan is still a very universal hydro character, but then, so is Xingqiu and Furina. Hydro is such a top-tier element that you could really get almost anything off the menu and still be eating good. I have no regrets about getting c1 Yelan on release.
And if you have all 3 you’re eating good asf
Pretty hard to disagree with the points here. She's still a top tier unit, but the only problem is Furina is really THAT good and Neuvillette is an absolute monster as well. Despite being able to make some of the strongest teams in the game, a good portion of them are slightly stronger with a Furina variant.
I'd say Hu Tao, Arlecchino, and Kokomi still really want her, but she isn't really needed on any other teams at this point. I think a reaction focused hyperbloom team is overrated, and think quickbloom teams with characters like Al Haitham and Furina are the much better option so she's once again not meta for that, even though she does do quite well in the role.
If you like Yelan, I absolutely think she's worth it and the QOL of her skill and not needing to play around Furina's HP mechanics make her very comfy to have on your account. She's similar to a good DPS character in pull recommendations rather than the basically universal supports like Kazuha, Zhongli, and Furina.
Arlecchino is the main reason I finally caved and got Yelan. C1 Arlecchino is my clear main and lets me run C2 Furina on the other side of abyss.
Yelan may be broken but not as bad as my wallet 😢
I feel this.
i feel you im bout to go back to back hard pity for another water woman😓
Good one
I still don't understand this comparison between neuvillette and yelan because yelan having hydro application is valuable neuvillette on the other hand really just care about his damage he might as well be a geo character and nothing will change much since his best teams are the one that Focus on his damage not hydro app
Neuvillette is a on field dps character he has no business being considered the same as yelan or furina no matter how good he is he is still just a dps and they come and go
Yeah, Neuvi and Yelan have only 1 thing in common: damage. One is off field and other one is on field. Hydro doesnt mean anything for Neuvi cuz its all about his raw dmg. Like stop saying hes good cuz hes hydro, like bruh, he could like u said geo and still be this strong cuz what are we procing when using him? Low ass dmg 0 em bloom with baizhu? 💀💀 while Yelan gives super good off field consistant dmg, dmg buff to on fielder and amazing hydro app. If we speak about account value then Yelan all the way
Unless a character can be immortal on the field like him there will be not come and go for neuv
Yelan was my first limited 5 star and still my favorite character in the game, she checks all boxes by being meta, fun to play and hot 😂
Yelan is my "I'm going to eventually C6" character. Every time she's appeared, I've gotten a constellation. I'm up to C3 (got a miracle double last time.) Might just go all the way this time around. I have the pulls available and I'm not itching to get anyone from Natlan.
I C6'd her since I don't like any of the real mdps in the game, apart from neuvillette, good luck.
Update if you got her to c6? I went from c4 to c6 and am super happy
Me but with Furina. Currently C4 and next will C6 next run.
Definitely going for Yelan, not just for her meta and traverse reasons, but she's so cool.
Some people be telling me that I shouldn't pull for Yelan because "she's just like a 2nd Xingqiu"
BRUH I WILL BE PULLING FOR HER BECAUSE OF THAT REASON. BECAUSE SHE IS A BROKEN CHARACTER LIKE XINGQIU
Should i pull for her? New player here, i have xingqui and Furina.
@@ivanestrabo7952 I got here for my mono hydro team. I used Ayato, Furina, Xingqiu and Jean but swapped Xingqiu out for her, so that I can now use mono hydro on one side of the abyss and Xingqiu with my Al Haitham on the other side. Gotta say, the team feels even better now and having two really strong off field hydro appliers is really useful for me personally. If you dont have Xingqiu C6 i highly recommend her and if you do have him C6, I still recommend her if you have another good place for your Xingqiu.
Yes. I have her C1, XQ and furina. The thing is, she's SPEED. She will save you LOTS OF YOUR TIME. And besides she's strong, every constellation is good, etc.
I also habe xinqui n i love him but yelan is not only OP for DMG, she also is very very good for overworld
Her Skill is fast n u recover stamina while running
Ur invinsible while Skill
And She is bow User, so easy for Shooting Puzzel
Also xinqui needs very good Investment to be strong, yelan does stupid dmg with mid Equipment
Good luck to everyone pulling for Yelan!! 💙
I will be too, I hope I can get C1
i have a c2r1 yelan and she will never leave my team. but objectively comparing c2 yelan with xinqiu, plus for yelan is only more damage and mobility. makes me realize how broken xinqiu is.
I strongly agree with you, and - because I already have C2 Furina and C6 Xingqiu - I will postpone getting myself Yelan as an f2p player for the time being, partly because I want to C1 my Neuvilette and C2 Nahida first, parly because her current banner has mediocre 4 stars besides Xiangling (mine is already C4, so...), partly because I want to see what's cooking with Natlan first, especially Mauvika and the Pyro Archon.
That being said the opposite reasoning can also be made: knowing how strong a C6 Xingqiu is makes me realise how freaking strong Yelan is. And Abyss needs 2 teams and Hydro is always in very high demand; and now Imaginarium Theater as well.
It's just the same argument as "Kazuha is just a glorified 5 star Sucrose"; sure, correct, so what...? Sucrose is already great, Kazuha is busted.
@@Exacerberus I'm skipping all that for Yelan cons tbh. At the very least her C1.
@@Exacerberus yep! But still, we can run fast with yelan though. I’ve been playing for 4 years and mobility is really valuable for me. Since i can already clear abyss.
@@MrJemoederopeenstokj yess, my exploration team is arlechinno-xianyun-yelan. I can infinitely run without worrying about stamina. Its really nice.
5:26 as Someone who dosent have Kazuha, Running Kokomi/Yelan/Xingue/Furina was some of the fastest Kokomi clears I had, next to 3xEm+Fragments kokomi with Nilou superbloom.
I have kazhua too and i still prefer play kokomi , Furina , xinqiu, yelan too , i have neuvillette too and i clear almost faster with kokomi .
So excited to finally get her! I started playing right at the time her banner came in Fontaine. Unfortunately, I had no clue how amazing she was, but I’m definitely going to get her this time!
I had to do the same spent to many primo's and had to much going on to bring on a new character but she's coming home now
Got me convinced to get her because I don't have the Neuvillette but have Hu Tao(C0) and Xianyun(C1). The plunging makes it so much easier to play Hu Tao since I have her at C0 lol Great Video^^
she will bless ur account good luck 💯💯
I find this statement strange:
"There's never been must pull characters, but the amount of must pull characters is so low nowadays."
EDIT: It seems like my intentions in pointing out this statement were unclear (which is understandable as I did not expand on my idea loll). Basically, I wanted to point out the contradiction within the statement itself:
How could there be a *"Low amount of must pull characters nowadays"* if there *"has never been"* a must pull character?
;)
Yeah, what exactly is a MUST PULL character at this point? It becomes a useless distinction if you try and play the "Well they're good, but do you have to have them?" card. I'd prefer if he stopped using it because it gets annoying after a while. Just stick with calling them high value units or something.
I think Furina is probably the only must pull as of 4.8. Nahida, Kazuha and Yelan are quite replaceable.
@@noob.69sbi want to know what teams you’re playing where nahida is replaceable lol
@@noob.69sbnah Kazuha maybe (but still one of the best characters) definitely not nahida. She basically makes hyperbloom. Her dendro application is basically unchallenged.
@@baizhu By replaceable I don't mean the same amount of performance but more than 80% of her utility if you use any 2 dendro teams.
Plus she is not even bis in a lot of dendro teams.
I pulled for Yelan after one of your previous videos (I had thought she just wasn't something I needed). She has been one of my most used characters since.
For me I'm very glad you changed my mind.
this, I can't believe some people are saying to skip her just because furina exists
Furina is nice, but Yelan gets more actual abyss usage for me. I've used Yelan in every single abyss since I pulled her, and she's the only character I have used 100% of the time. She's not even my favorite character, she's just that good.
I cant get over that video of a c6 yelan soloing the abyss
Her banner is out and I've finally gotten her! Also her weapon and C1. Won all three 50/50s! Feeling super lucky tonight.
I only use her for exploration, mono hydro and also when hydro is part of the theatre. Should you pick her up? Hard to say. But if you have designs on Natlan, I personally deem her one of the easiest skips of your life. On the flipside, if you want to build into either older or current teams at the time of writing, she's a decent pickup.
Can’t wait! I’m gonna get her and just realised I have a lot of her best teams so I’ll defo check those out! Thank you for your guides they really help me!
I remember pulling for her just to have a xingqiu for the second half of the abyss and she's insane
I have Qingqui, Neuvillette and Furina, still I’ll pull for Yelan. Nothing is going to stop me!!
Before watching: The only reason I can imagine that'd lower her value is Furina existing. That's it.
For artifacts: I've seen a Yelan running around with a full HP build on a Golden Troupe set. Her skill hit like a truck. Definietly a quirky and not an optimal build if you want her for off-field support, but it was a funny and functional build nontheless.
My only issue with Yelan is, that I don't have any pyro on-field DPS with high attack speed to pair with her. My only on-field Pyro carry is Diluc. (I mean there's also Gaming, who's budget Diluc, and Xinyan who's budget Gaming, and Yanfei who's not built at all, similarly to the other 2 4 stars I just mentioned)
I do have Yelan on my Clorinde team though. Not that I use that team much now that she reached friendship 10, but she's a pretty great carry and works really well with Yelan and Furina both. (That team: Clorinde, Nahida, Yelan, Furina) She's also on my Raiden Hyperbloom team, which is, probably not surprising, basically the same exact team, just with a different on-field carry. Out of the 2 teams I tried with Navia, one of the best ones was Navia/Zhongli/Xiangling/Bennett, which I have saved as a team, while the other one was Navia/Zhongli/Yelan/Furina, so even for that team I'd give a good recommendation for her.
While I do appreciate her skill for exploration, I never really relied on that. And since I have Xianyun, who I got on C1 by accident, I don't even use Yelan for overworld movement most of the time. I did use both on the team for a while, but my Yelan is C0 not C1, so my C1 Xianyun simply outclassed her in that regard.
TLDR: Yelan is great, the only reason her value went down is that characters who do parts of what she does slightly better came out. With the names of Furina and Xianyun. (Mostly Furina)
I really enjoy these in-depth looks
I just got Navia and I'm having a blast using her to drive double hydro. It can be yelan, furina and Bennett of circle imoact isn't a problem or yelan, Furina and any teamwide healer. Both works great and lead to a comfy clear. I definitely recommend this team.
This is a rare time where the weapon banner is actually worth pulling for once. Aqua works great with almost everyone; The polearm is still a decent stat stick; and I need refinements for my Wandering Evenstar.
whos the spear good for?
@@bancy1527 Off the top of my head: Arlecchino, Xiangling, Hutao. If you pair them with a dendro unit, they can also take advantage of the bonus energy though you may be better off just using fav if you have energy issues. Keep in mind that it's still just a cope stat stick if you literally don't have anything else.
In my case though, I managed to get Aqua in just 20 pulls and not once did I get copies of Wandering Evenstar so...... 🤷♀
I don´t understand, that Furina and Yelan replacing each other.
I can run Neuvilette + Furina on one side and Xingqui + Yelan on the other side.
And still want Kokomi + Nilou...
And new Accounts getting so much primos, shuld just pull who is first.
And Exploration, Speed + bow always in my team
Yelan completely changed my account before i used to think xingque can be played in replace of her but after the realisation that my c6 properly builted xingque cant out dps random 5 artifact sets on c0 yelan thats when i understand the difference between 5* and 4*. People will still argue that xingque can replace but i have never and ever touch xingque after that and probably will never have to do lol. The difference is just too much and funny fact i never even bother to build her bc of that its just 5 random piece of artifacts doing so much dmg, crazy shit of a character.yelan and kazuha literally changed my quality of life in genshin impact. So much utility + application insane units. I know some people will say u should get whatever u want but some characters just make the quality of life so much easier than others that there's not even an option of saying "NO".
then you are genuinely doing something wrong. Xinqiu and yelan have very very similar damage. I wanna see your build to see what are you doing.
Also c6 xinqiu has 36% more hydro than yelan, not an opinion just a fact. Count their icd, adding on you don't need to pull for yelan. Nahida, kazuha, furina all have much more value.
@@AlwaysThirstysno they absolutely do not. Yelans gap over xinqui is absolutely large even if you have him a five star weapon. She’s that much stronger
@@AlwaysThirstys XQ and yelans dmg os only close if XQ gets external buffs like totm and noblesse. If yelan can do 2Es per rotation, yelans dmg is higher even if XQ gets those buffs. In teams where xq cant get those buffs, Yelans dmg is significantly higher.
XQs extra hydro app dosnt matter to 99% of the meta teams. All the vape carries (including hutao) can work with Furina or Yelans hydro app. The best dendro teams (Quickbloom and Nilou) prefer Furina, Yelan and Kokomi over XQ. Best taser teams use Yelan + Furina. XQ is literally not BiS in any team except sucrose national atm.
@@deltaspecies1697bro i hate when XQ Skill miss because the enemy dodge it or u miss calculate. 😂
So glad I got Yelan for Yoimiya over a year ago, because now I have her for Arlecchino
i agree, yelan is a great great character but we just have too many hydro units now. All of them who can do just fine and help you clear abbyss. Coming from a former yelan main
Been waiting for a chance to pull Yelan. Lets Go!
I always forget to use her burst...which is frustrating when I realize I should have used it.
Apparently I need to reconfigure her artifacts, because I've got her with 2pc/2pc Tenacity/Vourukasha; which means she's at 41k HP, but seems that's not the best way to use her.
The 3* bow is the Recurve Bow, which gives you 46.9% HP at level 90, and heals Yelan for 8-16% when she kills something, which isn't an insignificant amount when you get her HP up.
getting yelan for me is a must pull even tho i have furina and c6 xingqiu bc i always get stressed out on choosing where to put xingqiu and furina on each side of the abyss bc i main hu tao and i need that double hydro. getting yelan for me will solve all my problems in team building right now and defenitely in the future. in the end of the day they are the best 3 off field hydro characters why not get them all.
When I'm trying to do the combat events, tower or theater , many team i make seem to need/want xq. So glad i got yelan for that
God i love yelan, i cant live without her anymore
Yelan was my first 5-star and later I got Neuvillette C1. I almost pulled Furina until they announced Navia’s rerun, so the hydro problem applied for me except I was skipping Furina instead of Yelan. Navia was so worth it.
I made a lazy Gaming team with Yelan, Furina and bird lady. Always getting the vapes is really nice and frees up Bennet for the other team. I always get really fast clears with this team
Who’s bird lady?
@@mattk120 xianyun
Got her by accident in my 1st 10 pull during her Fontaine banner. She was my 2nd 5 star didn't want her since people say she's just a 5 star Xingqiu. Looking back at it, I got lucky she came home that day.
I've had Aqua since Yelan's release but didn't manage to get Yelan then. It was a weird situation. I'm going for her now, since while I have Furina and C6 Xingqiu, XQ is basically glued to my hyperbloom team and Furina is wanted basically everywhere. There's never enough hydro for me.
Since we are talking about Yelan, here's my Hu Tao main DPS team, and I've been using it since almost 2 years for constantly clearing one half of the Abyss:
*Yelan (C2R1)
*Mona (C2, but C1 does the trick, although C4 makes things even better; She uses 4PC Tenacity of the Milelith)
*Zhongli (C0; He uses 4PC Instructor)
*Hu Tao (C1R1)
First things first, it may not be the cheapest team around considering that all units are 5 stars (with the respective limited weapons for Yelan and Hu Tao) and it has 3 Constellations between 2 limited characters...
...However, Hu Tao doesn't need her C1 for damage and Yelan was featured alongside Hu Tao, so I was able to get the signature weapons for both characters at the same time; On top of that, R5 Dragon's Bane is pretty close to R1 Homa anyways and Yelan doesn't need her weapon in order to offer decent support capabilities either, so C2R0 Yelan (R5 Favonius Warbow) and C0R0 Hu Tao (R5 Dragon's Bane) should be able to deliver more than 80% of their "premium" versions, no doubt.
Second, this team uses Zhongli and Mona like no other one does, because vape is the only transformative reaction that Mona can buff with her C1 and Zhongli offers the fattest amount of damage increase when using instructor, but again, that only works for teams which can use Elemental Mastery to its fullest.
Yelan is broken for highly invested accounts or whale accounts, or those generally interested in high DPS & low survivability gameplay. She increases damage ceilings, and makes speedrunning feel satisfying.
Wouldn't recommend her until AFTER you have Furina for F2P.
Yelan is not a must pull. She was always just a nice option to have because having two XQs is better than one 😂
3*, now it’s 3
@@noodle67 how is it 3?

Enery recharge needs: 140-200+, depending on team.

Neuvillette/Furina/Kazuha team doesn't synergize with Yelan, and the other team is Raiden Hyper with Chevreuse
2 other teams I use are Neuvillette/Furina/Nahida/Kuki and Nilou Bloom
Even though I really wanna have Yelan, imma have to skip her this time..
i recently got nilou and im left with only 30 pulls and dont think i will have enought time to get her..but she came home just after 30 pulls and won my 50/50...im so glad
As someone who lost 5050 3 times in a row and all high pity count, I got her for 30 pulss and won the 5050. Very rare moment for me. 😭
I had 40 pulls hoping to get a Yelan on the 50/50. In those 40 pulls Yelan won the 5050, then out came Keqing and another Yelan 😱
Super great video. Really informative. Coming back to the game after 2 years it's changed a lot.

I am pulling Yelan because she doesn't have Xingqu's yee-yee ass haircut.
You must be delusion wielder because it's the same cut 😂
Probably her boobs and ampits discombobulated you and you didn't realise they have exactly the same cut and hair colour... If anything Yelan is hotter but Xingqiu is girlier inside.
Bro they got the same hair what are you saying 😂
She is actually why I started playing and she is also my most used unit
C4 to c6. Took all 240 that I had but I got her finally
Low key I need a break from Xianyun's shouts every hop while exploring 😭 turns out the real powercreep is my hearing
MUH CONTRAPTIONS
When are we getting a cryo or pyro Yelan 😭
Xiangling
It's really important to emphasize which units she works with now days.
She's not the universal hydro that she used to be.
She's still universal tho, her buff is viable for any DPS since its Bonus Dmg. In terms of Flexible Hydro Sub Dps, Furina>Yelan>Xingqiu, only because Xingqiu doesn't have that buff that Furina and Yelan offers but on the other side Xingqiu has the best hydro application compared to them.
It's funny, before I pulled for yelan, I had about 45 pity, got her at 65, had five pulls left, went to weapon banner, an got her bow after 8th pull
Indeed, I think she was kind of a must pull, but she no longer is. She is still really freaking good.
Yelan is a character i loved so much i sort of played her too much, still bring her out sometimes but i feel like i overworked her, like she needs a rest. Really really excellent unit idc if Xingqiu exists that doesn't invalidate her lots of teams like both. Really hard to have too much Hydro options in Genshin.
For me when it comes to electro charge sort of comps i prefer Raiden when considering Yelan, not because Kokomi is bad but because i prefer Fischl over Yelan there, EC over mono hydro, it sheets within about 1% for Single Target but has significantly higher AoE (swirls etc) and way better shield break. The Raiden Yelan stuff in general just feels really good, i've done Sara Jean too just for fun and it worked nicely.
C4 r1 currently
210 pulls
guarantee
C6 will be mine
She's OP for the overworld, that alone is worth it.
I still love how everyone said to skip her when she first released, because she's a "Xingqiu Side grade".
Same thing when Kaz came out. Sucrose/Drunk Bard side-grade. That was wrong too. Hehe
Now I’m skipping because Natlan is coming out.
cause she is
@thechadford8572 double hydro is just so good and comfy, idk how people justify not getting yelan.
@@Darkness-zd7xeimo furina’s release has reduced her pull value quite a bit but she’s still great
one issue I have about the tier list is that alhaitham isn't apart of "best in slot for one of best teams" due to the reason being that furina and xingqiu exsist, but you also say that furina is neuvillette's best sub dps hydro, and double hydro hyperbloom with haitham is definitely one of yelan's best teams
Having had her since 3.4 (and also C5 Xingqiu and C1 Furina) And can confirm I still use her regularly. one of the best and most flexible units in my roster.
0:27 YOUR ARE TELLING ME THIS AFTER I FINISHED FARMING FOR HER?
Misinformation lmao
That is why you don't prefarm.
so hyped for Yelan! ❤
Bro i'm spiraling, i'm new to genshin and early game used a few primos on 10 pulls for standard banner. Ever since I found out yelan is coming i've been penny pinching my primos and trying to do world stuff to get enough saved for the guaranteed yelan. I accidentally started building pity on the navia banner (around 35) and can guarantee a 5 star, and then go on to do a few more 10 pulls. So either I win the 50/50 or have to wait for the next Yelan banner 🥲
“building pity” isn’t a thing. don’t pull unless you want the 5 star
@@baizhu got it^^ I barely unlocked the ability to wish right before understanding how it worked

I can’t imagine an account without yelan (yes even though i have xingqiu). She carries me so much
Will be spending all my primos for Aqua and Yelan cons. I've been playing Genshin just a little over a year (started during the Kokomi rerun), and Yelan is one of my faves! Hoyo really cooked with her design and kit.
🎲🎲🎲🎲
C6 Yelan your coming home ♥️
Outside of Furina, Yelan is the best hydro unit you can have. I have a C6 Yelan so I rarely play her with Furina because I don’t really need the extra dps.
First thing HYV gonna do after Fontaine ends is find some way to buff Yelan back up to being the best character in the game again
Oh boi, I just won the 50/50
as much as I want to get yelan but I'm spotting for raiden c2 and EL for my beloved c0 raiden. I raiden rerun as usual then maybe
i love how every genshin guide nowadays has to discuss the most important question in the game... 'So do you have Furina?"😭
I’ve been waiting for this video 😋
her bow is definitely good, i finally got it & c4 but the r5 stringless isnt that that much worse especially when considering the full team damage
Thankfully even i am in hiatus mode, i already got most of the must have 5 stars in genshin except for Baizhu. But like Furina, Neuvillette, Raiden, Nahida, Kazuha, Kokomi, Ganyu, dendro keqing(forgot his name cuz been long time), and of course national team. Build all of them just fine based on f2p model with abit of mix with their signature weapon.
just the nature of hoyo games, its much better to invest on newer units given how hoyo loves to powercreep units. yes you can still finish endgame with older units, much more with old meta units but they will always find newer ways to make you pull for newer characters, albeit in the form of enemies that counter them, or downright making newer units stronger with lesser investment requirements. I hate how its like that but it is what it is.
There a several old characters that have not been powercrept and will always be useful to use with new characters. Yelan is one of them.
Lil man, that's the nature of gacha games. Not Hoyo games.
Non sense. Hoyo literally created units to bring Keqing and Diluc back to the meta. They were really bad before 2 years ago, and now they are really good, that sometimes I even prefer to use them in abyss.
So u guys need the power of new units to beat old Content
Some day ppl pull for units to just 1 click every Content
What a boring Life
Given that Theater now requires multiple characters of the same types, I have to say that Yelan is GREAT. I have C6 Xingqiu and Furina and I would still pull Yelan if I didn't already have her. She is great all around - for abyss, she is a powerful support for the teams you mentioned, and having the flexibility to go for damage OR defense with Yelan or Xinqgiu is actually very valuable (on some teams you can do both!). You mention overworld, I also prefer Xianyun but Yelan is still really good, especially in the desert. If you put a lot into ER you can also wipe overworld enemies super quickly. And like I said, Theater is making her more valuable since you can only use Furina/Xingqiu twice. I would say if you don't have C6 Xingqiu, if you don't have Furina, pick up Yelan even if you don't have an immediate use for her because chances are you will find a use for her later and she will give an immediate power boost to whatever team that is (obviously only teams that use NA but MOST of them do so).
She was my first 5 star pull. Has been my main on almost every team since and always for overworld. Now to get C1 or Weapon. Using R5 Fav bow right now.
If you are playing her in double hydro most of the time, i would consider the weapon, but for solo hydro c1>weapon imo
@lordfifth4520 Lately I've been running Yelan with Arleccinno, Kazuha, Bennett or with Chlorinde, Baihzu, Kazuha.
Lost my 50/50 on Furina after going to around 80 pulls. So I stopped and started saving. Have around 70 pulls saved up so far.

I feel pressured into pulling yelan. Like XQ and Furina feels like enough but everyone keeps raving about her.
Same here
Same.
At that point just do it if you like her design and how she plays. I wanted her on release but didnt get her and now im super jaded to xingqiu. Hate seeing him in every abyss team no matter what main dps i use 🙃
Don’t succumb to hype. If you don’t want and feel you don’t need her, don’t pull her. You’ll be alright without her, especially if you have Furina
She is indeed amazing to have even with furina and xingqui, not a must pull but so nice to have.
Finally got her to C4... now the waiting game starts for next rerun for C6 :(
Yelan and arlecchino in the same team works? If so im pulling
Yes, they do.
