If you want Yangyang to be more damage-oriented, give her a 5 pc. Sierra Gale to increase her Aero DMG. Using this set, however, will lessen the buffs given to Yangyang's teammate, considering Yangyang only gives ER buffs with no DMG increases.

Best Teams for Yangyang

Yangyang Early Game Team

This team composition revolves around Yangyang feeding Energy using her Outro Skill to Rover (Spectro) to charge their Resonance Liberation. With this being an early-game team comp, Baizhi will be the team's healer and also buff the team's damage. Celestial Light is recommended as an early game option, but is better replaced with the Eternal Radiance set for Rover (Spectro) as you progress through the game.

Yangyang starts the battle and charges her Concerto Energy until the other character's Resonator icons glow up. She can use her Liberation to group up small enemies and quickly use her Resonance Skill to damage the enemies before swapping out., Once Rover (Spectro) is fully charged, you can switch to them so they can use their Intro Skill, dealing some Spectro DMG. Switching from Yangyang to the Rover (Spectro) will restore their Resonance Energy., Once Rover (Spectro)'s Resonance Liberation can be used, cast it to dish out some AoE Spectro DMG. Then, follow it up with some Basic Attack to charge their Forte Gauge, use their Resonance Skill, and do a couple of Basic Attacks after., Switch to Yangyang again once the Intro Skill has fully charged up. If you need healing, switch to your Baizhi and use their healing skill for some healing., Repeat the steps until all enemies are defeated!
