Best Yelan Genshin Impact build: Artifacts, weapons, more HoYoverseYelan is an extremely powerful 5-star Hydro character in Genshin Impact. If you’re looking to build her, check out our recommended Artifacts, weapons, and more. Yelan is a mysterious individual who allegedly works for the Ministry of Civil Affairs. However, she also claims she works for Liyue’s Yanshang Teahouse. Yelan has consistently scored high on Genshin Impact’s tier list for sub-DPS units. This character’s Elemental Burst can improve the DMG of active units, but the ability does have a high energy cost. She can also become a main DPS depending on Constellations. Keep reading to learn everything you need to know about effectively building Yelan in Genshin Impact. Best Yelan build in Genshin Impact Best Yelan Artifacts We recommend placing the 4-piece Emblem of Severed Fate set on Yelan if you wish to use her as a sub-DPS. These Artifacts will increase her Energy Recharge by 20% and then improve her Elemental Burst DMG by 25% of her Energy Recharge. If you want to run Yelan as a Main DPS, we suggest using the 2-piece Tenacity of the Millelith alongside the 2-piece Heart of Depth. This combination will not only boost Yelan’s HP by 20%, but will also improve her Hydro DMG Bonus by 15%. Best Yelan weapons The best weapon choice for Yelan is the 5-star Aqua Simulacra due to the Bow increasing her HP by 16%. Yelan will need this effect, considering almost all of her attacks scale with her HP percentage. Aqua Simulacra will also improve Yelan’s DMG by 20% if there are opponents nearby, even if Yelan isn’t on the field. Another option is running the 5-star Polar Star to increase Yelan’s Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst DMG by 12%. This weapon will also trigger the Ashen Nightstar effect to convert stacks into ATK boosts. If you don’t have either 5-star option, we suggest going with The Stringless to improve your Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst DMG by 24%. Yelan Talent Level-up and Ascension Materials Talent level-up materials Yelan’s talents in Genshin Impact need Teachings of Prosperity and its upgrades, Recruit’s Insignia and its upgrades, and Gilden Scale. The exact number of materials you need for Yelan’s talents are as follows: Where to farm Yelan’s talent level-up materials Teachings of Prosperity and its upgrades Teachings of Prosperity and its upgrades can be farmed from Taishan Mansion in Liyue. The said materials are available on Monday, Tuesday, and Sunday. Taishan Mansion is located near Jueyun Karst.

Gilded Scale Gilded Scale is dropped by the Azdaha weekly boss in Genshin Impact. This boss is unlocked as part of Zhongli’s questline in the game. Ascension materials Yelan in Genshin Impact needs Varunada Lazurite Silver, Runic Fang, Recruit’s Insignia, and Starconch. The exact number of materials she needs has been listed below: Where to farm Yelan Ascension materials Varunada Lazurite Silver and its upgrades Varunada Lazurite Silver and its upgrades can be farmed from the Hydro Hypostasis in Genshin Impact.

Starconch Starconch is a local specialty of Liyue that can be found spread all over the region. The areas where it can be found in abundance are Guyun Stone Forest and Yaoguang Shoal. Best Yelan team comp We suggest running Yelan on a team focused on the Hyperbloom Elemental Reaction. Therefore, we suggest using Yelan alongside Kokomi, Nahida, and Ayato. This team composition would take advantage of off-field element application while Kokomi continues to provide heals for the party. Alternatively, you could place Yelan on a Vaporize team with party members like Hu Tao, Xingqiu, and Zhongli. You won’t need a healer on this team, considering Zhongli’s shield and the way Hu Tao’s kit works. Finally, Yelan also works quite well with Yoimiya, YunJin, and Bennett. Yoimiya is the only character who can make the most out of Yelan’s 50% bonus damage.
