Yvonne

early game dps

dpssingle_targetcryocrit

Rated as a top-tier 6-Star striker built entirely around deleting one target at a time. Her Ultimate-driven burst makes her one of the strongest single-target damage dealers available, and with heavy investment she can sweep RE-Crisis bosses for trimmed medals with little effort.

A straightforward leveling build for Yvonne while resources are tight. Wedge provides Crit and Arts damage so her Basics and Ultimate still hit respectably, and Mordvolt Insulation layers on flat Intellect plus an Arts damage bonus she can keep active by staying healthy. It is not meant to be permanent: the point is to bridge the early progression window around level 15 to 30 and then transition into the MI Security endgame setup. Howling Guard can substitute if Wedge is not owned, though it is the weaker option.

Insights

Core Mechanics

Yvonne's kit centers on Solidification: her Battle Skill consumes Cryo or Nature Infliction stacks to force Solidification and refunds Ultimate Energy based on how many stacks were eaten.
Landing a Final Strike on a Solidified enemy triggers her Combo Skill, which summons Frost-e-Bytee to pull enemies together, chip them with periodic Cryo hits, and reapply Solidification on expiry.
Her Ultimate deploys Tink-a-Bella and swaps her into enhanced Basic Attacks, granting stacking Crit Rate and a Crit DMG payoff at max stacks, then finishing with a large Cryo Final Strike.

Scaling

Her damage profile rewards Intellect, Crit, Cryo DMG, Basic Attack DMG, and raw ATK, so she keeps improving as gear and investment climb.
She scales especially hard late because her Ultimate multipliers and self-buffs compound with high Crit investment.
Her real ceiling depends on the team supplying Cryo Infliction, which doubles her Freezing Point Crit DMG bonus and lets her chain Solidification.

Team Role

Yvonne fills the dedicated single-target DPS slot and is usually played as the controlled operator so you can steer her Final Strikes and Ultimate windows precisely. She wants teammates that apply Cryo Infliction or other Arts debuffs, since those unlock Solidification through her Battle Skill and double the Crit DMG she gains from Freezing Point. Typical comps pair her with Cryo appliers and buffers that amplify her Cryo output, while a defender or support holds the line during her Ultimate channel. Positioning matters less than timing: she should be steered onto the priority target once it is Staggered and Solidified, because that is when her Ultimate and Frost-e-Bytee damage overlap most efficiently. Outside of those windows she contributes steady Basic Attack pressure rather than area coverage.

Explanation

Wedge is the early pick because it hands over Crit stats and Arts DMG that suit her scaling.

Mordvolt Insulation adds Intellect directly and boosts Arts damage while her HP stays high, matching how she deals damage.

This setup is meant for roughly levels 15 to 30 before swapping into a stronger endgame gear set.

Notes

Wedge supplies Crit and Arts damage, which is plenty while leveling.
Howling Guard works as a filler option if nothing better is available, though its base stats are low.
Mordvolt Insulation's Intellect bonus plus its Arts DMG effect carry her until a stronger set is farmed.
