CRIT Rate / CRIT DMG

Yanfei's A4 being reliant on a Crit hit makes her ideal Crit Ratio skew toward 3:4 and 3:5 instead of the standard 1:2.
This is because Yanfei's damage output is heavily influenced by her Crit hits, making a higher Crit Ratio more desirable for her build.
To achieve this, players can focus on building Yanfei with CRIT percentage-increasing artifacts and weapons, such as the Crit-oriented Artifact sets.
Some possible Artifact sets for Yanfei include:

  • Shimenawa's Reminiscence for its CRIT percentage bonus
  • Emblem of Severed Fate for its Energy Recharge bonus to support Yanfei's Elemental Burst
