The year is 2040, Star Rail has separated characters into 2 categories, the ones that have beat Yanqing (SSS tier) and the ones that haven't done it yet (F tier). Gacha tubers stopped making guides on new characters and speculate on whether Yanqing will show up and get beat by them instead. Star Rail leaks are made up only of leaked Yanqing assets. Mihoyo writers are in shambles trying to insert Yanqing into more content. Da Wei opens his heart shaped locket containing a picture of Yanqing and solemnly utters "I have one final job for you.". He then initiates Operation YanKing the Playerbase. It's the final arc versus Nanook and the whole of the antimatter legion with the friends you've made along the way. Yanqing arrives just in time to fulfill his destiny. Everyone dogpiles on him, even the parallel version 5* Yanqing from Honkai Impact making him the only character to kick his own ass. Star Rail players rejoice as now every character is top tier. Everyone is happy, except for Jing Yuan mains. In the end, only Jing Yuan decides to not beat his own pupil as he was CC'd by his love for him, causing him to be relegated to Mid Yuan tier forever. Thanks for the support on recent videos❤
This ^ That's what I've been preaching and wanting. Give him the 4 sword summon as an Ultimate and the Sword Surfboard as his skill similar to a Numby Follow Up. Why his Ult is what it is now and attached to the current talent is as mind boggling as why Yang turns up as the 50/50 miss char more times than I can count! He is wasted potential and it wouldn't be hard to revamp him. Its just a matter of whether they want to or not as every banner Power Creeps the last, not to mention Jingliu is currently available again if you get your Aventurine, rubbing it in for poor dudes face : (
I’ve tested out Aventurine with Yanging and he is SO much more powerful. Aventurine has fixed him up a ton. His rapid shield generation gives him great Yanqing synergy with his beefy shields as well making him at least high to mid B tier
The fact that they literally DID just anounce that 2.3 will have a single-target gamemode a couple days after this is... intersting. would be great if you could do a reanalysis after it comes out, as it might actually make him a lot more Viable.
Yanqing already has a ton of CR built into his kit, so I originally thought they could make another character, Relic set, or Planar set, that buffs CD based on CR that exceeds 100% - this way you could easily overcap on his CR and gain those benefits. That said, Jingliu also has a ton of CR built into her kit, so anything you do to buff Yanqing at this point will also inadvertently make Jingliu stronger, and that's the main issue. Yanqing is one of the weakest DPS units, and Jingliu is one of the strongest, yet their kits are very similar in many ways. I suppose you could do my original idea, but on a LC instead of character, Planar, or Relic set. That way it'd be tied to Hunt characters, and Jingliu wouldn't be able to benefit from it.
I think its very likely that we get a dedicated ice/freeze buffer. I think the game is trying to make things more archetype focused. So i can imagine them adding buffers for this freeze playstyle. Theyve buffed elation (followup) and nihility (dot and debuffs) alot, sparkle is kind of a propagation buff if you squint alittle. So i think a remembrance support is likely.
The problem with a dedicated ice/freeze buffer is that we kinda have that in both Pela and RM. pela provides def shred and ice res pen, while RM provide dmg bonus, res pen, and the potential for some of the hardest chain stuns in the game due to her Ult allowing for 1 if not 2 more chances for Yanqing to proc follow up atk freeze, not to mention the possible but not recommended freeze chance from Gepard if you need sustain. I feel like right now, the only way I can see to really buff Yanqing as a unit using g your suggestion is through an ice character that can apply a buff that when a character applies a freeze, it’s instead SU’s disassociation. But at that point, the devs would also be buffing JL as well, and I don’t think they want to do that for the foreseeable future because of how good she already is.
@@normalpersonlivingtheirlife i dont think in any universe I would call RM an ice buffer when she is just the most generalist buffer in the game. Pela is a good point but shes more of a sub dps than an actual buffer or support. Im talking a support that gives a huge buff but only for ice damage, freeze res down, eff hit rate, massive defense ice shred, the whole shebang. Maybe even a weaker version of the dissociation effect in simulated universe. sure we would be buffing jingliu who is one of the best characters in the game best honestly? Who cares now that acheron is in the game, and were gunna get more f2p friendly lcs for her and more nihility characters that buff her. And dhil has a higher cieling then JL and has been getting more buffs
@@lordradiance2530 I would like to correct a misunderstanding I have laid out. I did not mean for RM to be counted as an ice buffer over a general buffer, but more meant that she was a freeze/hard cc buffer through her ult. I apologize if this caused any confusion, and would like to also state that I agree with your idea of a ice specialized buffer, though we might not get one for a while due to the strength of Pela and JL when combined. I HOPE that we do get one, at least before 2.6 however I don’t think it will be the case due to other elements needing support as well like fire, which will hopefully be corrected through SAM, and wind as well, since blade is the best wind DPS unless I’m mistaken. Please correct me if I’m wrong though.
@@normalpersonlivingtheirlife i just think it makes sense for there to be an ice buffer, because of ice’s unique mechanic as well as being a path in simulated universe. I 100% agree wind and fire need buffers but I dont see it happening soon because of the fact that the only mechanics those two types have is the DOTs they have, and we already have plenty of dot support. Fire wind and physical kind of need the help but the best I can imagine them getting is like, a yukong that gives a buff for their type for the team locked behind a trace.
I think the best fix to Yanqing is to play into more of a subdps/support role, give him the freeze consistency power of Misha. Considering that Yanqing is a mix of crit, spd, and freeze, one relic set that could buff him that wouldn't buff as many other hunt characters is one that gives energy or crit rate/damage when freezing? Or one that allows him to have an increased chance to freeze on ult/skill while also giving the disassociation buff on freeze. This would be a GREAT relic set if an alter for March 7th comes out thats Remembrance-themed but destruction/hunt in gameplay, so I wouldn't say it's that farfetched or overpowered. Where Selee excels in resurgence/extra actions, Ratio in FUA, yanqing could be a mix of support/freeze AND subdps. He's never going to have the DPS of future or even current Hunt characters, but he could have support applications with the right relics.
just make the follow up attack chance of talent either guaranteed or scale a bit with speed or crit. or make it scale with effect hit rate. that way with 65% base chance to freeze he would be a good freezer
The current new event thingy has a stage where this 'dmg overflow' mechanic exists. Essentially, any excess damage on an already low hp target can cause a strong blast of dmg onto others. Through this, Hunt characters that may be overkill with their attacks can benefit from this heavily because any unnecessary damage can just be redirected onto other targets.
About his multipliers: Yanqing's A2 gives him a 30% multiplier on each attack, so 60% on skill + follow up, and also his unfreeze damage can be critical, so that's another 50% multiplier (maybe plus another 30%, but most likely not). That is, this is already a 380% multiplier, which is 40% less than that of Dr. Ratio (and his attack stat is significantly higher even than Seele's) If you add his e1 to this, you can get very high numbers. But the randomness of his bonus attacks and the negative impact of taking damage kills the character
I have come from 9 days in the future to bring news of an apparently new endgame content that seems to be implied to be a boss rush for the hunt characters! Yanqing gonna return to his throne soon once more!
he needed aventurine almost a year ago.. ALSO! a hunt focuse moc/pure fiction. a gamemode focused on a very strong weeekly boss(or just geenerally beefed up regular bosses for earlier stages like swarm and argenti.) which would be amazing for hunt
tbh if they would buff yanqing directly that would fix all his problems and they only have to do that by fixing his talent so he gets those buffs as long as his hp stays above 50% so those who don't have gepard or won't have aventurine can still use him with a healer bc as we see in the video if you're paying attention to the combat yanqing his pretty broken if he takes no damage which is why aventurine is such a huge buff for him already but tbh i feel like needing a specific type of character is more of a crutch esp bc the only 4* option doesn't work for yanqing as march needs just as many skill points as he does ofc you could probably get away with it if march is e6 bc then you could use her as a healer for other allies and herself after getting hit but you'd have to make sure there's always a skill point for her to use on yanqing so he takes no damage and that he still has skill points too i know they won't ever buff a specific character directly like they did to zhongli unless the character causes as much outrage as zhongli but if they did yanqing is the top of the list of characters who badly need a buff to their actual kit bc team building is too restrictive and my yanqing collects dust since i don't have gepard and already chose to pull jingliu instead of aventurine (at least jingliu gives me a reason to build my bronya and lynx also gonna use asta until i get blade so i have a reason to build asta now too)
A simple fix that isn’t too strong is to have his follow up attack trigger 100% on every frozen enemy the allies attack, early players would benefit from building march 7th as a freeze bot and their new 5050 lost that way. Also change the chance to do follow up attacks on his turn from 60% to 100% if he isn’t attacked for 2 turns so he can benefit from bronya advance forward more
I actually want to play Yanqing. Not out of delusions that he's secretly the best DPS, but just because he's there. To explore an avenue of the game I've yet to take on.
When we go back to the Xianzhou storyline we'll get the true YanKing the first 6* character ( source : trust me bro) jokes aside they could do what they did with Danheng and make another version of him it's highly unlikely but i hope it happens
Another reason Himeko may have pure fiction is because she could eventually get a 5 star limited version and if shes already good in PF ity would build up hype.
adventurine or any new preservation character they release in the future with consistent shields makes him playable because his passive is important for his damage.
A support that could be good for Yanking is like an opposite version of the Fire MC Taunt with Blast and AoE immunity (basically makes them concealed or repel damage to other allies) Its basically just a Fu Xuan of sorts that takes the damage for Yanking fully instead, only applies to 1 target, in this case our yanking Some goofy ahh buffs may include = if 100% HP, get more damage (cuz you don't get hit lmao), or the less you are hit, the more damage you do (over time, and stacks, so avoid getting hit or lose HP) Honestly I have no idea if this would count as Harmony or Preservation, lol
I mean. A yq set would also just buff jl even more tho no? Unless its something like everyone needs to have full health for the bonus but that's just too annoying to be worth it.
That support you came up with at the end could be ever so slightly better. Instead of marking an enemy that when hit triggers damage to other enemies, have them give a shield to an ally and when that ally deals damage to a single target while shielded, the support deals the damage to the other enemies. This solves both of Yan's problems at the same time. Ooh, also make it function as a follow up attack and make them another Masked Fool like Sparkle since follow up attacks are AHA's thing in the Simulated Universe. But Preservation as their fake-Elation instead of Sparkle's Harmony
I only have Yanqing, March and Herta with ice powers. So it doesn't matter if he's bad or not, I will be forced to build him if I want to break ice shields.
There was a fake leak about Sunday being a nihility unit who could mark enemies just like you described here 6:59 I would go even further and say I think if such a mark/debuff would have come, it can go the extra mile and it should spread debuffs and CCs as well. You then have Yanqing freeze enemies constantly and as a result we all get a new subdps/sustain hybrid like welt (arguably even better since freeze is op)
Actually in the new arcade event they added a mechanic in which excess single target damage does AoE after getting multiplied. This made characters like selee, Ratio, etc., a lot better, solving, imo, the main issue of the hunt path, affecting yanqing of course. This could be used in pure fiction.
Omg, imagine this. Yanqing is the traitor of The Family, and it was all a complicated disguise and he is going to get buffed by them. Therefore if Robin is a harmony that buffs Yanqing (Yanqing has FuA), Sunday is going to counter her and be nihility and his element is going to be ice because I willed it into existence. We will have mono ice comp, and Sunday CAN ONLY BUFF YANQING. Yep, I’m on to something here. Sunday is ice nihility that buffs Yanqing only. Run with Pela and Gerard. Oh yeah. And when Sam drops he will actually do the melt reaction with Yanqing and since Yanqing will get a buff in the newest version where he unlocks his boss form and summons his sword which will apply cryo. Yanqing can also be run with Xiangling of course. It all makes sense now. Yeppers. Overall these changes would be a Yan-WIN-g. Maybe I shouldn’t type comments at 3 AM…. I might be a bit delirious
Freeze support maybe? He has some interactions with freeze, and such support would have synergy with March, Gepard and Misha, paired with Ruan Mei one could make solo sustain March or no sustain at all work, some bs like Ruan Mei-Welt. And on top of all that, the freeze mechanic is very easy to shut down: they can simply put a some Cocolias and icebois on MoC or even better, the old "haha, this ice weak enemy has 300% CC resistance", and just sell the new nihility dps mommy afterwards. It's a win-win-lose-win, we win, then they win, then we lose and they win, perfecly balanced and profitable, as all things should be.
Losing your buff the moment your HP goes down by 1 is a dealbreaker. He doesn't even have good uptime cos the buff lasts so short. He could literally have higher multipliers than Ratio and I'd still play Ratio.
Your damage spreading support sounds like an inverted Erudition Resonance, which is interesting. I wonder if more Follow-Up supports would be able to help Yanqing or not…?
i love this kid so much and have been playing with him for a while. I go into most fights with him and he was one of my first 5 stars. i've been playing since release and i think hoyo should treat him better. He is used in the story to make other characters look good (though this is addressed in an event) and he isn't that bad. I use a decent team with limited and standard characters and he does great. #stop yanqing abuse
one idea i had to make him usable while make it harder to use jingliu would be an enemy that summons adds/something targetable, but you can't hit them or else you get a penalty, may it be energy drain, a shit ton of damage, a stun or something
I believe his saving grace would be to make what makes him niche better, with both ascension and perhaps maybe eidolon. How? well, for his main niche it would his FUA, so it would be better if he had an increased FUA chance because it's damn low and no way to increase it ideally, and it sucks how he lost his buff when he gets attacked when nowadays bosses have an attack that attacks the whole team anyway
He either needs to be like Boss Yanqing or make him older. My Yanqing is impressive enough but doesn’t beat Jingliu… but if he uses the adult male model I would have use him a lot more just cause I would like looking at that a lot more than a child.
They could do it like how himeko got "buffed" by the addition of pure fiction. they should make a hunt gamemode that works like pure fiction but its only bosses and they're tougher. it's not necessarily a buff per se but it would boost up his usage rates for sure. Seele wouldn't be great in there but whatever
This is an idea of mine for making hunt characters kinda op, just made a mode were is inverse of pure fiction, that penalices you for doing AOE damage, imagine a battle were there are 3 enemies, the big one and two eggs, if you touch the eggs they will deal insane ammounts of damage for your team, or heal the main boss to full or something like that. + I think even if he is from the standard pull he is the weakest of all of them, the worst part of him is not that he is needed to not be touched to do his job, is his slow start, his tecnique should give him his pasive activated from turn 1 (and for some reason they created a artifact that only works for him that is useles in everyone else to compensate this and is the Celestial Differentiator , i just dont get why they created somethin like this) + that follow atack being random just kills the character + needing the enemy to be frozen to deal more damage right now is just not posible. AND hear me out , this is an awesome idea that can fix this character, just make the Celestial Differentiator, work like it is right now but add that every time you get hit(not damaged) this efect activates again, and GG, no DPS can use this artifact because its just too RNG and now you can build DPS tanks, and his main weakness is gone, so all valanced and they didnt need to buff a character.
I started a new account and got yanqing and bronya e1 with her lightcone. Honestly for early game? He’s very good obviously jingliu outdoes him since I’ve gotten her now but he has a capability to be so much better honestly.
IF they buffed Yanqing into his Enhanced form instead, having multiple blades on his side litting him target which to strick, and his ult being a literal AOE instead of Single target, maybe he'll be fine
It seems his best team/comp today moving forward is dual dps with him as the main or sub (preferably main since he's hunt). But his best team( if you're Yanqing is E1, hoping I lose a 50/50 😂) if you want to main him is definitely: Ruan Mei/Sparkle, Misha, Yanqing, and Aventurine. Aventurine buffs Yanqing's already great self attained Crit Dmg, Runa Mei with Penacony set increases his dmg, and Misha who's the best freezer in the game with an E1 Yanqing can output his dmg further. Plus Yanqing is one of the few DPS who can hit 160 speed relatively ok. And has a good LC options with Ratio, Seele, and even Topaz. Sleep like the Dead is not his BiS. Currently Yanqing actually isn't in that terrible of position as he has teams who are relatively standard cost( 2 5 stars who have immense pull value and are pretty universal, and a 4 star). Just hoping I lose a 50/50 or snipe him off of Stellar Warp 😂
Yanqing has been finally made viable with Aventurine, so there is some hope. Also they are planning on a new game mode that is against one big hp boss, so hey.
Idk where you got this idea that they profit more for more losses on 50/50s. Here are some facts to maybe help bridge this concept in marketing: People dislike losing a lot more than they like winning. A whale (someone without an upper limit to their game budget) doesn’t particularly care who they lost to, they want the E2/E6. The 50/50 system is there to make it seem like there’s less swiping you’d need to do to get the character you wanted. Or more! They know what the average is, you don’t. The whale either keeps spending until they get the character, or they get lucky and get them early. Either way, they come back. A free to play player is on their own a net loss to the company. But, their participation in the community alone is the only thing driving the social push for spending. When a free to play player loses a 50/50, the game doesn’t want you to feel like you gained nothing. That’s why you have good QoL coming out about all the standard characters consistently. - Now, why do they still have Yanqing? This is speculation territory, but Yanqing is very much a Qiqi-like situation. It’s very possible that the cultural phenomenon of losing to Qiqi is somehow provably profitable. They would know, anyway. Having one terrible 5* then probably helps boost overall sales just because people like the idea that they can lose to this character, it makes a social media post, etc.
How yanqing cannot be saved Jingliu whatever mode there is unless jingliu is nerfed or disabled(which will never happen) then yanqing will never be the best ice dps in any team or gamemode
Not to mention Yanqshit's eidolons are all useless except E6, so losing 50/50 to him gets more painful each time. While Welt (a different standard dps) at E1, after his ultimate, does 80% additional of his skill's multiplier while Yanqshit deals 60% of his atk (lvl 2 basic dmg lmfao) on a frozen enemy that is probably close to dying anyway because you have to either use gepard or march 7th to freeze outside a weakness break :) I don't have E1 Welt but 80% of skill's dmg multiplier sounds more useful than a 60% of atk (Wow, his skill jumps from 220% to 280%!!! Still less than Welt's multipliers, counting welt's talent too.) Yanqshit's talent should activate BEFORE he attacks an enemy so his follow up actually makes a fucking difference. Hell, i won't complain if hoyo makes that single change into an entire eidolon. His E2 should have been a chance increase at triggering his follow-up attack from 50 -> 80-90% (who the fuck thought a 50% chance follow up attack that will only trigger on your NEXT turn because his talent only works after his skill was a good idea?) All in all, i wish i had E5 Bailu instead. I wish there was a way to refund because i trade E5 Yanqshit for a singular 4* eidolon in a heartbeat. yeah, i'm mad for losing every 50/50 since release and losing it to yanqing :)
Hoyo can easily fix yanqing by removing the "loses his buff when attacked" gimmick, because that and his lack luster damage are the only 2 things that are genuinely making him the worst character in the entire funking game
No…BUT LIKE….WHY DOES HE HIT HARDER THEM MY DPS……EXCEPT JING AND ACHERON….. FOR MY ACCOUNT HE HITS HARDER THEN MY DR RATIO, TOPAZ, KAFKA….WELT, AND MY JINGYUAN…. I DONT KNOW WHATS HAPPENING AND I DONT THINK IM PLAYING RIGHT IF HES THE WEAKEST 5 STAR…AND HE IS ONE OF MY STRONGEST☠️☠️☠️
As others also pointed out, id say Aventurin will really help this lil dude tremendously. Hell definitely be playable if not even pretty good. Well, well have to see, but ive got high hopes😁
they already pulled him up a tier in prydwen due to aventurine but in my opinion if u have aventurine he nullifies yanqing low versatility and puts him on at least b tier, a tier in my opinion for moc
@@bandi642 If you build Aventurin like a DPS, you are completely right👍 But if you just want him as a defender, then hell be very good for our little dude😋
@@bandi642 and prydwen has moved him back down LOL. seriously even though aventurine fixed the shield issue theres still no reason to ever use yanqing over any other hunt unit (and jingliu who has almost the same kit design but improved)
You cant salvage multipliers since hoyo is iffy like that, one way i could see yanqing getting a massive buff which is making a harmony / nihility unit that buffs ehr / reduce effect res. his follow up is theoretically pretty strong since if the freeze lands his skil ult multipliers goes up to 320% 450% respectively.
If they do end up tweaking him (copium) they should just do a minimal multiplier change and rework one of his traces so it buffs his FUA, something like “every 2 turn when hitting enemies with attack his FUA is guranteed to launch”
The game mode for single targets doesn't have to be a boss fight, maybe a game mode where there are enemies on the stage that you have to kill but also enemies that if you *hit* would be detrimental to your score in some way
that wont be profitable to hoyo as then it would be only hunt centric and make all the other paths bad, as even tho in PF hunt is not that good it is still usable in later stages
Some remedies that could also help: • New Preservation character thats single target shields, maybe even with *instances* of damage or reducing the shielded target’s aggro • New relic that increases Crit dmg based and reduces self aggro based on speed scale, giving peak Hunt, but YQ is the only Hunt who boosts speed in buffed state • Last one’s a little goofy, but a way to focus selection and boosted odds on beginning game 5 star characters. If they’re gonna get power crept, might as well make them easier to E6
I think I already have the last one cursing my account. First five star was Yanqing (got him on star rail's opening day on the beginner banner), I bought welkin and battlepass twice (that's it) and I have e4 yanqing+his lightcone. Worst part is he was the character I wanted to have most and I was so excited to get him at first, but when I got e2 I realized he was here to plague my account. the curse of Yanqing will not leave me😭😭
@@endlessagonyyyy I’d be surprised if her 5* version was preservation, but yeah I absolutely want a reverse march preservation. Maybe a “burst” like shield could be cool too, giving full and cleanse to your selected target and a little to those adjacent. Makes positioning strategic and acts as something that isn’t full protect
To answer the title, he doesn't need saving, you can just run him on an S5 Dr.Ratio lightcone making sure you're hitting 160 speed, like 85% CR and 250% CD with an E6S5 Sparkle, Ruan Mei, and Bronya or Robin, simple and very relatable
I cleared Moc full stars in moc with him from release, only in the last one and the other that just dropped I didn't use him cause I wanted to try my new units, but you can use him, the other 5 stars have more forgiving kits and are stronger but he is strong enough to clear the content (maybe don't use him in PF and u will b good 😮💨 still I like his design and attacks so I will be using him again tomorrow once I pull for aventurine 🎉
@@raquelg9575 oh yea i know he's usable but if you didnt have him built beforehand or if you're trying to 0 cycle something to show off or something then he's gonna need more investment than I think people would wanna give him
with PF it meant to address Erudition as a whole not just Himeko. Erudition while not unplayable and definitely viable in MOC, their niche of hitting the entire screen AREN'T NEEDED(THE BEST Erudition unit like Jing Yuan and Argenti. they are AOE character that has something in their kit to scale their damage for ST scenario) if you have a better option(like limited 5 stars destruction unit) and Blast type is already enough to cover MOC content. there is like a small amount of boss or match up that really calls for their AOE at that time it was "why Erudition exist at all".
been here since hsr day 1, got bailu as my free 5*, lost my seele 50/50 to yanqing my favorite character is now yanqing, i built him so well he carries my account, it was a happy accident and i don't regret a thing :)
Make it so that his Talent occurs after every hit when he is in his buffed state. Also when the enemy is killed and the Talent has yet to trigger, it hits another enemy or perhaps gives a crit damage buff.

not quite right sadly, the bosses have summons that are integral to the fight, so its still kinda blast dmg focused
MoC already exist
I’ve tested out Aventurine with Yanging and he is SO much more powerful. Aventurine has fixed him up a ton. His rapid shield generation gives him great Yanqing synergy with his beefy shields as well making him at least high to mid B tier

The fact that they literally DID just anounce that 2.3 will have a single-target gamemode a couple days after this is... intersting. would be great if you could do a reanalysis after it comes out, as it might actually make him a lot more Viable.
Yanqing already has a ton of CR built into his kit, so I originally thought they could make another character, Relic set, or Planar set, that buffs CD based on CR that exceeds 100% - this way you could easily overcap on his CR and gain those benefits.
That said, Jingliu also has a ton of CR built into her kit, so anything you do to buff Yanqing at this point will also inadvertently make Jingliu stronger, and that's the main issue. Yanqing is one of the weakest DPS units, and Jingliu is one of the strongest, yet their kits are very similar in many ways.
I suppose you could do my original idea, but on a LC instead of character, Planar, or Relic set. That way it'd be tied to Hunt characters, and Jingliu wouldn't be able to benefit from it.
I think its very likely that we get a dedicated ice/freeze buffer. I think the game is trying to make things more archetype focused. So i can imagine them adding buffers for this freeze playstyle. Theyve buffed elation (followup) and nihility (dot and debuffs) alot, sparkle is kind of a propagation buff if you squint alittle. So i think a remembrance support is likely.
The problem with a dedicated ice/freeze buffer is that we kinda have that in both Pela and RM. pela provides def shred and ice res pen, while RM provide dmg bonus, res pen, and the potential for some of the hardest chain stuns in the game due to her Ult allowing for 1 if not 2 more chances for Yanqing to proc follow up atk freeze, not to mention the possible but not recommended freeze chance from Gepard if you need sustain. I feel like right now, the only way I can see to really buff Yanqing as a unit using g your suggestion is through an ice character that can apply a buff that when a character applies a freeze, it’s instead SU’s disassociation. But at that point, the devs would also be buffing JL as well, and I don’t think they want to do that for the foreseeable future because of how good she already is.
@@normalpersonlivingtheirlife i dont think in any universe I would call RM an ice buffer when she is just the most generalist buffer in the game. Pela is a good point but shes more of a sub dps than an actual buffer or support. Im talking a support that gives a huge buff but only for ice damage, freeze res down, eff hit rate, massive defense ice shred, the whole shebang. Maybe even a weaker version of the dissociation effect in simulated universe. sure we would be buffing jingliu who is one of the best characters in the game best honestly? Who cares now that acheron is in the game, and were gunna get more f2p friendly lcs for her and more nihility characters that buff her. And dhil has a higher cieling then JL and has been getting more buffs
@@lordradiance2530 I would like to correct a misunderstanding I have laid out. I did not mean for RM to be counted as an ice buffer over a general buffer, but more meant that she was a freeze/hard cc buffer through her ult. I apologize if this caused any confusion, and would like to also state that I agree with your idea of a ice specialized buffer, though we might not get one for a while due to the strength of Pela and JL when combined. I HOPE that we do get one, at least before 2.6 however I don’t think it will be the case due to other elements needing support as well like fire, which will hopefully be corrected through SAM, and wind as well, since blade is the best wind DPS unless I’m mistaken. Please correct me if I’m wrong though.
@@normalpersonlivingtheirlife i just think it makes sense for there to be an ice buffer, because of ice’s unique mechanic as well as being a path in simulated universe. I 100% agree wind and fire need buffers but I dont see it happening soon because of the fact that the only mechanics those two types have is the DOTs they have, and we already have plenty of dot support. Fire wind and physical kind of need the help but the best I can imagine them getting is like, a yukong that gives a buff for their type for the team locked behind a trace.
I think the best fix to Yanqing is to play into more of a subdps/support role, give him the freeze consistency power of Misha. Considering that Yanqing is a mix of crit, spd, and freeze, one relic set that could buff him that wouldn't buff as many other hunt characters is one that gives energy or crit rate/damage when freezing? Or one that allows him to have an increased chance to freeze on ult/skill while also giving the disassociation buff on freeze. This would be a GREAT relic set if an alter for March 7th comes out thats Remembrance-themed but destruction/hunt in gameplay, so I wouldn't say it's that farfetched or overpowered. Where Selee excels in resurgence/extra actions, Ratio in FUA, yanqing could be a mix of support/freeze AND subdps. He's never going to have the DPS of future or even current Hunt characters, but he could have support applications with the right relics.
just make the follow up attack chance of talent either guaranteed or scale a bit with speed or crit. or make it scale with effect hit rate. that way with 65% base chance to freeze he would be a good freezer
Crazy Idea? 1 Year ago peoples could never imagine the strongest DPS being a Nihility Character, USING CRIT
The current new event thingy has a stage where this 'dmg overflow' mechanic exists. Essentially, any excess damage on an already low hp target can cause a strong blast of dmg onto others. Through this, Hunt characters that may be overkill with their attacks can benefit from this heavily because any unnecessary damage can just be redirected onto other targets.
About his multipliers: Yanqing's A2 gives him a 30% multiplier on each attack, so 60% on skill + follow up, and also his unfreeze damage can be critical, so that's another 50% multiplier (maybe plus another 30%, but most likely not).
That is, this is already a 380% multiplier, which is 40% less than that of Dr. Ratio (and his attack stat is significantly higher even than Seele's)
If you add his e1 to this, you can get very high numbers.
But the randomness of his bonus attacks and the negative impact of taking damage kills the character
I have come from 9 days in the future to bring news of an apparently new endgame content that seems to be implied to be a boss rush for the hunt characters! Yanqing gonna return to his throne soon once more!
he needed aventurine almost a year ago.. ALSO! a hunt focuse moc/pure fiction. a gamemode focused on a very strong weeekly boss(or just geenerally beefed up regular bosses for earlier stages like swarm and argenti.) which would be amazing for hunt
even then, he still going to be powercrept by new units espexially the full fua team (ratio, topaz, advent, robin)
we already got a hunt focused moc with dr ratio release
tbh if they would buff yanqing directly that would fix all his problems and they only have to do that by fixing his talent so he gets those buffs as long as his hp stays above 50% so those who don't have gepard or won't have aventurine can still use him with a healer bc as we see in the video if you're paying attention to the combat yanqing his pretty broken if he takes no damage which is why aventurine is such a huge buff for him already but tbh i feel like needing a specific type of character is more of a crutch esp bc the only 4* option doesn't work for yanqing as march needs just as many skill points as he does ofc you could probably get away with it if march is e6 bc then you could use her as a healer for other allies and herself after getting hit but you'd have to make sure there's always a skill point for her to use on yanqing so he takes no damage and that he still has skill points too i know they won't ever buff a specific character directly like they did to zhongli unless the character causes as much outrage as zhongli but if they did yanqing is the top of the list of characters who badly need a buff to their actual kit bc team building is too restrictive and my yanqing collects dust since i don't have gepard and already chose to pull jingliu instead of aventurine (at least jingliu gives me a reason to build my bronya and lynx also gonna use asta until i get blade so i have a reason to build asta now too)
A simple fix that isn’t too strong is to have his follow up attack trigger 100% on every frozen enemy the allies attack, early players would benefit from building march 7th as a freeze bot and their new 5050 lost that way. Also change the chance to do follow up attacks on his turn from 60% to 100% if he isn’t attacked for 2 turns so he can benefit from bronya advance forward more
I actually want to play Yanqing. Not out of delusions that he's secretly the best DPS, but just because he's there. To explore an avenue of the game I've yet to take on.
When we go back to the Xianzhou storyline we'll get the true YanKing the first 6* character ( source : trust me bro) jokes aside they could do what they did with Danheng and make another version of him it's highly unlikely but i hope it happens
Aventurine is a huge Yanqing buff😊
Another reason Himeko may have pure fiction is because she could eventually get a 5 star limited version and if shes already good in PF ity would build up hype.
adventurine or any new preservation character they release in the future with consistent shields makes him playable because his passive is important for his damage.
A support that could be good for Yanking is like an opposite version of the Fire MC Taunt with Blast and AoE immunity (basically makes them concealed or repel damage to other allies)
Its basically just a Fu Xuan of sorts that takes the damage for Yanking fully instead, only applies to 1 target, in this case our yanking
Some goofy ahh buffs may include = if 100% HP, get more damage (cuz you don't get hit lmao), or the less you are hit, the more damage you do (over time, and stacks, so avoid getting hit or lose HP)
Honestly I have no idea if this would count as Harmony or Preservation, lol
aventurine is a yanqing buff in disguise
E2s2 yanqing haver here 💀
Good, you're ready for when he ascends to his final form YanKING and powercreeps the entire game.
BUILD HIM BUILD HIM BUILD HIM
Happy End: He's improved.
Bad End: He's deleted from existence.
True End: Don't.
Give my boy his signature set fr
I mean. A yq set would also just buff jl even more tho no? Unless its something like everyone needs to have full health for the bonus but that's just too annoying to be worth it.
That support you came up with at the end could be ever so slightly better. Instead of marking an enemy that when hit triggers damage to other enemies, have them give a shield to an ally and when that ally deals damage to a single target while shielded, the support deals the damage to the other enemies. This solves both of Yan's problems at the same time. Ooh, also make it function as a follow up attack and make them another Masked Fool like Sparkle since follow up attacks are AHA's thing in the Simulated Universe. But Preservation as their fake-Elation instead of Sparkle's Harmony
Spend 2k Jades to get timeskip yangqing.
I only have Yanqing, March and Herta with ice powers. So it doesn't matter if he's bad or not, I will be forced to build him if I want to break ice shields.
Now make one about Arlan
Imo if his ult buffs last forever or for somewhere around 3-4 turns he'd be a lot better than he already is
There was a fake leak about Sunday being a nihility unit who could mark enemies just like you described here 6:59
I would go even further and say I think if such a mark/debuff would have come, it can go the extra mile and it should spread debuffs and CCs as well. You then have Yanqing freeze enemies constantly and as a result we all get a new subdps/sustain hybrid like welt (arguably even better since freeze is op)
Unironically 7:00 that would be the best buff for hunt units especially if they make it to where only single target moves can proc it
An Emanator of the hunt with that "spread damage to other enemies" gimmick wouldbt be goated and finally end the slender against Hunt in general
6:58 there was already a turbulence like that last year but if a character could do that, it would be great.
He's the diluc of HSR
Actually in the new arcade event they added a mechanic in which excess single target damage does AoE after getting multiplied. This made characters like selee, Ratio, etc., a lot better, solving, imo, the main issue of the hunt path, affecting yanqing of course. This could be used in pure fiction.
Omg, imagine this. Yanqing is the traitor of The Family, and it was all a complicated disguise and he is going to get buffed by them. Therefore if Robin is a harmony that buffs Yanqing (Yanqing has FuA), Sunday is going to counter her and be nihility and his element is going to be ice because I willed it into existence.
We will have mono ice comp, and Sunday CAN ONLY BUFF YANQING. Yep, I’m on to something here.
Sunday is ice nihility that buffs Yanqing only. Run with Pela and Gerard.
Oh yeah. And when Sam drops he will actually do the melt reaction with Yanqing and since Yanqing will get a buff in the newest version where he unlocks his boss form and summons his sword which will apply cryo. Yanqing can also be run with Xiangling of course.
It all makes sense now. Yeppers. Overall these changes would be a Yan-WIN-g.
Maybe I shouldn’t type comments at 3 AM…. I might be a bit delirious
Freeze support maybe? He has some interactions with freeze, and such support would have synergy with March, Gepard and Misha, paired with Ruan Mei one could make solo sustain March or no sustain at all work, some bs like Ruan Mei-Welt.
And on top of all that, the freeze mechanic is very easy to shut down: they can simply put a some Cocolias and icebois on MoC or even better, the old "haha, this ice weak enemy has 300% CC resistance", and just sell the new nihility dps mommy afterwards.
It's a win-win-lose-win, we win, then they win, then we lose and they win, perfecly balanced and profitable, as all things should be.
Losing your buff the moment your HP goes down by 1 is a dealbreaker. He doesn't even have good uptime cos the buff lasts so short. He could literally have higher multipliers than Ratio and I'd still play Ratio.
didn't know Yanqing needed to be saved.
Glad this aged really well 🫂
Your damage spreading support sounds like an inverted Erudition Resonance, which is interesting. I wonder if more Follow-Up supports would be able to help Yanqing or not…?
A relic that makes dmg overflow of st attacks hit for an aoe around an enemy would make him useable but would also make seele broken lmao
Just add a support that has a similar passive as yanqing buffs damage but asoon as they take damage the buff goes away so it doesn't work on jing liu
i love this kid so much and have been playing with him for a while. I go into most fights with him and he was one of my first 5 stars. i've been playing since release and i think hoyo should treat him better. He is used in the story to make other characters look good (though this is addressed in an event) and he isn't that bad. I use a decent team with limited and standard characters and he does great. #stop yanqing abuse
one idea i had to make him usable while make it harder to use jingliu would be an enemy that summons adds/something targetable, but you can't hit them or else you get a penalty, may it be energy drain, a shit ton of damage, a stun or something
Just use dr.ratio even off element he would be better yanqing will likely never be viable
I believe his saving grace would be to make what makes him niche better, with both ascension and perhaps maybe eidolon. How? well, for his main niche it would his FUA, so it would be better if he had an increased FUA chance because it's damn low and no way to increase it ideally, and it sucks how he lost his buff when he gets attacked when nowadays bosses have an attack that attacks the whole team anyway
New gamemode with just bosses where Hunt units shine. Hmmm...
He either needs to be like Boss Yanqing or make him older. My Yanqing is impressive enough but doesn’t beat Jingliu… but if he uses the adult male model I would have use him a lot more just cause I would like looking at that a lot more than a child.
I don't know if he was ever "great" but his design is too cool to not get them buffs.
Bro predicted the new game mode
I don't know if I want them to buff him, I mean, sure, I have him E2 and it would be good if he became useful, but I have a lot of fun insulting him
This aged like a fine wine
Seems his only flaw is (cant always 0 cycle) if thats his only problem id say hes fine
Day 1 yanqing main here, hes been the reason i cleared every MOC since 1.0
They could do it like how himeko got "buffed" by the addition of pure fiction. they should make a hunt gamemode that works like pure fiction but its only bosses and they're tougher. it's not necessarily a buff per se but it would boost up his usage rates for sure. Seele wouldn't be great in there but whatever
This is an idea of mine for making hunt characters kinda op, just made a mode were is inverse of pure fiction, that penalices you for doing AOE damage, imagine a battle were there are 3 enemies, the big one and two eggs, if you touch the eggs they will deal insane ammounts of damage for your team, or heal the main boss to full or something like that.
+ I think even if he is from the standard pull he is the weakest of all of them, the worst part of him is not that he is needed to not be touched to do his job, is his slow start, his tecnique should give him his pasive activated from turn 1 (and for some reason they created a artifact that only works for him that is useles in everyone else to compensate this and is the Celestial Differentiator , i just dont get why they created somethin like this) + that follow atack being random just kills the character + needing the enemy to be frozen to deal more damage right now is just not posible.
AND hear me out , this is an awesome idea that can fix this character, just make the Celestial Differentiator, work like it is right now but add that every time you get hit(not damaged) this efect activates again, and GG, no DPS can use this artifact because its just too RNG and now you can build DPS tanks, and his main weakness is gone, so all valanced and they didnt need to buff a character.
I started a new account and got yanqing and bronya e1 with her lightcone. Honestly for early game? He’s very good obviously jingliu outdoes him since I’ve gotten her now but he has a capability to be so much better honestly.
I like to call him yanqiqi.
IF they buffed Yanqing into his Enhanced form instead, having multiple blades on his side litting him target which to strick, and his ult being a literal AOE instead of Single target, maybe he'll be fine
It seems his best team/comp today moving forward is dual dps with him as the main or sub (preferably main since he's hunt). But his best team( if you're Yanqing is E1, hoping I lose a 50/50 😂) if you want to main him is definitely: Ruan Mei/Sparkle, Misha, Yanqing, and Aventurine. Aventurine buffs Yanqing's already great self attained Crit Dmg, Runa Mei with Penacony set increases his dmg, and Misha who's the best freezer in the game with an E1 Yanqing can output his dmg further. Plus Yanqing is one of the few DPS who can hit 160 speed relatively ok. And has a good LC options with Ratio, Seele, and even Topaz. Sleep like the Dead is not his BiS.
Currently Yanqing actually isn't in that terrible of position as he has teams who are relatively standard cost( 2 5 stars who have immense pull value and are pretty universal, and a 4 star).
Just hoping I lose a 50/50 or snipe him off of Stellar Warp 😂
I've lost all my 50/50 to Yanqing , Even though i'm F2P , I have E5 Yanqing and his LC
Yanqing has been finally made viable with Aventurine, so there is some hope. Also they are planning on a new game mode that is against one big hp boss, so hey.
I wouldn’t call him particularly viable when he is completely outclassed by dr.ratio and most other good dps characters
lol the reverse robin
Idk where you got this idea that they profit more for more losses on 50/50s. Here are some facts to maybe help bridge this concept in marketing:
People dislike losing a lot more than they like winning.
A whale (someone without an upper limit to their game budget) doesn’t particularly care who they lost to, they want the E2/E6.
The 50/50 system is there to make it seem like there’s less swiping you’d need to do to get the character you wanted. Or more! They know what the average is, you don’t. The whale either keeps spending until they get the character, or they get lucky and get them early. Either way, they come back.
A free to play player is on their own a net loss to the company. But, their participation in the community alone is the only thing driving the social push for spending. When a free to play player loses a 50/50, the game doesn’t want you to feel like you gained nothing. That’s why you have good QoL coming out about all the standard characters consistently.
- Now, why do they still have Yanqing?
This is speculation territory, but Yanqing is very much a Qiqi-like situation. It’s very possible that the cultural phenomenon of losing to Qiqi is somehow provably profitable. They would know, anyway. Having one terrible 5* then probably helps boost overall sales just because people like the idea that they can lose to this character, it makes a social media post, etc.
MV buffers could also help
How yanqing cannot be saved
Jingliu whatever mode there is unless jingliu is nerfed or disabled(which will never happen) then yanqing will never be the best ice dps in any team or gamemode
he doesnt have to best to be good. he is standard banner character after all
Not to mention Yanqshit's eidolons are all useless except E6, so losing 50/50 to him gets more painful each time. While Welt (a different standard dps) at E1, after his ultimate, does 80% additional of his skill's multiplier while Yanqshit deals 60% of his atk (lvl 2 basic dmg lmfao) on a frozen enemy that is probably close to dying anyway because you have to either use gepard or march 7th to freeze outside a weakness break :)
I don't have E1 Welt but 80% of skill's dmg multiplier sounds more useful than a 60% of atk (Wow, his skill jumps from 220% to 280%!!! Still less than Welt's multipliers, counting welt's talent too.) Yanqshit's talent should activate BEFORE he attacks an enemy so his follow up actually makes a fucking difference. Hell, i won't complain if hoyo makes that single change into an entire eidolon. His E2 should have been a chance increase at triggering his follow-up attack from 50 -> 80-90% (who the fuck thought a 50% chance follow up attack that will only trigger on your NEXT turn because his talent only works after his skill was a good idea?) All in all, i wish i had E5 Bailu instead. I wish there was a way to refund because i trade E5 Yanqshit for a singular 4* eidolon in a heartbeat.
yeah, i'm mad for losing every 50/50 since release and losing it to yanqing :)
Hoyo can easily fix yanqing by removing the "loses his buff when attacked" gimmick, because that and his lack luster damage are the only 2 things that are genuinely making him the worst character in the entire funking game
No…BUT LIKE….WHY DOES HE HIT HARDER THEM MY DPS……EXCEPT JING AND ACHERON…..
FOR MY ACCOUNT HE HITS HARDER THEN MY DR RATIO, TOPAZ, KAFKA….WELT, AND MY JINGYUAN….
I DONT KNOW WHATS HAPPENING AND I DONT THINK IM PLAYING RIGHT IF HES THE WEAKEST 5 STAR…AND HE IS ONE OF MY STRONGEST☠️☠️☠️
Why do they need to save him, when they can just sell a new character who does everything better?
Just lost 50 50 on him
BUFF YUKONG
ufffff hahahaaaaaa
u can't save him
I have Yanking E1 😅
Yanqimg is my thjrteenth reason i HATE yanqing becayzw YANQING MADE MW LOSE MY 50/50 FOR JING YUAN I LOVE JING YUAN
YanKing mains gather here. haha.
My friends think im wack cuz im happy when i lose a 50/50 to yanking.
I feel obligated to find a way to use him cause he’s at E4 at this point 🥲
Aventurine saved his ass
As others also pointed out, id say Aventurin will really help this lil dude tremendously. Hell definitely be playable if not even pretty good. Well, well have to see, but ive got high hopes😁
they already pulled him up a tier in prydwen due to aventurine
but in my opinion if u have aventurine he nullifies yanqing low versatility and puts him on at least b tier, a tier in my opinion for moc
@@bandi642 If you build Aventurin like a DPS, you are completely right👍 But if you just want him as a defender, then hell be very good for our little dude😋
@@clashlabs8580 yeah u could have a spare def% relic in case u have bad luck with the shields
@@bandi642 and prydwen has moved him back down LOL. seriously even though aventurine fixed the shield issue theres still no reason to ever use yanqing over any other hunt unit (and jingliu who has almost the same kit design but improved)
@@curryfishheadenjoyer yeah cant defend my lil bro anymore he is cooked
You cant salvage multipliers since hoyo is iffy like that, one way i could see yanqing getting a massive buff which is making a harmony / nihility unit that buffs ehr / reduce effect res.
his follow up is theoretically pretty strong since if the freeze lands his skil ult multipliers goes up to 320% 450% respectively.
If they do end up tweaking him (copium) they should just do a minimal multiplier change and rework one of his traces so it buffs his FUA, something like “every 2 turn when hitting enemies with attack his FUA is guranteed to launch”
Yanqing following in the footsteps of Kingyuan 👑
I wish he gets to be known as Yanking to every other star rail player :)
The game mode for single targets doesn't have to be a boss fight, maybe a game mode where there are enemies on the stage that you have to kill but also enemies that if you *hit* would be detrimental to your score in some way
It’s definitely possible for such a mode, especially since there are now enemies that penalize AOE like the tv enemy
that wont be profitable to hoyo as then it would be only hunt centric and make all the other paths bad, as even tho in PF hunt is not that good it is still usable in later stages
Some remedies that could also help:
• New Preservation character thats single target shields, maybe even with *instances* of damage or reducing the shielded target’s aggro
• New relic that increases Crit dmg based and reduces self aggro based on speed scale, giving peak Hunt, but YQ is the only Hunt who boosts speed in buffed state
• Last one’s a little goofy, but a way to focus selection and boosted odds on beginning game 5 star characters. If they’re gonna get power crept, might as well make them easier to E6
I think I already have the last one cursing my account. First five star was Yanqing (got him on star rail's opening day on the beginner banner), I bought welkin and battlepass twice (that's it) and I have e4 yanqing+his lightcone. Worst part is he was the character I wanted to have most and I was so excited to get him at first, but when I got e2 I realized he was here to plague my account. the curse of Yanqing will not leave me😭😭
Nah just use March,aaggro problem? Just use tingyun, still aggro problem? Use gepard too.
so you’re suggest reverse march? i would bust if they do it as part of her 5 star kit
@@endlessagonyyyy I’d be surprised if her 5* version was preservation, but yeah I absolutely want a reverse march preservation. Maybe a “burst” like shield could be cool too, giving full and cleanse to your selected target and a little to those adjacent. Makes positioning strategic and acts as something that isn’t full protect
@@BestgirlJordanfish So like preservation huohuo then?
To answer the title, he doesn't need saving, you can just run him on an S5 Dr.Ratio lightcone making sure you're hitting 160 speed, like 85% CR and 250% CD with an E6S5 Sparkle, Ruan Mei, and Bronya or Robin, simple and very relatable
I cleared Moc full stars in moc with him from release, only in the last one and the other that just dropped I didn't use him cause I wanted to try my new units, but you can use him, the other 5 stars have more forgiving kits and are stronger but he is strong enough to clear the content (maybe don't use him in PF and u will b good 😮💨 still I like his design and attacks so I will be using him again tomorrow once I pull for aventurine 🎉
@@raquelg9575 oh yea i know he's usable but if you didnt have him built beforehand or if you're trying to 0 cycle something to show off or something then he's gonna need more investment than I think people would wanna give him
The design is very human
The design is very human
The design is very f2p friendly
i really want a character that could link damage. Maybe 50% from the main target. Imagine how op that could be with hunt characters
his technique shouldve just gave him a stack on the start of the battle
aventurine will be here to save the goat yanKING
with PF it meant to address Erudition as a whole not just Himeko. Erudition while not unplayable and definitely viable in MOC, their niche of hitting the entire screen AREN'T NEEDED(THE BEST Erudition unit like Jing Yuan and Argenti. they are AOE character that has something in their kit to scale their damage for ST scenario) if you have a better option(like limited 5 stars destruction unit) and Blast type is already enough to cover MOC content. there is like a small amount of boss or match up that really calls for their AOE at that time it was "why Erudition exist at all".
I'm almost at e6 from lost rolls and the worst is that his e6 is pretty terrible. It's not as awful as himeko's but pretty bad when compared to welt
I remember back in genshin qiqi used to be one of the good healers and now she is pretty much replaceable. Funny how both are ice characters
Chat, are we seeing the rise of a new cc?
5:27 well Yukong buffs imaginary dmg, and Sparkle buffs attack based on how many quantum allies you have in the team.
jingliu is really yanqing max pro ;-;
anyway the only thing i think he needs is lower energy cost. that would honestly fix a lot ngl.
been here since hsr day 1, got bailu as my free 5*, lost my seele 50/50 to yanqing
my favorite character is now yanqing, i built him so well he carries my account, it was a happy accident and i don't regret a thing :)
Make it so that his Talent occurs after every hit when he is in his buffed state. Also when the enemy is killed and the Talent has yet to trigger, it hits another enemy or perhaps gives a crit damage buff.
100% mirror damage is too much, but that’s something Hoyoverse will do for sure 5 star ice nihility maybe?
