Is It Worth Pulling For Yelan In Genshin Impact?
Shortly, yes,Yelan is worth getting inGenshin Impact. As one of the most overpowered characters in the game, it is not easy for someone to be compared with Xingqiu; yet Yelan managed to do so. People who have been dying to have two Xingqiu in their game should definitely pull for Yelan.
However, for those still in doubt, here are some things they need to know before pulling for Yelan inGenshin Impact.
Yelan’s Burst Doesn’t Work With Charged Attacks
Similar to Xingqiu’s, Yelan’s Elemental Burst will only attack when the active character performs a Normal Attack. This means players can use Yelan with Sword or Polearmcharacters likeGenshin ImpactKamisato Ayaka, Raiden Shogun, or Hu Tao, but not with Bow wielders like Ganyu.
Yelan Can Replace Xingqiu In Teams
Yelan can perform as great as Xingqiu in his typical team composition. The 5-Star character has a weaker Hydro application, but it’s only a problem in minor cases. Most of the time, Yelan will do as well as Xingqiu, if not better.
Yelan Is A Sub-DPS
Yelan’s bestrole in aGenshin Impactteam is as the Sub-DPSand Hydro enabler. Yelan is unsuitable as the Main DPS and does not provide any defensive value. Players have to focus on maintaining her off-field ability when using this character.
Yelan Scales Off HP
Yelan is aGenshin Impactcharacterthat scales with HP. She has no split scaling, so as a Sub-DPS, she doesn’t need ATK at all. Instead, players can focus on enhancing her HP, Energy Recharge, and Critical stats.
When it comes to her equipment,Yelan is very F2P friendly. Because ATK is irrelevant to her, she works great with low base ATK weapons like Favonius Warbow or Recurve Bow.
Energy Recharge weapons like Favonius or Sacrificial Bow are also great to help Yelan regain her Elemental Burst. So, even if players don’t have a 5-StarGenshin Impactweapon, they shouldn’t worry too much as Yelan works fine without them.
