I run YYYY. Yoi, Yelan, Yunjin, C4 Yanfei. Is it optimal? No. Enables the pyro resonance and opens theoretical Prototype Amber or TTDS use, but shield only on burst is less than ideal. Totally worth it for the giggle factor I get out of it though, and with Yanfei's charged & skill smashing rocks + Yelan's mobility + Yoi's damage on tap with skill it's a breeze doing overworld exploration.
I find that Jean variant is better than Bennet Variant in Furina Yelan Team, even if you couldn't swirl Pyro consistently (it happens half the time and once is enough ) it will still be much higher dps to swirl for two hydro characters instead of just using Bennet for Yoimiya's output.
@@molybdnum I have try team before, if your Yanfei aren't using ttds it will lose to Thoma. Another Team I like to run is Yoi Yelan Fischl Diona with Crimson Witch, your burst does good damage there with Overvape.
I have yoi from her last banner and just pulled jean last night, i really want to pull raiden next patch because A i already have 2 godroll pieces for her artifact set and B i just like her design. but is yoi and raiden a good team? and is jean a good support for them? also who would you put in the 5th slot given that my only hydro characters are barbara and candace and te first decent hydro unit i get will be reserved for my ganyu ayaka freeze team (yeah u kinda need water to freeze...)
I said this on the scuffed audio video, and I'll say it again. Waiting for Yoimiya is the most painful wait in my life. I've been carefully planning my pulls so I can get the characters I want AND still get Yoimiya. So close, but so far... Mark my words, I WILL have her tomorrow.
I remember when Yoimiya first came out I, pulled for her but lost the 50/50. Tried again on her rerun but lost the 50/50 AGAIN. I had enough and decided to stop wishing till she had her next rerun and lo and behold she had THE FASTEST rerun of all time and I finally got her. Double Crowned when she finally came home and I have enjoyed using her ever since. Meta is for now but Your Faves are forever!
Just started playing a month ago. She is my first 5*. I love her. Yoimiya is so much fun to play. Shout out to all Yoimiya Main! I love you guys. Support for Yoimiya... ❤
15:30 claps! One of the first few Yoimiya guides that actually mentions Elemental Mastery is good on yoimiya. Most of guides just skip it, even saying 0 EM build is fine, when it's actually not. Specially for Vape tems. Having around 100 ~ 200 EM on yoimiya makes a Huge difference when she crits . Glad to see a guide actually talking about this! Claps 👏👏
I'm so happy I got Yoimiya on her original banner. Loved her design and personality and turns out her playstyle was just perfect for me. Started using her with Fischl, Zhongli and Xingqiu and still using her in overvape (but with Yelan instead of Xingqiu) and this team continues to be my favourite gameplay-wise to this day :D
She has consistently reached the top 10 DPS for a speedrunner I follow. She did fall off to a close 11th after Fontaine released until Furina’s banner bumped her back up.
I have Ayaka and Ei. This will be the best time for me to get her. I've wanted her since her debute. Have R5 rust and everything. After Yoimiya i shall save for Neuvillette or Furina or Kazuha.
I like her as a charachter she is really fun and some abysses she really shines in, like when they give those flying drakes. For me her biggest issue is not that she is single target, I mean you are aware of that when you choose her), but that you can not choose who she targets if the enemies are somewhat close together. Not being able to prioritize targets can be a pain. Like those two kairagi you have to sorta kill simultaneously
Got her on accident, but she's really good against certain enemies. Used her a bunch against the abyss Thundering Manifestations and specters (especially pre-nerf).
A really good overview of Yoimiya! I tend not to like quickswappy teams, and I really like characters who really do a lot of attacks through their normals. She was also great for me as I was getting used to the game in general. Her streamlined kit with good strength and flexible teams and autotargeting has made her a staple whenever I'm wandering around Teyvat or when I need to tackle most weekly bosses. It takes a little bit of practice getting used to when to dodge and dash, but overall her playstyle is very clean and she can put out impressive numbers even with okay-ish Shim pieces. I've mainly used her with hydro characters like Xingqiu and Yelan, but I'll be pulling on the upcoming banners and hoping for a Chevreuse to open up more possibilities.
She’s really fun to play with. I wasn’t looking for her the first time she came out, and I got her in like my 13th or 14th wish while I was trying to build up my pity. She ended up being one of my favorites.
Argh, I'm so glad you didn't have to rerecord everything, when I heard that loud music I got nervous thinking you'd have to rerecord everything, cause it was so good!
People refuse to believe that because most don't know how to do math. Getting EVERY shot buffed is more than having a buff and a shot that might not vape every 3 hits.
The thing i often do is i use her as a turret, put a zhongli pillar, yelan Q, raiden E, and then yoimiya E and let the missles find there targets while standing on top of the pillar 😂
Thanks for the helpful guide! She may not be the best choice but I don’t like Hu tao and XiangLing. Actually my choice of pyro characters are not good… the other is Klee… but I love her. Yoimiya is also a lovable character so I really want her. Her kansai dialect in the Japanese voice is awesome too. I’m a mobile player so her auto attacks would be so comfortable. Honestly I think there should be more bow characters using normal attacks. “If Wanderer was a cute girl” made my day! As Wanderer main, I can’t play in the overworld without him. I could actually play him anywhere but the only wall I hit with him is when the enemy is anemo-resist/immune. Since he’s a catalyst he has no physical damage. I think Yoimiya would be less in that problem since her normal attacks would be leveled maybe her physical damage would be decent? I think I saw Yoimiya’s charged attack does missile to enemy, which I think so cool. Indeed she’s a mobile user’s hero!
Thank you for pointing her Burst aoe out as I find other Content creators even Today refuse to mention that part of her kit, if properly positioned her Burst does guarantee some good aoe potential even more so if there's Vape with Yelan. Aoe isn't really a factor for her as she is able to run Fischl Beidou compared to Hutao which does not want them, Yoimiya also one of the few that allows Yelan to maximize her 12-13 assist attack , compared to Hutao, take it from someone who has both, whenever I see one sided comparison sprout by toxic youtubers, I refuse to sit back, I've couldn't have imagine reliving the dumb tenten era again.
I got her today accidentally but I'm happy and not sad. Cause i have other bows and diluc artifacts. I'm happy to have yoimiya as my 1st pyro dps unit of my 2 year old account.
Thank you for the guide. I recently starting playing again thanks to a friend. I'm looking forward for her banner and will follow your advice. C0 Yoimiya and going for support characters
She used to be my main back in the day due to how easy her game play is, and doesn't rely on burst is a huge bonus in overworld. Until I got Wanderer, the boy completely dominates her in all of her strong aspects AND he can fly😂 now he's my go to in overworld
A little Yoimiya artifact trick: Yoimiya is one char that can actually benefit from having atk goblet as opposed to the elemental damage. It's because while in a perfect situation, she'll only be out for the duration of her E, in reality you will have a lot of situation where you just can't be arsed to use your E (especially if you use Shimenawa 4p) Yes, this also applies on Marechausse build.
Same here I prefer baizhu to Jean! Yoimiya has single target covered a bit of temporary res shred you have to shape the rotation around isn’t worth it compared to burgeon’s AoE on a yoimiya already built with a decent amount of EM (particularly because my yoi doesn’t have a goblet in a furina team). Plus his skill based healing and passive make him so comfy for overworld so you aren’t popping jeans burst on two hilichurls. He also greatly helps with hydro shields. Plus yoimiya has weirdly deceptive range on her normals for activating burgeons, each arrow seems to have a fat pyro tunnel around it and her burst is actually useful in the team for proccing cores (although the ally ATK buff is wasted). I’ve never really ran my yoimiya with a dedicated shielder as I’ve always been fine with her range for avoiding most interruptions but baizhus little shields are a good compromise to using a shielder, saving your combo from the odd hit here and there. Honestly such a good combo!
I've never been so happy that Baizhu has support capabilities, I've been waiting for an unga-bunga team to use with Yoimiya as main DPS when I played (Yoi + Raiden, XQ + Baizhu) Nahida is a great option of course, but I suck at dodging so I can't really take the risk of damage XD
21:37. Ok, then try wanderer, faruzan ( anemo resonance), yelan and..... Healer I guess, idk it's flex. Go Bennet for healing plus buffing or jean for anemo particles yo faruzan Between yelan and wanderer you just never run out of stamina, you're very fast, more than yoimia's team. You also kill things fast, probably faster than yoimia
As a Yoimiya player I think this was a very fair and even generous character review. She's not the best option for the Abyss and many Yoimiya-stans know it, however I find because she just so easy to use that can translate into better damage. As you pointed out dodging really isn't that difficult if you're not using a shield. I think she's great for artifact farming even though groups of enemies is not her thing (granted I am AR60 with a C3 Yoimiya). Other characters may win my favor from time to time, but I keep going back to Yoimiya because she's "best girl".
Yoimiya is clearly made for mobile comfort like Ganyu while still being solid DPS I never cared about abyss rank cause there’s plenty pyro characters to compare before including others like Ei or Ganyu, I usually would recommend Ei havers like me to to skip her for new characters but Xianyun is so far very limited so pulling Ei cons or waiting for Furina is better.
I love playing Yoimiya. I just wish they didn't drop the ball on her burst. She is so fun to use already wihtout her burst doing anything basicly, so imagine how awesome she could have been with a proper burst.
got her weapon early like 40-45 pt, also got raiden and im so happy that i can finally use her bow cause i used rust r2 or r3 earlier in abyss because aqua was on my tighnari,luckily just got one eye of perception so it's even better
As yoimiya haver she is definitely a comfort pull for mobile player, a boss slayer and a range unit, but of course she isn't perfect but for me she is still good character for people who use mobile or people who her personality in game
I can't agree more on the overworld thing ! I love having characters that doesn't rely on there burst for overworld as the fight are short but stretch on longer period/distance. That's why I like having Yoimiya, Shinobu, Layla/ZL and Fischl : no burst is needed here, and damage is good and simple to dish out. Wanderer is a good option too, as he makes exploring really easy (but I hate this psychopathic dude !) Edit : I posted before the end of the video and I'm happy to hear that you have mostly the same opinion as me about the Wanderer ^^
i had no interest in her at all, but got yomiya went i was building pity. but man I'm I glad I did she is my fave DPS in the game! her playstyle is just so comfy. I really think she is slept on as a support.
@@neo.3I don't think it's ever meant to be a hard hitting AoE damage burst, if anything it acts like a party buff with occasional Pyro application. I like playing her duo carry team style where you quickswap one dps to another.
Yoimiya team building: the thing most people often miss: she's not only an excellent main dps. She's also excellent as a 2nd dps. Say you're running the team with Baizhu like in this vid (Baizhu - Furina - Yelan - Yoimiya) here in this case the bloom would would still be the main damage source, and you'd spent like 6-10s setting up for the bloom and for Yelan. Yoimiya fills that downtime. Her E is 6s active with 15s cooldown (3 full NA chain at normal speed. skip the animation at the end.) so you'll have that 9s. Furthermore: because her ult doesn't activate that often + with how burgeon works, she doesn't exactly ruin a bloom team setup. Another option for easy play/mobile players (I played mobile for the first 2 years) is Ganyu - Yoimiya combination. This is a straightforward team: you shoot everything with Ganyu -> once they get close, Ganyu Q & switch to Yoimiya. You can fill the other 2 with.. say: Kazuha and Kokomi. Or Jean C2 and Kokomi. Or Xingqiu + Kuki. These days you have Navia, too. Atm I'm running Yoimiya on the team they use in showcase for Navia, with changes. Navia - Yoimiya - Yunjin - Furina in place of Yelan. Furina for the buff + emergency healing. Beside: it frees up Yelan for other teams.
What are peoples don’t seem to understand is that she is incredibly easy to use as she gets the job done. With the help of yelan She does well and mobs. She’s also a waifu.
Absolutely does not regret hyper investing into my yoimiya, she's my best built character and im proud to say that i can confidently pick my yoimiya over some of my best five stars in the abbyss and still perform really well ! ( For info mine's lvl 90, triple crowned, with signature weapon, and the crit ratio is 73 / 260 :D )
as someone who finds Japanese culture interesting, i am set to collect all the inazuma character regardless, and will try to make them work. this is good timing, thanks you :D excited to get Yoimiya.
5:19 You don't need to do Kazuha burst with Yoimiya. You need to do this only on Hu Tao and Xiangling, which is indeed more of a hassle since they don't work well with solo Yelan, but Yoimiya does not need extra hydro app. This makes Yoimiya vv vape is easier to setup than other characters. Yelan EQ > Bennett Q > Kazuha hold E > Yoi E is enough You also did not shred pyro res because with hydro Kazuha burst it's harder to swirl Pyro, and you vaporized instead (see 5:21). This is why VV vape setup on XL and Hu Tao is hard, but easier on Yoimiya. You don't need kazuha burst, which makes it harder to swirl Pyro
23:37 hmm to buff Yoimiya, what about a character with a stacking nuke ability based off number of normals like this? Spawn a shrapnel bomb that flies over enemies. For 9 seconds, each time a unique normal attack hits, it drops shrapnel on the enemies below and gains a stack for its final explosion, up to 12 stacks. The bomb repositions each time an enemy is hit by a normal attack. At the end of that 9 second duration, the bomb explodes with scaling based off the number of stacks. To detonate the bomb early, trigger this skill / burst again. Early detonation generates elemental particles that must be picked up, based on remaining duration. Properties: It gives Yoimiya AOE over its whole duration, and it doesn’t trivialize the combat because the big damage is still an end nuke that you need to control to avoid overkill or missing. Since it counts unique normal hits, big AOE normals like Noelle and Ayato won’t be counted multiple times. (It would still work well for Ayato because his attacks are fast, but it won’t do quadratic scaling or anything broken.) You may get fun combos for DPS Zhongli and other multi-hit polearms as well. Co-op players would charge it up easily even with claymores, but that’s fine. The support character with that ability could also be used as a pure battery that deals nearly no damage (like electro traveler) by triggering and immediately early detonating to just get the energy. It can have special ICD to avoid Fischl A4 or Xiangling burst chaos.
PSA: leaks say the 4.4 abyss will have both ruin serpent and wenut on second half of floor 12, so those who have yoi levelled but benched might wanna bring her back for at least one more abyss btw i'm marrying her on 31st february at kamisato estate, i proposed with thundering pulse + yunjin's c6 from lantern rite, i hope my fellow goldfish simps can make it source is trust me bro PepeLaugh
as a f2p player who barely spends time on grinding primos, i still pulled for yoimiya cuz its not always about the damage numbers but tis who u have fun to play with.
I love Yoimiya and ive had her since her first banner! Shes been kinda hit or miss in the abyss but her playstyle is so much fun. If people have this expensive team of Furina, Yelan and Baizhu i highly recommend that team with the MH set on Yoimiya! It helps with her aoe problems as well
I used to be a Hu Tao main, got very fond of Yoimiya's character, pulled for her, and let me tell you I've never been able to go back to Hu Tao ever since. The ease of gameplay is just that good, if Hu Tao's gameplay isn't your cup of tea. And with more bosses being added to the abyss, AND with Chevreuse being added, I can see Yoimiya's value improving greatly. I've always been a Yoimiya truther from the very start 😤
i pulled yoimiya a while ago and she's one of my favorite units. her damage isn't the best, i can build her better, but she's also just plain fun to use. she my pew pew queen ur honor. my go-to is yoi-xq-benny-zl or yoi-xq-yj-zl, but i think i should try more combinations now. but yeah she's so fun for overworld and for murdering timmy's pigeons
I just got yoimiya in 4.3 after finally being guaranteed. And i dont care what the hilichurls say, i love her and i mained her right away after building (i prefarmed after the 4.3 leaks). I was glad that i had some good shimenawa temporarily on keqing so using her was instant.
My overworld team has become Wriothesley, Xiang, Bennett and Yoimiya. I just like punching or auto-target pewpewing, it feels really nice. It's not optimal but meh, it's fun.
@@Laziota When basically everyone says she's hot garbage but after pulling for her you find out she's actually playable, yeah, I believe her strength can be surprising
@@Laziota What I mean is people's expectations of her are extremely low, as in if her teams perform 30% worse than similarly invested alternatives it's already "surprisingly strong" because of all the 💩 they constantly hear
As someone who has been a Yoimiya wanter for forever, when I finally got her, I maxed her out at 10/10/10, ran her with her best teams (xq yelan zl, yunjin xq bennet etc), and all I gotta say is........ Sadly, after 3 months of using her, I went back to other characters. They just deal more damage, are not soooooo single target focussed, and dont require so much vertical investment into. While she's cute and wholesome and all, she's just not that good... sadly.
Overall my favourite Yoimiya team is still Beidou, Yoimiya, Xingqiu and Yun Jin. Beidou + Xingqiu together result in ~79,3% (exact value depends on Talent levels) dmg reduction, which in addition with the crystalize shields makes for a very comfy team to run. Running Yun Jin instead of Bennett does increase the quality of life further by becoming independent of any circle, which especially with 'pushy' enemies is quite noticeable. The only downside being Beidou requiring A LOT of ER but its quite manageable, even without counters. As well as this team not reaching the highest dps compared to other setups, but when is this ever an actual issue...
Been waiting for this one! Might try running her with Xingqiu/Baizhu. Hopefully that works! Otherwise I’m gonna struggle because I don’t have Furina or Yelan :/ P.S. I was in the middle of my first watch and I quit the app, power cycled my Apple TV, signed out and back in….then it finally updated to tell me it went private when i finally went back to my phone to watch it 😂. Found out the volume issue by reading the comments - so thanks for the quick responses!! (I never got to that part of the video)
Please try her with Baizhu Furina Yelan. It gives her the teamwide healing for Furina, the odd burgeon here and there (she builds some EM substats so it's not neglible) and it provides her with small shields to help with interruption resistance and does not force her into circle impact.
Yoimiya was my 2nd 5 star and 1st DPS. It is still my most used DPS, in the overworld, clearing domains or even the Abyss. It's so easy to use, ranged, no need to even look for the enemies. I got Hu Tao later but in practice she is a worst DPS, even if she is better in theory.
She was clowned on at launch because she was bugged at release , was a discount hutao and the teeny tiny little detail of her banner being put right before RAIDEN;s .The only way people aren't skipping that is if goku is on the goddamn banner
bro I remember when I started to play this game, it was 2.8 I think and she is the banner rate up that time. I tried to pull her for 40 pulls and didn't get her unfortunately. fast forward now, finally I got her in 40 pity.
Hi Jello, great video! I'm going to pull Yoimiya on my second account! Could you make a video about who has the better constellation between Furina and Nahida? I'm really struggling to pick one for my Cyno, Neuvillette, Wanderer and Tighnari
Despite having a Hu Tao with Homa, I still find myself using Yoimiya more for that reason you mentioned - the ease of use. It just cannot be understated how her ungabunga playstyle is just so appealing to players like me and it's not like Yoimiya has ever hit a brick wall when it comes to clearing the abyss. While I'm not entirely sure that every account needs a Pyro on-field DPS at all when Xiangling exists, having that ungabunga ranged Pyro option really does help out after you've gotten all of Yoimiya's supports.
I NEED a good pyro so bad but ive been waiting til I get Xianling's c4 to start seriously investing in her since burst becomes much more valuable with some more duration. I'm on the fence between raiden and Yoimiya but leaning towards Yoimiya since i need pyro. My C6 Fischel is fairly well invested for good electro, and I don't have Nahida to try to run raiden in a hyperbloom, but my Yelan and Furina would work nicely to finally make a vape comp
As a haver of both Yoimiya and Raiden I can give my opinion about them: Raiden: Her dmg at C0 is not that great. If you are not going to play her in hyperbloom or rational, I don't recommend getting her. If you are planning to go for C2 then go ahead. Yoimiya: I only got her because I needed a single target dps on my account and had R2 Thundering pulse and high Yunjin cons. She is very single target focused and often struggles hard in aoe content. I only use her when there are annoying flying enemies or if I'm fighting a boss. In other synerios, other teams are miles better.
@@purp1e200 thanks for the insight! My yunjin is only c4 and still only lvl 20/40, so yunjin would need a lot of investment to go that route. I'm mostly needing a strong DPS to deal with hydro immune bosses in the Abyss. my best characters are yelan, C1R1 Neuvillette, C1 Furina, and now, C0R1 Navia, but the Tulpa relocates so much, I always whiff on a few of her skills bc of it teleporting.
😅 It's funny thing to see: ,,my team" from post yunjin realase for yoimyia being in tutorial on yt. I see you are men of culture as well.💪💪hail Boss killer team
I love Yoimiya. She is so cute. She is a joy to have around, to look at, to listen to, to mow down enemies with in the overworld. ;) I love her personality. Genshin is for now, but friends are forever. :)
Forgot you can also use diona or Layla as defensive option . and you can use echoes if you have 20-30 ping or less it’s comparable to shim
I run YYYY. Yoi, Yelan, Yunjin, C4 Yanfei. Is it optimal? No. Enables the pyro resonance and opens theoretical Prototype Amber or TTDS use, but shield only on burst is less than ideal. Totally worth it for the giggle factor I get out of it though, and with Yanfei's charged & skill smashing rocks + Yelan's mobility + Yoi's damage on tap with skill it's a breeze doing overworld exploration.

As a dad with a full time job who’s forced to play mostly on mobile, Yoimiya’s comfortable playstyle makes her one of my favourite units to play.
bro wdym, they just said that she's their fav@@alatusedits
It still just blows my mind that Yoimiya, the fireworks explosion girl, has virtually no meaningful AoE damage.
Truly one of the gameplay design decisions of all time (sad Yoimiya main noises)

15:30 claps! One of the first few Yoimiya guides that actually mentions Elemental Mastery is good on yoimiya.
Most of guides just skip it, even saying 0 EM build is fine, when it's actually not. Specially for Vape tems.
Having around 100 ~ 200 EM on yoimiya makes a Huge difference when she crits .
Glad to see a guide actually talking about this!
Claps 👏👏
I'm so happy I got Yoimiya on her original banner. Loved her design and personality and turns out her playstyle was just perfect for me. Started using her with Fischl, Zhongli and Xingqiu and still using her in overvape (but with Yelan instead of Xingqiu) and this team continues to be my favourite gameplay-wise to this day :D
She has consistently reached the top 10 DPS for a speedrunner I follow. She did fall off to a close 11th after Fontaine released until Furina’s banner bumped her back up.
His team was VV vape, full disclosure, his supports are cracked. That said, his Yoimiya is c0, competing with c6 dps
I have Ayaka and Ei. This will be the best time for me to get her. I've wanted her since her debute. Have R5 rust and everything. After Yoimiya i shall save for Neuvillette or Furina or Kazuha.
Going for C0 Yoimiya. She's been fun in events when I've played her and she's a great character. I'd rather have fun then chase meta nonstop.
I hope you get her! I got her yesterday and I'm so happy now she's such a cool character with great Design and Personality
Now with 50% less big band!
I really love Furina's song, but I think it was a good call to lower the volume. :)
I loved her from day one. It is great to see her get some love.
Yoimiya deserves the hype, thank you for this guide!
Edit: For the teams, how can you make a machine gun yoimiya (like a very fast yoimiya)
Fastest yoimiya is yun Jin c6 mika and Jean c2 probably ?
@@JelloImpactoh ok thanks 🙏
Mika is one of the only characters that buffs attack speed and heals, so he might be worth investing in if you have him!
I think if you're good at aiming, there's a way too machine gun woth her that way but it seems really tedious.
I like her as a charachter she is really fun and some abysses she really shines in, like when they give those flying drakes.
For me her biggest issue is not that she is single target, I mean you are aware of that when you choose her), but that you can not choose who she targets if the enemies are somewhat close together. Not being able to prioritize targets can be a pain. Like those two kairagi you have to sorta kill simultaneously
Got her on accident, but she's really good against certain enemies. Used her a bunch against the abyss Thundering Manifestations and specters (especially pre-nerf).
tip for yoimiya haaver : if u have aqua simulacra r1 and rust r5, rust r5 is more higher in damage
Well, as Yoimiya said, fireworks are for now, but friends are forever!
I love using her as well, and planning to c6 her.
A really good overview of Yoimiya! I tend not to like quickswappy teams, and I really like characters who really do a lot of attacks through their normals. She was also great for me as I was getting used to the game in general.
Her streamlined kit with good strength and flexible teams and autotargeting has made her a staple whenever I'm wandering around Teyvat or when I need to tackle most weekly bosses. It takes a little bit of practice getting used to when to dodge and dash, but overall her playstyle is very clean and she can put out impressive numbers even with okay-ish Shim pieces.
I've mainly used her with hydro characters like Xingqiu and Yelan, but I'll be pulling on the upcoming banners and hoping for a Chevreuse to open up more possibilities.
Chevruse is going to be so nice for her, I do not like using kazuha with her ranged style
She’s really fun to play with. I wasn’t looking for her the first time she came out, and I got her in like my 13th or 14th wish while I was trying to build up my pity. She ended up being one of my favorites.
Argh, I'm so glad you didn't have to rerecord everything, when I heard that loud music I got nervous thinking you'd have to rerecord everything, cause it was so good!
I just got Thundering Pulse, when trying got get Engulfing Lightning. Now I'm retouching her build and enjoying playing her again.
For anyone wondering: even dodging 2-3 times on yoimiya shieldless teams is still more dmg overall than a shielded team.
What, how?
@@ataberk3539 it's because you're usually removing that shielder for a unit that deals dmg (or kazuha in vv vape), resulting in more team dps overall.
People refuse to believe that because most don't know how to do math. Getting EVERY shot buffed is more than having a buff and a shot that might not vape every 3 hits.
@@ataberk3539By actually trying tbh haha
Finally finished some decent artifacts for Yoimiya. Now you mentioned EM, I need to re-think her artifacts
Thankyou for your vidoes and insight and simple explaining I have all the stuff but still only done 36 star twice your a great content creator ❤
The thing i often do is i use her as a turret, put a zhongli pillar, yelan Q, raiden E, and then yoimiya E and let the missles find there targets while standing on top of the pillar 😂
Wow..that's a unique playstyle. Lol. Ive also been thinking of a Yoimiya, johnlee, furina de liyue (xq) and raiden team. Lol
I like the way how u cover teams first on your guide videos
Thanks for the helpful guide! She may not be the best choice but I don’t like Hu tao and XiangLing. Actually my choice of pyro characters are not good… the other is Klee… but I love her. Yoimiya is also a lovable character so I really want her. Her kansai dialect in the Japanese voice is awesome too. I’m a mobile player so her auto attacks would be so comfortable. Honestly I think there should be more bow characters using normal attacks.
“If Wanderer was a cute girl” made my day! As Wanderer main, I can’t play in the overworld without him. I could actually play him anywhere but the only wall I hit with him is when the enemy is anemo-resist/immune. Since he’s a catalyst he has no physical damage. I think Yoimiya would be less in that problem since her normal attacks would be leveled maybe her physical damage would be decent? I think I saw Yoimiya’s charged attack does missile to enemy, which I think so cool. Indeed she’s a mobile user’s hero!
Thank you for pointing her Burst aoe out as I find other Content creators even Today refuse to mention that part of her kit, if properly positioned her Burst does guarantee some good aoe potential even more so if there's Vape with Yelan. Aoe isn't really a factor for her as she is able to run Fischl Beidou compared to Hutao which does not want them, Yoimiya also one of the few that allows Yelan to maximize her 12-13 assist attack , compared to Hutao, take it from someone who has both, whenever I see one sided comparison sprout by toxic youtubers, I refuse to sit back, I've couldn't have imagine reliving the dumb tenten era again.
I got her today accidentally but I'm happy and not sad. Cause i have other bows and diluc artifacts. I'm happy to have yoimiya as my 1st pyro dps unit of my 2 year old account.
Thank you for the guide. I recently starting playing again thanks to a friend. I'm looking forward for her banner and will follow your advice. C0 Yoimiya and going for support characters
She used to be my main back in the day due to how easy her game play is, and doesn't rely on burst is a huge bonus in overworld. Until I got Wanderer, the boy completely dominates her in all of her strong aspects AND he can fly😂 now he's my go to in overworld
A little Yoimiya artifact trick: Yoimiya is one char that can actually benefit from having atk goblet as opposed to the elemental damage.
It's because while in a perfect situation, she'll only be out for the duration of her E, in reality you will have a lot of situation where you just can't be arsed to use your E (especially if you use Shimenawa 4p)
Yes, this also applies on Marechausse build.
I love Yoimiya's gameplay and design, she is coming home tomorrow
Baizhu, Yoimiya, Yelan and Furina is the premier team. Absolutely wipes everything single target or AOE.
This has been my go to yoimiya team since furina’s release. Completely eliminates her AOE issues, and does really good single target damage as well.
Same here I prefer baizhu to Jean! Yoimiya has single target covered a bit of temporary res shred you have to shape the rotation around isn’t worth it compared to burgeon’s AoE on a yoimiya already built with a decent amount of EM (particularly because my yoi doesn’t have a goblet in a furina team).
Plus his skill based healing and passive make him so comfy for overworld so you aren’t popping jeans burst on two hilichurls. He also greatly helps with hydro shields.
Plus yoimiya has weirdly deceptive range on her normals for activating burgeons, each arrow seems to have a fat pyro tunnel around it and her burst is actually useful in the team for proccing cores (although the ally ATK buff is wasted).
I’ve never really ran my yoimiya with a dedicated shielder as I’ve always been fine with her range for avoiding most interruptions but baizhus little shields are a good compromise to using a shielder, saving your combo from the odd hit here and there. Honestly such a good combo!
I've never been so happy that Baizhu has support capabilities, I've been waiting for an unga-bunga team to use with Yoimiya as main DPS when I played (Yoi + Raiden, XQ + Baizhu)
Nahida is a great option of course, but I suck at dodging so I can't really take the risk of damage XD
thats just a shittier double hydro team, change it to hutao furina yelan jean and youll get better results unless u got skill issues
Hu Tao Mains are like Axis Cult members. @@qwertysysysyysysysyzz
21:37. Ok, then try wanderer, faruzan ( anemo resonance), yelan and..... Healer I guess, idk it's flex. Go Bennet for healing plus buffing or jean for anemo particles yo faruzan
Between yelan and wanderer you just never run out of stamina, you're very fast, more than yoimia's team. You also kill things fast, probably faster than yoimia
The craftable bow Hamayumi is good on Yoimiya too if you don't use her burst or have high ER
As a Yoimiya player I think this was a very fair and even generous character review. She's not the best option for the Abyss and many Yoimiya-stans know it, however I find because she just so easy to use that can translate into better damage. As you pointed out dodging really isn't that difficult if you're not using a shield. I think she's great for artifact farming even though groups of enemies is not her thing (granted I am AR60 with a C3 Yoimiya). Other characters may win my favor from time to time, but I keep going back to Yoimiya because she's "best girl".
Yoimiya is clearly made for mobile comfort like Ganyu while still being solid DPS I never cared about abyss rank cause there’s plenty pyro characters to compare before including others like Ei or Ganyu, I usually would recommend Ei havers like me to to skip her for new characters but Xianyun is so far very limited so pulling Ei cons or waiting for Furina is better.
I love playing Yoimiya.
I just wish they didn't drop the ball on her burst. She is so fun to use already wihtout her burst doing anything basicly, so imagine how awesome she could have been with a proper burst.
I would love if she had a charged attack with a big firework blow animation or smthing like that
I love yoimiya and I pulled yelan for her in 4.0 and I’m definitely pulling for her in 4.3
11:13 the shrug from Yoimiya synced with what they said was a perfect coincidence 😂
got her weapon early like 40-45 pt, also got raiden and im so happy that i can finally use her bow cause i used rust r2 or r3 earlier in abyss because aqua was on my tighnari,luckily just got one eye of perception so it's even better
As yoimiya haver she is definitely a comfort pull for mobile player, a boss slayer and a range unit, but of course she isn't perfect but for me she is still good character for people who use mobile or people who her personality in game
I can't agree more on the overworld thing !
I love having characters that doesn't rely on there burst for overworld as the fight are short but stretch on longer period/distance.
That's why I like having Yoimiya, Shinobu, Layla/ZL and Fischl : no burst is needed here, and damage is good and simple to dish out. Wanderer is a good option too, as he makes exploring really easy (but I hate this psychopathic dude !)
Edit : I posted before the end of the video and I'm happy to hear that you have mostly the same opinion as me about the Wanderer ^^
i had no interest in her at all, but got yomiya went i was building pity. but man I'm I glad I did she is my fave DPS in the game! her playstyle is just so comfy. I really think she is slept on as a support.
i love her but she's hot garbage as a support lol, that burst is really bad for so-called off-field aoe pyro application
@@neo.3I don't think it's ever meant to be a hard hitting AoE damage burst, if anything it acts like a party buff with occasional Pyro application. I like playing her duo carry team style where you quickswap one dps to another.
idk what support utilities she even has. It's like saying Hu Tao can be a support since she gives crit rate after her skill ends@@alexmiller4755
She can not support lol not even play as a sub dps, shes a on field dps with decent single target damage, thats all
You weren't bUiLdInG pItY. You were just feeding your gambling addiction.
Yoimiya team building: the thing most people often miss: she's not only an excellent main dps. She's also excellent as a 2nd dps.
Say you're running the team with Baizhu like in this vid (Baizhu - Furina - Yelan - Yoimiya) here in this case the bloom would would still be the main damage source, and you'd spent like 6-10s setting up for the bloom and for Yelan.
Yoimiya fills that downtime. Her E is 6s active with 15s cooldown (3 full NA chain at normal speed. skip the animation at the end.) so you'll have that 9s.
Furthermore: because her ult doesn't activate that often + with how burgeon works, she doesn't exactly ruin a bloom team setup.
Another option for easy play/mobile players (I played mobile for the first 2 years) is Ganyu - Yoimiya combination.
This is a straightforward team: you shoot everything with Ganyu -> once they get close, Ganyu Q & switch to Yoimiya. You can fill the other 2 with.. say: Kazuha and Kokomi. Or Jean C2 and Kokomi. Or Xingqiu + Kuki.
These days you have Navia, too.
Atm I'm running Yoimiya on the team they use in showcase for Navia, with changes.
Navia - Yoimiya - Yunjin - Furina in place of Yelan. Furina for the buff + emergency healing. Beside: it frees up Yelan for other teams.
yelan on yoimiya should be a national team too XD...yelan feels better on her than anyone else imo
What are peoples don’t seem to understand is that she is incredibly easy to use as she gets the job done. With the help of yelan She does well and mobs. She’s also a waifu.
Yoimiya is the only character outside of Archons to have a second Character Quest chapter. Maybe she's the actual Pyro Archon.
You gotta try firecracker team, Yoimya with Xinqiu, Nahida and Kuki. Hyperbloom and Burgeon mix are explosives like fireworks
Absolutely does not regret hyper investing into my yoimiya, she's my best built character and im proud to say that i can confidently pick my yoimiya over some of my best five stars in the abbyss and still perform really well ! ( For info mine's lvl 90, triple crowned, with signature weapon, and the crit ratio is 73 / 260 :D )
the yoimiya yelan infinite vape is just extremely satisfying.
as someone who finds Japanese culture interesting, i am set to collect all the inazuma character regardless, and will try to make them work. this is good timing, thanks you :D excited to get Yoimiya.
It just so happens that I am just now getting to Yoimiya's story quest in Inazuma. Perfect timing for tomorrow's release.
I subscribed to you because you expect perfectly and because I love yoimiya ❤❤❤
5:19 You don't need to do Kazuha burst with Yoimiya. You need to do this only on Hu Tao and Xiangling, which is indeed more of a hassle since they don't work well with solo Yelan, but Yoimiya does not need extra hydro app. This makes Yoimiya vv vape is easier to setup than other characters. Yelan EQ > Bennett Q > Kazuha hold E > Yoi E is enough
You also did not shred pyro res because with hydro Kazuha burst it's harder to swirl Pyro, and you vaporized instead (see 5:21). This is why VV vape setup on XL and Hu Tao is hard, but easier on Yoimiya. You don't need kazuha burst, which makes it harder to swirl Pyro
23:37 hmm to buff Yoimiya, what about a character with a stacking nuke ability based off number of normals like this?
Spawn a shrapnel bomb that flies over enemies. For 9 seconds, each time a unique normal attack hits, it drops shrapnel on the enemies below and gains a stack for its final explosion, up to 12 stacks. The bomb repositions each time an enemy is hit by a normal attack. At the end of that 9 second duration, the bomb explodes with scaling based off the number of stacks.
To detonate the bomb early, trigger this skill / burst again. Early detonation generates elemental particles that must be picked up, based on remaining duration.
Properties:
It gives Yoimiya AOE over its whole duration, and it doesn’t trivialize the combat because the big damage is still an end nuke that you need to control to avoid overkill or missing.
Since it counts unique normal hits, big AOE normals like Noelle and Ayato won’t be counted multiple times. (It would still work well for Ayato because his attacks are fast, but it won’t do quadratic scaling or anything broken.)
You may get fun combos for DPS Zhongli and other multi-hit polearms as well.
Co-op players would charge it up easily even with claymores, but that’s fine.
The support character with that ability could also be used as a pure battery that deals nearly no damage (like electro traveler) by triggering and immediately early detonating to just get the energy.
It can have special ICD to avoid Fischl A4 or Xiangling burst chaos.
PSA: leaks say the 4.4 abyss will have both ruin serpent and wenut on second half of floor 12, so those who have yoi levelled but benched might wanna bring her back for at least one more abyss
btw i'm marrying her on 31st february at kamisato estate, i proposed with thundering pulse + yunjin's c6 from lantern rite, i hope my fellow goldfish simps can make it
source is trust me bro PepeLaugh
Hey it's back!
21:15 - Man willed Chasca into existence 10 months later...
as a f2p player who barely spends time on grinding primos, i still pulled for yoimiya cuz its not always about the damage numbers but tis who u have fun to play with.
I love Yoimiya and ive had her since her first banner! Shes been kinda hit or miss in the abyss but her playstyle is so much fun. If people have this expensive team of Furina, Yelan and Baizhu i highly recommend that team with the MH set on Yoimiya! It helps with her aoe problems as well
remember! health comes first
I used to be a Hu Tao main, got very fond of Yoimiya's character, pulled for her, and let me tell you I've never been able to go back to Hu Tao ever since. The ease of gameplay is just that good, if Hu Tao's gameplay isn't your cup of tea. And with more bosses being added to the abyss, AND with Chevreuse being added, I can see Yoimiya's value improving greatly.
I've always been a Yoimiya truther from the very start 😤
I unfortunately pulled her on my 50/50 early pity and now im so happy about it!
I've had Yoimiya since Aug '21 & didn't get Rust to R5 until 2 weeks ago, then another copy dropped... The magic of gacha
meanwhile i finally got my first r1 at the start of ar59 😂🥲
i pulled yoimiya a while ago and she's one of my favorite units. her damage isn't the best, i can build her better, but she's also just plain fun to use. she my pew pew queen ur honor. my go-to is yoi-xq-benny-zl or yoi-xq-yj-zl, but i think i should try more combinations now. but yeah she's so fun for overworld and for murdering timmy's pigeons
You can replace yunjin with candace on that double hydro zhong li team.
Yelan can give particles do candace , decreasing the e.r necessary.
I just got yoimiya in 4.3 after finally being guaranteed. And i dont care what the hilichurls say, i love her and i mained her right away after building (i prefarmed after the 4.3 leaks). I was glad that i had some good shimenawa temporarily on keqing so using her was instant.
My overworld team has become Wriothesley, Xiang, Bennett and Yoimiya. I just like punching or auto-target pewpewing, it feels really nice. It's not optimal but meh, it's fun.
Surprisingly strong character that can really shine at times in the abyss, feels pretty unique to play as well
Surprisingly what?!💀
lmao so tru@@Laziota
@@Laziota When basically everyone says she's hot garbage but after pulling for her you find out she's actually playable, yeah, I believe her strength can be surprising
@@eru_barth I'm not saying she's garbage. I'm just saying she's not that strong lol. She's not bad but not strong by any means
@@Laziota What I mean is people's expectations of her are extremely low, as in if her teams perform 30% worse than similarly invested alternatives it's already "surprisingly strong" because of all the 💩 they constantly hear
yess Yoimiya the best girl
I got her by accident, but now my team with her, Zhongli, Bennet, and Xingqui is a must try for me in most abysses.
Not many pulled for her at her first banner.
But those who did never regret it.
very quick fix! can hear much better now ^_^
I love her, she's my favorite pyro dps. Melts bosses like swiss cheese.
As someone who has been a Yoimiya wanter for forever, when I finally got her, I maxed her out at 10/10/10, ran her with her best teams (xq yelan zl, yunjin xq bennet etc), and all I gotta say is........
Sadly, after 3 months of using her, I went back to other characters. They just deal more damage, are not soooooo single target focussed, and dont require so much vertical investment into. While she's cute and wholesome and all, she's just not that good... sadly.
Best girl appears on the banner once again
Overall my favourite Yoimiya team is still Beidou, Yoimiya, Xingqiu and Yun Jin.
Beidou + Xingqiu together result in ~79,3% (exact value depends on Talent levels) dmg reduction, which in addition with the crystalize shields makes for a very comfy team to run.
Running Yun Jin instead of Bennett does increase the quality of life further by becoming independent of any circle, which especially with 'pushy' enemies is quite noticeable.
The only downside being Beidou requiring A LOT of ER but its quite manageable, even without counters. As well as this team not reaching the highest dps compared to other setups, but when is this ever an actual issue...
Been waiting for this one! Might try running her with Xingqiu/Baizhu. Hopefully that works! Otherwise I’m gonna struggle because I don’t have Furina or Yelan :/
P.S. I was in the middle of my first watch and I quit the app, power cycled my Apple TV, signed out and back in….then it finally updated to tell me it went private when i finally went back to my phone to watch it 😂. Found out the volume issue by reading the comments - so thanks for the quick responses!! (I never got to that part of the video)
Yoimiya is probably the most fun that I’ll have with an open world character in Genshin ever
My queen is finally coming home no wait I'm on 50/50 with 50 pity I hope I get her
Please try her with Baizhu Furina Yelan. It gives her the teamwide healing for Furina, the odd burgeon here and there (she builds some EM substats so it's not neglible) and it provides her with small shields to help with interruption resistance and does not force her into circle impact.
I’m so sad that it’s speculated that Nahida is running in the first 1/2 of 4.4 because I would TOTALLY wish for Yoimiya and I gotta save for her.
Yoimiya was my 2nd 5 star and 1st DPS. It is still my most used DPS, in the overworld, clearing domains or even the Abyss. It's so easy to use, ranged, no need to even look for the enemies.
I got Hu Tao later but in practice she is a worst DPS, even if she is better in theory.
or u just have massive skill issue
She was clowned on at launch because she was bugged at release , was a discount hutao and the teeny tiny little detail of her banner being put right before RAIDEN;s .The only way people aren't skipping that is if goku is on the goddamn banner
bro I remember when I started to play this game, it was 2.8 I think and she is the banner rate up that time. I tried to pull her for 40 pulls and didn't get her unfortunately. fast forward now, finally I got her in 40 pity.
Hi Jello, great video! I'm going to pull Yoimiya on my second account! Could you make a video about who has the better constellation between Furina and Nahida? I'm really struggling to pick one for my Cyno, Neuvillette, Wanderer and Tighnari
No vv set ups with Chevreuse, gonna feel nice for those yoimiya mains
Hey how's it going today? i have a question on weapons? What do you think is better. The First Great Magic R1 or Rust R5?
Despite having a Hu Tao with Homa, I still find myself using Yoimiya more for that reason you mentioned - the ease of use. It just cannot be understated how her ungabunga playstyle is just so appealing to players like me and it's not like Yoimiya has ever hit a brick wall when it comes to clearing the abyss. While I'm not entirely sure that every account needs a Pyro on-field DPS at all when Xiangling exists, having that ungabunga ranged Pyro option really does help out after you've gotten all of Yoimiya's supports.
Yeah. Auto attacks and no charge shots required after using skill. The reason Ganyu haters use or love Yoimiya.
I NEED a good pyro so bad but ive been waiting til I get Xianling's c4 to start seriously investing in her since burst becomes much more valuable with some more duration. I'm on the fence between raiden and Yoimiya but leaning towards Yoimiya since i need pyro. My C6 Fischel is fairly well invested for good electro, and I don't have Nahida to try to run raiden in a hyperbloom, but my Yelan and Furina would work nicely to finally make a vape comp
As a haver of both Yoimiya and Raiden I can give my opinion about them:
Raiden: Her dmg at C0 is not that great. If you are not going to play her in hyperbloom or rational, I don't recommend getting her. If you are planning to go for C2 then go ahead.
Yoimiya: I only got her because I needed a single target dps on my account and had R2 Thundering pulse and high Yunjin cons. She is very single target focused and often struggles hard in aoe content. I only use her when there are annoying flying enemies or if I'm fighting a boss. In other synerios, other teams are miles better.
@@purp1e200 thanks for the insight! My yunjin is only c4 and still only lvl 20/40, so yunjin would need a lot of investment to go that route. I'm mostly needing a strong DPS to deal with hydro immune bosses in the Abyss. my best characters are yelan, C1R1 Neuvillette, C1 Furina, and now, C0R1 Navia, but the Tulpa relocates so much, I always whiff on a few of her skills bc of it teleporting.
xiangling is still insane at c3... peeple straight up lying to you about it.
😅 It's funny thing to see: ,,my team" from post yunjin realase for yoimyia being in tutorial on yt. I see you are men of culture as well.💪💪hail Boss killer team
I love Yoimiya. She is so cute.
She is a joy to have around, to look at, to listen to, to mow down enemies with in the overworld. ;)
I love her personality.
Genshin is for now, but friends are forever. :)
