Yvonne delivers exceptional single-target damage, especially through her enhanced Basic Attacks during her Ultimate. She can trivialize RE-Crisis bosses with high investment. Her self-buffs and Solidification synergy further boost her damage, making her a top-tier DPS.
endgame dps single_targetcryocritlate_game
This endgame build focuses on maximizing Yvonne's single-target DPS by stacking Critical Rate, ATK, and Cryo DMG. Artzy Tyrannical and MI Security set provide the best stat synergy, while the rotation relies on applying Solidification and unleashing her enhanced Basic Attacks for massive damage.

Explanation
The weapon choice is driven by Yvonne's scaling with Intellect and Critical Rate. Artzy Tyrannical offers the best synergy, followed by Navigator (battlepass weapon) and the more accessible Wedge.
MI Security set is chosen because Yvonne can easily trigger its stacking Critical Rate and ATK effect through her fast Basic Attack sequences, substantially increasing her overall DPS.
For stat priority, maximize Critical Rate first to enable consistent crits, then ATK%, Intellect, and Cryo DMG to amplify her damage output.
Notes
- Artzy Tyrannical is the top weapon because it perfectly matches Yvonne's need for Cryo DMG, Intellect, and Critical stats.
- MI Security gear set provides up to 25% ATK and 10% Critical Rate with its stacking buff, synergizing with Yvonne's rapid Basic Attacks during her Ultimate.
- Consider an off-piece like Pulser Labs Gloves for a strong Cryo DMG boost.
early game dps beginnerf2pearly_game
This early-game build uses Wedge and the Mordvolt Insulation gear set to give Yvonne a solid foundation in Intellect, Critical Rate, and Arts DMG. It is easy to assemble and will carry you through the initial content until you transition to her endgame setup.

Explanation
In the early game, Wedge is the best easily obtainable weapon due to its Critical Rate and Arts DMG stats, aligning with Yvonne's needs. Howling Guard is a fallback if Wedge is unavailable.
Mordvolt Insulation set is recommended because it provides a significant Intellect boost and an Arts DMG buff that activates reliably early on, helping Yvonne's damage until you can farm the MI Security set.
Notes
- Wedge is a solid early-game weapon that boosts Critical stats and Arts DMG, making it a good budget option until you obtain Artzy Tyrannical.
- Howling Guard offers Intellect and ATK boosts, but its lower base stats make it a second choice.
- Mordvolt Insulation set gives +50 Intellect and up to 20% Arts DMG when HP is above 80%, which is easy to maintain early on.
Build Insights
Yvonne functions as a hypercarry single-target DPS. She thrives when supported by operators who can apply Cryo Infliction or Arts debuffs, enabling her Solidification loop. In team comps, she is the main controlled operator, using her Ultimate to tear through high-HP enemies while allies provide buffs or crowd control.
Core Mechanics
- Ultimate: Cryoblasting Pistolier transforms Yvonne's Basic Attacks, granting increasing Critical Rate and Critical DMG with each hit. The final strike deals massive Cryo DMG.
- Solidification combo: Use Battle Skill Brr-Brr-Bomb β to consume Arts Infliction stacks and force Solidification. This triggers Combo Skill Flashfreezer υ37 after a Final Strike, deploying a bot that groups and re-applies Solidification.
- Talent Barrage of Technology speeds up the rotation by making the next Basic Attack a Final Strike after applying Solidification. Talent Freezing Point increases Critical DMG against enemies with Cryo Infliction or Solidification.
Scaling
- Scales primarily with Intellect, Critical Rate, Critical DMG, and Cryo DMG bonuses.
- Early investment in Talents provides a large power spike; late-game damage scales heavily with weapon refinements and optimized gear.
- Team synergy matters – having allies that apply Cryo Infliction or debuffs enables faster Solidification and higher burst windows.
Character Notes
Yvonne is a 6-star Cryo Striker who excels at single-target DPS. Her kit revolves around applying Solidification to enemies, then activating her Ultimate to enter an enhanced state where her Basic Attacks deal massive damage and self-buff Critical Rate. She is best played as the controlled operator with a team that supports her Cryo and Arts synergy. Her high damage ceiling makes her a premier boss killer.
Playstyle
- Use Battle Skill Brr-Brr-Bomb β to force Solidification on enemies affected by Cryo or Nature Infliction. This also refunds Ultimate Energy.
- Perform a Final Strike on a Solidified enemy to trigger Combo Skill Flashfreezer υ37, which groups enemies and reapplies Solidification.
- Activate Ultimate Cryoblasting Pistolier and spam Basic Attacks to stack Critical Rate. Aim to activate this when enemies are Staggered and Solidified for maximum damage.
- Position yourself to maintain the 80% HP threshold if using Mordvolt Insulation set early game, or to stay safe during the Ultimate’s vulnerability window.
Strengths
- Exceptionally high single-target damage, among the best in the game.
- Self-buffs Critical Rate and Critical DMG during Ultimate, reducing reliance on external buffs.
- Solidification loop provides consistent crowd control and damage amplification.
- Synergizes well with many Cryo and Arts supports.
Weaknesses
- Requires careful setup (applying Infliction stacks, landing Final Strike) to maximize output.
- Vulnerable during her Ultimate if not protected, as she is locked in place and can be targeted.
- Less effective against multiple enemies due to her single-target focus.
- High investment in gear and weapons is needed to reach her full potential.
Team Guide
best cryo_team
Yvonne's premier Solidification team focuses on triggering Cryo and Nature Infliction to apply Solidification, enabling her powerful buffs. Xaihi provides party-wide buffs and off-field healing, while Gilberta debuffs enemies and groups them together, amplifying Yvonne's damage. Tangtang contributes AoE crowd-control and additional Cryo Infliction, ensuring Yvonne can safely execute her full Ultimate combo without interruption.
Explanation
Xaihi's Auxiliary Crystal buffs all allies and offers consistent healing, making the team durable.
Gilberta channels her skill to gather enemies and applies Nature Infliction, setting up Solidification with Yvonne's skill.
Tangtang uses her Ultimate to freeze enemies in place, creating the perfect moment for Yvonne's devastating Ultimate.
All three supports apply debuffs (Arts Susceptibility, Nature Infliction) that stack multiplicatively with Yvonne's own damage bonuses.
Strengths
- Extremely high single-target and AoE damage during Yvonne's Ultimate window.
- Strong crowd-control chain from Tangtang's Ultimate and Solidification stuns.
- Xaihi's healing ensures survivability even in prolonged encounters.
- Synergy between Gilberta's gather and Yvonne's AoE attacks maximizes hit counts.
Weaknesses
- Heavily dependent on applying Solidification; if the combo is disrupted, damage output drops significantly.
- Requires specific 5-star characters (Gilberta, Tangtang) for optimal performance, limiting accessibility.
- Yvonne's Ultimate has a high energy cost, and the team lacks a dedicated battery.
Rotation
- 1 Start combat by activating Xaihi's and Gilberta's support skills to set up the Auxiliary Crystal and begin channeling Nature Infliction.
- 2 Perform a Final Strike with Yvonne, then use her Battle Skill immediately after Gilberta applies Nature Infliction to trigger Solidification and gain Ultimate energy.
- 3 Once Solidification is applied, land a basic attack that instantly transitions into a Final Strike due to Yvonne's talent; use Xaihi's Ultimate if available.
- 4 Cast Yvonne's Combo Skill to reapply Solidification, then trigger Xaihi's Combo Skill to add a Cryo Infliction stack.
- 5 Activate Tangtang's Combo Skill, then immediately use her Battle Skill to inflict Arts Susceptibility on all enemies.
- 6 Use Tangtang's Ultimate to crowd-control the enemies, cast Yvonne's Ultimate for massive damage, and finish with a Dive Attack to trigger Tangtang's Riot Bringer talent.
Apply buffs → Set up Solidification with Gilberta/Yvonne → Weave in Xaihi's Combo for Cryo → Tangtang debuffs → Tangtang Ultimate freeze → Yvonne Ultimate.
elemental cryo_team
This team maximizes Yvonne's Ultimate uptime by stacking multiple Cryo Inflictions. Last Rite and Fluorite provide abundant Cryo applications, which Yvonne consumes with her skill to rapidly gain energy. Xaihi supplies buffs and sustain, while Last Rite's freeze offers crowd control, enabling frequent and safe Ultimate uses.
Explanation
Each stack of Cryo Infliction consumed by Yvonne's Battle Skill grants energy, dramatically reducing Ultimate cooldown.
Last Rite's Combo Skill can freeze enemies, and its delayed consumption allows Yvonne to steal all Cryo stacks for herself.
Xaihi provides the team-wide ATK buff and healing, ensuring Yvonne stays alive and deals more damage.
Fluorite adds extra Cryo Infliction and synergy, making the team very consistent at applying and consuming Cryo.
Strengths
- Extremely high Ultimate uptime for Yvonne, allowing multiple casts per fight.
- Solid crowd-control from Last Rite’s freeze and Yvonne’s Solidification.
- All characters are relatively accessible (Xaihi and Fluorite are not limited 5-stars).
- Excellent sustained damage pattern with little downtime.
Weaknesses
- No dedicated Nature applicator, so Solidification only comes from Yvonne consuming 4 Cryo stacks.
- Requires precise timing to ensure Yvonne’s skill hits before Last Rite’s Combo trigger.
- Lacks the massive debuff stacking of burst-oriented teams, so peak damage is lower.
Rotation
- 1 Activate Xaihi's and Last Rite's support skills to prepare the Auxiliary Crystal and gain Hypothermic Perfusion.
- 2 Perform a Final Strike with Yvonne, then recast Last Rite's support skill to obtain a second Hypothermic Perfusion buff.
- 3 Execute another Final Strike with Yvonne, followed by Xaihi's Combo Skill and then Fluorite's Combo Skill to apply more Cryo stacks.
- 4 Use Xaihi's Ultimate when available, then trigger Last Rite's Combo Skill to apply Cryo Infliction and freeze.
- 5 Cast Yvonne's Battle Skill before Last Rite's Combo Skill consumes Cryo, so Yvonne absorbs all 4 stacks and triggers Solidification.
- 6 After Solidification, perform a basic attack that instantly becomes a Final Strike, then use Yvonne's Combo Skill.
- 7 Finish with Yvonne's Ultimate; her Combo Skill from the previous step can reapply Solidification to prolong the stun.
Xaihi/Last Rite buffs → Yvonne Final Strike ×2 → Xaihi/Fluorite Combo → Last Rite Combo → Yvonne skill to consume 4 Cryo → Yvonne Combo/Ultimate.
alternative burst_team
A burst-oriented setup that stacks multiple debuffs to greatly amplify Yvonne's Ultimate damage. Gilberta and Perlica apply Corrosion and Electrification, while Xaihi buffs Yvonne. Although Cryo Infliction is low, the combined debuffs and Xaihi's support result in devastating Ultimate hits, ideal for eliminating priority targets quickly.
Explanation
Gilberta’s Battle Skill channels while gathering enemies and inflicts Nature, enabling a quick Solidification with Yvonne.
Perlica’s Combo Skill applies Electrification, and Gilberta’s Ultimate adds Corrosion, stacking multiple vulnerability types.
Xaihi’s Auxiliary Crystal and Ultimate boost Yvonne’s ATK significantly, compounding with the debuffs.
The team sacrifices Ult uptime for peak burst damage, so timing all abilities around Yvonne’s Ultimate is critical.
Strengths
- Massive burst damage capable of one-shotting elite enemies or bosses.
- Multiple debuff layers (Corrosion, Electrification, Arts Susceptibility) drastically lower enemy defenses.
- Gilberta’s gathering ability ensures Yvonne’s Ultimate hits all targets.
- Xaihi provides both offensive buffs and healing, covering sustain.
Weaknesses
- Low Cryo and Nature Infliction means Yvonne’s Ultimate charges slowly, leading to downtime.
- Requires precise setup; missing a debuff sequence cuts damage significantly.
- Very dependent on limited 5-stars (Gilberta, Perlica), making it less accessible.
- Struggles if enemies cannot be grouped or if the burst window is interrupted.
Rotation
- 1 Cast Xaihi's Battle Skill to create the Auxiliary Crystal for team buffs.
- 2 Use Gilberta's Battle Skill to start channeling and pull enemies together.
- 3 Complete a Final Strike with Yvonne to consume a crystal charge; activate Xaihi's Ultimate if available.
- 4 After Gilberta applies Nature Infliction, cast Yvonne's Battle Skill to consume it and trigger Solidification.
- 5 Perform another Final Strike with Yvonne, then trigger Perlica's Combo Skill to apply Electrification.
- 6 Activate Gilberta's Combo Skill, then her Ultimate to inflict Corrosion; do a Final Strike with Yvonne, then her Combo Skill.
- 7 Unleash Yvonne's Ultimate while the enemy is suffering from Electrification, Corrosion, Solidification, and Arts Susceptibility.
Xaihi buff → Gilberta gather/Nature → Yvonne Final Strike → Yvonne skill Solidification → Perlica Combo Electrification → Gilberta Combo/Ult Corrosion → Yvonne Combo → Yvonne Ultimate.
f2p f2pbeginnerlow_investment
A completely free-to-play friendly team using easily obtainable characters. Snowshine offers free sustain and Cryo Infliction, while Estella or Fluorite provides additional Cryo stacks. Alesh serves as a SP battery to help Yvonne charge her Ultimate faster. The team relies on consistent Solidification to enable Yvonne's damage, making it a solid choice for early game content.
Explanation
Snowshine is a free character who heals and applies Cryo Infliction, fitting the sustain role perfectly.
Estella’s Battle Skill applies Cryo Infliction quickly, allowing Yvonne to trigger Solidification early.
Alesh regenerates SP, helping Yvonne reach her costly Ultimate more frequently despite the lack of high-rarity supports.
The team is highly accessible and can be assembled without any gacha luck, ideal for new players.
Strengths
- Completely free-to-play, all characters are available through story progression or standard pulls.
- Sufficient Cryo application to maintain Solidification uptime for Yvonne.
- Snowshine provides reliable healing and off-field support.
- Alesh’s SP generation smooths out energy requirements.
Weaknesses
- Lower damage ceiling compared to premium teams due to fewer debuffs and buffs.
- Less crowd-control, making Yvonne’s Ultimate vulnerable to interruption.
- Estella’s Cryo application has a cooldown, so Solidification uptime can be inconsistent.
- No Nature applicator means Solidification relies solely on 4 Cryo stacks, which can be slow.
Rotation
- 1 Open with Estella's Battle Skill to apply Cryo Infliction on enemies.
- 2 Use Yvonne's Battle Skill to consume Cryo and apply Solidification; perform a Final Strike before the effect shatters to save her Combo Skill.
- 3 Activate any available team buffs or enemy debuffs (e.g., Snowshine’s Ult), then cast Yvonne's Combo Skill.
- 4 Immediately after Yvonne's Combo Skill, unleash her Ultimate while the enemy is still frozen for maximum damage.
- 5 Repeat the cycle, using Alesh's skills for SP recovery and Snowshine for sustain as needed.
Estella Cryo → Yvonne Solidification → Final Strike → Buffs → Yvonne Combo → Yvonne Ultimate → Repeat.
Team Insights
Yvonne excels as a main DPS who leverages Solidification—a reaction of Cryo and Nature—to greatly enhance her damage and accelerate her Ultimate. Team building around her focuses on ensuring a steady supply of Cryo and Nature Infliction, alongside supports who can buff her stats, debuff enemy resistances, and provide crowd control to create safe windows for her long Ultimate animation. Battery characters can further speed up her rotation, making her one of the premier carry options when properly supported.
Synergy Patterns
- Pairing Yvonne with consistent Cryo applicators (Tangtang, Fluorite, Estella) and a Nature inflictor (Gilberta) allows frequent Solidification triggers.
- Xaihi's Auxiliary Crystal provides party-wide ATK buffs and off-field healing, making her a staple in most Yvonne teams.
- Crowd-control from Tangtang's Ultimate or Last Rite's freeze ensures enemies are locked down during Yvonne's Ultimate cast.
- SP batteries like Alesh or Akekuri help Yvonne reach her high Ultimate cost faster, especially in low-investment teams.
- Gilberta's gathering ability and Nature Infliction synergize perfectly with Yvonne's AoE Ultimate and Solidification needs.
Tips
- Always try to have Solidification active before pressing Yvonne's Ultimate to maximize the damage bonus from her Freezing Point talent.
- In the Burst team, stack all debuffs (Corrosion, Electrification, Arts Susceptibility) just before Yvonne's Ultimate for peak damage.
- In F2P teams, manage Snowshine's healing and Estella's Cryo infliction cooldowns to maintain Solidification uptime.
- When using Last Rite, time Yvonne's Battle Skill to consume Cryo stacks before Last Rite's Combo Skill triggers, ensuring Yvonne gets all the energy.
- Place Yvonne before buffers in the team selection to apply Inflictions before her Combo Skill and maximize her talent procs.
