Hey everyone! You can support my channel by simply SMASHING today's sponsor's link, Blade Idle: ggcont.me/3I3NTNc Thank you and I wish the best of luck to all you Yoimiya wanters!
Yoimiya is the character for the lazy like me. No mechanics needed. Activate shield, activate xq burst and just stand there to pew pew the enemies to death.
Yep, this is why I main bow characters (mainly ganyu, yoimiya, and yelan). Just pop shield, stand in one spot and easily kill every type of enemy. No need to aim, move, worry about range. It's amazing.
Same. Even in the Abyss, I always use Zhongli, Yoi, or Kokomi over my heavy invested unit like Hu Tao, Eula, or Xiangling. I don't want to restart the chamber because my unit dies or to recharge my burst. I just want my primos.
I enjoy running Yoi with Yelan, c6 Fischl and Zhongli. Not her best team but it still hits like a truck and looks like a laser light show. Breezed through the second half of floor 12 this rotation.
In terms of her banner, I have a feeling many would choose to save primos instead because of Sumeru coming very soon with new dendro characters and reactions. Yoimiya seems to have gotten the short end of the stick in banner timing again, with her previous banner being between Ayaka and Ei. Really is a shame since she is very fun to play
Hard to say. People might be out of primos from kazu banner and ppl dont really seem to be all that interested in the 5 star on 3.0 banner. Could depend on whats rerun but if u were close to pity and want to try for the 4 stars without wanting the 5 than she may be a good option to pull
The thing with Yunjin's buff is that it gets multiplied when Yoimiya crits. Edit: I tested Yunjin's buff. However, these NA damage numbers are slightly rough estimates but enough to see the significance. My Yoimiya has 77.5% Crit Rate 174.4% Crit Damage Below are the resulting damage numbers of her first normal attacks: *Physical No Yunjin buff >Not crit: 1,300 >Crit : 3,800 With Yunjin buff >Not crit: 3600 >Crit: 10,500 *Pyro infused NA No Yunjin buff >Not crit: 2,800 >Crit : 8,000 With Yunjin buff >Not crit: 5,700 >Crit: 16,500 In short, with Yunjin's buff, you don't have to worry in getting to Yoimiya's last NA because Yunjin's buff works well on buffing low multipliers i.e. Yoimiya's first NA. This also makes it possible to dodge and shoot so you can get rid of a shielder like Zhongli and just replace him with a sub dps or a buffer like Bennett. This is how I play and get 36 stars in Abyss with her. But if I want to be comfortable, I can use Zhongli so I could just ungga bungga but still kill things with ease.
True. Bonus Damage and Crit Damage multiply it. That's how flat damage works. It gets added to the sheet attack which is your total attack × skill multiplier.
Exactly the problem with her kit (well not problem, lets say, quirk). She needs to CRIT. If she is not CRIT'ing, then she might as well be dancing on the field. Contrary to many earlier belief, Yoimiya can be super resin expensive if you want carrying the team through abyss. I am still grinding for 90% CR after 4months. Still no end in sight. Yes, I have had little Yoi baby since she was shunned by people last year and have pretty much regularly had her on my teams. But I only got serious about grinding domains because thats the actual meta for this game lol and because abyss floor 12. If you just play normal overworld stuff - yea, she can cheese through all of it. Just left click to eternity. And some dodge obviously
I really like Yoimiya, even if she's not meta I've been saving up everything for her, i couldn't get her a year ago but now I have 69 pitty and ~62 wishes, on s 50/50 but I'm sure I'll be able to get her, i just need to farm a little more talent books and some samachurls for lvl 90 talents 10 8 8 Edit: I got her, c6'd my noelle, and got some yunjin constellations, now my yoimiya is lvl 90 talents 10 9 1 Edit 2: crowned Yoimiyas E
@@sentiss3528 wdym cope lmao, she's really good at her role. I've been using her in the abyss ever since I got her still doing a great job :3 I used her on first half this abyss reset, which has multiple enemies, she still annihilated them :3 (Zhongli, Yunjin, Yoi and Xingqiu) No bennett or kazu
Yunjin, yelan, echoes, spectres, thunder manifestation, mechanical array, wolflord, ruin serpent, more ranged enemies coming in sumeru... yep game definitely hasnt changed this past year!
Even though she isn't the best, she is my favorite character by far, and her dps is far more satisfying then it needs to be for a f2p build, triple crowned and everything. even with some issues, shes still so much fun
@@prosamis her fast Normal attack playstyle is very satisfying, she’s almost like a machine gun, plus she does it with very cute animations so it’s very fun in my opinion
@@prosamis going around with her fast NA playstyle is fun and satisfying, and in games I love to make underrated characters really strong and better then whatever is meta. Not only that but I actually like her character from her story quest and I love her outfit
I’m pulling for her because her autotargetting is so useful especially when you are facing something like an annoying flying boss like the wolflord. Also I really like her as a character! Manifesting to win my 50/50 🤞🏼🤞🏼
Owning both a tp Yoimiya and homa hutao, I use yoi much more. She’s so convenient, easy to use and does really good damage. I can’t wait to get constellations for her
I have both C1 Hutao and C0 Yoimiya, and while Hutao can do very high damage, her playstyle feels like you'd have to sacrifice fun for big damage numbers; Yoimiya on the other hand is more fun to play, despite may not be able to do as much damage in short burst. If I am being honest, I find play Diluc more fun and satisfying than Hutao, despite he got shatted on by meta-slaves.
I’ve just been wondering why they didn’t put heizou in her banner. That way she would at least get some more attention and sales. It could at least balance the over time profits. I think she will not do well due to Kazuha and Heizou together on one banner.
Because putting 2 desirable characters on a single banner is strategic. It means tha someone who wanted kazuha and heizou has to pull on kazuhas banner. And if they do not get it they wont have time to save. This will make it more difficukt for people who only want heizou.
@@drained1177 Actually, putting two widely desired characters on different banners would probably give them more sales. People might want both, and they might spend all their primogems on the Kazuha/Klee banner, then turn to buying genesis crystals to get Heizou on Yoimiya’s banner.
@@Lemural Not a lot of people who want Heizou want Yoimiya tho. In terms of enjoyment from the majority of the community, they want Kazuha (like me personally)
For people who dont have a high refinement rust: You can use the 3 star weapon, Slingshot at r5. The 0.3 second hit window is quite large and its low attack can be made up with bennett. The Slingshot can actually outdamage an r5 rust in some scenarios.
By some scenarios they mean it can be better cause the 30% cr lets you optimise articats more towards crit damage and with bennett you make up for the lower attack stat, especially since it has a massive damage modifier on it.
I accidentally got Yoimiya last Summer when she-and Sayu, who I was actually rolling for-first came out. At the time I was a little disappointed, but now she's one of my favorite characters to use, especially with supports like Xingqiu or Yelan. She's just so much fun!!!
@@Lemural its not logical since 4 stars don't have a guarantee you have 3 rate ups without guarantee+ other 4 stars+ all gacha weapons which in all makes it lesser probable to get than the banner 5 star
I don’t get why people say she’s “fine”. Her damage is amazing and pairing her with supports like yelan, Bennett, yun Jin and so on will make her destroy the game.
@@Nhyufll debatable. Her paired with yelan, Bennett, and yun Jin is amazing and she definitely does not perform worse. She’s more comfortable to play than hu Tao because of hu Taos hp sacrificing and complex mechanics.
Bc of her lack of AOE and the fact that her ult is virtually useless. Still love her tho, just wish hoyoverse gave her at least a little more of AOE, since her entire theme revolves around fireworks..
@@devilsadvocate7474 i wouldnt call her ult useless, on shimi its usually up right when your skill ends so you can use it before swapping her out and it adds a decent amount of extra damage. It even buffs her pyro damage on c2 though who the hell even has c2. I only really do this in the abyss though as its really kind of overkill in the overworld. Its not a useless ult but it definitely isnt anywhere near the best in the game
im not playing this for almost 1 year and before i forget i have to tell you. You are are the BEST youtuber, steamer, content creator etc this game could ever had. thankyou and good bye
Yoimiya is my first limited 5* character and my only 50/50 win at that (I've lost 7 50/50s in a row after her). Yoimiya has carried me from AR 21 all the way now to AR 57. She's my only triple crowned character and easily my most well-built one at that (w/ 2.2k atk 79/180 crit on 4pc Shimenawa and an R2 Rust). She's been in my overworld team since the day I got her and that will probably never change. I also use her all the time in abyss, in various kinds of teams, and she still carries my runs to a full 36* clear. Whenever my friends need help farming bosses, specters, or the rifthounds, they always ask me to bring my Yoimiya, because she makes things much easier. I had heard of the issues that theory crafters and content creators were saying about her, which was by the way super exaggerated and they were being very biased, when she first came out but I still pulled for her regardless because I enjoyed her playstyle, loved her design, and adored her personality and story quest. Seriously she did not and will never deserve any of the hate that anyone directed to her as she is far from the worst character in the entire game and is actually one of the most compassionate, caring, and wholesome characters lorewise
When I first pulled for Raiden people told me not to and that she sucked but I pulled anyway (lost the 50/50 back then but got her on her most recent banner). Ignoring the wide opinions of the community is best. I will be pulling for Yoimiya for the first time. Hope I win the 50/50. :)
@@Mark-xw5yt pretty sure most care about meta without noticing. Otherwise why was Kokomi and Yoimiya so hated before and why was Yae loved but hated after ppl find out she's not meta enough
yoimiya is the only character i wanted that wasn't based off of meta, i wanted her simply for her character design and her endearing personality... i've been debating on finish building her to lvl 90 and crowning her NA(thx for the correction) and E, since I do have a R5 Rust and a somewhat decent shimenawa set so her current stat is at lvl 79 and 75/166
If you want to crown her, you need to crown her Normal Attack first before her E skill. Her skill transforms and enhances her NA into pyro infused arrows but her dmg is reliant on the NA multipliers of her talent. Her skill does not deal any damage, it only improves her NA dmg.
I've got her on release just because of her yelling while using the Q and her animations while attacking. That alone made me think "to hell with it, I'll gonna burn my guaranteed pull on her!" after holding it since a 50/50 dreadful loss at Childe. And i never regretted it since, after all, 2 weeks before her banner I also got my first 5* weapon and it was an amos bow. She's now my best and funniest DPS, specially when pairing with Raiden.
I have been waiting for her rerun since I love her design and easy gameplay. It sucks that she's after Kazuha and right before Sumeru. Hopefully I can get her early and start saving primos for Nilou and Kusanali. Good luck to anyone wishing for her!
I'd argue her flexibility and great synergy with most supports and subdps' is also a huge bonus in her favor, you can run her in so many comps it's not even funny. Not all characters in this game can afford you this many playstyles. Not all of them are made equal, but having the variety also helps with team building and makes the game more fun.
Yall saying her burst is useless because of Shimenawa... Use Bollide so that you can spam her burst and do vape Aurous Blaze dmg with Xq or Yelan. Using her burst first in a rotation can buff xq's rain sword dmg or Yelan's ult. Bollide also further fortifies her shield making her normal attk chains hard to interrupt
just pull for whoever you like more,pulling just for meta is really bad, i have hu tao since her first banner and even tho she is absolutely strong, i dont like her playstyle and so i regret pulling for
As someone with a staff of homa hu tao since patch 1.3, I chose yoimiya over her the vast majority of the time if I need a pyro dps 😅 On paper single target doesn’t sound as good, but yoimiya with good supports is just so strong and convenient and kills everything so easily that it doesn’t matter at all lol
ive found yoimiya really fun to play recently, yelan really improved my enjoyment of her as well, i dont like the feel of hutaos charged attack playstyle and diluc got boring after 6 months, i think for most players who end up passively farming a good shimenawas she will probably suprise you with her consistency. of all my teams she one phases the raiden shogun boss the fastest and does so consistently. also any one having issues with ruin serpent give her a shot, she decimates it
(I typed this before watching the video, so I’ll probably repeat a number of things that he says in the vid ^^;) I got Yoimiya during her first banner, around AR 45. I was initially let down since she didn’t do big numbers like my friends’ characters, however after way too long I’ve finally given her the artifacts she deserves, an aqua simulacra and a bunch of supports for her team (Zhongli, Bennett, and now Kazuha). She is by far my favourite character to play: her attack animations are beautiful and *with support* her single target numbers are on par with my ganyu’s. Seriously. She can deal 80-120k per round of attacks. Seeing the health bar drain on big enemies is super satisfying to watch. The key things to note for Yoimiya is that support is vital. She’s definitely capable at soloing, however she is a squishy character and very much appreciates a shield. Bennett, Yunjin, Kazuha, Xingqui, and Yelan are all great options for her, because she can either work in a vape or mono pyro team. She is single target. She can take down a few targets simultaneously but cc characters are simply better at her at dealing with large groups. The issue is less prevalent with kazuha in your team, but for abyss always have Yoimiya going against the big enemies. As like every character, getting a good build/team for Yoimiya will take time- however I wholeheartedly believe that Yoimiya is one of the most rewarding characters to play Good luck Yoimiya wanters! 👍
If I fail to get Kazuha by the time his banner ends I wouldn’t mind getting yoimiya because I personally find her range to be her best attribute, especially in the abyss when there’s a ton of ranged/airborne units
I got Yoimiya on her first banner and I still absolutely love her! Been using her mainly in overloaded teams and with her I'm having so much more fun than with a majority of units in this game.
When i found any trouble killing something i use Yoimiya with Zhongli, Raiden and Yae, and i just love the overload chaos that happens! So many things flying away in multiple explosions...
I love yoimiya so much, and I often take her to abyss when the enemies have large HP pools. She hasn't failed me yet to 36* my abyss runs. She might not be meta but she's so easy to play and you only need her at c0 to shred. I run her with c3 yun jin, c0 zhongli and c6 xingqiu and its a very fun team to play I think.
I play mainly on mobile and she's very easy to play. No complicated mechanics to optimize her. Just shield her (Zhongli, Thoma, Diona, etc.), use her with other supports or sub-DPS (preferably Yun Jin, Bennet, Yelan/XQ, Beidou, Fishcl), and your set. You can regularly 36* the Abyss with her various team comps too. She just got better over time with the release of mobile and flying enemies and in the form of characters such as Yelan and Yun Jin
Let me clarify something about Yoimiya's lack of of AOE. It doesn't mean that she's weak against groups of smaller enemies. Quite the contrary. Let me give a real world example. A machine gun also doesn't have any AOE, but it is one of the most effective anti-infantry weapons. Same with Yoimiya. Yes, she can only kill mobs 1 by 1, but she does it so quickly that she feels like a one man firing squad. You literally mow down groups of hilichurls or treasure hoarders. The only situation she struggles with is when there are two or three beefy enemies at the same time, and the fight is time gated. Which normally only happens in the abyss. Apart from being ill-suited for that specific scenario, she is absolutely fine as a DPS.
Even that particular situation of beefy enemies is pretty much irrelevant with a well-built vape team. Hydro shreds the shit out of basically everything
Her range and high attack speed make her really good vs those annoying abyss waves where you have 5 hilichurl ranged units spread 100 miles apart from eachother. AoE doesn't matter if grouping enemies at all is an issue.
@@Grapejellyification Yeah using Hu Tao is a bit of a struggle with annoying non clumped hillichurls. Not only do I lose stamina for running, it also takes time
Iwtl: "I predominantly use Yoimiya on the other side of the abyss 12 that im not showcasing for most of my videos" He may not saying it out loud because people always get triggered but that's probably a confession from Iwtl saying that she's the best because she is reliable. No need to fish for huge crit on ult, no tedious setup and no floor restart. Just use E and delete the floor.
Shes my main since the moment the specters came out i was like i need her since they didn't get nerf at that time very good single dps target especially in bosses that doesn't have pyro immune
People often compare C1 Hu Tao with Homa to Yoimiya with Pulse and they say that Yoimiya sucks. Yoimiya is much more f2p friendly. Her constellations and weapon are a minor improvement over C0 Rust. A f2p Yoimiya is practically the same as Hu Tao. Yoimiya is also much more flexible when it comes to teams. Meanwhile Hu Tao is so reliant on charged attack that she is forced to be run with vape. Hu Tao best team has Zhongli and Albedo. Meanwhile Yoimiya's best team uses Zhongli and Yunjin instead of Albedo. Hu Tao is clunky forcing players to cancel animations for optimal play. She also has major stamina issues that her C1 fixes. Hu Tao also prefers to stay at low health. This is a major downside when damage goes through shields like corrode or when self damaging reactions come out Hu Tao with dendro. People who have Hu Tao will say that Yoimiya is bad. People who have Yoimiya will say that she's fine. People who have both will say that Hu To is slightly better but they will end up using Yoimiya for convenience.
I agree to almost everything you said up until you said Hu Tao was clunky 1. Pressing space each time you charge attack doesnt require any skill so i dont get what you mean by clunky (unless your on mobile, you'd definitely be better off with Yoimiya) 2. Hu tao prefers to be under 50% but Hu tao's 50% is Yoimiya's full health so i dont see any problem 3. As long as you dont sprint cancel on c0 Hu Tao you will have more than enough stamina each rotation for your charge attacks 4. And lastly i want to point out just cause a 5* is required for their "best" team doesnt mean they are less versatile as Hu Tao can run 4 star supports just as well as Yoimiya (Hu Tao, Tankfei, Sucrose, Xingqiu is one of the team that i use from time to time)
My Yoimiya team is the team I have used the most since she came out. I'm AR 60 with basically my pick of most of the roster but I keep coming back to her. She's a very comfy character to relax and play. I feel like a lot of the Genshin community is so conditioned to look for damage per screenshot that they devalue ease of use.
As a happy Yoi main, she’s very fun to play! Shes my strongest character for boss fights but also one of the most fun units in my roster. Good luck to any Yoimiya wanters!!
as someone who got her in her first banner , i can safely say she's still my favourite char (raiden close second) in fact she's my only crowned char , i run her with r2 rust (ik unlucky) yet she is still able to clear abyss , if u like her and her insanely cute va and normal attack animation definetly get her she will carry you in single target situations and she's a flexible unit as she has a ton of teams ( vapr , overvape , overload...) anyways , i hope all yoimiya wanters will be yoimiya havers :D
Yoimiya is my absolute favorite character in the entire Game. I love her design, her lovely personality, her gorgeous animations, it is lovely. While I do love Yelan a bit more because her design and playstyle are fabulous, nothing could replace Yoimiya's place in my heart. She is great, she is spunky and fun, and she will be the first character I ever actually whale for.
Yelan feels a lot like Yoimiya tbh. Less damage but she doesn’t miss, more fun because of her E, and much better uptime if your ER is good enough. I pretty much use my yelan like a yoimiya in overworld. It’s gonna be fun to use them together soon
A proud Yoimiya haver here. She's very fun to play no cap. I usually use new characters to farm for their friendship exp but with Yoimiya, I didn't even realize that she's already friendship 10 cuz her gameplay is so interesting
I love Yoimiya. I've been using her as my Main Pyro DPS over Hu Tao. She doesn't consume stamina, she's ranged, she doesn't miss, you barely have to move her when attacking so long as she has a shield, etc.
Yoimiya is my favourite DPS in the game. Using her with Fischl, Zhongli and Xingqiu. I just love her fast spam clicking playstyle with her infused attacks which is also a very comfortable because you can just stand and spam click. She isn't as strong as Hu Tao but she is definitely good enough to do 36* Abyss and between Hu Tao, Ayaka, Raiden and Yoimiya, Yoimiya is my dps of choice. +She is absolutely adorable and her ornaments are really pretty. So yeah, I recommend trying her out in the trial because she is really fun to play.
I really like Yoimiya. I was really happy when I got her. Exploring became so much easier since I don't need to constantly switch teams when there's flying enemies, torches, enemies on towers etc. A very comfortable unit to use, you just neet to click auto atk especially when you have a good shielder.
I pulled on her banner last year and got her. She is now one of my most built character, simply because of how much emblem sets I have to farm. I plan to go for her bow if it comes back.
I think that thanks to Yelan, she is finally in a far better position, than she was in the past. In the past, when she was released, no one played her, because Hu Tao did in her team better, which was also a good team for Yoimiya. However, now with Yelan addition, even Yoimiya can get a good partner and her top team, which you have showed is really META team. It can really slain enemies so fast that even Hu Tao's team is basically just a little bit faster. So yea, she is finally penetrating meta, which is so good and I'm happy for her. I don't have her, but I have C5 bennet and Yelan with Kazuha, so she is the last part and the most primary role, which I still need and which I lack, so I will definitely go for her and have a fun with her. I wanted her first time too, but I chose Ayaka that time, they were in the same time, so I needed skip her, but now I will try to get her.
Truth to be told, in this days with the Yun Jin and Yelan comp she deal more damage of Hu Tao vs boss especially if they have mobility and/or can fly like Ruin Serpent and Golden Wolflord and she work very well with 4 star bow like Rust and she is easy to use. Hu Tao win vs group of enemy, but there are better units for fight versus numerous group of enemy Even if i have alredy have Hu Tao i will try for 1 copy of her, last time i have skip her banner for Raiden, but now before the 3.1 there aren't unit that interest me, soo no sense holding back
Maybe at c0 yes. But at high cons, yelan c4 already widen the gap between hutao and yoimiya, it almost feels like hutao gained another constellation, not to mention the incoming hydro resonance rework. Total of 65% hp buff for hutao
@@anonimus370 They don't lmao. Not before you expend a large amount of money for her c2. She doesn't apply anyway close to enough hydro application for hu tao to vape.
I'm thinking back to that one video on the chasm event that IWinToLose did and remember seeing every enemy disappear one by one as Yoimiya shot them once and I think that was the intended Yoimiya experience
10:14 has this been fact checked? Im sure this is not her best team bcs Yunjin is better than Bennett and Zhongli is wayy more practical than kazuha to ensure Yoimiya lands that massive dmging 5th hit uninterrupted. Edit: 12:02 now this is just straight up false. Her best support Yunjin is not top tier support for any other team besides her. There’s also Yelan who no other team uses because Xingqiu is arguably better bcs of dmg resistance and interruption resistance. The only top tier support Yoimiya really use is Zhongli which can be replaced with Thoma or any other shielder. So no Yoimiya does not hog all top tier supports to herself she is probably the best 2nd vaporise team you could use for spiral abyss because unlike Diluc or Hu Tao she DOESN’T hog top tier supports to herself. You’re giving the wrong impression to people who wanted her for a 2nd vape team in spiral abyss
I agree, I'm running Yoimiya with Yelan, Diona and Yunjin/ Mona. Bennett, Kazuha, Xingqiu and Zhongli are on the other team or not even used. I sometimes es switch Zhongli with Diona for the geo resonance, but the difference in damage is not much, it's just when I need a stronger shield. Not to mention that Beidou and Fischl work extremely well with her. If Yoimiya takes all the best supports, what about Raiden then lol, both her best teams require Kazuha, Bennett and Xingqiu
wow this is so true, i mean can have buffer either bennett or yunjin, can have sub dps from yelan / xingqiu/ fishcl/ beidou, can have shielder from zhongli / thoma, i think her teamcomp is so wide
1. "GENERAL USE". He said general use. basically just standard yoimiya team, just casual. the one you're talking about with yun jin is hypercarry yoimiya. 2. By what he meant hog is that she loves the top tier supports to unlock her max potential. sure, yun jin is not a top tier support, but I'd argue yelan, kazuha, and Bennett is.
the team he listed earlier is yois highest dmg potential team, iwintolose often focuses on nuke and record setting teams so his "best" teams are often different then what ur casual players best team would be. The thing about his 2nd statement is that its somewhat true but he didnt elaborate enough, yoimiya does often want high value supports like bennett, yelan, zhong, or even kazuha but the difference between her and many other 5 stars is that she isnt tied to any specific support, so even if u have to use bennett or kazu in another team u can still use the high value supports u have left over on yoi and she'll still work great. I think yunjin would be the only support thats really good on yoimiya that isnt necessarily high value, u could argue fischl too but I wouldnt say her best team comps include her
This is true. Yunjin is definitely the best support for Yoimiya in regards to damage increase. The other top tier supports she uses are replaceable. XQ can be replaced with Yelan or even Kokomi. Yoimiya's ICD makes Kokomi's hydro aura more prevalent. She can also use Fischl and even better at C6 due to rapid firing attacks, but you can also run beidou, Raiden, or Yae Miko. Yoimiya can run any shielder, even running Thoma better than Hu Tao due to flaming barrier occurence being quicker with Yoimiya, she can run TTDS TankFei much like Hu Tao as well as running Diona. Hu Tao actually hugs the top tier supports. You would never see Hu tao without XQ. Name a generally used Hu Tao team without him... point proven. Hu Tao would also use Kazuha or Sucrose, both of which are top tier based on what's needed [l-mntl dmg bonus or EM] and Hu Tao generally runs Tankfei or Zhongli, which kinda maker Thoma the designated support for yoimiya. So, the statement that Yoimiya hogs the top tier supports is like 25% true, and the top tier supports she hogs are interchangeable whereas Hu Tao's are strict considering order of vaping matters for her with a nonICD CA.
I got Kazuha and did another 70 pulls before finally getting Heizou so now I have 70 pity in, no guarantee, and exactly 20 more wishes for an even 90 total, I'm PRAYING i get her next 10 pulls with everything farmed for her to level 90 + 8/8/7 talents, lvl 90 aqua simulacra and an artifact set getting her 80%crit rate over 215% crit damage- i am READY for her
Got her right after Ayaka's first banner ended then also got Shogun right after Yoimiya's first banner ended too. Got Ayaka → got Yoimiya → got Shogun, won triple 50/50. The thing with Yoimiya is, she have the highest NA multiplier among all bow characters. Her role is a ranged single target dps, and i hate it when a bunch of 🤡 keeps comparing her with Hu Tao and calls Yoimiya as trash...like seriously...ppl have different ways to play and enjoy their game.
YES!... if you pair her with sub DPS like xingqiu, Fischl and beidou it would be worth it to use her burst at the end of the rotation since it would increase your overall DPS. But if you pair her with kazuha, yunjin, Zhongli/yelan then it is not necessary to use her burst(especially if you're using shimenawa/hamayumi) as they do not benefit much from it. (but if you're using TP, use her burst)
She deals a lot of damage in a short time, most of her damage comes from normal attacks and she's easy to use, personally i don't enjoy switching characters a lot of times even though that's the only way to deal big numbers in genshin so i just use zhongli for his shield and switch to yoimiya, honestly any character can deal big numbers in genshin if you find the right strategy so you shouldn't worry too much about meta, if you like her design you should pull for her
Even tho Yoimiya is outdamaged by HuTao, I still choose Yoimiya over HuTao anyday, because she has simpler game play that's all. She helps me clear Abyss 12 all the time, especially single target bosses
Back when i first got hutao i thought she is so good. But she is lock with constellation (if you are playing on mobile) its mandatory to get c1. But after i got yoimiya i dont use hutao that much anymore.
@yaaaan many say that jump cancelling is a viable strategy at c0, but im not sure for how long you are going to live with such a strategy, because I see so many Hu Taos (not only on Reddit but in real life as well) who talk about how running out of stamina is a regular thing of a c0 Hu Tao. I bet half of the c0 Hu Tao community would forgo potentially new characters for c1.
been saving for her rerun cos i want her so bad in my vaporize team, so i've prepared all of her stuffs and planning to c6 and get her signature weapon (artifact sets with decent stats, ascend materials, talents, and even got her sub weapons ready r5 rust, and hamayumi) i pray for all yoimiya wanters become yoimiya havers
When I first tried her I loved her gameplay but after I keep trying her in events I find myself liking her playstyle less. It's a shame really she's a nice character but not the playstyle for me
Her contribution during the archon quest never gets enough attention I feel... She literally helped vision holders escape the vision hunt decree by helping them get fake visions to give out
ganyu is not in the meta anymore, IMO. I will not choose a ganyu over yoimiya. and you dont need yelan or bennet or kazuha. i usually just do xinqu, and yoimiya everything dies. else i add a yunjin and we are good. she is my best pyro dps. cause she is just too easy to use and does insane damage. the only time i will use an hutao over her is CRYO hypostasis to one shot it.
The introduction of yujin gave yoimyia some amazing new style, without her she is still really good, but with yujin yoimia can get to hutao level of brokeness and even better in some scenarios.
I don't even use yunjin and my yoimiya does more damage than some 260 CRIT damage hu tao with staff of homa and those sweet 6k attack stat she easily reaches, so yeah. (R4 rust favonius Bennet 600 EM sucrose and yelan (no elegy)) gets me to easily do more than a million with E.
hutao has yelan+xq AND its leaked that hydro resonance will get a buff so the whole team gets 20% more HP instead of healing so hutao is getting an even bigger buff
I didn’t really want Yoimiya, but while trying to get Sayu last year she came home super early and I didn’t expect it. I didn’t know how to feel about it at first but wow, she’s one of my favorite characters to play! Pretty much since getting her I’ve ran her on my main team. No regrets! ♥️🧡
Super cute waifu and she's too tier for mobile players who just want to hit one button. Not many people talk about characters in a mobile context, which is why I think she's underrated by most
so excited for her rerun next week!! prefarmed for her level 8 talents and level 90 off the bat! level 90 Hamayumi and 2 piece shim 2 piece crimson witch ready too
I got her accidentally on her first banner, but after playing her I didn't mind getting her. One of my most used characters now in the overworld and abyss.
Can't wait for Yoimiya's banner and the addition of YunJin on her banner makes it even better. I've been saving for months for her rerun and have over 200 wishes right now.
Yoimiya rerun in like 2 days and I just started playing genshin 2 weeks ago, I hope I can get her. Saved up primos and fates for like 50 pulls only 😭😭😭
I must say you make the most balanced videos about characters, even with your personal opinions inserted you come off extremely kind but honest. I was going to pull her because I love her, even still this video is critical without being cruel. Thank you for this type of content. 🧡
As a Yoimiya haver, i can say for sure that Yoimiya is super fun to play, and if you invest time (a lot of time) farming her set, she can do everything (almost) in the overworld, and even the abyss with a proper team, i did Abyss 12 with Yoimiya Xinqiu, Zhongli and Bennett, and she absolutely vaporizes anything that comes across her path, I'm planning to get her bow now, wish me luck, and good luck for all of you that want our kind and cute firework Girl :D
Hey everyone! You can support my channel by simply SMASHING today's sponsor's link, Blade Idle: ggcont.me/3I3NTNc
Thank you and I wish the best of luck to all you Yoimiya wanters!
Im sorry, but I have to ask
So... are we getting the proper review (this year) that you talked about in the "C0" video ?
Has been a long wait...
Could you please add timestams in the video if it's easy for you. it helps alot.
Hi IWintolosegaming
Go up new tier list 2.8
Saludos and congratulations for your channel.
Te sigo desde q tenias 10k subs 😁😄
I will try for yoimiya later cuz i am comfortable with her playstyle, i really hope i get this time
Could u do a video on why yelan is a great addition to ur team and what yelan changed about ur way of play?
Yoimiya is the character for the lazy like me. No mechanics needed. Activate shield, activate xq burst and just stand there to pew pew the enemies to death.
Yep, this is why I main bow characters (mainly ganyu, yoimiya, and yelan). Just pop shield, stand in one spot and easily kill every type of enemy. No need to aim, move, worry about range. It's amazing.
@@hobart4678 I like bow characters but that sounds extremely boring, but for their own I guess
@@jeremyagramonte1865 hey people find wet sock girl fun to pkag some how lokll
@@jeremyagramonte1865 yeah but seeing numbers everywhere is dopamine
Same. Even in the Abyss, I always use Zhongli, Yoi, or Kokomi over my heavy invested unit like Hu Tao, Eula, or Xiangling. I don't want to restart the chamber because my unit dies or to recharge my burst. I just want my primos.
I enjoy running Yoi with Yelan, c6 Fischl and Zhongli. Not her best team but it still hits like a truck and looks like a laser light show. Breezed through the second half of floor 12 this rotation.
I mean... it's yelan and C6 fischl...
same team, replace zl with diona. awesome team.
@@enesjei pair those with other dps characters, it wont be as efficient. Thats how good yoimiya is as a NA driver
@@enesjei yoimiya is one of those 2's best driver. They are bad on team with characters that mostly rely on skill and burst.
@@genshin4822 sucrose, heizou, raiden, ayato even vv xiao
In terms of her banner, I have a feeling many would choose to save primos instead because of Sumeru coming very soon with new dendro characters and reactions. Yoimiya seems to have gotten the short end of the stick in banner timing again, with her previous banner being between Ayaka and Ei. Really is a shame since she is very fun to play
Hard to say. People might be out of primos from kazu banner and ppl dont really seem to be all that interested in the 5 star on 3.0 banner. Could depend on whats rerun but if u were close to pity and want to try for the 4 stars without wanting the 5 than she may be a good option to pull
I've heard that 3.0 rerun is Zhongli Ganyu again. But regardless, if you like the character, just pull for them. No need to calculate in advance
@@kyoma8556 not really calculating, just speculating what people will do and for a lot of people, primo gems are quite valuable.
There are also rumors that Zhongli and Ganyu are getting a rerun
I am only pulling for Bennett and Yunjin cons tbh, After losing 50/50 so much I don't have any doubt anymore. It's safe to pull lol
The thing with Yunjin's buff is that it gets multiplied when Yoimiya crits.
Edit: I tested Yunjin's buff. However, these NA damage numbers are slightly rough estimates but enough to see the significance.
My Yoimiya has
77.5% Crit Rate
174.4% Crit Damage
Below are the resulting damage numbers of her first normal attacks:
*Physical
No Yunjin buff
>Not crit: 1,300
>Crit : 3,800
With Yunjin buff
>Not crit: 3600
>Crit: 10,500
*Pyro infused NA
No Yunjin buff
>Not crit: 2,800
>Crit : 8,000
With Yunjin buff
>Not crit: 5,700
>Crit: 16,500
In short, with Yunjin's buff, you don't have to worry in getting to Yoimiya's last NA because Yunjin's buff works well on buffing low multipliers i.e. Yoimiya's first NA. This also makes it possible to dodge and shoot so you can get rid of a shielder like Zhongli and just replace him with a sub dps or a buffer like Bennett.
This is how I play and get 36 stars in Abyss with her. But if I want to be comfortable, I can use Zhongli so I could just ungga bungga but still kill things with ease.
Oh really? I still didn't build yunjin for her. I'll do now
elaborate please
True. Bonus Damage and Crit Damage multiply it. That's how flat damage works. It gets added to the sheet attack which is your total attack × skill multiplier.
@@jinrex2445 Someone just explained it ^
Exactly the problem with her kit (well not problem, lets say, quirk). She needs to CRIT. If she is not CRIT'ing, then she might as well be dancing on the field. Contrary to many earlier belief, Yoimiya can be super resin expensive if you want carrying the team through abyss. I am still grinding for 90% CR after 4months. Still no end in sight.
Yes, I have had little Yoi baby since she was shunned by people last year and have pretty much regularly had her on my teams. But I only got serious about grinding domains because thats the actual meta for this game lol and because abyss floor 12. If you just play normal overworld stuff - yea, she can cheese through all of it. Just left click to eternity. And some dodge obviously
I really like Yoimiya, even if she's not meta I've been saving up everything for her, i couldn't get her a year ago but now I have 69 pitty and ~62 wishes, on s 50/50 but I'm sure I'll be able to get her, i just need to farm a little more talent books and some samachurls for lvl 90 talents 10 8 8
Edit: I got her, c6'd my noelle, and got some yunjin constellations, now my yoimiya is lvl 90 talents 10 9 1
Edit 2: crowned Yoimiyas E

Edit: this is me coping lol
Yoimiya is great on par with xiao and itto.

Yoimiya aged really well! She looks exactly the same a year later!
the corpse in my basement also aged really well. looks exactly the same, just that the bones are kinda disarranged cuz of those damn rats
Yunjin, yelan, echoes, spectres, thunder manifestation, mechanical array, wolflord, ruin serpent, more ranged enemies coming in sumeru... yep game definitely hasnt changed this past year!
@@runic6452 bro?? 😭😭😭
Even though she isn't the best, she is my favorite character by far, and her dps is far more satisfying then it needs to be for a f2p build, triple crowned and everything. even with some issues, shes still so much fun
I genuinely want to understand:
What's fun about yoimiya? I'd like to know your opinion
@@prosamis uhhh Uhhhh UHHH UHHHHHHHHHH
@@prosamis her fast Normal attack playstyle is very satisfying, she’s almost like a machine gun, plus she does it with very cute animations so it’s very fun in my opinion
@@prosamis going around with her fast NA playstyle is fun and satisfying, and in games I love to make underrated characters really strong and better then whatever is meta. Not only that but I actually like her character from her story quest and I love her outfit
@@lucasweeks6411 I see, I see!
I can definitely see the enjoyment and satisfaction of going brrrrrrrrrrr
I’m pulling for her because her autotargetting is so useful especially when you are facing something like an annoying flying boss like the wolflord. Also I really like her as a character! Manifesting to win my 50/50 🤞🏼🤞🏼
Have you tried Yomiya vs electro cicin mages. I bet you love to torture yourself
Seeing your comment after she helped me beat the flying Thunder Manifestation in the abyss 😂 🫱🏾🫲🏼
Owning both a tp Yoimiya and homa hutao, I use yoi much more. She’s so convenient, easy to use and does really good damage. I can’t wait to get constellations for her
what cons are you getting her? c2?
how versatile is the TP bow on other bow users?
damn same. I havent used my hutao in like an year or so just because yoimiya is so convinient to use
I have both C1 Hutao and C0 Yoimiya, and while Hutao can do very high damage, her playstyle feels like you'd have to sacrifice fun for big damage numbers; Yoimiya on the other hand is more fun to play, despite may not be able to do as much damage in short burst.
If I am being honest, I find play Diluc more fun and satisfying than Hutao, despite he got shatted on by meta-slaves.
A lot of characters are more convenient than Hu Tao tbf
I’ve just been wondering why they didn’t put heizou in her banner. That way she would at least get some more attention and sales. It could at least balance the over time profits. I think she will not do well due to Kazuha and Heizou together on one banner.
Would have made more sense
I think she will still have a lot of sales. I think more than itto for sure
Because putting 2 desirable characters on a single banner is strategic. It means tha someone who wanted kazuha and heizou has to pull on kazuhas banner. And if they do not get it they wont have time to save. This will make it more difficukt for people who only want heizou.
@@drained1177 Actually, putting two widely desired characters on different banners would probably give them more sales. People might want both, and they might spend all their primogems on the Kazuha/Klee banner, then turn to buying genesis crystals to get Heizou on Yoimiya’s banner.
@@Lemural Not a lot of people who want Heizou want Yoimiya tho. In terms of enjoyment from the majority of the community, they want Kazuha (like me personally)
For people who dont have a high refinement rust: You can use the 3 star weapon, Slingshot at r5. The 0.3 second hit window is quite large and its low attack can be made up with bennett. The Slingshot can actually outdamage an r5 rust in some scenarios.
Some scenarios? you mean using charged shots on her?
Pretty sure that it's impossible for slingshot to outdamage rust in any situation
Not necessarily an r5 rust, but the Slingshot at r5is a decent weapon
By some scenarios they mean it can be better cause the 30% cr lets you optimise articats more towards crit damage and with bennett you make up for the lower attack stat, especially since it has a massive damage modifier on it.
R u on drugs?
She’s super nice, ok in terms of gameplay, but her story design is amazing
Agreee!
Uh what's her story again? I don't remember..
@@Drakenlord ill try to tl;dr she opposed the vision hunt decree, help some, saved some

@@zyydna ah yeah we broke into prison right
I accidentally got Yoimiya last Summer when she-and Sayu, who I was actually rolling for-first came out. At the time I was a little disappointed, but now she's one of my favorite characters to use, especially with supports like Xingqiu or Yelan. She's just so much fun!!!
haha, rolling for. nice
You're a madman, rolling on a banner with a 5* you don't want for a 4* haha. Glad it worked out.
@@BloodPlusPwn I mean, loads of people do it.
@@Lemural loads of mad people. It's not impossible that you might get 4 5*s before you get a single 4* you want lol
@@Lemural its not logical since 4 stars don't have a guarantee you have 3 rate ups without guarantee+ other 4 stars+ all gacha weapons which in all makes it lesser probable to get than the banner 5 star
I don’t get why people say she’s “fine”. Her damage is amazing and pairing her with supports like yelan, Bennett, yun Jin and so on will make her destroy the game.
The reason is she hogs more top tier supports to perform worse than a character that came out before her
@@Nhyufll debatable. Her paired with yelan, Bennett, and yun Jin is amazing and she definitely does not perform worse. She’s more comfortable to play than hu Tao because of hu Taos hp sacrificing and complex mechanics.
Bc of her lack of AOE and the fact that her ult is virtually useless. Still love her tho, just wish hoyoverse gave her at least a little more of AOE, since her entire theme revolves around fireworks..
@@devilsadvocate7474 i wouldnt call her ult useless, on shimi its usually up right when your skill ends so you can use it before swapping her out and it adds a decent amount of extra damage. It even buffs her pyro damage on c2 though who the hell even has c2. I only really do this in the abyss though as its really kind of overkill in the overworld. Its not a useless ult but it definitely isnt anywhere near the best in the game
Her damage is not amazing. She doesn't work well with Yun Jin, the video explains it well.
im not playing this for almost 1 year and before i forget i have to tell you. You are are the BEST youtuber, steamer, content creator etc this game could ever had. thankyou and good bye
Yoimiya is my first limited 5* character and my only 50/50 win at that (I've lost 7 50/50s in a row after her). Yoimiya has carried me from AR 21 all the way now to AR 57. She's my only triple crowned character and easily my most well-built one at that (w/ 2.2k atk 79/180 crit on 4pc Shimenawa and an R2 Rust). She's been in my overworld team since the day I got her and that will probably never change. I also use her all the time in abyss, in various kinds of teams, and she still carries my runs to a full 36* clear. Whenever my friends need help farming bosses, specters, or the rifthounds, they always ask me to bring my Yoimiya, because she makes things much easier.
I had heard of the issues that theory crafters and content creators were saying about her, which was by the way super exaggerated and they were being very biased, when she first came out but I still pulled for her regardless because I enjoyed her playstyle, loved her design, and adored her personality and story quest. Seriously she did not and will never deserve any of the hate that anyone directed to her as she is far from the worst character in the entire game and is actually one of the most compassionate, caring, and wholesome characters lorewise
Its ironic that so many players agree with Waifu/husbando over meta yet when someone balanced like Yoimiya came out ppl riot
When I first pulled for Raiden people told me not to and that she sucked but I pulled anyway (lost the 50/50 back then but got her on her most recent banner). Ignoring the wide opinions of the community is best. I will be pulling for Yoimiya for the first time. Hope I win the 50/50. :)
@@Azaleaaah A lot of people agree with waifu > meta and a lot of people don’t. It’s still a lot of people on both sides, they’re not gonna all agree.
I feel sorry for you to get Yoimidya as your first character she's meh trash character 🗑️🗑️🗑️
@@Mark-xw5yt pretty sure most care about meta without noticing. Otherwise why was Kokomi and Yoimiya so hated before and why was Yae loved but hated after ppl find out she's not meta enough
I'm gonna be using her with Yelan, so I'm really excited!
omgg that will be amazing for vaporize!!
are you building her for em or atk%??
yoimiya is the only character i wanted that wasn't based off of meta, i wanted her simply for her character design and her endearing personality... i've been debating on finish building her to lvl 90 and crowning her NA(thx for the correction) and E, since I do have a R5 Rust and a somewhat decent shimenawa set so her current stat is at lvl 79 and 75/166
If you want to crown her, you need to crown her Normal Attack first before her E skill. Her skill transforms and enhances her NA into pyro infused arrows but her dmg is reliant on the NA multipliers of her talent. Her skill does not deal any damage, it only improves her NA dmg.
I've got her on release just because of her yelling while using the Q and her animations while attacking. That alone made me think "to hell with it, I'll gonna burn my guaranteed pull on her!" after holding it since a 50/50 dreadful loss at Childe. And i never regretted it since, after all, 2 weeks before her banner I also got my first 5* weapon and it was an amos bow. She's now my best and funniest DPS, specially when pairing with Raiden.
I have been waiting for her rerun since I love her design and easy gameplay. It sucks that she's after Kazuha and right before Sumeru. Hopefully I can get her early and start saving primos for Nilou and Kusanali. Good luck to anyone wishing for her!
Im gonna pull no matter what, she seems so fun
Yessssss, join us~
I will too but thats just because I'm a dolphin and I want them all tbh
Don't pull for a trash like yoimidya 🗑️🗑️🗑️🗑️🗑️
I'd argue her flexibility and great synergy with most supports and subdps' is also a huge bonus in her favor, you can run her in so many comps it's not even funny. Not all characters in this game can afford you this many playstyles. Not all of them are made equal, but having the variety also helps with team building and makes the game more fun.

Yall saying her burst is useless because of Shimenawa... Use Bollide so that you can spam her burst and do vape Aurous Blaze dmg with Xq or Yelan. Using her burst first in a rotation can buff xq's rain sword dmg or Yelan's ult. Bollide also further fortifies her shield making her normal attk chains hard to interrupt

@@livestroke9619 less cuter*
just pull for whoever you like more,pulling just for meta is really bad, i have hu tao since her first banner and even tho she is absolutely strong, i dont like her playstyle and so i regret pulling for
My personal dilemma is to pull for C2 Kazuha or wait for the sumeru characters.
As someone with a staff of homa hu tao since patch 1.3, I chose yoimiya over her the vast majority of the time if I need a pyro dps 😅 On paper single target doesn’t sound as good, but yoimiya with good supports is just so strong and convenient and kills everything so easily that it doesn’t matter at all lol
ive found yoimiya really fun to play recently, yelan really improved my enjoyment of her as well, i dont like the feel of hutaos charged attack playstyle and diluc got boring after 6 months, i think for most players who end up passively farming a good shimenawas she will probably suprise you with her consistency. of all my teams she one phases the raiden shogun boss the fastest and does so consistently.
also any one having issues with ruin serpent give her a shot, she decimates it
(I typed this before watching the video, so I’ll probably repeat a number of things that he says in the vid ^^;)
I got Yoimiya during her first banner, around AR 45. I was initially let down since she didn’t do big numbers like my friends’ characters, however after way too long I’ve finally given her the artifacts she deserves, an aqua simulacra and a bunch of supports for her team (Zhongli, Bennett, and now Kazuha).
She is by far my favourite character to play: her attack animations are beautiful and *with support* her single target numbers are on par with my ganyu’s. Seriously. She can deal 80-120k per round of attacks. Seeing the health bar drain on big enemies is super satisfying to watch.
The key things to note for Yoimiya is that support is vital. She’s definitely capable at soloing, however she is a squishy character and very much appreciates a shield.
Bennett, Yunjin, Kazuha, Xingqui, and Yelan are all great options for her, because she can either work in a vape or mono pyro team.
She is single target. She can take down a few targets simultaneously but cc characters are simply better at her at dealing with large groups. The issue is less prevalent with kazuha in your team, but for abyss always have Yoimiya going against the big enemies.
As like every character, getting a good build/team for Yoimiya will take time- however I wholeheartedly believe that Yoimiya is one of the most rewarding characters to play
Good luck Yoimiya wanters! 👍
If I fail to get Kazuha by the time his banner ends I wouldn’t mind getting yoimiya because I personally find her range to be her best attribute, especially in the abyss when there’s a ton of ranged/airborne units
Bette not, ether wait for hu tao rerun or look at sumeru charecters, maybe dendro will strongly change the meta
@@Poet_from_ice i don't like hu tao because of her being strictly melee. yoimiya is a better option for people like me
@@carb_8781 for people like you there is ganyu rerun in the next patch. And once again wait for sumeru
@@Poet_from_ice already got hu tao but she doesn’t have any range so she’s useless in ranged combat unlike yoimiya

Best Videos for falling asleep to, in a totally good way. So calming, relaxing and you don't have to look onscreen to understand what's going on
I was one of the few ppl who actually chose to skip both Kazuha and Ayaka because I was planning to pull for Yoimiya. never regret it until today.
Skipped Ayaka for Yoimiya when they were announced, never regretted it
I got Yoimiya on her first banner and I still absolutely love her!
Been using her mainly in overloaded teams and with her I'm having so much more fun than with a majority of units in this game.
When i found any trouble killing something i use Yoimiya with Zhongli, Raiden and Yae, and i just love the overload chaos that happens! So many things flying away in multiple explosions...
Ok ok last year I DID pull her mainly because of the pretzel thing and I DID pull ittou for the exact same reason
Pretzel supremacy!
finally, fighting flight enemy is one of the most important kit in yoimiya and u emphasize it. most content creator dont even touch on that aspect.
I love yoimiya so much, and I often take her to abyss when the enemies have large HP pools. She hasn't failed me yet to 36* my abyss runs. She might not be meta but she's so easy to play and you only need her at c0 to shred. I run her with c3 yun jin, c0 zhongli and c6 xingqiu and its a very fun team to play I think.
I play mainly on mobile and she's very easy to play. No complicated mechanics to optimize her. Just shield her (Zhongli, Thoma, Diona, etc.), use her with other supports or sub-DPS (preferably Yun Jin, Bennet, Yelan/XQ, Beidou, Fishcl), and your set. You can regularly 36* the Abyss with her various team comps too. She just got better over time with the release of mobile and flying enemies and in the form of characters such as Yelan and Yun Jin
Let me clarify something about Yoimiya's lack of of AOE. It doesn't mean that she's weak against groups of smaller enemies. Quite the contrary. Let me give a real world example. A machine gun also doesn't have any AOE, but it is one of the most effective anti-infantry weapons. Same with Yoimiya. Yes, she can only kill mobs 1 by 1, but she does it so quickly that she feels like a one man firing squad. You literally mow down groups of hilichurls or treasure hoarders. The only situation she struggles with is when there are two or three beefy enemies at the same time, and the fight is time gated. Which normally only happens in the abyss. Apart from being ill-suited for that specific scenario, she is absolutely fine as a DPS.
Even that particular situation of beefy enemies is pretty much irrelevant with a well-built vape team. Hydro shreds the shit out of basically everything
Her range and high attack speed make her really good vs those annoying abyss waves where you have 5 hilichurl ranged units spread 100 miles apart from eachother. AoE doesn't matter if grouping enemies at all is an issue.
Finally someone says this. Aoe don't matter if each enemy can be mowed down one by one
thing is tho a full em kazuha on yoimiya team would mow down a group of enemies just from swirl so you dont need to have crazy aoe on yoimiya
@@Grapejellyification Yeah using Hu Tao is a bit of a struggle with annoying non clumped hillichurls. Not only do I lose stamina for running, it also takes time
Iwtl: "I predominantly use Yoimiya on the other side of the abyss 12 that im not showcasing for most of my videos"
He may not saying it out loud because people always get triggered but that's probably a confession from Iwtl saying that she's the best because she is reliable.
No need to fish for huge crit on ult, no tedious setup and no floor restart. Just use E and delete the floor.
Shes my main since the moment the specters came out i was like i need her since they didn't get nerf at that time very good single dps target especially in bosses that doesn't have pyro immune
Already have hutao, ganyu, ayaka, and raiden but imma still pull yoimiya. You can't stop me.
People often compare C1 Hu Tao with Homa to Yoimiya with Pulse and they say that Yoimiya sucks.
Yoimiya is much more f2p friendly. Her constellations and weapon are a minor improvement over C0 Rust. A f2p Yoimiya is practically the same as Hu Tao.
Yoimiya is also much more flexible when it comes to teams. Meanwhile Hu Tao is so reliant on charged attack that she is forced to be run with vape. Hu Tao best team has Zhongli and Albedo. Meanwhile Yoimiya's best team uses Zhongli and Yunjin instead of Albedo.
Hu Tao is clunky forcing players to cancel animations for optimal play. She also has major stamina issues that her C1 fixes. Hu Tao also prefers to stay at low health. This is a major downside when damage goes through shields like corrode or when self damaging reactions come out Hu Tao with dendro.
People who have Hu Tao will say that Yoimiya is bad.
People who have Yoimiya will say that she's fine.
People who have both will say that Hu To is slightly better but they will end up using Yoimiya for convenience.
No.
Yep, I have both. I prefer Yoi than Tao.
I agree to almost everything you said up until you said Hu Tao was clunky
1. Pressing space each time you charge attack doesnt require any skill so i dont get what you mean by clunky (unless your on mobile, you'd definitely be better off with Yoimiya)
2. Hu tao prefers to be under 50% but Hu tao's 50% is Yoimiya's full health so i dont see any problem
3. As long as you dont sprint cancel on c0 Hu Tao you will have more than enough stamina each rotation for your charge attacks
4. And lastly i want to point out just cause a 5* is required for their "best" team doesnt mean they are less versatile as Hu Tao can run 4 star supports just as well as Yoimiya (Hu Tao, Tankfei, Sucrose, Xingqiu is one of the team that i use from time to time)
I would like to point out i have both Yoimiya and Hu Tao so im not hating or have anything against Yoimiya havers
Albedo is not hutao best team now, vv vape and double hydro already beat it
My Yoimiya team is the team I have used the most since she came out. I'm AR 60 with basically my pick of most of the roster but I keep coming back to her. She's a very comfy character to relax and play. I feel like a lot of the Genshin community is so conditioned to look for damage per screenshot that they devalue ease of use.
As a happy Yoi main, she’s very fun to play! Shes my strongest character for boss fights but also one of the most fun units in my roster. Good luck to any Yoimiya wanters!!
Yes I’ve been waiting for this!
i would say yoimiya has the most freedom when it comes to team building and works with the most characters out of any dps in the game.
as someone who got her in her first banner , i can safely say she's still my favourite char (raiden close second) in fact she's my only crowned char , i run her with r2 rust (ik unlucky) yet she is still able to clear abyss , if u like her and her insanely cute va and normal attack animation definetly get her she will carry you in single target situations and she's a flexible unit as she has a ton of teams ( vapr , overvape , overload...)
anyways , i hope all yoimiya wanters will be yoimiya havers :D
Yoimiya is my absolute favorite character in the entire Game. I love her design, her lovely personality, her gorgeous animations, it is lovely.
While I do love Yelan a bit more because her design and playstyle are fabulous, nothing could replace Yoimiya's place in my heart.
She is great, she is spunky and fun, and she will be the first character I ever actually whale for.
Same, she's my fav and bo one else even comes close, after ganyu, zhongli and kusanali im saving all my primos until her 2nd rerun to c6 her
Yelan feels a lot like Yoimiya tbh. Less damage but she doesn’t miss, more fun because of her E, and much better uptime if your ER is good enough. I pretty much use my yelan like a yoimiya in overworld. It’s gonna be fun to use them together soon
Yoimidya
imma proud Yoimiya haver since day 1 i have her triple crowned and i love her so much
A proud Yoimiya haver here. She's very fun to play no cap. I usually use new characters to farm for their friendship exp but with Yoimiya, I didn't even realize that she's already friendship 10 cuz her gameplay is so interesting
Yoimiya with both yelan and xinqui looks like a machine gun..And I love it
As much hate Yoimiya got when she got released, I stood by her and enjoyed how she plays. She will always have this special place in my heart.
I just realized that Yoimiya is the most recent pyro 5* we got, one year ago. Time for a new addition i say.
I love Yoimiya. I've been using her as my Main Pyro DPS over Hu Tao. She doesn't consume stamina, she's ranged, she doesn't miss, you barely have to move her when attacking so long as she has a shield, etc.
Yoimiya is my favourite DPS in the game. Using her with Fischl, Zhongli and Xingqiu. I just love her fast spam clicking playstyle with her infused attacks which is also a very comfortable because you can just stand and spam click. She isn't as strong as Hu Tao but she is definitely good enough to do 36* Abyss and between Hu Tao, Ayaka, Raiden and Yoimiya, Yoimiya is my dps of choice.
+She is absolutely adorable and her ornaments are really pretty.
So yeah, I recommend trying her out in the trial because she is really fun to play.
I really like Yoimiya. I was really happy when I got her. Exploring became so much easier since I don't need to constantly switch teams when there's flying enemies, torches, enemies on towers etc. A very comfortable unit to use, you just neet to click auto atk especially when you have a good shielder.
I pulled on her banner last year and got her. She is now one of my most built character, simply because of how much emblem sets I have to farm. I plan to go for her bow if it comes back.
Hu tao is great, but doesn't make yoimiya a bad character.
I think that thanks to Yelan, she is finally in a far better position, than she was in the past. In the past, when she was released, no one played her, because Hu Tao did in her team better, which was also a good team for Yoimiya. However, now with Yelan addition, even Yoimiya can get a good partner and her top team, which you have showed is really META team. It can really slain enemies so fast that even Hu Tao's team is basically just a little bit faster. So yea, she is finally penetrating meta, which is so good and I'm happy for her. I don't have her, but I have C5 bennet and Yelan with Kazuha, so she is the last part and the most primary role, which I still need and which I lack, so I will definitely go for her and have a fun with her. I wanted her first time too, but I chose Ayaka that time, they were in the same time, so I needed skip her, but now I will try to get her.
Did you get her?
Did you get her?
Truth to be told, in this days with the Yun Jin and Yelan comp she deal more damage of Hu Tao vs boss especially if they have mobility and/or can fly like Ruin Serpent and Golden Wolflord and she work very well with 4 star bow like Rust and she is easy to use.
Hu Tao win vs group of enemy, but there are better units for fight versus numerous group of enemy
Even if i have alredy have Hu Tao i will try for 1 copy of her, last time i have skip her banner for Raiden, but now before the 3.1 there aren't unit that interest me, soo no sense holding back
Well, she needs another 5 star support to outperform Hu Tao, that doesn't sound very good for Yoimiya.
Maybe at c0 yes. But at high cons, yelan c4 already widen the gap between hutao and yoimiya, it almost feels like hutao gained another constellation, not to mention the incoming hydro resonance rework. Total of 65% hp buff for hutao
@Anon Imus having a great synergy with all supports especially the best ones is a huge plus.
@@zed60k47 I recon Hu Tao with Yelan have better synergy anyway.
@@anonimus370 They don't lmao. Not before you expend a large amount of money for her c2. She doesn't apply anyway close to enough hydro application for hu tao to vape.
I'm thinking back to that one video on the chasm event that IWinToLose did and remember seeing every enemy disappear one by one as Yoimiya shot them once and I think that was the intended Yoimiya experience
10:14 has this been fact checked? Im sure this is not her best team bcs Yunjin is better than Bennett and Zhongli is wayy more practical than kazuha to ensure Yoimiya lands that massive dmging 5th hit uninterrupted.
Edit: 12:02 now this is just straight up false. Her best support Yunjin is not top tier support for any other team besides her. There’s also Yelan who no other team uses because Xingqiu is arguably better bcs of dmg resistance and interruption resistance. The only top tier support Yoimiya really use is Zhongli which can be replaced with Thoma or any other shielder. So no Yoimiya does not hog all top tier supports to herself she is probably the best 2nd vaporise team you could use for spiral abyss because unlike Diluc or Hu Tao she DOESN’T hog top tier supports to herself. You’re giving the wrong impression to people who wanted her for a 2nd vape team in spiral abyss
I agree, I'm running Yoimiya with Yelan, Diona and Yunjin/ Mona. Bennett, Kazuha, Xingqiu and Zhongli are on the other team or not even used. I sometimes es switch Zhongli with Diona for the geo resonance, but the difference in damage is not much, it's just when I need a stronger shield. Not to mention that Beidou and Fischl work extremely well with her. If Yoimiya takes all the best supports, what about Raiden then lol, both her best teams require Kazuha, Bennett and Xingqiu
wow this is so true, i mean can have buffer either bennett or yunjin, can have sub dps from yelan / xingqiu/ fishcl/ beidou, can have shielder from zhongli / thoma, i think her teamcomp is so wide
1. "GENERAL USE". He said general use. basically just standard yoimiya team, just casual. the one you're talking about with yun jin is hypercarry yoimiya.
2. By what he meant hog is that she loves the top tier supports to unlock her max potential. sure, yun jin is not a top tier support, but I'd argue yelan, kazuha, and Bennett is.
the team he listed earlier is yois highest dmg potential team, iwintolose often focuses on nuke and record setting teams so his "best" teams are often different then what ur casual players best team would be. The thing about his 2nd statement is that its somewhat true but he didnt elaborate enough, yoimiya does often want high value supports like bennett, yelan, zhong, or even kazuha but the difference between her and many other 5 stars is that she isnt tied to any specific support, so even if u have to use bennett or kazu in another team u can still use the high value supports u have left over on yoi and she'll still work great. I think yunjin would be the only support thats really good on yoimiya that isnt necessarily high value, u could argue fischl too but I wouldnt say her best team comps include her
This is true. Yunjin is definitely the best support for Yoimiya in regards to damage increase. The other top tier supports she uses are replaceable. XQ can be replaced with Yelan or even Kokomi. Yoimiya's ICD makes Kokomi's hydro aura more prevalent. She can also use Fischl and even better at C6 due to rapid firing attacks, but you can also run beidou, Raiden, or Yae Miko. Yoimiya can run any shielder, even running Thoma better than Hu Tao due to flaming barrier occurence being quicker with Yoimiya, she can run TTDS TankFei much like Hu Tao as well as running Diona.
Hu Tao actually hugs the top tier supports. You would never see Hu tao without XQ. Name a generally used Hu Tao team without him... point proven. Hu Tao would also use Kazuha or Sucrose, both of which are top tier based on what's needed [l-mntl dmg bonus or EM] and Hu Tao generally runs Tankfei or Zhongli, which kinda maker Thoma the designated support for yoimiya.
So, the statement that Yoimiya hogs the top tier supports is like 25% true, and the top tier supports she hogs are interchangeable whereas Hu Tao's are strict considering order of vaping matters for her with a nonICD CA.
I got Kazuha and did another 70 pulls before finally getting Heizou so now I have 70 pity in, no guarantee, and exactly 20 more wishes for an even 90 total, I'm PRAYING i get her next 10 pulls with everything farmed for her to level 90 + 8/8/7 talents, lvl 90 aqua simulacra and an artifact set getting her 80%crit rate over 215% crit damage- i am READY for her
Got her right after Ayaka's first banner ended then also got Shogun right after Yoimiya's first banner ended too.
Got Ayaka → got Yoimiya → got Shogun, won triple 50/50.
The thing with Yoimiya is, she have the highest NA multiplier among all bow characters.
Her role is a ranged single target dps, and i hate it when a bunch of 🤡 keeps comparing her with Hu Tao and calls Yoimiya as trash...like seriously...ppl have different ways to play and enjoy their game.
I love Yoimiya sm and defitnly pulling for her during her rerun!!
wait! doesn’t her burst increase attack up to 20% too, for the sub dps’ on her team
Correct!
YES!... if you pair her with sub DPS like xingqiu, Fischl and beidou it would be worth it to use her burst at the end of the rotation since it would increase your overall DPS. But if you pair her with kazuha, yunjin, Zhongli/yelan then it is not necessary to use her burst(especially if you're using shimenawa/hamayumi) as they do not benefit much from it. (but if you're using TP, use her burst)
Still yoimidya
thank you for including the phys yoimiya build as b-roll
She deals a lot of damage in a short time, most of her damage comes from normal attacks and she's easy to use, personally i don't enjoy switching characters a lot of times even though that's the only way to deal big numbers in genshin so i just use zhongli for his shield and switch to yoimiya, honestly any character can deal big numbers in genshin if you find the right strategy so you shouldn't worry too much about meta, if you like her design you should pull for her
Been waiting for her rerun for so long. Didn't have enough to secure her last time.
Best girl
Yoi is my daily driver ever since I rolled her in her first banner and never regretted rolling her.
Even tho Yoimiya is outdamaged by HuTao, I still choose Yoimiya over HuTao anyday, because she has simpler game play that's all. She helps me clear Abyss 12 all the time, especially single target bosses
I wish her E worked like Ayato where I could just hold left click for less spamming. Would be perfect.
Back when i first got hutao i thought she is so good. But she is lock with constellation (if you are playing on mobile) its mandatory to get c1. But after i got yoimiya i dont use hutao that much anymore.
It definitely isn’t mandatory to get her c1 even as mobile you just have to practice jump cancelling
@@Grey-vp5db after a while you will get tired of jump cancelling
@yaaaan many say that jump cancelling is a viable strategy at c0, but im not sure for how long you are going to live with such a strategy, because I see so many Hu Taos (not only on Reddit but in real life as well) who talk about how running out of stamina is a regular thing of a c0 Hu Tao. I bet half of the c0 Hu Tao community would forgo potentially new characters for c1.
been saving for her rerun cos i want her so bad in my vaporize team, so i've prepared all of her stuffs and planning to c6 and get her signature weapon (artifact sets with decent stats, ascend materials, talents, and even got her sub weapons ready r5 rust, and hamayumi)
i pray for all yoimiya wanters become yoimiya havers
When I first tried her I loved her gameplay but after I keep trying her in events I find myself liking her playstyle less. It's a shame really she's a nice character but not the playstyle for me
Im always proud to pull for yoimiya since the first release
Her contribution during the archon quest never gets enough attention I feel... She literally helped vision holders escape the vision hunt decree by helping them get fake visions to give out
shes really good against bosses that move around alot like thunder manifestation and ruin serpent, which are also both on the abyss rn
ganyu is not in the meta anymore, IMO. I will not choose a ganyu over yoimiya. and you dont need yelan or bennet or kazuha. i usually just do xinqu, and yoimiya everything dies. else i add a yunjin and we are good. she is my best pyro dps. cause she is just too easy to use and does insane damage. the only time i will use an hutao over her is CRYO hypostasis to one shot it.
I think Yoimiya is currently leading the second-half abyss speedrun now
The introduction of yujin gave yoimyia some amazing new style, without her she is still really good, but with yujin yoimia can get to hutao level of brokeness and even better in some scenarios.
I don't even use yunjin and my yoimiya does more damage than some 260 CRIT damage hu tao with staff of homa and those sweet 6k attack stat she easily reaches, so yeah.
(R4 rust favonius Bennet 600 EM sucrose and yelan (no elegy)) gets me to easily do more than a million with E.
hutao has yelan+xq AND its leaked that hydro resonance will get a buff so the whole team gets 20% more HP instead of healing
so hutao is getting an even bigger buff
@@_hector__ what a shame that hoyo gives buffs to newer hydro characters and not the older ones
I believe she was the first character that I simply pulled out of sympathy. She's such a sunshine, I couldn't resist.
I didn’t really want Yoimiya, but while trying to get Sayu last year she came home super early and I didn’t expect it. I didn’t know how to feel about it at first but wow, she’s one of my favorite characters to play! Pretty much since getting her I’ve ran her on my main team. No regrets! ♥️🧡
Super cute waifu and she's too tier for mobile players who just want to hit one button. Not many people talk about characters in a mobile context, which is why I think she's underrated by most
My first thought too her being mobile friendly.
for the bills! definitely appreciate the commentary and dad puns
My first triple crowned character. I love Yoi so muchh. She deserves all the love in the world. 🥰
fun fact:her normal attacks' are made so that with xinque the 3rd and the 5th hit will vape witch are the highest multiplies in her normal attacks
not to mention her personailty. she so bubble and cute
Yoimiya is such a comfort character, I love her.
so excited for her rerun next week!! prefarmed for her level 8 talents and level 90 off the bat! level 90 Hamayumi and 2 piece shim 2 piece crimson witch ready too
video is about yomiya.
me: kazuha in this video looks fun to play. especially looting drops!
I got her accidentally on her first banner, but after playing her I didn't mind getting her. One of my most used characters now in the overworld and abyss.
Can't wait for Yoimiya's banner and the addition of YunJin on her banner makes it even better.
I've been saving for months for her rerun and have over 200 wishes right now.
I got her in her debut, and I love use her
Yoimiya rerun in like 2 days and I just started playing genshin 2 weeks ago, I hope I can get her. Saved up primos and fates for like 50 pulls only 😭😭😭
I must say you make the most balanced videos about characters, even with your personal opinions inserted you come off extremely kind but honest. I was going to pull her because I love her, even still this video is critical without being cruel. Thank you for this type of content. 🧡
After knowing 3.0 banner is like that, i wholeheartedly all in pull for thundering pulse and yoimiya. No regret at all
As a Yoimiya haver, i can say for sure that Yoimiya is super fun to play, and if you invest time (a lot of time) farming her set, she can do everything (almost) in the overworld, and even the abyss with a proper team, i did Abyss 12 with Yoimiya Xinqiu, Zhongli and Bennett, and she absolutely vaporizes anything that comes across her path, I'm planning to get her bow now, wish me luck, and good luck for all of you that want our kind and cute firework Girl :D
Good luck on getting her weapon. Wish me luck on winning my 50/50 with Yoimiya. :)
@@mischarowe Good luck my friend, may she come for you as well :D
